LAAAAAAAAAME. I'm sick of all the weapons out there now, and Recon needs some better gadgets to play a more up-front role. How about a tracer-dart like device? Or radio-jammer to help take the heat off from missile lock ons? SOMETHING!

 

This might sound a bit nooby, but can't premium members sue them for false advertising? They paid for something different than what they are going to get

 

like stated on source page. They should then refund some premium money for the lack of content premium users paid for.

Possibly. Considering they've already been sued for false advertising with BF3 last year, it's likely to happen again.

Plus, there was all the false advertising for Armored Kill, Close Quarters, and even the pricing of premium.

You might have quite a case.

They could because you can sue people for anything but i doubt they would win over something like that.

If you can prove that EA guaranteed that new weapons would be released in these two expansions for those who bought Premium, you might have a slight chance, but not really.

If you bought Premium, you bought it to get all of the next expansion packs. You didn't specifically pay for the new weapons. You paid for new content and that's what you're getting.

 

Don't worry everyone, It's EA the guns will be back in a couple of months with the same content they planned for an extra £9.99

Yes but looking at the before and after picture of their advertisement it was specifically saying about new weapons.

Btw I am not Premium I am asking out of curiosity.

More like in BF4.

 

I'm sure they have it covered in there contract some where along the lines of, "content subject to change without notice"

Yes that;s exactly what I'm thinking too, otherwise I believe they could get sued for false advertisement

 

I saw aftermath on battlelog a few days ago and never heard anything of it before yesterday. Now I see this. I wondered what it was.

Yea, I think if weapons had more differences between them it'd make weapons more fun. Like heavy damage assault weapons but very high recoil, low damage high ROF weapons, etc. It just seems like every weapon has the same amount of damage, around the same recoil, same attachments....eh. Boring I know.

They can't they agreed to a non-class action lawsuit when they purchased the game and started using Origin. This is what happens when people rollover and agree to things like this. You have no rights and companies can do whatever they please. They don't care about you, all they care about is squeezing every last drop of cash you have in your wallet and bank account.

 

So are there any new vehicles and if not, how are these any different from CoD's map packs now?

 

Sorry, but if you pre-order anything from EA (Premium is effectively pre-ordering the DLC) then you deserve this, it's effectively saying you trust them and only a fool would trust any company, let alone EA.

I guess its not but at least its free.
Still sucks about the weapons! I want some new ones ... I'm getting tired of the same weapons. I need some new sniper rifles. Really miss the M95 from BFBC2

 

if i ever got upset this would upset me, but i dont get upset so im am slightly disturbed. i knew EA were bastard but DICE too

 

I'll use my sports season pass analogy..

You buy a season pass for all matches, but in the Ad it says you get free hotdogs and beer to sweeten the deal and make people buy the season pass.

However, the season pass states that you're going to ALL matches, and doesn't mention in its legal writing anything about hotdogs or beer. You go to the games, and find out you don't get those extras for free. Practically it is false advertisement. But technically, by law, its not and can't be ground for suing.

Welcome to advertising and the hype machine.

There's also the "Anything written here is subject to change without any prior notice" line that no one ever pays attention to.

I like the way you think.

 

Is the picture that's all there is to go on, or has DICE/EA actually come out and said there won't be weapons?

 

EA Rep:
We removed the weapons because not everyone likes weapons. The average gamer doesn't even use weapons in BF3 and this way we can offer gamer's a value packed choice. You can buy the expansions and there is plenty of content there with new maps and some vehicles you can drive, but some gamer's will want more, and this is why we are proud to announce additional DLC in the form of weapons.

 

No big deal...they are already working on BF3 Premium Content 2 which has stuff ripped of from BF3 Premium Content. It will be cost you only $49.99

 

blah blah blah.... for you suckers that paid for Premium

blah

So when is BF4 coming out so we can put this all behind us
