Battlefield Hardline Preorder Nonsense

[CognitoCon]

Perhaps some of you were considering buying Hardline sometime after it came out, like I was. Well, welcome to the world of EA. http://www.reddit.com/r/BF_Hardline/com ... cked_with/

What are the deluxe weapons anyway?

An extra shotty/pistol? OOOOOOOO like I care.

The preorder weapons are all assault rifles and if I remember correctly, they're the L85A2, the ACW-R and I'm not sure about the third. And, you can't unlock them if you don't preorder apparently.

Who needs extra weapons when you have the M16A3 and a Littlebird?

[CognitoCon]

But I like using different guns

Sometimes life just doesn't work out.

Of course it doesn't matter to me. I'm a pilot, we're simple people

[Necromancer]

But I like using different guns

this pack is made especially for you.

[CognitoCon]

Ugh I'm gonna end up preordering again, god dammit.

What do you mean about the gold battlepack?

[Necromancer]

I know you pre-ordered BF4 to get that "3x Gold Battlepack" bonus.

[CognitoCon]

Ohhhh right. But I don't like the idea of not being able to even buy this gun dlc later. It would just be permanently inaccessible.

Omg you gais, this is like the opposite of day 1 DLC. Instead of paying extra for new content, we pay early for all the original content. LOLOLOL, congrats too EA and their new money baby. As much as I WAS excited for hardline after the beta, I'm not gonna buy a game that locks content out like this.

They always try to pull that crap. Remember BF3 Physical Warfare Pack with its "exclusive" weapons? After it exploded in their face turned out the benefit was that those weapons would be available from day 1, but anyone could unlock them.

Oh, and please don't pre-order.
