EA Origin. Like or no like?

[Star Knight]

I'm not liking it so far, the fact some games are 'origin exclusive.' Just seems to me like another piece of crap software you need just to play a game.

They tried it once before back when Spore launched. It fell flat on its face. Guess the guys at EA think "Failed Plan + New Paint = Overthrower of Best Plan"

Well, I switched to it when Bioware got hacked. Blah blah blah later, and I stop using it.

While I like the idea of a competitor to Steam, EA is my last choice  to be that competitor.

there are lots of competitors..they just aren't as good.

I like that I can register all my Steam EA games on it. That's kind of cool. That's about it though. And I better not have to buy Mass Effect 3 off of the thing.

[Badgerman of DOOM]

But this time they're gonna have shit like BF3 backing it instead of Spore. I could see that giving it some traction tbh

[Maxon]

I don't hate Origin, just find it abit annoying, with friends and other games already on Steam.  Only thing I'll probably be getting on it is like Battlefield 3...so I basically have one game for an entire program, at least for awhile lol

[CaffeinePowered]

They announced that BF3 will have no mods, no dev kits, and no customization outside of what EA puts in themselves.


Whelp, there goes my excitement for the game  :-\

Not really that surprising after Bad Company 2.

Sadly a result of them using a bajillion middleware technologies to make the game instead of liscensing an engine or making one 100% thesmelves. Apparently to compile a map it takes weeks worth of work before its even playable in-game and you need to have direct access to source code to do it.

So it's mostly because the way they made the game makes it impossible to mod/map without giving out the full source code and usage rights to all the middleware they use. Which obviously is major lawsuit material against them from the middleware companies.
