brief artcile on it  blah thisanoys me

Blame activision, the only reason EA made this battlefield 3 premium shit is to suck money out of us, and for the ones who don't pay force us to buy it or have a shit gaming experience.

I bought it.  I was going to buy the DLC map packs anyway so I figured I'd buy all of them upfront.  Time value of money.

Meh, this just sounds like a waste of money. They're not actually changing anything gameplay wise, and I don't mind waiting a couple of weeks for free DLC. Anyone who actually buys this service is just stupid imo.

If they fix the issues with crashing that I've had since launch, I just may buy it.

Sounds like a personal PC issue.  I had issues at launch with CTD but it was resolved by DICE via an early early patch.  

someone sis missing thepoint this should be free....

Didn't DICE say at one point they would never charge for DLC map packs?

EA screw you?  you better contact fox news

the worst part is in his little speech when presenting it he siad "they" were listining to our feedback

i was like o really?? clearly not

So...you guys keep talking about having to pay for DLC, but the article never said anything about paying for DLC. It said you could pay a fee to get some customizable aesthetic shit that no one needs and get the DLC TWO WEEKS EARLY. "Two weeks early" doesn't mean you'll have to pay for the DLC two weeks later.

well as awsome as free maps would be its not going to happen  if it does i will buy u any game of ur choice

Blame Activision? Really? It's EA thinking it's a good idea. Literally, the CEO is the biggest money grubbing piece of shit in the industry I've ever seen. He legtimately wants to nickel and dime people more than anyone I've ever seen. He's pitched the idea that in Battlefield, if a player were to run out of ammo, a message would pop-up telling them they can pay $1 for more ammunition. That's just ridiculous. Activision may be greedy, but EA takes it to an entirely new level.

Every title of theirs is this heavily monetized.

 

You'll pay for the map packs.

Trust me, they won't be free. That said however, this is just an upfront payment to get all the Maps and shit a few weeks early, not a pay per month thing like Cowadooty.

I love Battlefield 3 but this is ridiculous, I already got the back to karkland, then they come out with close quaters and now this?

Found it.  Told you Dice said they'd never charge for map packs.  Oh look at them now...EA's got their pimp hand strong, ready and waiting if DICE slips up and says something like that again.

Did anyone actually pay for Back to Karkand? I mean seriously, I bought some special edition BF3 that came with Back to Karkand for free. It was the same price as the normal BF3, and I didn't have to reserve it or anything. I just picked it up off the store shelf in October. I don't know why more people didn't just do the same.

WTF.....

 

EA made a HUGE deal about NOT doing this at last years E3 if anyone remembers.

They went on about it like it was their main aim and were referring to COD's "Elite" package saying they were giving us "Elite" but for free and there is no reason to make people pay money for irrelevant things, they said if if a map pack comes out then it comes out early for every one.


This was one of their big selling points that they wouldnt shut up about, how they were giving us 'COD Elite' but for FREE and acting as if they were being generous.


NOW THEY ARE FUCKING DOING IT!!!!!




EA are idiots, they have gone completely back on what they said before they sold the game..... They sepecificly said at E3 that they would never do anything like this.....................

I wouldnt harp on about it but.... that like me saying "I promise with my life, you can hire me for this job and Im not going to kill 6 cats"  And then a year later killing 7 hoping my eployer forgot I said that.
