Well they have to capitalise on that a bit. Though this has much more destructable terrain, hopefully they can bring everything they have learned from previous battlefields, mainly that they give us everything we want at release, like cod does with the various "go to's" and "toggles".

Shaping up to have a nice pacing to the game, im getting a little tired of the typical gameplay from the recent CoD offerings:

"GO THERE QUICKLY OH GOD THE BUILDINGS BLOWN UP RUN SHOOT THEM THERE PICK UP A GRENADE LAUNCHER FIRE IT AT THIS TANK AND GO OV..oh your dead never mind. ProTip: A grenade indicator means a grenade was in proximity to you."

Claim battlefield superiority this Autumn! The Battlefield 3 Limited Edition: Physical Warfare Pack is now available for pre-order exclusively at GAME and Gamestation in the UK.

Players can storm the battlefield armed with powerful weapons and items only available in the Physical Warfare Pack including the Type 88 light machine gun with bipod for superior firepower and total zone control, the SKS sniper rifle flash suppressor that provides increased stealth abilities for Recon soldiers, and the lethal armour-piercing flechette ammo for the DAO-12 semi-automatic shotgun that is sure to tear through anything in its path. Also included is day one access to the highly versatile DAO-12 semi-automatic shotgun itself.

In addition to the launch day exclusive weapons, the Physical Warfare Pack also includes the Battlefield 3 Back to Karkand digital expansion pack. Players can wage all-out war on four of the most celebrated maps from Battlefield 2, including Strike at Karkand, Gulf of Oman and the Sharqi Peninsula, all stunningly re-created using the power of Frostbite™ 2. DICE’s state of the art game engine serves as the power center for Battlefield 3 to deliver superior performance in character animation, visual rendering, audio and physical destruction unlike anything ever seen before.

TYPE 88 LIGHT MACHINE GUN
Exclusive weapon
The Type 88 is a gas-powered, air-cooled light machine gun that comes equipped with a bipod for maximum stability. Setting the bipod up on a suitable surface gives a major boost in accuracy and recoil reduction. With the Type 88, you will completely deny the enemy entry to your area of control.

DAO-12 shotgun
Day 1 unlock
It isn’t hard to see why the powerful DAO-12 was a big fan favorite in Battlefield 2. Being a highly versatile semi-automatic 12-gauge shotgun, the DAO-12 can carry 4 types of ammo in a high capacity 12-round magazine. For close encounters, you wouldn’t want to carry any other weapon, and with the Physical Warfare Pack, you unlock it from day 1 in Battlefield 3.

Well that answers that.

Flechette ammo for the DAO-12 shotgun
Exclusive ammo
This exclusive armor-piercing ammo makes your DAO-12 shotgun pack an added punch. Each flechette cartridge holds a number of 1-inch tungsten arrows that willtear through any material, be it metal, wood, or enemies. If you turn a corner and meet three soldiers from the opposing force, these are the rounds you want loaded in your DAO-12.

FLASH SUPPRESSOR FOR SKS SNIPER RIFLE
Exclusive weapon mod
This exclusive item is the only sniper rifle flash suppressor in the game. Attaching it to the fast-firing and high capacity SKS rifle turns you into a highly agile and versatile Recon member. For the true team-play Recon who wants to contribute at the front while staying stealthy, this weapon mod is an essential upgrade.

All of this amazing content is available at no extra charge to gamers who pre-order the Battlefield 3 Limited Edition: Physical Warfare Pack exclusively at www.game.co.uk and www.gamestation.co.uk.

Hmmm, this seems brutally unfair.I wonder if are these items unlockable on other versions of the game, or ONLY for buyers of this, pack. Makes me want to not buy the game at all, if its turned into a manwiththemostmoney wins game. That said, as i my current pre order is for £29.91 from amazon, considering how much i am sure i will play this game, im not against buying this pack.

(To clarify, it looks like this is a code sent with the standard limited edition to buyers from those 2 stores.)

Sounds like everyone can get these, but with EA you can never be sure until its too late.

No doubt its like BFBC2 where you couldnt be sure the limited edition unlocks were avaliable to everyone until like a month into the game. Though in that case the limited edition wasnt £5 more than the regular.

This is a practice that is very prevalent in the US and for highly desirable games such as this, it doesn not surprise me that certain retailers are going down this route to try and secure more sales of that game for themselves...

What i said above aside, its very confusing how on game.co.uk it differentiates day one access from "exclusive wargear".

Game are trying to sell it to you as you can't get them anywhere else, which true to some extent for day one gaming is not true for anyone who plays the game... You'll be able to unlock them all through the game....

In BF2142 if you pre-ordered the game from GAME then you got a special skin that replaced the default skin but made no difference to it's mechanics during game play.

It'll be similar to that, and the BFBC2 buying the pre order pack giving you the extra weapons early on in the game.

also, I don't care, because I'm not buying the games at any of these outlets, regardless of what they are offering :)

Am I totally missing what others are seeing in this? I got confused part way through and thought I was watching a CoD trailer...
