Battlefield Premium

defitnly gonne get it, i wonder if the 5 unique assignments will have 5 unlocks only premium owners can get.
Its a little bit off a pitty though most off us already own b2k but stil premium will be worth the $ instead off buying all new upcoming dlc's seperatly, besides the bonus content looks good for me.

I would have had to spend some serious time thinking about it if it was subscription as I heard rumor that it would be, but since all future expansions are included and it's one time, you can count me in.

Precisely. I really don't like subscriptions. This way I get 4 DLC for $10 than buying them individually (assuming the pricing remains the same as B2K), and bonus features to boot.

Looks pretty cool, Not sure how i feel about the priority in servers thing though. I don't like PAYING for attention.

Looks pretty cool. I bet the "unique in-game knife" is probably the tomahawk weapon you use when playing as Dima in the BF3 campaign, which is pretty lame.

 

[Mr.SaJoRa]

doesnt sound too bad. just the DLCs make it worth buying as you get all of them pretty cheap.

Honestly, it just seems a little crazy to plop down another $50 for this game so soon. That said, I probably will anyway, just because of the pressure.

If you like BF3 and you are going to buy the next DLCS then the cost would be $60 and this is $50 for that and more I am going to buy it just because it saves money and gives me the chance to reset my SPM (my SPM sucks because I idle servers so much)

 

[Mr.SaJoRa]

lets not forget about the 2 weeks early access for the DLCs. thats what you get ps3 players lol

CoD Elite much?

...Really? Really, Axeman? Cause 608 is so terrible?

This is why I hate stats in games. People put way too much stock in numbers that no one but themselves actually care about. The only time anyone ever checks another player's stats is to see if someone is cheating or not. Or before a competitive match in which case I would totally want bad stats to give the enemy team a false impression so they feel even worse when they get ROFLstomped.

I'm convinced my K/D is so low because everyone cares so freaking much about their precious stats that no one wants to attack an objective, leaving me to attack it alone. It's part of the reason I stopped playing non-competitive matches.

Here's a revolutionary concept. Let's just play the game and stop thinking people are checking your stats and gonna go "WHAT?!?!?!?! 608 SPM!!!! This guy is the worst player I've ever seen! He couldn't hit a broadside of a barn!" Or whatever goes through one's mind when they have a stat that is far better than the vast majority of BF3 players.

And now I'll just sit back and await the inevitable backlash that will occur from this post. That will surely involve someone saying, "You're only saying stats don't matter cause your stats suck."

The first I heard of it, it sounded like a complete waste. Someone told me it was like that stat tracking type thing they released with MW3 plus like 4 maps and 4 guns which would have been the biggest joke for $50. But 20 maps, 20 guns, 10 vehicles, and 4 new game modes? I'm sold.

Pretty cool, not sure if I would get it though.

Well, I don't know what the knife in that mission looked like as I only got to the point of going upstairs from the cubicals.

But here's what the ACB would look like. A $270 bayonet....me gusta:w00t:

As for the premium, I'm still up in the air about it. I'm not one to pay to get ahead.

The maps, guns vehicles and game modes are also counting B2K. That's 4 maps, 10 weapons, 6 vehicles I think, and I believe conquest Assault was the only gametype added?

If Premium was 10 dollars less than what it is now ($40), it would be a much better deal. As is, I don't see it being worth it. Sure I save $10 on the expansions, but that's pretty much it for me. I don't need a unique knife, or dog tags, I like the ones I have. Unique camos = everything but default and Spec Ops basically. All they're doing is adding more to the list. Like I said, its not worth it, unless someone gave me $10 to cover the difference I'm willing to pay.

And so we follow the steps of COD...<sigh>

Wild the reason I want to reset my SPM is due to server filling and getting a lower SPM. SPM shows how much you PTFO and how much of a teamplayer you are it is one of the main stats to show your skill off because sure you can have a good KDR by camping but to get a good SPM shows how much of a team player you are and how much you PTFO I like having a high SPM so when we do competitive matches people know that I will PTFO against them. I always see someones KDR and will mention it but SPM is the biggest factor in how much a player PTFO's.


Not saying that by camping and just getting kills you cant have a high SPM but you wont get as high as someone who PTFO's

This still goes back to my first paragraph. It only shows you that you PTFO. Again no one checks your stats other than yourself and people suspecting of cheating. Why one would need a abstract statistical answer to tell you if you are playing the objective or not escapes me. I know how I play and how good or not good I am I don't need abstract pats on the back.

I guess my main point is stats are the most cancerous things to hit video games. At a minimum they shouldn't be made public so less people would care so much what these people half a world away think about their leet skills based on abstract numbers.
