Yeah, unless I really get into it big time (which I cannot see myself doing) I'm not paying £40 for some expansion packs. EA can take a running jump on that one. Looks like very poor value for money considering the amount of content.

Im not paying 0.4 p for anything regarding Battlefield as I've said I'm getting extremely bored with Cod and Battlefield and most things FPS that EA and Activision are throwing my way time and time again.

Been looking at the Black Ops 2 videos and watching the developers telling us how Black Ops 2 is going to redefine FPS and i just don't see it.

It looks ok in parts but redefine is a very big word and this from what i have seen is no difference to MW3 which most people call MW 2.5 .

We need a new direction and someone needs to put some new life in FPS........Period

I would just like to see more support for the modding community. BF1942 had some great mods for it and gave birth to Desert Combat. More inspiration for new ideas can come from supporting the gaming community. More lateral thinking is sometimes needed.

Grr I had to buy it as the mates I play with have it and one of them runs the server we use

It happened that I had £11 in my wallet, found a £20 psn card in the cupboard and used the remaining £3 credit on my trade in card to buy a £10 psn card, so it seems like I only paid £7 for the premium pack. Roll on the armoured maps

Comical price really.

I generally disagree with buying DLC on principle. On the PC it appears to be possible to buy it from different countries by a bit of trickery with your origin profile and the use of proxy servers. Mate got it for 1500 indian rupees which is £17 and it seemed to go through fine. Heard stories of people getting their purchases reversed and refunded though so we'll see what happens on his.

If it sticks I'd possibly buy it this route. Waiting to see if CQ is decent on PC or just a poor joke. If I hear good things i'll essentially give EA the option of having £17 off me or £0. Up to them if they want to let it authorise.

I wonder if that works for PS3's?? I have an american account

What im waiting to see as well, for 17 pounds its a bargin.

Aliens, Aliens, Aliens!

Your dog meat man ?

Prey please not

I've got it. As Gzero said it is much better value for those people who didn't have B2K. For those who had it like me it all seems a bit steep but by the time all of the expansions are out it will be like the equivalent of Special Forces for BF2 I guess.

I haven't actually played BF3 for a couple of months so I got it to see whether CQ could re-kindle my interest.

As much as the maps seem spawn/die size the player count has reduced accordingly.
