  • Want to know something hilarious? I downloaded Origin and bought the digitally version of BF3. Now after playing it for about an hour, it crashes, and I'm trying to get into Origin again, but it won't let me, cause it runs slow, and keeps freezing etc. I reinstalled it, and guess what? BF3 is nowhere to be found. It's gone from my Origin account, and I obviously have to buy it again, to get it back. Well that's not happening....Origin shit....

  • *^*^*^*^*^The only thing WRONG with Origin is that it acts as spyware, Steam can handle the competition but EA just dug their own grave by playing Big Brother.

    Almost wants to make me get MW3....almost.

  • I've only just learned about Origin from looking at the rating on amazon - 233 1-stars due to Origin. I think I'll skip BF3, sadly. Might get COD MW3.

  • Fuck you EA, you greedy pieces of shit. Get rid of Orgin it's forcing so many players away, or at least FIX IT. Because of Origin I'm not buying BF3, I'll go spend my money on MW3

  • It took Origin five and a half hours for me to PREPARE the download for Battlefield 3. Now I have to DOWNLOAD Battlefield 3. Yay fucking me. Fuck you EA!

  • I read to origin licence agreement. I looks like they be spying on what software you have, what you have installed and spec of your workstation. really is flustrating. I hope it backfires and there is a mass game revolt. the sad thing is steam saved PC gaming it was dieing and ea seen the success and want in on the action. steam work. steam do it well, I love steam all I what is steam. I guess I not be buying anymore eg games. said as I love the battlefield series.

  • you forgot something if you read the eula it says that ea is alowed to get into ur pc and take info the sell it to 3rd parties and if you have any pirated stuff the game wont install THAT pissess me off

  • Steam searches a few key files origin can search EVERYTHING

  • @sithaassasin96 just like steam/securom and windows

  • What people don't know though is that origin is like a spyware program!

    It can check and see everything that you have in your computer!

  • I don't really understand the big deal in all of this. Can't you just solve the damn problem by getting an origin account? Stop being such fucking cry babies...

  • steam user community: origin sucks, boycott origin.

  • I'll be skipping BC3 then unless it's delivered via Impulse. I use Impulse and Steam. Steam for 99% of my games and Impulse for the rest.

    Origin is probably fine but it's just one more application to go through - just can't be assed.

    Too many other games to play

  • @BubOn1c if anything they are getting less money because steam is so much more accessible and so familiar to pc gamers and to make them buy there game somewhere else just because of retarded ea is ridiculous. There is no need for ea to that and ea also made a big mistake with online passes

  • I'm a console gamer and I don't see the big deal. So you have to download something, big deal. Having Battlefield 3 only on Origin is part of marketing. They're making these games for money, not 100% for your enjoyment. Game development is some peoples full time job, and by doing this EA and DICE are making more money. Which will lead to better quality games in the future.

    I'm not sure, but I think Left 4 Dead is only available on Steam? It's the exact same concept.

    Please grow up.

  • @BubOn1c It's the spyware part and the crappy condition of origin software.

    I'm not against EA having a system like Valve... IT's the FU agreement they make you sign that gives up all your privacy... they reserve the right to prevent you from playing your game if you embrace another player.

  • I dont care about the thing that the name in the game is linked to the ea-acc, but it sucks that i have to download origin. i hate steam, but its ok because its so big and my friends are there, but now i have to install that new shit program and it doesnt have all the cool games i have on steam and this sucks...now i really thinking of buying battlefield for my xbox...

  • origin sucks man,the only reason i have it is because i need BF3 ,it looks shit and whats the point-steam works fine and it great! loads of play 4 free,cheaper deals great friend app's so whats the fucking point of this! im so angry at EA mother fuckers ,not only do they fuck up good games they dont give a shit about anyone unless they get money-FUCK OFF EA NO ONE LIKES YOU! THUMBS UP IF U AGREE!!!

