Best store (physical or online) to pre-order?

[GrumpyHitler]

Hey, so as you know it isn't looking like Steam will be able to provide BF3 for us;

So I was wondering the best store to pre-order it from.

I was thinking Playtech but I've heard good things about Mightyape, don't really want to purchase it from Ea origins...

Any other ideas?

any bad experiences with mightyape?


Thanks


*Gah hard copy! that'll be my first hard copy game since crysis

[Dr Woomanchu]

I've preordered through EB Games. I suppose it will come down to whether there is any price variation across stores, to which one will get it to you first :D

[Machpants]

Mightyape ship it so it arrives 7am on the release day, EBgames you can often pick it up at midnight and playtech you just get it whenever IME

Hmmm thanks, mightyape is starting to sound good :D

[Emrico1]

I might go into the local EB and give it a preorder eventually... Shame about steam :/

This.

If you can get it from a local EB, do it.

Failing this, MightyApe are great.

[3viction]

Ordered BC2 from here and got it on release day. Cheaper than all the others too.

[Plasma]

I'll be ordering from MA. Closest EB near work is in Hornby mall and I try to avoid that place.

[RICOBOY]

Got an email from EA NZ for Origin (EA Games store) allows you to pre-order with 50% off

http://store.origin.com/store/eaapac/en_NZ/html/pbPage.battlefield3_NZ/

Use the promo code in the email and i can get 50% off...

Anyone else get this?

[Emrico1]

I got that email too and assumed the offer didn't include Bf2... Might have to have another look...

[Lias]

I tried.. code didnt work for BF3.. Fuck you origin.

*note* the small print does say "Select titles" so I'd assume anything thats 2 years old :-P

[GhostOfGallipoli]

OK, so hopefully I can comment here without certain members getting their panties wadded....


EB will be having midnight releases pretty much across the board
http://content.ebgames.co.nz/website/images/detail/153116_detail.jpg
we have both the return to karkand DLC voucher AND the exclusive physical warfare DLC
Limited Edition Physical Warfare Pack content includes:

* Battlefield 3 game
* Battlefield 3 Steelbook
* Expansion pack - Back to Karkand
* TYPE 88 Light Machine Gun DLC
* DAO - 12 shotgun DLC
* Flechette ammo for the DAO-12 shotgun
* Flash Suppressor for SKS Sniper Rifle DLC


if you have console games to trade, you get an extra 50% trade value if you trade towards a pre-order
game will be $99 on PC, which is EA's RRP

/blatant plug out - but hey, the more you know....

[Lyesalot]

It might be a blatant plug out but it's exactly what I wanted to know

[Retardobot]

Just pre-ordered online.

$10.

Failed to uncheck shipping option. Hopefully EB are able to change my order to exclude shipping.

[5loth]

Do you only get the Physical Warfare DLC if you buy the Physical Warfare Pack (which is around $120 iirc?)

Does the $99 Limited Edition from EB offer anything over the $89 LE from MightyApe/Playtech?

A friend of mine asked his local EB about the differences between versions and they weren't sure, so I told him to give EB Johnsonville a call and they might know.

They weren't sure but got back to him and said the Physical Warfare Pack was $120. But now looking on the site its only $99.99

So is there a further pack that costs $120 with extra things?

Console version is $120.

[5loth]

He was asking about the PC version, but they may have got confused.

[Speakman]

could be $99 for preorder, $120 after release

[mattnz]

I've never seen a PC game over $100 tbh.

[5loth]

plenty of the bundle packages that come out with additional items (such as the Physical Warfare Pack) have cost > $100.

[NZGramps]

Console version is $120.

Suck it consoles!!

have preordered through EB

[Lias]

http://www.cdwow.co.nz/games/battlefield-3-limited-edition-pc/dp/21464531#bc=f9a1

NZD$71 inc delivery.

[KiwiTaZ]

I ordered BC2 via EA downlaoder (now origin) and got it 48 hours before it was ment to be released.
You can keep your midnight / 7am releases. Ea will always look after EA customers first. (and its only $90 for preorder)
from what I see the "exclusive" physical warfare DLC isnt that exclusive. looks like veryone who preorders will get it.

