So incase you have not heard EA is planning on making it where you have to buy the enhanced game for better guns and stuff. I was sent this and thought it was funny.

yeah I read about it last week and promptly decided to take my reservation and move it to Mario kart for the wii, I STRONGLEY urge allm of you to join the BOYCOTT and not buy this game or any other game from EA for a while, there is a boycott started up and I joined it after reading this BS. At least if you have to buy an EA game buy it used.

I'm in the beta and only played for 5 minutes. It was a complete lag fest.

EA announced they are no longer going to make us pay for those weapons...we just have to buy the special addition or wait until we are level 25.

yeah it seems as though the anger over this made a difference but don't think EA won't try it again on a different game. Next thing you know You will have to buy a special edition Madden just to get the starting rosters LOL

Also the beta sucked the servers were so laggy the game just plain sucked they need a lot of work in my opinion if they even want to try to compete with Rainbow or COD4

Yeah I am going to wait on this one, frontlines is everything the first battle field on the 360 should have been. and that satisfys my war needs for now.

I used to be a huge Battlefield fan (1942, the modern combat mod, vietnam, battlefield 2, 2142) but it just got old. Personally, I liked battlefield vietnam the best (although I missed driving ships in the pacific of 1942).

Actually EA never said they where going to sell the weapons. They wanted to sell those in the beta weapons and it got a lot of gamers hot. I never liked having to pay for content already in the game and I am not going to pay for any in a beta. Now they are going to release weapon packs just like they did with Need for Speed and Tiger Woods. Or you can unlock the weapons by playing the game and earning them. I don't agree with it or like the idea but when gamers pay for packs that unlock stuff right away can you really blame a company?

didn't they also say that the purchased weapons pack would not give anyone an advantage over the other? that is was merely cosmetic?

Rough,
Yes they said that I guess they are thinking if you can unlock the weapons they sell it's not an advantage. Like I said I don't agree with it but I am not making the choice to do it. I will find out all the details I know there is still a few things they are trying to decide. I know if someone can buy the weapons at once and you need to unlock them by ranking up there would seem to be an advantage. I don't want to say this is what they are going to do and have it change. All I know is they said they would offer weapon packs on the marketplace but not offer things not in the game. You know this can change though.
