    Give your soldier some style with the Kit Upgrade DLC

    This just in from the BF Blog:

    On Wednesday 21st April Xbox 360 players can change how their soldiers look on the Battlefield with the Kit Upgrade DLC.









    Want some details on what the DLC includes? Of course you do:



    There are 4 kits, one for each class, specific unique uniforms and camouflaged weapons gives you a visual edge. I mean what good is a camouflaged soldier if the gun sticks out like a sore thumb?


    Recruited strictly from other high-level Special Operations units such as Delta Force and Spetsnaz, the Special Activities groups – SPECACT - are the elite of the elite, used mainly for covert operations and other high-risk missions in areas where conventional troops cannot be used.

    With the 4 kit specific unique uniforms and the camouflaged SPECACT personal M16A2, UMP-45, MG3 and M95 SNIPER you have a visual edge on the Battlefield, showing that you’re a force to be reckoned with. The pack also includes 12 new awards and 4 Achievements.



    In North America the kit upgrades are only available on Xbox 360 using the Dr Pepper codes printed on special promotional cans.



    In Europe and the UK you can get hold of the kit upgrades for:



    Xbox Live Marketplace
    160 MS points per kit upgrade
    440 MS points for bundle pack (all kits)



    The kit upgrades will also be coming to PS3 and PC a little later on, we’ll post the exact release dates here as soon as we can.

      I imagine that when we do, you see even more lag issues as the server and your system have to keep up with all the "custom" uniforms. This should be interesting.

        It will, possibly similar cost to the consoles;

        Yep, where you currently pick your kit load out you will see something like this

        Assault
        Assault +

        Where the ones with + after it are the new look kits.
        Only purchasable through the EA Store so I assume they will email a redeem code.

        And this for good measure

          It bothers me that the medic in that pictures still has the red beret!

          I like the idea of getting different skins. I look forward to having the options

              They did originally show off the medic with the green beret, I think I'll pass on this DLC when it's released for the PC.

              They've said the maps will be free and according to Demize99 there are no plans on adding more weapons to the game. I can't think of anything else they could charge for as paid DLC content, custom skins for vehicles?

              They could add Jetpacks to the game, I'd probably pay money for that feature. :P

                If the Dr Pepper codes work on the PC, I'll have it. I won't get it otherwise.
                I've gathered up some Dr Pepper caps just in case. I'll let my wife use them for her Sims 3 if they decide to shaft the PC on this one.

                  i don't think it will be for PC. just like Dr. Pepper DLC was for consoles only.

                      I want more maps! I would even pay for them if it was a large map pack. Maybe they will do expansion packs like in earlier titles.

                          Cause you can get **** for BFH and that's definitely PC exclusive.

                            I will only pay for skins if I get a Katana skin for my knife... period.

                              I don't see anything different in that picture.
