All right everyone is ripping on premium but lets just make this clear. YOU BOUGHT IT. If your not happy, too bad. No one forced us to buy premium and on top of that, at least we get the map packs for less then buying them separably. These may be stupid things dice is giving us, but its still cool. I'm not good at drawing... (at all) but I personally love concept art and am thrilled about the art book. Stop complaining. Since you already bought premium and it can't be refunded... ITS FREE.

Ask DICE why you were reset. Even if they give you a stupid answer reply back and tell me what it is and I'll try to explain their reasoning for it. If they don't tell you, tell them that you have a legal right to know and will contact a lawyer if they do not tell you. (Idle threat as i don't think you have a legal right)

Again at least it's something. I would have liked to see some camos and maybe even some new guns, but it's EA's decision I believe. DICE just develops the game but EA markets it. EA = Money whores. We have known this for a long time.

Did you say it's FREE?!? We invested $50 in this, how the hell is it free? If I pre-order a game for $60, is the game itself free too, because I pay nothing when I pick it up? No. And no, there is nothing cool about some preview video or unreleased development artwork.

If you expect everyone to bend over like you do for EA/Dice, fail. We aren't happy customers.

I was hoping for something better. But I actually wouldn't mind the concept art. It's amazing to see things from concept to finished product, but this is pretty lame especially for bonus content. Hopefully this is the lamest and will be lamest thing DICE will release in bonus content :y:

Let me lay it out. If we didn't have premium, we would have to pay more money for all the map packs and we wouldn't have all the little goodies premium members get. Premium is like a prepayment on the map packs, with a discount. The things we get from Premium (excluding the map packs) are free. I don't see why everyone is so angry at EA for this. EA gave us a discount on the map packs and then decided to give us free stuff. So to thank them, people start bitching at em? Doesn't anyone else see this? Let me sum all that up. They gave us a discount on the map packs AND are giving us free stuff.
