Quite fitting for the weirdos who like to purchase games on the EGS.

 

[Shubh_C63]

Oh thank lord.
Can someone help. Bought BF1 on steam, EA App auto installed and all, and then game launch says, cannot launch with older version of EA Anti Cheat. And then afterwards, "This software cannot be used at the same time as the game.". Billion dollar companies still can't make Launchers or their own game work.

 

[Sentenza]

That makes it the easiest choice of all time.

 

[Magic Carpet]

I've got both Steam and Epic installed, But I don't require Battlefield 6 on my computer.

Quite fitting for the weirdos who like to purchase games on the EGS.

So quite fitting for nobody then, got it.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Good shit. I will likely buy this day 1.

Oh they exist alright.

 

[Donald mac Ronald]

If EA deliver a good product I'm not sure how I feel of giving gaben 30% for nothing.

 

[VolticArchangel]

Are you threatening me with a good time, EA?

 

[T4keD0wN]

Oh they exist alright.

[winjer]

That is great news. Getting this on Steam, without the need for the EA app is awesome.

 

[GHG]

You don't have to look very far.

They are hiding in plain sight.

But... why would anyone buy bf6 or any other game for that matter on that shop if it's similar price on steam? For half hmmm no.

 

[DaciaJC]

I'm curious what Sweeney has to say about this.

[DaciaJC]

Not the one I had in mind, but very welcome nonetheless!

 

[Celcius]

Very glad to hear this.
Think there's any chance they go back and update the older BF games to not need a separate launcher?

I own BF 3, 4, 1, and 5 on EA Play but I'd buy them again during a sale on Steam if it meant not having to use a non-Steam launcher.

Launch via the EA App

 

[Hideous Snake]

Very good. Stop forcing your shit launchers, they're all shit

 

[EverydayBeast]

Why don't pc player unions agree on one store launcher? So many launchers is just wrong, and this isn't a concern on consoles.

 

[SunnySideGuy]

Man, they're making all the right decisions so far with BF6 I'm loving it!!

 

[salva]

Fyi It is slightly cheaper (10%) on EA than Steam if you have an EA Play sub (I have it via Game Pass for me).

 

[kevboard]

who are the weirdos that would even consider downloading it on the Epic Store?

I bet they exist... but, like, why?