  • @MadMrZack Steam has restrictions on patching through third party publishers, thats why ea pulled alot of games off that service. Thats how I think they can do alot more with their own online service adding map packs and updated clients when ever. YOU think bf3 is going to fail because its not on steam? you're kinda dumb. I could care less if I have to download a "second steam".

  • @Chadbrah not just me alot of people because for 1. they have all their friends and achievements on steam and 2. majority of people aren't retarded and aren't going to give in to EA's money whoring bull shit.

  • @MadMrZack Majority of people arnt going to give in to ea? I beg to differ, I bet my left nut you will have the game day 1... so bitching about this service is pretty pointless. EA's money whoring bullshit? They want to support their own game..if anything this shows that ea isnt givning into steams money whoring. its really simple to understand. Regardless no serious pc gamer will pass this game up. Steam, Origin it doesnt matter. Its BF3 probly the biggest and most hyped pc shooter ever.

  • @Chadbrah I still haven't gotten BF3.. I don't want EA looking at my tax returns.

    My personal computer is personal.

  • Origin is alright tbh..... Steam causes sooo much problems for me for many years.... its great for a change. Oh and I still use Xfire xD

  • If something not broken dont fix it - use Steam!!! Stupid EA!!!!

  • @jinxtube1712 you know EA is doing the same thing Valve did when Valve launched Steam and people bitched about Steam back then but whats so wrong with competition? If Steam and Origin compete each will start using incentives to use their service like discounts and bonuses which reward players!

  • @FatBoySlim14 yeah they did the same thing back then,and not every1 liked it,but its good and its taken along time to get that good,and now it is good,they make us buy games on another ,worse "steam" theres no need for competition,if u know EA like i do they will fuck this up proper!

  • Come check out my small selection of videos, I'm just a lowly console scrub, but I'll be pumping out a montage or commentary once a week, if not less. Come over and check this out.

  • Hey what's worse about the game is that there is no in game server browser. I think I speak for everyone when I say "WTF?!"

  • whats all this green worded shite the internet is getting worse and fucking worse

  • what does the Gold Dog Tags mean? iv been getting a lot (as well as silver) 

  • the alpha has been on this

  • I myself am a console and pc gamer but more console than pc and I think that EA taking control is a good thing and will help battlefield players but I also think that you should be able to have multiple soldiers and be able to change your name more easily.

  • I'm getting the game on Xbox, but this doesn't benefit anybody. Why would EA do this? I get the use and creation off Origin, and I am fine with it, but the changes to everything else is pointless, in my opinion. They have a game with amazing gameplay and experience, but if they're making it so difficult and cumbersome to acquire in the first place, people could find other products that are more accessible.

  • i think that is really dumb that you can't have more than 1 soldier per copy of BF3. i think EA intended this to cut down on griefing and make banning easier for servers, but they DEFINITELY shouldn't go through with it. plus i am going to have to drop the EA account i already have because i am not officially listed as a player of BF2, for some reason. my account is not listed so i do not qualify for BF: veteran status which really sucks. if anybody has any suggestions send me a message plz

  • @sminmorph ahh thanks for the info man! i look forward to shredding the shit out of this game.

    cheers!

  • sometimes i like to call it orgy... :D

  • whats wrong with downloading origin and using it just add non steam game

  • @MultiKillbox

    EXACTLY!!!!!

  • in my opinion steam sucks

    i played black ops on pc at a friend of me and the ping changed all the time

    that means its steams fault

    i play a strategy game called supreme commander 2

    there was a glitch after the patch for it was released EVERYONE to kicked from EVERY multiplayer room

    for 1 week straight there was no multiplayer

    STEAM SUCKS

  • I wonder if my Dual core at 2.71Ghz can run this on medium.

  • @Wolfe171 no

  • @carlosdajoke activision and ubisoft.  They are out to make money but are not whoring like EA

  • @Matthew3590 That's funny last I remember EA was a Co. just like any other, out to make money, guess they just love you and will treat you special and so that doesn't make them money whore's huh? remember just because they don't make there money of there shooter category's doesn't mean they don't try to make a lot of money remember they have other game that do this FIFA, MADDEN NFL, NCAA very easy for you to be humble towards them since you're not the one they make most there money off of.

