Something you need to get Battlelog it seems, which in turn is something you need just to look at your fucking stats
What an arse about

Ah, yeah I have no idea about that. When you go to the battlelog web page it just asks you to log in

Just use your EA details. I assume you'll already be registered since you play FIFA. I managed to get in fine. Once you play the game it automatically registers you.

I deleted my game because it uses origin, they will gain information about your computer etc and then sell it to other companies.
If you look .HERE at amazon reviews for the pc version you can see out of 165 custom reviews the game averages 2/5 stars due to how bad origin is, says it all really

Oh come on Sunz, now you're just being daft Facebook retains more information about you on a daily basis but I bet you still use that?

And I don't use face book.
I deleted bf3 because origin is horrible, in 2004 when counter strike source was released it had a ingame server browser so why 7 years later we have some horrible slow system for bf3 ill never know and the fact it's got 2/5 (40%) from a decent amount of reviews on amazon (was about 170 people) shows the pc community widely hates the system.
The game is good online but getting online isn't an enjoyable and fluid system and therefore Dice/EA fucked up big time for pc gamers and I think shows buy the low ratings for pc versions.

Battlelog isnt that bad, yes it needs changes but if you bothered to read the forums you'd notice that the PC community is raving about the game, Origin isn't bothering many people either, don't see why it should?
You'd also notice that DICE are taking feedback from players on certain sites and implementing ideas in to the game, reddit for example has a few devs that are active on the boards. People were moaning about no jeep horns, they are now patching them in. They have also made small changes to Battlelog already.
How is Origin 'stealing information' about your computer then?

£31 from bee. I will buy it, it's just annoying having to pay £9 over the odds for it

There is a far far simpler way than that Do what I do, and blow his brains out with a shotgun, pick up his class and throw myself an ammo box. Pick up your own weapon, job done

Well it was obviously shit to start with, if the company needed feedback on Origin I would be shocked, A blind man could see it was an awfully slow, awkward and outdated way to play the game in all forms, it's going backwards not forwards.
If they really listen then they will remove you having to use origin at all as this is what the people asked for and being able to do a manor of simple things ingame, server browesing, choosing which mode to player etc.
They didn't need to use this "spyware" program but they choose to and I'm glad its bitten them in the ass.
Check the Origin Eula, it tells you there they will be storing information about your installed programs, uninstalled programs, hardware, software etc all to then sell it to companies.
All they had to do was release it on steam and it would have been 1000 times easier to use and no one would have complained about it.
Just because it's not on the offical BF3 forum doesn't mean aren't expressing a dislike for it.
For ME the game is ruined because of Origin and A lot of people have said this to.
And you can buy the game for £20 online, it will give you a CD key for origin, its how the gamining community I'm involved in got theres and it works. Cjs Cdkeys <<< Buy the russian one then install the language pack thats 870mb worked perfectly.
