The real question is this content in the true sense of exclusive - meaning that it won't be coming to the other platforms (specifically the PC)?

If so, then tis a sad day indeed..

 

Also - anyone else a little miffed if the VO in the trailer was from the main character?

Please edit the OP to enlighten everyone that the content is simply timed exclusive. People keep coming in here and being misled.

I'm sure if you go look at the premium edition you will see a bunch of stuff that was taken out of the game just to make it.

 

Looks like some mounts and some weapons and armor.

Why am I paying $200 for a CE's to be treated like a second class consumer?  Bullshit like this is why people have reservation about all kinds of stuff you pull Bioware.  And FFS stop defending them they didn't have to make story content DLC a timed exclusive because of some contract, throw them some idiotic appearance and loot stuff not story content.

Please tell me how to, apparently I'm an idiot and can't see it. When I click "topic moderation" all that comes up is  ahide option.

I am not defending them, I was explaining why it appears that other consoles are getting the middle finger. 

 

Also, no one has any idea what is the time exclusive content is.

This is the entire point. EA made a deal with Microsoft, who wanted to give the finger to Sony and PC players. EA gets paid, Microsoft gets a head start, welcome to capitalism.

I understand Microsoft wanting to flip the bird.

But why does a 3rd Party allow themselves to be used to flip the bird? Of course $$$. That's a duh. But if their customer base is split across systems, all they are doing is telling those customers they don't want your money.

An exclusive game with exclusive content, no issues. A varied system game with exclusive content or timed exclusivity is contrary to logic and customer relations.

It's like if BMW sold cars in Alaska, but then told Alaskans we don't ship parts to Alaska, you have to get serviced in California... but hey, you are a valued customer.

So, Battlefield hardline beta only for PC and PS4, Dragon Age DLC first for Xbox? .... But EA is making Battlefield, or?

Mircosoft offered them more money than they expect to gain from a universal release of the content. The companies make deliberate choices, they don't just bumble around.

I was recommending you simply edit your first post to include the information, I have no idea how to do that. My apologies.

The average customer won't even notice. When its only 30 days it's like free money.It might put some people off , but not really enough to matter.

Just dropping by to say that I have canceled my preorder.  Apparently Bioware doesn't want or need the money of PS4 players. Thus I can only conclude they would rather I buy the game used.

They are releasing unknown content of the potentially far future one month later. The game is still coming out on the same day. 

 

I have to point out yet again that no one has any idea what content they have to wait for. You make just be barred from a Nug Juggling minigame for 30 days.

If xbox is getting exclusive content does that mean the content with things like the CE for pc/ps is different from the xbox stuff?

Your perogative of course. But better that the PS4 version outsells it :) which sends a much stronger message.

No, the CE stuff is Day 1 for everybody.

Duh. $$$. I noted that. I get it. $$$ makes the world go around. Everyone has a number.

What I don't get is why a company allows itself to be used to spite it's own customers. That is contrary to good business. Make a game exclusive or don't. Cut that deal or don't.

That is being dramatic for timed DLC.