  • xbox

  • I hope that everyone knows that when you agree to install origin your agreeing that EA can access Information about your computer and what you do on it. Don't believe me? Google "origin The gaming vault", click the first result and read it.

  • whats the friking BOX?

  • You guys know Valve did the same with steam early and still does with some games ^^

    Fuck it, i buy it on origins or just get the cd, i prefer steam but meh, fuck it.

  • i fail to see how this is any diffrent then valve doing this with l4d and l4d2 etc... you pussies just need to grow the fuck up. i mean goddam.

  • @jimbob677 its sux too . but it doesn;t mean we have too allow this shit , just because somebody else is doing it . how ever , atleast origin would be better than steam , but it SUX . its so fucking horrible . and battlefield 3 is made retarded for pc . you need to have origin and internet browser running to play it . lol , wtf ? pc gaming is GOING TO TOTAL SHIT . you need gfwl , steam , origin and other shit to play games on pc . fuck ea , fuck valve , fuck ms . but fuck ea more .

  • @jimbob677  because origin is way more fucked up than valve man .

  • @jimbob677 well, with valve Steam both has a lot more games. Better UI's. And you can always change your "outgoing" name. You are NOT bound to the steam user name. Which is what both Swordsman, and myself, is annoyed about.

  • @jimbob677 nobody said steam was a great service, but we would rather have just one app for games, would u rather have one piece of shit or two?

  • @jimbob677 Because with Steam it was optional, but with Orgin they make you have it just to play the game...

  • @jimbob677 No, it's just that Origin is a piece of shit. Steam is not.

  • @jimbob677 Its because scared pussies like you are a afraid/lazy to get of your ass and do something worthy in your life for a fucking change! who is the pussy here? u Are... can't believe your twisted pussy logic, yah pussy!

  • I'm looking to buy a PC to run Battlefield 3 on High Settings, how much do you think a brand new PC would cost, on average to run it at high?

  • @Shadowclawz1 about 1k for a solid gaming PC.

  • @vikingsvectorinn 1K What though? We talking Dollars? I live in UK.

  • @Shadowclawz1 ok then around 650 pounds for a good gaming PC just pick a very good AMD processor hexacore and a Ati hd6950 / GeForce GTX 560 graphics card or better

  • @vikingsvectorinn Thanks a lot. I heard 1 GTX 560 is good enough to run it on high (From DICE) So, the pricing isn't as bad as I thought it would be. Cheers :)

  • @Shadowclawz1 in this particular game you dont need a super GPU. the most important thing is to have an at least 4 core processor.

  • @Shadowclawz1 no problem m8 :D

  • @Shadowclawz1 around 800 bucks. :) You need to custom-build it, and what i mean with that is that you pick all the components you want, then either the store you buy it on or yourself builds it. Much cheaper and better stuff.

  • @nhlkingen55 Okay, thanks for the help :)

  • im not trying to start a console war but thats y u have xbox 360 :)

  • i like games without steam, steam is horrible

  • Most games on steam if you buy retail you have to use steam. Total war series, black ops, and valve games.

  • gabe said he tried... it's clearly EA just trying to get exclusives

  • well if your so pissed just get it on consoles

  • just a way for ea to force traffic onto their digital on demand platform, pathetic, sneaky shit, provide a good service you cunts ea, thats all you need to do.

  • hahahahahahahahahahaha!!

  • @jacek45 My PC costs $750 and can play most modern games at max settings. A $500 PC can still beat consoles by performance. And for your inforation, consoles are maxed at 256 players, but not most games supports it. Most PC gamers spent $1000 or less to play not only pc games, but also other stuff like work, schoolwork, video editing,etc. $2000 PC is overkill.

  • @watty31 do you even know anything about PC vs Xbox? -_-

  • Personally, I'll install origin to play, but I think EA will lose a lot of potential customers and make a lot of people mad because of this. I'd rather install BF3 on steam.

