I see that I can pre-order keys for BF:Hardline for about €32.

Will the price go up once the game is released? (Because I heard that the game will be $70, this is why I am puzzled seeing it for pre-order at €32)

I'm guessing those €32 pre-order keys are from gray-market sellers? Those kinds of sites fluctuate in price all the time.

On all the legitimate digital download sites, the price looks pretty consistent.

Have to wonder how that store could sell things so cheap,i went to one in Colorado and i was amazed at their selection and prices.

Loss leaders. Their CPUs are always dirt cheap. Sucker you in and suddenly you have a MB, ram, case, gpu, etc, etc.

Kind of like Frys with their cpu+mobo combos?Cheap as hell for that but you pay out the ass for memory,hard drives and other odds and ends?

Those Frys combos were unbelievable.:eek:

Microcenter had a preorder deal on it for $30. In store only though.

Ah yes, I do remember the Microcenter deal with BF Hardline for $30. So maybe we'll see it pop up for that cheap in a few other places too before it comes out.

I don't plan on buying it anytime soon personally. Played the beta and it was nothing interesting.

Me myself,i am waiting for a game time deal with that game.I learned from BF4 and its release.The actual game released in a worst state then it was in beta,at least that was the experience for me.

A Gametime situation could sell me on the game,but i saw my issues that are pretty much in BF4 still lol when i played that Hardline Beta.

I'll pick it up when its cheap. Nothing about the beta made me want to buy it. Felt like a bad version of bf4. Not enough cool stuff to be battlefield, but way overkill for a cops and robbers game. Might get enough laughs out of it at $20 or so though. I guess it depends on how many people in my clan get suckered into it.

Yeah its worth $20.It had a CS:GO feel to it i felt,movements and gun play felt much like it honestly.Gametime would only sell me on the stability of the game.

I got a feeling the multi-player will be close to dead in about a year after release and then it will hit the bargain bin for $20.

Oh it does feel watered down,you can't tell me it doesn't .Even detail on some of the weapons looks a bit lacking in comparison to BF4/BF3.

Doesn't mean its horrible,it's simply a observation.

From BF3-4 yeah its a step down, but comparing it toCS:GO...geez that's harsh. LOL

Out of all my fps games,that's the game that comes close to the same feel.I would love any other comparisons but i have seen the CS:GO comparison a few times so i'm not exactly alone on that.

It doesn't feel like a traditional BF period,it may share the same name and a mode or two but it isn't feeling like one.

Does not mean its bad or horrible.:)

I agree its only a slightly better than mediocre game that should have been named something besides BF, but IMO CS:GO is awful. At least Hardline looks good. LOL
