The real question is why you still actively buy things for that game. But thats a whole story I don't want to get into.

That's the phrasing I'm confused with.

If it was released, I would figure they would just say released, rather the "pre"load.

Well I know it comes out in March, and what would they mean by 'PRE-load'?

Meaning you can download it, but you can't install it until the release date.

The Pre-load from EA Link is tomorrow. The Official release is 3 days after that.

The point is, EA lets the good little people like me that pre-ordered it on EA Link to download it early, and have it ready to install the day it comes out so they can jump into the action. It also stops people from playing it earlier than the official release date.

They have, it's on the 5th of March? Pre-loading just lets people that pre-ordered it download it early so they don't have to download it the day it is officially released.

It takes longer to download it than it does to install.

Plus, this way it takes a lot of the load off their servers.

Actually, it's official release is 6-7 days from pre-load, not 3 as I was told.

EA has announced the release date of the Battlefield 2142: Northern Strike booster pack to be March 8. The booster pack is also available for pre-load today for those that preordered it.

amazon has it being sold from 9th march
if i were you i wouold use CD wow it will still be £6 and you will not have to pay postage so its basically the same as EA link but you have a hard copy back up

edit: CD wow doesn't do it [yet]
but i'm sure theres some other website that will do free postage and only charge £6 somewhere

For those of you who have downloaded it from EA Link. Take a look at NS listed in your "My Games" list. They've added a countdown till release/playability.

As of right now its at 18hrs 34mins.
