CD Key resellers already selling hardline keys (or pre-orders for them, anyway) for a little under $40.

I didn't think PC gamers bought games at all, except for $5-$10 games from Steam sales.

And yet we spend more annually on videogames than the poor console players.



(just a joke, pc gamers are really impulsive about money)

Just make sure you wait until the game's actually out and the server is actually up before you go and buy it.

Yeah no, this is what people are actually laughing at, not someone being cool and generous. It is a special kind of retarded to spend multiple hundreds of dollars buying a server for a game which a) may die within a month and b) is not even released yet.

Star Citizen is kind of the gold standard for prepaying lots of money for something which may never come out though, right?

Bitch I'm speaking from experience, I backed star citizen in the day. Thankfully I sold my poo poo during the golden era of the imaginary future internet spaceship black market.

I want to know what shankerz does for a living that he spends literally thousands of dollars on video games every month

2142 is still the best in the series. Final Stand for BF4 is basically a prequel to 2142, so I don't know why they don't just loving make 2143 or whatever instead. I want REAL Titan matches and mechs back! :argh:

I would think about pre-ordering, then not pre-order but still be stealth excited.

I spent all day flying those transport shippies and taking titan pods to land in awkward positions and just snipe all day like a true pubbie :gay:

So for the digital deluxe, you get access to all those battle packs that come with a specific weapon. Is this weapon exclusive to deluxe, or is it just a shortcut to something you can unlock in standard?

It's exclusive for now, but will probably become available at some point in the future.

edit: also found this from ~2011, did Goons predict TF2 + BFBC2 = BF:HL ?

Those are awesome. Will need someone to make a banner for our server as well as fourm sig so we can bump our server posting on the official website. I'll post the server info as soon as they give it. I'm also looking for responsible people that would like to be server admins to keep the brown sea of pubbies in check as well as spergish goons that need a good backhanding every once in a while, like my self :p . Drstrangelove is currently the best and only choice that I know of. If you guys have anyone you think could help serve the rest of us goons. Please post :)

Also looking into any scripts that our community would like for the server in reference modes and settings we want to see on our server. I hope to get it set in stone and keep it the same for a while as opposed to changing the server daily.

Also looking to see how many goons would be interested on release day to lock our server and maximize our 200% xp buff into trading kills and wins. Example just hotwirng cars and letting everyone just drive around to collect xp and cash for a few hours.

So I'm guessing if I live in Asia and mostly play on Asian servers that joining a goonsquad is probably not gonna happen, eh

Is there a separate, international [CUMP] reach-out program or NGO that I can roll with

Haven't heard of one yet. You are more then welcome to roll with us on our server based out of Dallas Texas. Your ping might be in range of 150-250. I've played on Russian servers with 180 ping and done just fine.

With John Riccitiello at the helm of EA I could see them charging $75+ for the base Battlefront game, with this new guy hopefully they will still only charge $60. They will definitely con a bunch of people in to paying $100 for the collector's edition though.

Battlefront + "season pass" will definitely run $100+ though.