[Codex]

^Correct


the exclusive physical warfare DLC
Exclusive in terms of only for pre-order but this content will unlock for free later on anyway:


A point of clarification for all of our Battlefield fans. We will unlock the contents of the Physical Warfare Pack to all Battlefield 3 players later this year – for free.
http://bit.ly/oS4qAv

When I asked local EB they had no idea about any other dlc packs and barely knew what was with this one lol.

all preorders include return to karkand DLC voucher AND physical warfare DLC

Will be picking up midnight at EB, and taking the next day off.

Jizz in my fucking pants.

This is gonna be cool.

Pre-ordered this arvo for $99 from EB. Up until this point I've not got my hopes up, but now I've pre-ordered I can't wait.

[middlefinger]

Pre-ordered at Noel Leeming this time for $99.Got bfbc2 from Mighty Ape last time and it turned up 4 days late ,Had to take another week of work ,,

[Spacemonkey]

І Я excited. I'll probably get a pre-order from the store. I'd consider steam, but I have a felling the price will be about the same anyways.

Pre-ordered mine from EB about a month or so ago, before any expansion/Limited Edition packs had been confirmed, didn't care though, traded in a few games and that paid off $35 of it already, must steal the girlfriend's old ps2 games for more trade-ins haha

[solman]

Asked the wife to pre-order from EB for me when she was going into town this morning..... her reply, oh didn't I tell you, I pre-ordered it 2 weeks ago....

maybe you can change it here;

http://www.ebgames.co.nz/contact.aspx

or, perhaps they ask you to nominate a store for pickup when you make final payment?

failing that;
0800 EBGAMES (3242637)

[zolteg]

So I take it yer having a midnight release Ghost...?

If they do, anyone else pickin' up from J'Ville? Mebbe have some pre-release ales somewhere close first.

Midnight launch at the Hutt?

Midnight launch at the Hutt?

probably a combined one between the gamesman lower hutt (my new store) and the very close by queensgate EB, but yet to be confirmed

Still $15 cheaper than any other kiwi brick and mortar retailer (if you factor in postage)

[Craig]

And pick up at midnight too. Might have to pull a sicky.

[O-L-W-A-G]

Well the free BF3 I get will be from the EADM, so I'm gonna pre-order the hardcopy due to how long it will take to download being in NZ and take good chunk outta the data cap which could be used for actually playing the game

[middlefinger]

pull a sicky ,lol ,,take the week of ,i have

Ok, so the deal with EB Games pre-order if you make it online is;

The option to pick it up in store instead of having it shipped out was never available (I thought I remember avoiding any shipping options). It defaults to shipping because that's all is available.

Apparently the option to pick it up in store when pre-ordering online is going live tomorrow. If you --like me-- have already pre-ordered online and are stuck with having it shipped out then you are able to (as suggested by Ghost) to call 0800 EB Games. They'll be able to cancel your pre-order and re-do it with the option of picking it up in store.

Wouldn't waste my time getting hardware from MA, they are only really good for games and dvds. For hardware I order the majority from Playtech and the odd bit from Ascent.
I have had issues before with the courier company Playtech uses, they are fairly useless at next day delivery. So I was always planning on buying from it MA.

It's offical, BF3 isnt coming to Steam:

[BushySB]

Lolz all the people saying they wont buy it if it isint on steam. Way to fuckin picky imo

[GhostOfGallipoli]

fuck off dude, seriously, just climb off my nuts.

I don't "advertise" - people want to know about something , I'll tell them because I have that info. I'm not doing sales, I'm just getting info out there - people here can preorder or buy from who ever they like, no skin off my nose. but I like to think I am a valuable source of info for everyone here, especially since I work for the biggest games retailer in NZ, people are coming to me for info all the time, so some here appreciate it.

