Question
I know games can be preloaded on steam (downloaded before the day of release so you can play it as soon as it unlocks) but does anyone know if EA's new client Origin will offer the same feature?
(I'm hoping to preload before the release of Battlefield 3 on Friday (UK)) Am I going to have to use the probably heavily overloaded servers on the day of release?
Answer
Yes.
I got this email on the 21st:
