can i play battlefeild 1 without origin access

Hi 

I'm not a big fan of subscription montly/year is there a way to buy battlefeild 1  without   origin on pc  or it's impossible. 

When  i'm on their website  I see standard édition at 6.49   then it show basic sub. and i see the revolution one at 13.33  for premium  is that it  ? 

I can still buy the game at 13.33 without  any subs and play online ? 

Really new to EA and origin it's my first visit  for both site . 

Thanks for your time 😉 

  • @Kirrikay You do not have to pay monthly/yearly. You can pay for the game, but you need the Origin client (which is available for free here ), just like you need the Steam client for let's say Playerunknown Battleground). The game is launched from the client (just like in Steam) and you need the client open (also like in Steam when it comes to the MP titles). 

    At the editions comparaisons, it should be a buy button. The standard edition is currently (for my region) 5 euro, while the Revolution Edition is 10 euro.

    The best bang for the buck is the BF1/Titanfall 2 Ultimate Bundle (23 euro), but if you want only the complete BF1, than the Revolution edition is the one you want. 


    So...no, no subscriptions needed and you do have the option to buy the game. But yes, the button to buy the game should be displayed more clearly. This is indeed a shortcoming. 

    P.S.: added more information in my previous post.

    @Kirrikay You can play BF1 without a subscription (Access Basic or Premier).

    You can't play it without the Origin client (same as with most of the Steam MP games, you will need the client).

    https://www.origin.com/irl/en-us/store/battlefield/battlefield-1/offer-selection

    Under each edition is the current price. Hope it helps you. 

    Again, there is no need for a subscription, if you buy the game. 10 euro is a sweet deal for the complete edition. 

    As a guide, in case that the link won't work:

    a.Press the orange button that says: Get the game

    b.Look for the Buy now button (not the ones that are saying join) and press that one

    c.See the orange buttons for each edition and select the one you want to buy (press that button). 

    d.Complete the transaction

    I'm closing this thread to stop it from being necroed.
     
    You don't need EA Play to Battlefield games online any standard edition will work. For Xbox you will need Xbox Live gold and for PlayStation user you are going to need PSN+. 
     
    If you have any issues with Battlefield 1, please make a new topic about your problems and what kind of steps you have tried to solve them.
