Title says it. Already have an Origin Account and played the game since Day 1, but I'd love to continue playing on Steam, but I want to know if, as an EA Play Pro member, will I still get the Premium BP when playing through Steam?
EA Play Pro members get everything above plus:
Also Microsoft Game pass was $5 on pc because that was technically on beta. It was mentioned from the start that $5 was the beta pricing.
@PastaGabe Good to know, I am probably keeping that one till January at least. Addicted to Flight Simulator more than I thought I would be. :P
Cancelling my sub as well. As someone else said, battle pass was #1 reason for keeping it, free games was 2nd. With battle passes it made the sub worthwhile as it paid for itself over the course of a year but now it won't. Most of the free games aren't worth it and I only tried them out. When this issue is combined with the extra grind on the battle pass, means I'll cancel.
Thank you for this update and verification.
Subsequently I have canceled my Play Pro subscription, which I had previously maintained since the inception of the Origin Access program; Apex is the only reason I kept Origin installed and was the only reason I retained the subscription at this point. This decision is bafflingly insulting given how massively profitable subscription services are.
Congratulations on giving a whole lot of people a reason to suddenly remember that they're paying for a subscription service, and to question the value that it's providing them for their money.
Then I will be cancelling my EA pro membership and I will report this to my friends that play so they can cancel as well.
People talking about cancelling need to chill.
It is a $10, yes it sucks to have to pay for something that was included before and it sucks to lose benefits from your subscription.
But if you are telling me you were paying a $108 only for something that costs $10, you need to re-evaluate your decision making.
That said
recently Microsoft Game pass for pc raised their price from $5 to $10, their reasoning was they included EA play (basic I am guessing)
That may be an alternative for those who are "OUTRAGED"
I mean you would get all the game pass stuff in addition.
And yes I agree it is a bad decision to try to sneak this is, they should have communicated it a season early so people could save their coins from the last battle pass and would not be forced to shell out $10 more on top of the pass. Very bad decision not to do this as people will remember you as greedy.
You're out of touch on this.
From a yearly subscriber, that is a $60 dollar swing, $30 lost value and $30 to supplement the pass, if you decide to buy the passes. There are 3 seasons in a year. So you're now shelling out $138 and losing the value in the initial $108. I've already cancelled mine, but I was yearly, so I have until late next year if they do make this value available again.
i have officially canceled my pro membership over not getting the battle pass for season 7.... im sorry but it was a nice benefit but with not putting out any games recently a stupid gun charm is not even remotely close to good compensation for play pro members.....
EA_David, thanks for the answer, and this is not directed at you, but this is really poor. I stopped my sub a few months ago, so actually not affected by this, but I would be livid if I was still subscribed. A gun charm? LOL. Not impressed, EA Pro is your premium subscription, the Season Pass should definitely be included.
