Hey guys,I'm considering buying battlefield 4 and i would like to a have a question answered if you can.I do not have a dvd drive and buying the game from a local store here is cheaper than origin(found limited edition for 30 euros).Now my question is,does the dvd that they are selling in the shop have a key in it so I can activate and download it from origin?I wanna be sure before ordering the game.

Yes if it is a brand new copy it should have a key included, but please dont take my word.

Yup. Thats how I have bought all my BF games. BF3 was installed from disc since Origin didn't yet allow just entering code. BF4 was enter code&dl style since my dl speed is faster than dvd read speed.

(If you've had a YT channel for longer than 3 months)

You could try winning a copy before you buy it.

Currently active comp from a youtuber I watch.

Nevermind,I have already ordered the game and I think the giveaway requires to have some videos too on my channel which i have none.However,thanks a lot for the suggestion.From what I saw there aren't many participants.

You lucky.....

I downloaded it at a speed of 120kB/s...

Damn,I thought I had a bad internet connection.Isn't your speed affecting your multiplayer gameplay?

Um, nope.. Well in Pakistan we get speeds like these and it is normal. I was a COD 4 player and we had local servers. I got 60-80 ping on the servers which were hosted in my city. But there is no custom hosting in Battlefield 4 so, I have to play on german servers with a ping of 180-210. So I know nothing but lag. :D

But still I get good scores and people get beaten by a high pinger :P
