Steam message about it; if you haven't gotten it already over the course of three years well now's a good time I suppose:

My only gripe is you need the Origin client on your PC and I hate it so.

Meh.. I already have this game on my ps3.. though not for long.. My Playstation Plus thing is about to expire :/
If anything, I'm sure they are gonna shut down the bf3 servers like they did with all the other EA servers.. I heard they had a sale before this happened.

Not much of a shocker if it would happen.

What I dislike about EA is they see and consider you as a customer when you own their premium products.

To be eligible to work for DICE as what sounds basically like an unpaid QA tester, you'll need to be both a PC player and a Battlefield 4 Premium member.
They already know what needs to be fixed and what are our expectations...
Other than that, this is definitely worth a try and as stated above, it would be a shame for you to miss this because of Origins...

I grabbed it but currently don't have anything to play it on so Origin needs to stay away from me for the time being.
I've just heard dumb shit about it is all. The privacy invading it does behind your back if that's even relevant still in 2014.

Ignoring for a second that Origin is in all respect a pile of bugriddled trash designed solely to compete with Steam, it's more the company behind it that nobody should trust with as much as a spork; Electronic Arts.
A company whose history consists of beating competition not by producing better games, but by buying them out, running viral attack campaigns and/or paying for exclusive rights to associated franchises.
A company well known for blatant lying, on-disc dlc, sequelism, oppressive crunching, sexual harassment and violation of consumer privacy.
So yeah...
