I think it will be today. I've just played a hilarious round of conquest (as a tank hunter) and noticed that tile with 10% discount in the menu has changed to something like "save on BFV". So, yeah, it's coming to PS4 as well.
This is it? Lol.
Sound more like a desperate attempt on your side to shield EA from criticism.
EA is not a nice or ethical company worth supporting just because they include women in a WW2 game.
This seems more like a deflection from their otherwise terrible business practices (and no being a business or wanting to make money is no excuse whatsoever for what they do).
"Hey guys our loot boxes may make children addicted to gambling but look! We have women in our videogames, aren't we progressive? We are the good guys afterall, you just got to support us!"
that is one hell of a discount...............but not new to EA games. They do this with some other titles as well like NBA.
But Battlefield doing it must mean there was some insane sale shortages

I think DICE is going to struggle going forwards. They've obviously been having trouble hitting deadlines for years, and it's only going to get tougher with increased competition for talent in the region. There's Epic which opened in Stockholm in May, plus Soderlund has a startup and he's surely luring people he knows at DICE over to it, plus all the usual other places. There are probably a lot of people at DICE bored or burned out doing basically the same thing for so long, and here are other studios likely offering exciting fresh work for higher pay.
Seems like EA are getting a bit desperate...
BF5 must be selling terribly for them to offer such a deep discount already!

You seem like one of those posters that will shit on everything and not have any proof about what you are talking about.
Jesus this sucks that you have to install bf1 to get this deal. Why couldn't we just buy from the store?? Taking forever to download 😭
By making BF5 some what stylistic, they have lost a lot of battlefields identify. It also seemed like what Devs do to combat franchise fatigue but in BF5s case it's not the departure customers wanted.
Yes, I guess all the commotion about the character with the metel hook hand made me think that kind of theme was more prevalent.
I'd assume the chances are very good. Several retailers had physical copies at $30-40 last week, so I don't think it's particularly restrictive. They totally flubbed the launch in terms of needing that pricing drop, and they've burned early adopters in a way that'll likely be caustic to their next launch. I know it was out of necessity, but they really poisoned the well on this one.
Damn!, so glad i held off on getting this, people who bought it already must be super pissed!!
Got it from the Turkish marketplace for like £18.....bargain!!!

Its not uncommon for EA tho. BF1 was discounted for Black Friday to the same price after 3 weeks.
Not saying its the same. But its not uncommon from EA.
BF4 was as low as $25 on Black Friday and BF3 was as low as $28, both a month after launch.
Didn't realize Best Buy had PC copies (that usual "code in an empty box" situation). Might jump in for $40.
How come? I bought it during the PS sale and it really feels like a modern 1942 to me. Loving it.
The accusation was known before + they removed Ronaldo from their website directly after the accusation (and internal documents where Ronaldo admitted to doing exactly what he's accused of) came out, only to then put him back a few days later.
WWII without the well-known battles or weapons. Like M1 Garand isn't in the game. WTH!
Doesn't seem like you can get the in-game discount and gift the game to somebody. Disappointing, but I might just get them anyways.
The M1 Garand was not in Battlefield 1942 at launch. The American engineer had an Enfield. It was later added in a new map of the Fall of the Philippines but only usable on that one map.
Oh shit live on PSN now? Downloading BF4! Didn't end up buying it on XBL since I remembered I have $30 in PSN credit.

I've been loving this game. I don't mind paying full price, becuase I've been having a blast for a few weeks now.
Hopefully this gets more people to pick it up. It's a great game.

Physical copies? Its one thing between physical stock that may need to be cleared and digital sales. Regardless, this is a bad look for EA. Anyone who brought at $60 (or above) will surely feel burned and refrain the next game EA releases.
Pretty salty I purchased this for 60$ digitally and to see it discounted like this puts a pretty bad taste in my mouth buying digital from the like of EA and UBIsoft moving forward. When a member from the dice staff who posts on this forum says there's no plans for a digital sale and I trust them and purchase the game at 60$ It makes me pretty pissed.
This feels more like Battlefield than Battlefield 1 did. By a country mile, IMO.
That's good, as the game is pretty tremendous (MP wise).
Don't know about 4, but in 1 it's definitely there. About to order it myself digitally.
I was going to wait until Firestorm dropped, but since I was expecting it to be $30 by then anyhow, I might was well jump on this now
It worked for me once BF4 did an update after starting up the game. The UI was just sitting there not filled in and it finally updated and had to restart. The sale appeared as soon as I logged in again. Deluxe only on PSN but standard and deluxe options on Xbox.
