a98pmalcolm Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Ok NOT of to a good start. Picked up Battlefield 3 from Game last night for the midnight release. Got home put the disk in, it asked for the serial so I entered it, then it loaded up Origin and started to download off the net, not using the CD's giving an approximate time of 2 1/2 hours to download WHAT THE HELL? So midnight pick was a waste of time, and the disks are useless! Now it's 100% downloaded its not giving me the option to install and the percentage bar stays at 100% its meant to have downloaded 11.4GB but it says its now on 17.4GB of 11.4GB. Can anyone help what the hell is going on? This is rediculas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