It's clear you either dont like me, or EB, even going as far as to drag arsey into something that wasn't an issue for him by firing complaints around. just drop it.

you pretend that you're concerned that me mentioning and EB deal every once in a while is going to end up with playtech pulling their support? I send customers to both playtech AND the ON3 servers, I support this org as much as anyone does.

my initial comment was based over the fact that someone on these forums took playtechs excellent offer, knowing that they are a sponsor & supporter of ON3, and did a pricematch with a non supporting e-retailer. I thought that was shitty, said so, and you got confused because I wasn't saying something about EB & blew a gasket

[Codex]

Yes, very admirable. He only advertises here on Mondays.
Settle petal. If he was blatantly advertising then there would be giant eb logos everywhere around his posts with links to buy now blah blah blah.

People ask for information, he has it. He happily provides the information, god forbid Ghost wants to be useful so calm down. No one is making you read his posts or buy from eb. Don't like it? Don't read.

Such a dickhead move, they fail to mention that the 'restrictions' are actually beneficial to the users, not so much the retailer. Instead they have picked up the attitude that if it doesn't suit them it doesn't suit anyone. Too hard backet scenario.

[pyro]

Not sure why steam users are kicking up such a stink, is it really that much of an issue to just buy a hardcopy of the game if they are against using another digital source? People saying shit like "I cant believe I'm saying this but looks like I'm getting MW3" are fucking idiots. This change takes nothing away from the game, and if you believe otherwise clearly you were never that interested in the actual game in the first place.

[BushySB]

Cant you just add non-steam games anyway? so it makes no difference apart from you dont have to dl the original game

I can understand why people are getting upset.

Having 2 separate game libraries is a hassle and a lot of people prefer their games via digital distribution.

If I was a fan of DD - having to have 2 separate programs that governed my gaming library would be a royal pain in the dickhole.

So people will sacrifice what could potentially be the game of the year because it can't be sourced on steam, and a hard copy well thats just annoying to have.......Anyone saying they wont be buying the game for that reason alone is just looking for something to have a bitch about and most likely wasn't that interested in the game in the first place.

I understand it could be annoying but its no reason not to buy what could and should be the greatest game this year.

[Spork]

Has anyone (here) said that they aren't buying the game simply because of this? Fuck that, I'll be buying pretty well no matter what.

[Lias]

I already have games across 3 platforms (Steam, Impulse, GFWLiveMarketplace).. Fucked if I'm adding Origin.

[Machpants]

I am getting hardcopies but I would prefer STEAM, just because of the lack of installation for ever. That is what STEAM rocks with, just copy the entire directory and you can use it wherever you want for rebuilds/reloads.

That said if BF3 was only available in 5.25 floppy from outer Mongolian child slave traders I'd be into the Gobi Desert trekking in a blink.

To support the business that is a major sponsor of the servers he plays on and the forums he posts on of course. The game is worth it at any price, so who cares if he gets it cheaper thru work?

[5loth]

Is everyone with a 5 at the start of there name a $#@!tard?

I'm posing a genuine question here. Ghost had a go at someone for not buying from Playtech, I'm just asking if he is himself buying from Playtech?

But it appears you may have missed that and just resorted to insults, possibly too complicated? I'm not sure.

[mattnz]

To support the business that is a major sponsor of the servers he plays on and the forums he posts on of course. The game is worth it at any price, so who cares if he gets it cheaper thru work?

So he buys it from somewhere in Auckland, and has it shipped to him (no doubt to his work address, hilariously), when he could just grab one off the shelf?

Just sounds silly, and tbh I doubt that Playtech are making a mint off this game selling it at that price.

U missed that?

[5loth]

No, I can read luckily. The fact is he had a go at someone for not doing something that he isn't doing himself (TBC). Price isn't an issue apparently, so neither should convenience when it comes to being able to support Playtech.

I don't know why you think I'm upset, I merely raised the issue of your 'trading' on these forums when the advertiser was in competition with your company.

The forum admin/mods/Playtech don't care so whatever, I'm not losing out on anything.

