A lot of people mention Origin Mexico when buying VPN, but Battlefront is currently £5 less on the Brazilian version of the site. Use a VPN service like TunnelBear (500MB free every month, Chrome extension) to select Brazil and purchase for R$ 129.90, or £22.55 (according to Google).
Alternatively, £45.10 for the game and season pass (Ultimate edition)

Turn VPN on
Go to origin.com, url should be https://www.origin.com/en-mx/store/
Add to Cart
Go to Basket then click checkout
Proceed to Checkout
Sign in
Not sure what you are presented with here but we have paypal set as default so it prepopulated , but either way, select paypal and then turn off VPN.
Click continue to paypal, when you get to paypal log in screen you should just see the email, password, stay logged in checkbox and Blue Login Button. Also make sure its in English.
Log in with you details, proceed through any screens, turn on VPN and click continue to proceed
Select check box on Origin Checkout that you agree to terms etc and then hit pay now and that should work
For anyone trying to buy, you can't. EA have put some CPF protection so your payment will get declined every time. Only Mexio origin works through VPN.

I can confirm it worked via Brazil. Got the email saying I would receive a phone call but it mustn't actually happen.
Took about 30 minutes for them to authorise the payment from paypal but it is downloading as we speak in origin

Can you use your regular Origin account for this, or do you need a "throwaway" one dedicated just for this game?
Are there any regional issues after you get the game and turn of VPN, or will it forever be recognised as a UK game / player / account?
charleaward81 to MrSaver
20 Nov 15#69
never use throw away or you will lose the game normally origin works fine. Log in the client first and if using chrome it normally picks it up and logs you into website.
Not sure what browser you are using but we only ever use chrome when purchasing from non UK sites, then afterwards just delete everything.
Also HOLA not working, tried last night and today and not working at all, used TunnelBear and worked first time.
Just remember when doing this to turn off VPN before you proceed and click on any button that send you to Paypal and turn it back on when you are about to leave paypal

Thanks for the quick reply. I've tried this now and still the same message after Pay Now on Origin. :-(
Firstly I activate VPN and add item to my cart, then go to pay, click on Paypal, on the Paypal screen I click VPN off, pay through Paypal, come back to the Origin screen and click VPN back on and click Pay Now. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Maybe my bank could be blocking the transaction?
charleaward81
19 Nov 151#59
on next screen it gives you paypal login, this is when you turn it off. Go through paypal and then finally when get back onto Origin Checkout Page, you will see it display your paypal email address and then asks you to tick to confirm you understand terms etc , turn VPN back on and press Pay now.
That is process I follow

19 Nov 151#57
tried twice no joy on either, 2nd time added details to paypal inc address and contact for a steakhouse in Sao Paulo used correct tax code and plus had money in paypal balance so no need to use card and both rejected by something called boacompra after about 20 minutes.
It worked at mexico via VPN for £26ish just remember to turn off VPN before you go through Paypal or it wont work, also went through Quidco and it worked, tracked at £1.83
Vantage91 to charleaward81

Any idea why mine isn't working? I keep getting this when going through the Mexico one:
"We're unable to process your payment right now. Use a different payment method or try again later. [ref. #4014]"
I turn off the VPN just before I go through Paypal like you mentioned.

Its probably the same lame ass excuse and reasoning that my 14 year old son uses and his excuses for not doing a sodding thing I ask of him.
Though at that age I suppose its cant be frowned upon too much as he is still only child but at 35 years plus, well that lame ass excuse for sitting on your ass doing absolutely nothing, doesn't really work the same.
Reminds me of the job going at my little ones school for an Education Centre Nourishment Consultant, that is one decent career to get into

What is this gaming career you speak of? :laughing:
seany1977
19 Nov 15#48
I agree. I started my gaming career on PC, before consoles and never liked the fiddly nature of multiple keys (WASD) for movement, crouch, jump, run etc. I'm not a great FPS player but I am more competent and feel more comfortable with a controller. It feels more natural and I always remove aim assist. I play PS2 with mouse and keyboard because it has no controller option and I am useless.

What does the SEASON PASS actually do?
lukiezgo to Graham1979
18 Nov 15#16
It gives you access to all future DLCs...I personally would blind buy season passes because you don't know what you're getting
crackshotkv to Graham1979
19 Nov 15#47
Gives you access to the rest of the game. I would personally wait till all the DLC has been released before shelling out on it.

you must be a beast then. i frequently come top in cod, titanfall and to a lesser extent in battlefield, i'd say im pretty competent at shooters but i was not having a good time with the beta.
bearman3784
19 Nov 15#45
I use controller on every PC game I play and never noticed a big disadvantage in the Beta, as long as you are reasonable with a controller in the first place you will only lose out to the better KB+M players
johnnicholas92372446

adam0812
19 Nov 15#42
The cost of having the base price of games not increase I guess but having more maps on the season pass than are in the base game is just obnoxious, say what you want about evolve but at least you got the maps free so as to not splinter the player base. I would rather they did this and had cosmetic micro transactions, let the people that want this stuff pay for it and let the people who just want to play, play
adam0812
19 Nov 15#41
The irony in your comment. No aim assist is just a death sentence for those using a controller. No amount of 'git gud' will give you a chance against a KB+M player. Shame really, I would have bought the game otherwise

origin Brazil doesn't work it has a payment protection behind it
Also does this work fully on the UK origin? Do you just get a code to redeem?

It worked. Received the code by e-mail after about 20 minutes.

19 Nov 15#36
I used that tax code generator thing and completed payment with paypal but it still says the payment is pending on my Paypal account, on Origin it said they will give me the code once i pay the full amount. Hope i haven't just wasted £22!

Hopefully its a simple refund form brazil
Aeschylus
18 Nov 151#3
worth noting also, No aim assist for controller players (I got destroyed in the Beta, so went with X1) and I beleive you lose your Origin refund rights if you do the VPN trick

Good luck, i hope you guys can do it to :stuck_out_tongue:

Worked fine for me. Used the CPF code from the web site and used Paypal. Downloading it Now
Tin2k7
18 Nov 15#24
Its only certain products and certain values, think its because the bank they use for method of payment put it on everything to be sure. Had trouble getting other stuff too, like Brazilian club football shirts :-/
I'm loving the game though. If you're after just a fun multiplayer game then you'll probably like it, if you're after something super serious then maybe not.

I see, but what about nuveem, that seems to work fine without CPF. Its around £26 on mexico. So far, have you found the game justifying the £29 price tag?
People have tried this and it still doesn't work. The payment gets declined.

Its not EA, its the Brazilian government. You require a Brazilian tax number to purchase, this is standard online in Brazil. Its not just. Mexico either, I bought mine from South Korea, cost me £29. Because of the time difference and release date difference, I've been playing since Monday.

Beta was a lot of fun on dropzone but I didn't get along with the big map. Started playing it 1st person aiming down sights like Battlefield but found it helped a lot to play it in 3rd person mode and hip fire everywhere. Made the game more immediate and fun.
