Of course you want to know — When do I get it?


We strive at all times to get it to you sooner but here are some indications:

If we say In Stock, we dispatch same day (if ordered before 14:00 on a working day) and depending on where you stay it will be with you the next working day (Main Centres) or the next working day after that (Regional Areas). If you are in a remote area it may take an additional working day (a day longer than Regional).

If we say In Stock (You can also collect in cpt), the stock is available from our Cape Town warehouse and you can collect on the same working day if your payment has been authorised and you collect before 5pm.

If we say dispatched between X and Y days then it takes X to Y days to receive from a supplier and it will then be with you within a working day after dispatched (Main Centres) or the working day after that (Regional Areas). If you are in a remote area it may take an additional working day (a day longer than Regional Areas).

If we say Pre-order it means that your item will be dispatched to you on the day it's released.

We always try our very best to get it to you as soon as possible but cannot guarantee same day delivery.

And then there's a Friday, sigh... Try order early on a Friday, we can then try our best to get it to you on the same day (Main centres), otherwise we will have to get it to you during the next week.

If this is all too confusing, call us on 0861 222 989 or send an e-mail to info@takealot.com. One of our friendly employees will get back to you pronto.

Bruce, South Africa. 21 July 2012

Honestly the best game I have ever played. Currently sitting at over 375 hours of multiplayer gameplay, and still loving it. Highly recommend going Premium after buying this, as this gives you all the expansions and some extra content for less than you'd pay to buy it all individually.

Lebogang Onassis, Soshanguve. 29 October 2011

Yo Richard M hope you get to read this in time no man if you have the disk you don't have to download Origin is kind of of tricky to say the least.

install origin from disk after all is installed log on to origin , after that don't click on that battlefield icon from origin just as yet go back to the disk and click install when it ask for the second time this time it will download the game from the disk . to make sure check if your dvd rom led is blinking or whatever , that should do the trick.


hope that helps.


i love this game

Arran, MILNERTON. 4 January 2012

Really good price from Takealot. Paid for it at 7am and at 11am it was delivered to my door. Big thumbs up there.
You really do need a decent internet connection to play and update the game. But once you passed the 3.9gb update patch (map pack that you can purchase later) the game is just hours and hours of fun.

Josua, BELLVILLE. 31 October 2011

not true at all, you must be doing something wrong.

Richard, Lambton. 28 October 2011

Would love to write a decent review about this game, but unfortunately that's going to be very hard due to the actions of EA/Origin.

All I can say is that I've never spent so much money buying a coffee coaster before. The only option you have with this game is to download. It will not allow you to install from the DVD and at 11.3 GB and having a 3GB cap, that's 4 months before I'll even see what the game looks like.

Oh well, onto the back shelf with you to join all the other useless stuff I have.

Chris, ZEERUST. 21 November 2011

Kindly note that EA is correcting the advantages of the veteran players by balancing the weapons a bit more, this will be a compulsory download next week.

So if you want to take advantage of the imbalance of the weapons (to get some easy kills) as is the current situation get the game NOW - but you will be in for a big download that will fix all the issues as reported the past 3 weeks.

I WISH BF3 AND MW3 DID NOT RELEASE THIS CLOSE TO EACH OTHER (it result in difficult choices for the family), but BF3 is definitly the more mature game. ENJOY

Douglas, South Africa. 14 May 2012

Great game only let down by average single player campaign, being forced to use origin and the regular large patches it gets to prevent cheating for the excellent team muliplayer. Still if the above mention does not bother you and you have a newer computer it is well worth the asking price.

LJ, South Africa. 9 January 2012

Warning - The game requires a 3.2GB update by download.

My initial installation from the DVD's installed fine, no download required for the 11GB - but my game doesn't work after the installation.

Downloading the update now - hopefully it works after that.

Austin, Garsfontein. 31 October 2011

Game installed from discs fine, it just logs into origin, enter code and installed. It may look like its downloading game but is in fact installing from discs. Dont know what that other dude was on about about having to download game.

Stefan, South Africa. 11 September 2012

Best game that had ever came out on this planet!! Dis 'n "moet" koop vir almal wat van speletjies hou wat jy saam met jou friende kan speel. Tanks, fliegtuie, groot en klein gebiede tesame met die feit dat jy ure se pret kan he!!!

Robert, South Africa. 23 February 2012

Good gameplay, good graphics, dedicated servers and huge maps...what more do you want! :)

Kevin, Shakaskraal. 3 November 2011

Aside from a few hiccups at launch, the new battle log and also the game play are truly amazing. I would really recommend getting this game, best team tactical shooter out right now.

Worth the wait and the wasted time trying to get it to work :)

jaco, Vaalpark. 13 November 2011

FPS of the year..

Jonathan, Cascades. 13 January 2012

Brilliant game. You will never be disappointed after buying this game. Loads of persistence gives you the assurance that's money well spent!
BF3 FTW!

farrell, South Africa. 24 December 2012

as jy die game soos nou gekoop(12/2012) het,maak seker jy het genoeg data want dit makeer 6.845 gig vir die update...alles van laas jaar tot nou toe.
MAAR DIT IS DIE MOEITE WRD :)

Joe, South Africa. 3 November 2011

BEWARE !!! DOES NOT RUN ON XP !

Johan, CENTURY CITY. 9 December 2011

Best and most addictive game ever! Very interactive and very very intense! I would recommend this game to everyone!

Pierre, DIE BOORD. 28 October 2011

The other review prompted to write the following. If you run the installer from the discs, then dw, Origin isn't downloading it exactly, it's just "downloading" it from the disc. It got me at first as well, but if you check your network traffic, you should notice that nothing is actually being downloaded from the net.

Martin, JOHANNESBURG. 8 November 2011

Great game graphics are good. To get around the download issue copy CD1 to your hard drive to a folder called BF3 and launch setup from there when it asks for disk 2 delete content of BF3 folder and copy disk 2 to that folder and you are on your way. The Origin screen still says downloading but it actually downloading from your hard disk.