You just don't see the irony of it all tbh, getting worked up at other people for shopping around for the best price. Not like you're missing out on sales or anything...



P.S. You advertise everytime you post. Nice Facebook page.

No, I can read luckily.

But you evidently cant think.

He runs a game store. Hes not going to sabotage his own business by purchasing elsewhere.

The other person most likely does not own a game store.

So should have bought from play-tech to support ON3.

Yes, I'm a fucktard for having an opinion different to someone else.

OK, glad we have that clear now. If you manage a game store you are exempt from supporting ON3, but everyone else is a dick if they don't. And those that are exempt, have the right to call people dicks who also don't support ON3.

Now that you bring that up, everyone here that has pre-ordered from EB must also be a dick, as they don't run a game store, so are clearly NOT supporting ON3.

[GhostOfGallipoli]

Are you buying from Playtech GoG?

The game will be worth it at any price + chance to support the business that is a major sponsor of the servers you play on & the forums you post on.

no I'm not buying it from playtech. I have no need to because of where I work... you know this.

but, IMO getting a competitor to price match playtechs offer was petty & stupid.

honestly don't see why people are having issues understanding that

as for price chasing over all...I honestly don't see the point.... I bought BF2 from EB 1st day it came out & pay full price, put 2500 hours into it. on that value for money point alone I would pay full RRP for battlefield. chasing all over the show to save $5 to $10 just seems pointless. IMO

oi sloth - i don't buy games from playtech
I WILL be buying my BF3 build from there though
whenever I have a customer asking about components - point them to playtech, same for people wondering what servers are good.
I support where ever I can.

as for the whole getting MA to do playtechs price;

you have a choice;
1 retailer has an offer, lowest NZ price AND the side benefit that the are the sponsor for the forum & servers you use.
other retailer has a higher price, doesn't support the forums/servers/community, but will do the SAME price because you asked.

you tell me, why would you price match?

[mycoolcar]

OMG STOP EVERYTHING!!!!





THERE IS AN ARGUMENT ON THE INTERNET!

[5loth]

Importance of saving a dollar varies for everyone. For some people saving $10 is a saving worth making.

He had his reasons for wanting to buy from MA over PT, which he pointed out after being insulted. Obviously not enough of a reason to be worthy of an apology. I'm just surprised you said anything at all on the matter when you aren't supporting ON3 either for your BF3 purchase, after highlighting the importance of it.

But what you missed was I never planned to buy bf3 from playtech due to the issues ive had with PBT and same day delivery. So all I did was ask MA to price match, I was going to buy from them anyway.

and on the topic of price matching, wasn't this a service EB use to offer ? Guess they got rid of it because it was petty and stupid.

I was just highlighting it in case you missed it (as your post suggested to me that you had). Personally i think there are a lot of massive over-reactions going on in this thread. Not that it matters, but I've preordered with EB now and in the past is for the simple fact that I can pay $10 a week, rather than laying down the full purchase price (at the time of my preorder and previous preorders I was a student and couldn't afford to drop $100 on something I won't see for a couple of months)

When your just about to click the order button and on the same page it has a price match link, for 5 secs work you would be a fool not to do it(IMO).

As for supporting ON3 and Playtech in the last 12months I've spent $2.6k with Playtech and I'm spending another $1k tomorrow. Don't think they are going too be upset on losing a $80 sale.

[Dr Woomanchu]

I'm posing a genuine question here. Ghost had a go at someone for not buying from Playtech, I'm just asking if he is himself buying from Playtech?

But it appears you may have missed that and just resorted to insults, possibly too complicated? I'm not sure.

I disagree with you on this 5loth. You're making an all or nothing argument out of a decision that usually has a lot of factors. Of course GoG wouldn't buy the game from Playtech, because he gets it where he works.

GoG had a go at someone for bragging on a Playtech sponsored forum that they took the great deal Playtech offered and got a competitor to price match. It appeared mildly dickish behaviour to me, albeit on a minor scale, but worthy of comment. Are you equating that behaviour with GG choosing to publicly support a competitor on their forums, which seems not at all dickish, to me anyway.

