Another EA's attempt to get more customers... Wondering how many more there will be, it's a second one already.

You're ignorant. It's not DLC, the guns are unlocks that you get early access to.

Well so far we have 4:

Back to Karkand - DLC with 4 maps, vehicles and weapons from BF2
Physical Warfare Pack (this one they said everyone will unlock after a month or so post launch)
Specact - they say it will be available later (possible will be bought like the Specact for Bad Company 2)
And Exclusive dog tags(which I have no idea if will be able to buy later) for pre-orders on Amazon and some UK store that I forgot the name (no idea if it will be available anywhere else)

Specant isn't really a pre-order exclusive, you will have to buy it, or am I wrong?
As for those maps - they are giving the whole pack, why would they give only 4 maps? I mean, it's illogical, lol. Unless they are going bigger and changing the rules, but that's a desperate action then. Especially after their game was rated extremely good at Gamescom...

Some stores have it on pre-order, but it will be available later, prolly will be bought for who don't pre-order on the stores that have it as pre-order bonus.
The 4 maps from Karkand pack are 4 remade maps are bf2 maps that was remade for the new engine, 1 of the maps was shorter in bf2 but they made it at the size it should be at that time. Been a while I read about but ya, thats it.

Here some links with more info on what I have said:

Link talking about the pre-order bonus for North America
(Spectact come on Best Buy pre-order. But will be available later, possible bought like on Bad Company 2)

I will, it's too good of a game to miss out on, even if it means I have to use shitty Origin.

What goes wrong with EA, now if we want to play BF3. We need to start Origin and then login in Battle Log via browser. Also as I heard there will be not a server browser in game and this is OMG FAIL.

Sounds extremely unpractical... But maybe they will implement it? I meant it's a very useful feature, otherwise you can't choose ping, map, player count, probably other things.