  • i would install any program just to play Battlefield 3

  • Wait is Origin only for PC?

  • @TopMediaGraphics Yes, EA would be insane to put it on consoles.

  • Fine then don't buy and play battlefield... That simple...

  • HI

  • Thats why you think before you make your account name.

  • Play on xbox? =3

  • @iGeeklander Go download origin please BAHAHAHHAH. This video sums up how exclusive PC really is XD Stop talking bullshit. How much do you have to spend to get a top end PC that won't crash or overheat from the graphics card being over run? Close to £1000. The new xbox 360 £299.99 you get your monies worth. Everything competitive is on the xbox 360, other than games like starcraft. Don't get me wrong PC is good I play PR all the time. But get off your high horse and realise that PC is inferior.

  • @watty31 dude, i would ask how old you are, but thats not the right question, HOW DUMP YOU ARE?

    i don't fucking give a fuck about money... the only argument that console players have against pc gamers is fucking MONEY, i have an xbox, but i admit that ps3 is better, and i also admit that pc is better.

    lower price doesn't mean better, GET OVER WITH CONSOLE PLAYERS... GOD DAMN FUCK YOU ALL, I DO HAVE MONEY, SO GUESS WHAT? I HAVE A FUCKING KILLING MACHINE CALLED P.C.

  • @iGeeklander Haha you mad bro? I'm 16 btw just so you know. How dump am I? Oh so ironic. Your asking how dumb I am when you can't even spell "dumb". On paper the PC and PS3 are better but the fact that the xbox is best priced making it WORTH your money and the least likely to break on you. PS3 got hacked and went down to close to a month, PC is just overpriced and companies such as EA just give them the middle finger. All I can see in the comments is people complaining about this origin thing XD

  • @watty31 were you from? U.K. right? lucky lucky motherfucker, i live in this hell of nothingness and "DUMB" people called brazil, here an pc or even a console costs 10x times (no kidding), 10 times the price you would pay in your country... and i learned to speak this poor mad beggar english from youtube, so don't bother me.

    for me, i don't care about how it costs, i care about best performance. thats why i bought a dog not an cat (lol).

  • @iGeeklander I hate foreigners that try to speak English. If you don't know how to speak it, don't try. It's almost an insult. Okay you waste your money on something which is apparently 10x more in your country. I'll buy an xbox for a more than reasonable price and use the money left over to do something more beneficial like save up for a car maybe? Like I said on paper the PC is better but why do so many people play xbox? It's so much more reliable and better for your money. End of.

  • @watty31

    how are they supposed to learn if they cant speak it? what kinda shit is that

  • @paclac1337 What I'm trying to say is when they talk absolute shit and you have no idea what they're saying it gets annoying. So not shit at all.

  • @watty31

    He's making more sense than you and english isn't even his main language. How sad is that?

  • Origin is so simple and easy to use! And its really useful! Just download the thing

  • @MitchBomber origin sucks dont lie bitch!

  • one soldier pr copy... I love it!

  • @LOL787LOL Btw i saw your channel your just a no life troll

  • @123ilikecheese456 Checking his channel? Really? That's just sad...

    And your channel isn't better. Just some old clips.

  • @123ilikecheese456 my channel is full of trash and stuff which i done when i was freaking 14 ¬¬, and no am not a troll why would i troll for? all i did was to make a sarcastic joke which was "MUHAHAHAHAHAHAH CONSOLE WINS AGAIN" SARCASM not TROLLING ok?, and the last part i did say that i felt sorry for you guys....so i honestly dont see how am trolling :l

  • @LOL787LOL Dude theres always new games for the pc coming out that the xbox and ps3 will never get like the new tf2 custom maps downloading games free games moives etc. so fuck you dumbass

  • @Germanatior Yeah i agree. ah the good old cod 2 miss it so much. I didn't really mind needing steam though, it wasn't that bad

  • Isn't this mostly the same footage as your latest soapbox from your regular channel, Swords?