[5tacK]

but he's right. your post contributed nothing at all to the arguement, except for a personal attack (which was in itself pretty weak)

I'm sorry if my post offended you. Wouldn't be the first personal attack on these forums made by anyone.

My previous posts were on topic but were ignored. I'd imagine facts are hard to argue with.

Have a nice day and here are some captital letters.

A B C.

[5loth]

Asked MA to beat playtech's price and they did, will also get a copy from Origin.

hardly looks like bragging to me. Just looks like someone stating how and who they purchased/will purchase the game from, in a thread where people are discussing it.

To me the above is no different to saying "I pre-ordered from EB".

[Dr Woomanchu]

It's offical, BF3 isnt coming to Steam:

"BF3 will not be available on Steam as the service restricts our ability to directly support players" link: http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/7468888.page and its all over twitter.

Not a bit deal. The only downside of this is - Your BF3 Account will not be linked to your steam account / awards/ achievements / no aliasing, and slightly easier to backup the game. etc...
This wont change the BF experience we've had with it's predecessors. Although EA "master account server is down" did suck the big one. Could be a reason why they didn't want to split accounts via Steam...? Maybe I'm wrong...

[Codex]

Is it opposite day today? BF3 would have been linked the same way bc2 was, you played it from steam but after launching it was no different to retail apart from digital distribution and recording hours of play. There were no steam achievements regardless. Your steam name did not influence the fuckton of soldiers you could create anyway. Steam backups are far easier to do than other ways unless that's what you're meaning.

Account wasn't going to be split, you just own it in steam.

I swear to god if they force linking with origin I will blow my brains out. Horrible platform.

[Nostargate]

Not EA's fault tbh


Unfortunately, Steam has adopted a set of restrictive terms of service which limit how developers interact with customers to deliver patches and other downloadable content. No other download service has adopted these practices.

From emricos link http://planetbattlefield.gamespy.com/fullstory.php?id=165252

[Retardobot]

I still really don't believe it.

Steam is one of the best places to get patches/updates for games in your library (providing you acquired them from Steam). Shit is streamlined and available instead of pissing about looking for hosts on the net.

Have a feeling EA is spinning this any which way they can to make them look like the victim.

[Lias]

Basically, EA want to be able to spam the fuck out its customers, and force them to buy DLC direct. Steam says "no, you cant access all our users details, and you can only contact them through opt in methods, and you sell DLC through our normal store process".

Valve is right, EA is wrong and spinning for all its worth.

[Spork]

I'm just going to settle and say that they are both in the wrong.

Valve is right to say 'you have to provide all the DLC for your game through our store so we can get a cut of sales or we won't sell your game at all on our store'?

I'm not sure either side is entirely right (or entirely wrong) here. Sure EA want to get the maximum return from DLC by selling it directly, but why should Valve demand they have to also sell that DLC through Steam for the game to be sold over Steam as well?

No, I can read luckily. The fact is he had a go at someone for not doing something that he isn't doing himself (TBC). Price isn't an issue apparently, so neither should convenience when it comes to being able to support Playtech.

Thats the response sloth.

When someone is accused wrongly of doing something you can expect a response....stacks comments were unjustified and not because i am a clan member, but because there is no proof of ghost activly selling anything from eb and underminning ON3 or playtech but only answering questions and providing info , and its no differernt as other people here are posting the price and places they are getting the game from also.

I suspect most people here support ON3 and playtech and defend it which is great.
I recently bought much of my new pc from playtech and I could probably get most of the items far cheaper through work with our vendor discounts and buying power.
I choose to support playtech, computer lounge , mighty ape (who iam getting bf3 through) and dove as they have provided great service and great support over the years and will continue to do so and are local companies.
I am not got stop providing info about these companies on these boards if its relavent or helpful because it might be seen by a couple as against PLaytech being a sponsor of ON3.

For some reason some people have knickers in a knot ....maybe they should provide proof before commenting.
I am sure playtech are not worried about this info as they know the PC community is very much like this.
