    The VPN trick doesn't seem to be working at the moment. :( Disaster, my trial just ran out haha.

    Anyway, this game is most definitely the best fun I have had in a game in a long time. It's epic. Looking forward to seeing some of you in game :)

    What's the install size for PC? I've got 78GB free on my SSD.
    Hope it's enough, cant afford a larger one just yet.

    45gig download. But DLC will of course bloat that a good bit as time passes, so exceeding 78 gigs is very possible.

    Trial is 47GB don't know where the full game is installed but a guess would be 56GB should be good for now!

    That should be ok so. I should have a new 500GB SSD by the time the first DLC lands.

    Just go to battlelog now, the icon is already there but not active.

    Messing with the URL shows the companion app currently:

    No link. But it's just appeared in the battlelog drop down list. No other reason for it to be there. Twitter feeds blowing up with it.

    While it looks slick and all, I've never cared for such atmosphere breaking things like that. They do all this research and then chuck in a gold plated BAR?

    It's gotta have that bit of battlefield flair. Personally I don't think it's that bad.
    At least it isn't CS:GO bad.

    Might give this a shot later, does this work on all pre orders or just the deluxe and special jobbie! Mine doesnt unlocke til the 20th as I pre ordered the standard version.


    Only deluxe sorry. Its only making origin think you are in Australia where the game has already launched. Standard is still the 21st. You'll be able to access it earlier on the 20th doing this but not now

    EA have stated they don't care if people do this. It's in the thread

    2 questions lads:

    1) What's the likelihood of a 6/7GB patch dropping in at midnight? (PS4). I have limited time tonight so hope I'm able to jump straight in.

    2) What is the actual release time? Email says 11pm but timer says midnight

    Game has been running fine for me over the weekend (and most others), so cant say for sure there isnt a patch but it seems unlikely there would be one that big.

    They're probably trying to ease in the massive influx of COD players.