  • @sweatypotato I wasn't even talking about Battlefield because if you look at all the trailers they're done on a PC. I'm stoked for this game and I'm so glad that testing has been done and shown on the PC. I was just saying a lot of the games aren't looked over greatly when it comes to PC release.

  • LONG LIVE STEAM!

  • I feel like if we could have gotten a group of thousands to say, "we wont buy the game until it's on Steam", enough to affect sales, I guarantee EA would change their ways.

  • I got Origin it's not that bad.

    Everyone will save time and therefore life if you just install it and play games.

    See it as two companies competing. Steam is dominating and even if I love Steam you need competition on the market as with everything. Or else the prices will be set to whatever they want.

  • If I get 100 subscribers my pants would overflow with jizz and piss

  • you forgot to say that if you don't log in on origin in 2 years all of your games will be removed and you can't get them back

  • @wootsausemanman talking about yourself?

  • the name thing is just retardedly bad and the Origin thing already sucks so I'm really skeptical

  • New decent commentator /watch?v=YVauypuCGc8&feature

    THANKS for reading this and maybe even watch his video :)

  • as with Steam, i am more concerned with being forced to run another program in the background while trying to play my PC games.

  • I'm sorry but you PC gamers seem really really bitchy. I don't really see why it matter's that you'll be AJ1984 yadayadayada ,people will remember who you are. And Origin, I mean it can help with patches and downloads if EA doesn't have to go through Steam with it, besides, if you made something would you want to be in the background while someone else sold it?

  • It's bullcrap

  • @lakseman it is.

  • umm...the download for origin would be like 1mb and take 2mins to sign up. go get a can of toughen up

  • I don't give a fuck even though I use Steam to play just about every game I have.

    Deal with it, you only start up Origin if you want to play BF3 unless you for some retarded reason WANT it to launch on start up. The only fault with this is that offline gaming is hard.

  • wow gay....

  • now imagine all publishers doing this !

  • crap...

    

  • The reason they are doing it isn't because of competition ect it is because Steam take about 14% of the sale of each game so by them doing Origin they don't loose that 14% which in my opinion is fin why the fuck are you complaining? You still get the game.

  • as long as i can add the bf3 shortcut to my steam games menu i don't really give a shit

  • @shepardnelski It'll probably open Origin though, like ubisoft does with UPLAY

  • glad I play on ps3, no this origin bullshit, but even then I still haven't decided to buy this game :/

  • why all the hate? its the same shit, u can unable/disable origin ingame if u like. or just add BF3 to steam as a non-steam game. damn u trolls always looking for something to hate on.

  • i Hope that it gets change.

  • Omg guys Origin is ALOT better EA can control stats better, stop hackers, and keep illegel games off the servers. Yes sometimes you have to change things such as your EA account. Sometimes change is rough suck it the fuck up and play the damn game.

  • @Fall3nAng3ls you have to buy the game again after 2-3 years for a reboot game, fuck that

  • @Fall3nAng3ls if i buy a retail copy ( wich i prefer ) then i don't want to download no origin bs . i played bf 3 alpha and i was really dissapointed how it is made on pc . first , you need to have 3 process running to play fucking battlefield 3 . first , battlelog ,  battlelog runs on internet explorer , then origin and then BATTLEFIELD 3 ! . first of all , why battlelog isn't in origin or in a fucking game ? you join the servers thru battlelog .

  • @Fall3nAng3ls and that is the reason , why people keep choosing consoles over pc , because you won't see shit like this on consoles . talking about my self , i have a good enough pc to enjoy battlefield 3 , but if i buy bf 3 , it will be on xbox .( if i buy it at all) because i don't support this origin-battlelog bs . and origin is a fail . how stupid can it be , if it can't have battlelog installed in it ? now you will control your game thru a fucking website . lmao .

  • @Fall3nAng3ls are you saying its better than steam? cause if you are thats just plaine wrong

  • @Fall3nAng3ls Nobody wants to have two separate digital libraries for the exact same media.

