Well, if its a lower price you are looking for then, you would have to consider a currency weaker than INR to get it cheaper, e.g Paki Rupee. If you order from a website that makes you pay in USD for example, you would end up paying almost the same or even more.E.g. You would get it cheaper here http://www.ozgameshop.com/pc-games/battlefield-4-game-pc. Because you pay in Australian dollars. Now if they could ship to india..
 
@kru, that's a great idea! But where would I get the reloaded dvd? Also, where would I find legit keys for the cheapest price?
 
Does origin accept debit cards? That's the main problem. None of my visa/Mastercard worked when I tried to purchase through origin India.
 
To my knowledge, Axis bank debit cards work. SBI and PNB debit cards don't work. I don't know about the rest. Credit card or paypal are other options.
 
To the best of my knowledge , battlefield 4 is still broken and crashes sometimes in multiplayer when there are a lot of collisions due to levolution . Wait for more time and buy it during origin sale mostly in summer (may-june) it is 50% off . By that time there will be a good fix for the crashes .

So, this is what i found on the internet. I may be helpful for many people. Also, AXIS bank debit cards work everywhere.
In India, four types of Debit Cards are issued by banks - VISA, VISA Electron, MasterCard and Maestro.

Here is the information which is always written on a Debit Card:
1) Your name.[/color]
2) Expiration month and year.
3) 3 Digit CVV code which is again a number.

The above three, alongwith your address are used to authorise your transaction. RBI thought this wasn't enough. In some European countries and India, you need to register your Visa and MasterCard Debit Card online in your bank's portal and create a "password" for it.

For Visa, this password is called 'Verified by Visa.
For MasterCard, this password is called '3D SecureCode.

(I'll be using VbV and 3DSC to refer them.)

RBI made it mandatory that all transactions to Indian merchants require to be authorised via VbV/3DSC. This means, to shop online on Indian stores, you need to get your card registered on VbV/3DSC.
So, whenever you shop on an Indian website like Flipkart, eBay.in, Paytm et cetera.. after entering your card details (usually address as well), you're taken to your bank's authorisation gateway where you enter your VbV/3DSC. After entering the correct VbV/3DSC for your card, your transction is authorised and you are taken back to the merchant's page.
In simple words, for transactions on Indian stores, there are two steps:

1) Entering your card details on merchant's website....
]then being taken to another page for
]2) Authorisation via entering VbV/3DSC on your Bank's page
and then====> Coming back to the merchant's website

Now it's time to talk about International merchants like Steam, Google Play Store, iTunes/Apple, Paypal et cetera. These are International stores, more specifically, American. This VbV/3DSC sh!t is only mandatory in India and some European countries. And sites like Steam, Play Store, iTunes, Paypal don't use VbV/3DSC.

95% Indian Debit Cards WILL NOT work on the above stores. Why?

Because when you enter your details on, let's say Steam... your bank keeps on requesting for VbV/3DSC behind the scenes. And Steam knows nothing about it. So, the transaction fails - because your bank does not approve it.

[color=rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;font-size:13px;]Here is what banks should do/Here is how it should be:[/color]

[color=rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;font-size:13px;]1) On an Indian merchant, ask for VbV/3DSC to complete the transaction.[/color]
[color=rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;font-size:13px;]2) On an International merchant, DON'T ask for VbV/3DSC to complete transaction.[/color]

[color=rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;font-size:13px;]This is EXACTLY what happens for every Indian Credit Card. Indian Credit Cards work everywhere. Steam, iTunes, Paypal - everywhere. And also ask for VbV/3DSC on desi merchants.[/color]

[color=rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;font-size:13px;]But Debit Cards don't work. Because banks don't have the correct implementation.So, basically - even if your lol Debit Card has "International" stamped on it, it only means it will work on foreign ATMs to withdraw money. Don't be happy that "it will work everywhere, even websites. IT IS INTERNATIONAL." It won't work unless your bank has its implentation sorted. May be they will work on some non-VbV/3DSC merchants but consider those as abberrations.[/color]

Why am I not excited for this? Oh maybe because I absolutely loved BC2 but they totally, completely ruined BF3(in my opinion, of course). No pre ordering and most likely won't buy. It looks like a eye candier version of BF3. Sad
Looks like I didn't stay true to my word. how surprising... lol. Bought it and played 70 hours, bored of it already though.
