    Retail Disk Install Question


    Hello all!

    I will be installing battlefield 4 from the disk. I have EA access.

    Will I need to keep the disk in the drive or will I be able to convert it to a digital copy?

    Thanks.

    :)

    I would delete the digital version and play the version from the disk...which may require an install again. Once I installed the characters from the disk they were still locked when I started the game and found out it was starting the digital version and
    not the retail disk (even though I chose the disk tray option to open the game). Hope this helped.

    Retail Disk Install Question

    You will have to keep the disc in the console. The disc based game cannot be converted to a digital install.

    Hope this helps. Good Luck!!

    If you just bought the game try and return it to the retailer for a replacement disk. Other than that, I would borrow a friends copy, install it to your HDD and see if your copy will work after installing it. Cheap easy and very effective way to get around
    getting a new copy if that is out of the question

    Is there any way to fix this?

    How/Why is the console somehow moving???? Disk installation to the HD is a very good idea to try.. The disk repair shop will be able to tell you if they can fix it or not. You don't need to send a disk out for buffing!!!! GTA5 should still be under
    the retail warranty for 30 days. GOOD LUCK!!!

    witcher 2

    will probably be a while, and probably cost more to download then to buy retail.

    plus you can't trade it in and wastes HDD space.. the game is 2 disks though I think installed it was like 13 GB installed on my HDD.
