What shops are these and whos crying about? Not I. Im just ****ed that after paying a premium Im now left with nothing exclusive for doing so.

You paid for premium and you get all CQ and all the future dlc, I don't get what you are so angry about. Limited editions of games don't get exclusive stuff down the line long after release... usually just little perks on release, like getting karkand for free...

This latest update (CQ) has brought so many bugs into this game is insane. Hell as of right now Battle-log says i have a wrong username or password while logging in.

As someone that works in tech support, 99.95% of the time getting a wrong username/pass error means you are in fact entering the wrong username or password :rofl:

Yep, seems as though the whole BF3/Battlelog network is down. Their sysadmins are 2/2 in the past week.

No, and you're not the only one in tech support. Though I like how you were able to automatically assume the user is an idiot and it was their fault and not something on the company's end. You must be a shining star at your job. :rofl:

Nah, I actually prefer it to be something on my end, cause that means I can fix it, I prefer that to trying to convince someone that they are in fact typing the wrong password for the 10th time in a row :laugh:

So what little perks do us LE adopters have now? Nothing thats what.

Also i will buy premium at some point, but I feel that after paying more on launch day than others, there should be atleast a little nod, a dog tag, a camo scheme, something as a little perk. That hasnt been bundled up and sold as addons already.

Paying more than others? You paid the same as everyone else. And the perk you got for the LE is free Back to Karkand dlc.

Nothing exclusive? What about the "Soldier Upgrade" (Camouflage) us premium users will be getting next month? And what about the "Bonus Content Drop" the month after? All of that isn't exclusive enough for you? Oh, and what about all the Double XP events we'll be getting each month? Still not exclusive enough?

People seem to be forgetting that Battlefield Premium is more than just buying the DLC in bulk. There's a whole lot more to Battlefield Premium than just the DLC.

He's talking about the Limited Edition game not the Premium addon. He was saying that he has nothing to show for buying the LE as Karkand is now available for everyone.

^Looked to me like he was talking about Premium. What else did he expect? That Karkand would only be available for the people who bought LE? That's very weird to me :/ The perk of getting LE was getting Back to Karkand along with it. I bought LE as well and I don't see any downside of that having bought Premium as well.

Yeah exactly, LE was only like ?5ish more than standard, B2K on its own its ?10-12ish you got the LE you saved money in the long run...and if you got the LE physical warfare pack you got a few extra guns straight off as well...

Premium gets you DLC cheaper, 2 weeks early and extra content...if you can get it at a good price (I paid ?29.99 for 4200MSP, so ?28.56 for premium at 4000MSP) then its well worth it IMO.

Not entirely true. The last camo you unlock lowers your heat profile. Not that anyone uses the IRNV anymore.

We get it 1 week earlier, right? At least on PC we do as far as I know. I've payed ?49,99 for it and I found it well worth the money. Though only because I know I'll be playing it for all the months to come till the next BF drops.

As I understand it from the official release date working backwards.

Date: PC and 360 non premium members

Date -1 week: PS3 non premium members

Date -2 weeks PC and 360 premium members

Date -3 weeks PS3 premium members

right enough mate, forgot about that, but as you say once the INVR was nerfed it was pointless. I dont miss it tbvh

I believed that Playstation Premium members got it 1 week before PC Premium members and everyone else next week. Thanks clarifying :)

?17.96 FTW :D

No matter what anyone says, Premium is good value for money, at least for those who are going to be buying all of the DLC's anyway. If not, then you still get added perks but it's not so much that you have a disadvantage over other players, from what I've seen anyway. Apart from the prioritised queue thing which is a bit silly I think.

    • KillerPDF 1.5.1 by Razvan Serea KillerPDF is a lightweight, portable PDF editor for Windows built for users who want full control without subscriptions, installers, or telemetry. It runs as a single executable, making it ideal for USB use and field work. You can view PDFs with smooth PDFium rendering, navigate quickly with thumbnails, zoom, and shortcuts, and reorganize pages using drag-and-drop. It supports merging multiple PDFs, splitting documents, and extracting selected pages. KillerPDF also allows inline text editing with font matching to preserve the original layout, plus annotations like text boxes, freehand drawing, highlights, and reusable signatures. You can search full text, copy content easily, and print documents with flattened annotations. Designed as a free and open alternative to bloated PDF tools, it works fully offline on Windows 10/11 x64. No runtimes install. Everything needed is inside the EXE (targets .NET Framework 4.8, which ships with every supported Windows release). KillerPDF key features: High-quality PDF rendering via PDFium Edit PDF text inline (double-click to modify text) Page thumbnails and fast navigation with zoom and shortcuts Merge multiple PDFs into one Split PDFs and extract selected pages Drag-and-drop page reordering Font matching to preserve original document appearance Text boxes for notes Freehand drawing tools Highlight overlays with adjustable color, size, opacity Undo actions and clear per-page annotations Create, draw, and save reusable signatures Click-to-place signatures anywhere Full-text search with highlighted results Drag-select or Ctrl+A to copy text Print with annotations flattened Portable single-file app (~10 MB) No installer, no admin rights required No account, no telemetry KillerPDF 1.5.1 changelog: Performance Save Flattened PDF now uses multiple CPU cores. Page rasterization is parallelized (PNG encoding runs across cores; the PDFium render step stays serialized since the library isn't thread-safe), so large documents flatten significantly faster while the UI stays responsive (#68). Fixed PDFs that failed to open with "Unexpected EOF" now open (#72). The failure was PdfSharpCore's Flate inflater (SharpZipLib) rejecting the FlateDecode cross-reference stream on multi-revision PDFs - files that open fine in browsers, Acrobat, and Foxit. KillerPDF now detects this and re-opens the file losslessly through PDFium, preserving selectable text. Thanks to @javajon for the report and a detailed reproduction. Grid view renders every page. It was capped at the first 26 pages, so longer documents stopped loading partway through. Tiles also stream in progressively now instead of blocking until the whole document is rendered. Grid Ctrl+Scroll no longer reloads every page when the zoom is already at its limit and nothing would change. Removed a stray horizontal scrollbar (a thin green line) that could appear across the bottom of grid view. Files on UNC / network shares (including the WSL \\wsl$ filesystem) are copied locally before opening, avoiding partial-read failures on network filesystems. Changed Minimum zoom lowered from 10% to 5%, so grid view can pack more columns (helpful for wide/landscape pages) and single-page view can zoom out further.