  • 75 were you born tht year? -_-

  • @1991ENIGMA I talked back to EA Support , and yup can change EA Main ID.But theres the risk of your info getting broken... or something like that ... (If that was real -_-)

  • Steam is not much better. Ever played a Live game like GTAIV. You have to log into about three different accounts to get the game going.

    That said, I've already got Origin on my pc and pre-bought BF3.

    Can't wait for the Beta!

  • The game is being released retail, the thing is you have to install it on Origin.

  • well thats a deal breaker for me, I liked BFBC2 a lot but if it aint going into my steam account I aint buying it, I take great pride of my games library and if I cannot have a trophy of a game I pay for anywhere I want, whats the use of paying for it in the first place?

  • origin is shite i hate having to have 2 game platforms :(

  • 5,537 View

  • "Battlefield games have always had a huge amount of awards and Battlefield 3 will have more than 10 times the amount found in Bad Company 2." You don't really need more than one soldier.

  • PC gamers stop wining you still get the fucking game u just have to use new software big fuckin deal if u dont like that start playing console

  • this is fucking bullshit

  • You should be banned from Machinima.

    That is all.

    

  • Why not get your fatass out and buy a hardcopy of the game?

  • @barod1 u still have to download orgin tho

  • its not a big deal at all, takes 2 minutes to register and log in

  • You said that you do not like the idea of having to use 1 program to play your game, so Origin to play BF3. But you also said you like Steam and your upset its not with steam? They are basically the same things are they not?

  • Origin's problem is that all the games are fucking overpriced. BF3 is £40 there, while you can buy it on Amazon for like £28. EA doing things like this is going to kill Origin before it even gets off the ground.

    As for the software itself, it's just a re-skinned EADM. I'd rather just use Steam but I'm not too bothered. Only having one character is stupid though. What if my brother wants to play, and rank up? He's never going to buy his own copy, so again EA are making it worse for themselves.

  • i fuckin hate steam and i think that EA is doing a very awesome thing. next to that they had to do this, bcause the game is fully integrated with battlelog and its easier to control everything if your launcher so to speak is your own program, not steam...

  • I really doubt this Origin is going to stop people from buying Battlefield 3 and EA KNOWS THIS!

  • It's funny how this outrages people. It really doesn't matter.

  • im just buying it for xbox or pirating it on pc

  • Why the video begins with battlefield and ends with MW3?

  • you can change your origin name

  • uuu. I hate origin. When i try to start ME2 or BC2 with it they wont start at all. AT. ALL. Origin is bullshit.

  • I like Steam updates better. BFBC2 updates... -_-

  • origin is just nice :P

  • Its all about preference, I personally don't like steam even though I own a lot of games there

  • You can make new personas on your account on EA and usually in Battlefield you make a soldier and name him.

  • EA isn't in a feud with Steam, you could even see that its Steam's fault. Origin is free and it isn't a lot of hassle. Steam has a policy where all dlc and games have to go through them, so EA pulled BF3 from Steam so they can manage their own DLC and patches

  • Well you guys are going to have to get Origin if you want to play BF3. So deal with it.

  • It does not bother me any more ofc it sucks i cant chat with my steam mates while on bf3 but most of them will chat on origins lol they all will play bf3 so :P

  • @Baromanthefool Although to those who it does bother, you can (If you really want) add a non steam game into steam from the BF3.exe to play with the Steam Overlay, although of course it will work through origin which will in turn run next to steam xD

  • @joshhodgetts shamefully in the alpha i could not use the steam overlay :(:( so i Dalt on release date itl work eihta :/

  • I though steam broke away from EA.. since EA chose to sell the game on mainly origin, this was some how against the rules, terms of agreement or whatever.. to steam, or valve.. So which means that EA could not anymore sell BF3 on Steam..

  • Now it's dead on the floor, just to shock him welling LOL

  • hate it :/

  • 68 days left

  • ITS JUST A FUCKING GOOD GAME PLAY IT! ORIGIN ITS OK FINE I PLAY THE GAME NOT ORIGIN
