Looks real sweet, seems its' only available for some regions. Can't seem to get the beta branch myself.
Orgin already had what I want.
Good costumer service.

Origin is pretty great. I've been hacked, their automated system didn't award me a few Battlefield Veteran statuses, I've been locked out of my account because I lost my phone and 2FA codes
and Origin support has helped me each and every time. If that was Steam I imagine they'd just kinda lazily open my ticket 5 days after I submitted it, shrug, and close it.

My two main problems with Origin are lack of actual products since triple-a developers have a Steam boner and the fact that you can't gift games.
the only bad thing about origin is that they use your date of birth as their only form of proof of identity (at least they did the last time i used their support).
i mean come on we live in a world where we input random numbers in that shit, and you can't view or edit this info after you make your account

I remember I asked for help that I didn't get 2142 Veteran status despite having it on my Origin account and the good guy that I was talking to about it gave me Veteran status for [I]all[/I] Battlefield titles :v:
I got like 5 free games on Origin in the last year or so, so it is OK in my book. Have yet to play any of them though...

I'm able to change my DOB in the Origin client. Not sure how recently that was added.

Same thing happened to me except it was for BF1942. Just asked their live chat support about it, told me to wait a minute, then next thing I know I was surprised I had Veteran status for all the Battlefield games, and even all the older Battlefield titles from 1942 to Vietnam on my Origin library. Simply awesome customer support.
I remember opening customer support and just talked to the guy who was answering, he was relieved that i had no complicated issues but just wanted to chit chat, did so for 5 minutes and he got me a free copy of BF 4 after it.
I just randomly guess they can generate game keys for any game on their own command without someone checking how much they are generating because i got like 2 or 3 of their biggest games for free

First of all, they shouldn't be inputting random numbers in? If you can't be bothered to input correct info/information you'll remember, it's really your fault if you can't get back in. Second and third, you've been able to change all of your shit for a while now and there's more than DOB as authentication now.
For example: when I got hacked I gave them the number on a receipt that the hacker wouldn't have had access to due to him only having access to my Origin account and not my email. IIRC he asked for the answer to a security question after that, and then we started resetting my shit and he informed me that they added 2 Factor Authentication, which was something I enabled because 2FA was only disabled because I didn't know Origin had it.
All in all it took around 10 minutes and that included the wait for someone at live chat to be ready to talk.

My favorite thing about the whole experience is that the dude was trying to sell my account for 50 rubles and nobody bought it, even though that was a REALLY good deal for an account with the amount of shit I've got on there.
The Origin client is so much better than Steam
