LordBunnyHunter Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 It's here if you haven't noticed it yet. But again, no old BFBC2 maps! Just some wallpapers and other worthless stuff. Here's what it says on Battlelog.com: With this bonus content drop, Battlelog visitors will be able to enjoy 8 new wallpapers from Battlefield 3: Aftermath, new soldier profile images for use on Battlelog, and new Premium exclusive Platoon emblems. You can download the wallpapers from the bonus content section on Battlelog, and access the additional images in their normal sections on Battlelog. You can also find a small additional bonus item for download in the Battlefield 3 in-game store. What do you think? I mean honestly, I expected a bit more than artbooklets and wallpapers. Nobody cares about that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBDrew84 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 What do you think? I mean honestly, I expected a bit more than artbooklets and wallpapers. Nobody cares about that! I am not going to complain about free stuff. I did not buy Premium for the frills, I bought it for the discount and early access to DLC's. I think the added avatars, wallpapers, and dashboard theme that we got for free is pretty cool. Also no where did they ever say that the bonus content would be more maps. I have said this in other Premium posts, If you are disappointed with BF3 Premium then make smarter investment decisions it offers everything it said it would nothing more nothing less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were gonna do remakes of BFBC2 maps I'm pretty sure it would've been a full fledged DLC. Bonus content is bonus, and given that I'd say this month's bonus content is pretty cool.

Skillet Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 The idea that they would release entire maps exclusively to Premium members, and that those maps wouldn't have been announced along with the other map packs that we all bought Premium for, AND would be released as random "bonus" content... is just bat shit stupid.

I have said this in other Premium posts, If you are disappointed with BF3 Premium then make smarter investment decisions it offers everything it said it would nothing more nothing less Wait, what? What avatars and dashboard themes? I had no idea we even got those things, how do I download them? Anyway, they said last time that none of the bonus content would be in-game, it would be things outside the game, like art books and such. No maps and honestly, even before that I don't think anyone thought that it would be maps, I figured more gadgets like the M320 LVG. Also, why would we want BC2 maps anyway? Even the best ones wouldn't really fit in BF3 I don't think, although I wouldn't mind seeing Port Valdez and Panama Canal again... Agreed . If they were gonna do remakes of BFBC2 maps I'm pretty sure it would've been a full fledged DLC. Bonus content is bonus, and given that I'd say this month's bonus content is pretty cool. I agree, I actually kinda like the art, I can use it as wallpapers and such and it's pretty cool to see what the emotional direction and art design of the game was before it became an actual game. Fallout 3 and New Vegas have some awesome art like that, as well. Man, if games could be just like their concept art... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOLFkraut Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 What is the small additional bonus item available for download in the Battlefield 3 in-game store? What a strange, yet specific description. Sounds like something you would see when activating an item in Fallout... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluWolve Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 What a strange, yet specific description. Sounds like something you would see when activating an item in Fallout... Haha I should have put quotation marks in. In the description quoted in the first post at the end it says something about an item to download and i was just curious as to what it was as i can't use my Xbox right now.

Skillet Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 The "small additional bonus item available in the BF3 store" is a free Aftermath theme, as far as I could tell. That was the only free item on there, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny34 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 There will never be any bfbc2 maps who even came up with this crazy theory??? All the bonus content drops will be themes/wallpapers. Just like the one that comes out in Feb will be end game themes etc.. No bfbc2 maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skillet Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 As in dashboard theme? Cool, have been meaning to change out my Halo Reach one for forever but am too lazy. It's honestly not that great, imo. I made the mistake of purchasing the original BF3 theme only to find that it was just a giant BF3 logo. This one is no different. I'm currently using the Assassin's Creed 3 theme from uPlay. Other game companies should use it as an example of the correct way to make a theme.
