every pre order copy gets china rising. Its the same as with BF3 and Back 2 Karkand where all pre orders got B2K free.

Nobody has the full premium pack free, a competitor has made a slight error in their description, but they won't be honoring it. OcUk's page clarifies its only the one pack you get (China Rising) Not 5. The competitor who isn't name are saying 5 incorrectly.

Well, we're assuming it's incorrect. Another forum member asked them in quite specific language and they replied saying it was for all 5 DLC's (i.e. the full premium pack).

Do you have a source for the "nobody has the full premium pack free" other than it being too much for free to be likely?

Do you think the PS4 and XBone will be collectively pwned on Day One by PC?

Will be curious to see what happens, but if the consoles are running at 720p, I am gonna laugh my ass off.

No it doesn't:
Battlefield 4 - PC **Pre-order to receive a Battlefield 4 Premium Expansion Pack**

Battlefield 4™ is the genre-defining action blockbuster made from moments that blur the line between game and glory. Fueled by the next-generation power and fidelity of Frostbite™ 3, Battlefield 4 provides a visceral, dramatic experience unlike any other.

Only in Battlefield can you demolish the buildings shielding your enemy. Only in Battlefield will you lead an assault from the back of a gun boat. Battlefield grants you the freedom to do more and be more while playing to your strengths and carving your own path to victory.

In addition to its hallmark multiplayer, Battlefield 4 features an intense, dramatic character-driven campaign that starts with the evacuation of American VIPs from Shanghai and follows your squad's struggle to find its way home.

There is no comparison. Immerse yourself in the glorious chaos of all-out war, found only in Battlefield.

If been said a million times then SORRY but where are you guys buying your BF4 on disk only, I do not want the DLC version, And will this come with an expansion pack?

Buying games for the PC is becoming a pain should not be this hard

Not if you don't 'respawn' (if you are revived)

Yet that still counts as a kill for the player that shot you...

you know what could be a real game changer in bf3.

If you only scored a kill if the player wasn't revived.

It would totally cut out the spamfest on the likes of metro. Such battles would still occur in some way, but currently some players will play in such a way that all they are doing is farming useless kills that provide nothing for the team. They appear to have good stats and high scores but the reality is if they aren't taking a ticket off the opposition then their kill isn't worth much.

Just a simple change in how kills are counted would encourage a style of play based around clearing an area of players completely. This in turn would require more organised squad play, so you could hit a whole group of players at once and stop them reviving each other.

and then a player with a high kill count would truly have contributed to the game.

It does

It says Pack singular

Not packs plural.

Then thats for BF4 premium membership and not BF4 itself. There is no SKU that includes both BF4 and BF4 premium. Either way the product is incorrectly listed.

Here is their description:
Features:

Five digital expansion packs featuring new multiplayer maps and in-game content
Two-week early access to all expansion packs for an edge on the competition
Exclusive personalization options including camos, paints, emblems, dog tags and more
Priority position in server queues
New content every week
12 bonus Battlefield 4 Battlepacks
Click to expand...

Thats quite clearly the description of BF4 premium membership that they copied and pasted from http://www.battlefield.com/battlefield-4/premium .

But BF4 premium membership does not include the game and has to be bought separately. Plus the title of the product is:

Battlefield 4 - Free Premium Expansion DLC When You Pre Order Now PC

and the Xbox 360 version is called...

Battlefield 4 - Free Premium Expansion DLC When You Pre Order Now Xbox 360

Its an error. I'd love to see the email when they confirm they are selling BF4 premium membership and BF4 for £35

Could even track two things:

KDR (as now)
and EKDR (KDR minus revives the E being for 'effective').

Heck, ressing somoene saves your team a ticket - I'd like it that if you res someone and they survive at least say, 30 seconds (so it has to be a useful res, not just ressing someone in the middle of a mortar bombardment), it refunds you an effective death. (i.e. I killed 2 people and died twice, but ressed one team member. My EKDR is 2:1.)

that just makes things complicated.

my way is easy to understand, and arguably more correct than how it's currently counted

Premium is a pack (singlular) consisting of five DLCs plus other ltd content.

The point is moot anyway as there is just no way it's correct.

It's not a pack its membership for 12 months.

That then grants you access to (amongst other stuff) five premium expansion packs. Each one being a pack of 4 levels, weapons, new game modes etc..

You get the first of these, china rising, free with pre orders. It nowhere says you get the 12 months premium membership. Each DLC is a pack as it includes 4 levels, weapons, game modes etc...
 
You've lost me. You're saying Premium is only a 12 month subscription not a life-of-product upgrade?! :confused: Plus you and the description both call it a "Pack", so your contradicting yourself.

And also premium IS access to all DLC, that's the whole point of it.
