DICE has cut it quite fine with August starting to come to a close. Much hype spread around gaming websites during August regarding this bonus content. Did all the hype seal the fate of this Premium Bonus Content Drop? What are your thoughts on it? Is this what you had in mind for bonus content?

I pre-ordered the game, which means I had Karkand already. They wanted my money up front, and I agreed to pay $50 in advance for $60 worth of DLC content (most of which is still down the road) mainly because of the additional weapons, assignments and perks like that. You know, a package deal, where nothing is "free", it's simply an incentive for them to get my money faster, and that's fine with me.

It's not a matter of wether we are happy overall with the Premium, because most of us are overall happy with it. It is simply that many of us expected a "Bonus CONTENT Drop" to be more than some artwork that most of us will never even glance at because we would rather be playing the game (even without the stuff we expected added). If you read the OP, he write in the very first paragraph "DICE has finally revealed what the bonus content will contain and when it will be released. Don't get too excited." He wrote that because there is nothing exciting in the content drop, and we are expressing our disappointment. Is that clear enough why customers who paid them money in advance are complaining about being disappointed?

Oh not this shit again dice, this is ot cod >-<

You said it yourself, we paid for the map packs. I understand that people are disappointed but I don't agree with it. It may be a package deal but I could care less about the rest of the stuff in premium. The way I look at it is I paid for the DLCs, and the stuff I get from premium is their way of thanking us for paying early.

Nope, but it's still better than CoD.

No, I didn't.

I don't know a nice way to put this.. Yes you did. Lol. That was blunt but I'm just making my point.

I DID. They said to wait a few days to receive an E-Mail to why you got reset. So after 1 whole week, NOTHING. Man, Dice is resetting everyone lately. First they reset the #1 Assault guy and he was legit too. I mean really, if you had 500+ Hours played in your friggin Assault kit, I'm damn sure you'll be able to get a 100 stars by then.

I ain't trippin though. Don't really care... Dice can take away my hard earned unlocks but they can't take away my skills.

So become a thorn in their side. Keep buggin them till they tell you. Sometimes in life, you gotta be THAT kinda guy.

I plainly stated "mainly because..." which either didn't register or was conveniently ignored.

That leaves two options. Are you
1) one of those people that quotes out of context, when in fact I stated the opposite.
OR
2) someone who only reads half of what was written.

Well, which is it?

I read your entire post and did not quote out of context. What you listed after "mainly because" was all stuff promised in DLCs. You may have paid for the DLCs because of what they entail (weapons, assignments, etc.) but bottom line is you paid for the DLCs.
