Battlefield Premium Gives You Map Packs, Stat Reset Options, Queue Priority and More
Mon Jun 04, 2012 at 10:30 AM ETTags: Battlefield, Battlefield 3, Battlefield Premium (all tags)
It's coming in at $50, but considering you'll be getting five expansion packs with it, it's a pretty slick setup.
Reuters has confirmed it , 'Battlefield 3' fan site Battlefieldo has dug up the details, and we're happy to say that Battlefield Premium is actually looking good.
Battlefield Premium will run you $50 and nets you a nice chunk of in-game content. For starters, you'll get all of the upcoming expansion packs as part of that price. PS3 owners will get access two weeks earlier thanks to a timed exclusivity deal.
You'll also get unique dog tags, camos, layers and more things to customize your experience. You'll be able to save up to five of your favorite battle reports and you can reset your stats as you see fit. There will also be exclusive events and a few other surprises in store.
The new service for 'Battlefield 3' is designed around the hardcore player – the guy who's going to pick up every map pack and probably play 'Battlefield 3' to the exclusion of other shooters. If you're the kind of person that's going to be picking up all the map packs anyway, this is a nice way to save some cash and get a few perks while you're at it.

Today's 'Battlefield 3' Patch for Xbox 360 Brings Big Updates and Server Rentals
Tue Apr 03, 2012 at 11:30 AM ETTags: Battlefield 3, Game Patches, Xbox 360 (all tags)
Xbox 360 owners join PC and PS3 players in the ability to rent a server with prices starting at $1.49 a day.
Today's patch to 'Battlefield 3' brings with it quite a few tweaks and improvements, but the most notable addition to the game is the addition of a rent-a-server service. By renting a dedicated server, you can create the exact game experience you want, regardless of the typical game rules.
Server rental starts at $1.49 a day, which is a decent enough price to try out the dedicated server thing and see if it works for you. Stepping up the rental time lowers the price per day, with 90 days costing you $59.99, or about $0.66 a day.
Of course, if dedicated servers aren't your thing, there are still pages upon pages of patch notes for you to check out, broken down into categories for guns, vehicles, scopes and general gameplay fixes.

Three 'Battlefield 3' Expansions Coming This Year - So are Custom Servers
Wed Mar 07, 2012 at 11:30 AM ETTags: Battlefield 3, Close Quarters, Armor King, Expansions, DLC, DICE (all tags)
The first and second expansions will be focused on infantry and vehicle combat respectively.
The folks over at EA are keeping 'Battlefield 3' going in a big way thanks to three expansions being launched this year.
The first expansion to 'Battlefield 3,' 'Close Quarters', will focus on short-range infantry fights. In addition to the 10 added weapons, each map will have more destructible terrain. The second, 'Armor King,' is the opposite - big open spaces with plenty of room for vehicular combat.
In addition to these new expansions, EA will give console players the ability to rent and set up custom servers. This will allow people to experience the game in just the way they want.

EA Opens a Gothenburg Studio to Focus on the Frostbite 2 Engine
Tue Mar 06, 2012 at 01:30 PM ETTags: EA, EA Gothenburg, Battlefield 3 (all tags)
The Frostbite 2 engine is currently used in 'Battlefield 3,' and 'Need for Speed: The Run.'
'Battlefield 3' was more than just a killer multiplayer experience. It was also the first game to use the new Frostbite 2 engine.
EA must have been pretty pleased with Frostbite 2, because they just opened a new studio in Gothernburg, Sweden focusing exclusively on making games using the engine. The studio is currently hiring a boatload of new people for positions within the studio.
The studio hasn't revealed any information on what projects it will be tackling, but we expect to hear more once EA Gothenburg gets a full staff.
