Hackers Fix Battlefield 3’s Origin ‘Problem’

November 2, 2011 by Mat Growcott

With some players likening EA’s Origin service to a trojan, celebrations are had when hackers remove the feature from the game.

Internet hackers have released a crack which will allow legitimate Battlefield 3 buyers to play the game without the need for Origin. The service, which has been plagued with issues since release, has become synonomous with disinterested support and half-assed solutions – as well as collecting information about you, your habits and your hardware for marketing purposes.

No longer, if you believe Razor1911, who made their intentions in releasing the crack clear. 

"Razor1911 doesn't accept and support the online DRM "Origin" from EA.

"This release is dedicated to our fans worldwide who bought this game on legal way and don't want to install the trojan from Electronic Arts to play online."

Going down this route is always going to be risky business. No matter how much you hate Origin, there is definitely going to come a point where EA catch on and decide they don't want people accessing their servers without Origin. Despite the fact that this crack is only compatible with legal versions of the game, they will no doubt ban people, rather than learn why people don't want to use their service.
