You can get STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT on the Russian Origin sotre of just £19.99
You must use a VPN to do this, free ones like hola work just fine.

DO NOT buy from Russian federation Origin store, you will only get a choice between Russian and Polish language packs on install. I made this mistake and Origin refunded me and I just went Mexican instead.
It was 1999 rubles at the time.

I've been told to avoid Hola by the IT guys at work. I used Unlimited VPN on Android without problem.
But im not sure if they stopped it but i only install to use a VPN on occasion, then uninstall

Maybe I'm being dense but using Hola set to Russia just brings up the US store at $59.99?

Have to agree, stop using Hola it's silly when you can use other ones these days.

How much is it on the Mexican store?

If Polish is available then there are a lot of people in the UK that can make good use of this deal, so it's good that it is available for them.

$40 but Hola does not give you that amount, it goes to the US price? You have to use a different proxy service, Tunnelbear ???

Title is very misleading!! @origin(in some far off country) might want to add via VPN to title.

£26 is still decent. To use the Mexican Origin via Hola it works best with region set to Argentina

As above you only get Russian language. Use flyvpn and buy from Mexico or Brazil Origin.

To be honest ,mine arrived the other day ,it's great but kind of average ,I don't think it will have true longevity like bf4

How do you buy from Brazil vpn, it has an application process and boa compra and says it verifies via email or telephone

I have an even more revolutionary idea : if you want to pay Russian prices : move to Russia. Same applies if you would prefer to pay the Brasilian price. VPN deals. How about some UK tax loophole deals as well to complete the nationality dodging picture.

Thats a relief, for a moment there I thought we had a great sneaky deal :smiley:

Considering Origin doesn't do proper prices for people in the Channel Islands, for example (they redirect to the Irish store and give Euro prices including VAT), there's no reason to give Origin any benefit of the doubt.
Same applies to Steam charging VAT where it shouldn't be applied (but they do show UK prices for Channel Islands users).

Probably people who just saw the unedited title, took it at face value, and hit hot without actually reading the comments or checking it out for themselves. What I don't get is why the deal hasn't just been expired already.

DO NOT BUY FROM RUSSIA!! you end up with Russian language only. I got burned with this kind of thing before, I only buy through Mexico or India now.

How does this work, I was just reading that one you pay for the game you have to pay again for access to play? So if I bought from mexico/russia does it affect how much you'd have to pay to play as well?

Smaller maps are great fun but the larger maps seem very unbalanced with the hero and vehicle boosts, Mexican store price is nice though.

Other than Russia it seems like Brazil is the cheapest at £23.

As they're charging 1990's cartridge prices for digitally distributed media do I get to move to the 90's?

not in English so for a couple of quid more get the mexico/brazil deal which includes En language packs.

Have you noticed when you pay EA via Origin, the money goes to a S.a.r.l Limited Liability Company in Luxemburg?
Why don't you do a little research on Google and see what that means.
And then take the pole from you're **** and get of that high horse. Paying them via the UK store isn't helping the UK's tax issues, but you would have known that if you were slightly smarter.

i did this to buy titanfall last year and it was possible to change the language by using a trick. I dont know if you can do that with this game tho.

The large companies do everything in their power to keep their tax bill to the bare minimum while the government turns a blind eye so is it not right that I would try to do the same to keep my own outgoings to a minimum.
I'm all ears for tax loophole posts btw... Remember tax avoidance is legal!!!

As long as you're fully aware that you can't criticise said companies if you're all for loopholes.
It's a decent deal considering how much of a rip off the game is otherwise. Going to hope it goes down a bit more on key sites though. Not sure how long I'll need to wait.

Why would I criticise them for looking after their own interests and operating within the law.
I have read about the game and played the beta, I'm a big battlefront fan but I diddnt like the game felt like battlefield with lasers. Still heat for the deal.

Not sure why I find this thread hilarious. But I just do. Great game though - it's not a hardcore game, but like the movies it's just great fun.

Exactly and that is why I will 'avoid' tax in every single way that I can. If it was in my means then I would do it more often.
