The what EA / Origin makes annoying, it falls a star!
but I do not see it quite as dramatic as we are monitored by all Google, Facebook and the rest of them. And I would prefer to say directly what they do, as it is done secretly.
Then I have to make an announcement to the "Premium Edition with CD" !!!
The CDs in the "Premium Editon" are bugged !! where the net rumschaut all the same problem !!!
In 99% of the installation from the CD, there's an error message, the installation does not continue, and can only be canceled !! where by everything is also already installed gone! very very annoying for it still falls a star!
Since I'm so but now unfortunately come to expect from EA, as I mentioned on the net and found the solution !! rumgesucht
Here is the solution of the 99% error;
1. Installs until it locks up the game as normal from the CD at 99%, but the break from under any circumstances!
2. Let the installation then hang so, and goes into the "Electronic Arts" folder and copies there the "Battlefield 3" folder created out (about 14GB)
3. Brecht now the installation, thereby the "Battlefield 3" deleted folder again.
4. Paste the copied "Battlefield 3" folder now in the Electronic Arts "folder.
5. You may have to restart now her Origin. After that you just need the remaining 2MB (the defective 1% of CD) download via Origin, + ca 2GB Updates
6. You can play BF2 + Back 2 Karkand)
the rest are addons downloading ca nochma 5GB
The best use for the Battlelog Firefox or Chrome, Internet Explorer makes zicken with the required addon)
Hope I could help and give an impression of my first impressions of BF3 and the Premium Edition.
