Will this game be download-able through EA store?

Will we be able to download this game through EA link/online store?
I know there isn't any official annoucment about this but what do you think?
I think it will be a great idea if they let us pre-order+download the game a day or two before the relase...

If i do not err, it has been discussed before. It certainly has its advantages.
But I'll only download the game if I get a box later anyway. Otherwise I'll order it so I can get a box. I need to have boxes of the good games. Must. Have.

Edit: Seems I was right, we have a thread over here, albeit it's a little old ;)

If it is available for download i'll still be buying the box, I just don't trust those online downloader doodles.

I will be buying the box, either way. but till it gets shipped over here it will take like a week so downloading it before would be great.

Its going to be a few GBs of downloads, and after buying the booster pack ( Northern Strike for BF2142 ) and having MULTIPLE problems due to the fact they didn't tell you where or how to enter your CD key - along with dealing with corrupt downloads....

It would be a huge file with a tendency to cause corrupt downloads... and EA store sucks :(
I would download it in your case though, can't miss out... but GL with the dang EA store.

Well... If they allow a pre-release download, that would be great... getting a retail box is a must obviously.

Currently, nearly every big bugest EA game they have published has been avliable on their online store. Nothing official has been said, however I imagine that it very likely would.

Yeah, the big question is when... if a pre-released download, that would be great.
If they make it available for download let's say 1 month after game release, it's a good thing as well but most people will get the retail box by then.
