Worthless on PC if you value your time
Don't spend you money on the PC version yet. Instead visit the EA forums and look at threads 95 pages deep since the launch filled with windows error log dumps. The battlelog errors are very generic (something went wrong) and hundreds of people are clueless as to why the client gracefully (not total crash) leaves the game and shuts down. Launch day was fine. Wednesday Thursday and Friday (Today) consisted of about 4 hours of gameplay combined, across 30 games, with only TWO actually finishing. The rest ended in: - Client freeze with repeating audio - Server no longer exists (what?) - Disconnected from server - Something went wrong The last 10 games have all been "something went wrong" My Specs 16GB RAM Intel i5-3550 MSI 660ti 3GB I just left a review on the 660ti so you can verify I do own it, since there are paid EA employees leaving comments on reviews claiming we are lying about our specs. I am waiting to post this until I get the email saying the review of my GPU was posted. Let me tell you, the worst part about 30 games not finishing, hours wasted trying to self-diagnose the issues, and getting the run around with tech support - is that the stats from a match are lost when either the client or the server crash. So I have nothing to show for the last 3 days, not a single unlock. If the progression stuck this wouldn't be half bad, as myself and the other thousands of people complaining on forums will note that you actually can play for a good 20 minutes. Contrast that to call of duty matches and that is a reasonable period of gameplay. In that case who cares about seeing the "Game over" screen - just let us keep our progression and I will gladly rejoin. And finally, if you want to roll the "Dice" do not buy from Amazon. Because you can at least initiate a chargeback from EA when you realize Oh Crap, this really is terrible. You don't want to do that with a product purchased from Amazon directly (digital download) because you will most likely be suspended. PS I'm trying EA support chat a second time as I write this, otherwise tomorrow I am calling bank of america to issue a chargeback because the goods delivered are 100% different than what I tried to purchase (Paid for a game that runs, was provided with a game that does not run).
