Pre Order Bonus Items Being Announced for Battlefield 3

[CptainCrunch]

Earlier I posted up the bonus for pre-order on Origin.

To make it a bit more clear, all pre-orders will have the following:

-Back to Karkand Expansion
4 classic maps of Battlefield 2 Redesigned for Frostbite 2.0.
Weapons and vehicles of Battlefield 2
Unique Rewards, achievements, and trophies

-The Physical Warfare Pack
DAO-12 Shotgun
Flash Suppressor
Type 88 LMG
Flachette Ammo

Gamestop is offering a Prima Strategy Guide for the Back to Karkand Expnsion Pack.

Best Buy is offering a free SPECTAT Kit for Battlefield 3, which will include eight multiplayer weapons and uniforms. Also note that this pre-order bonus seems to only be available for PS3 and Xbox 360 on the Best Buy website, at this time.

Amazon is including in its pre-order an exclusive dog tag pack that will include unique dog tags for multiplayer use.

So there are the current choices for those that may already have a beta code or would rather purchase elsewhere.

For the PC gamer, the Origin pre-order seems like the best (unless you really love people knifing you so much to show off your Amazon dogtags).

Does the Best Buy offer confirm 2 factions? 4 kits per faction, and equal number of side-locked guns...

Without breaking the NDA, your dogtags are actually displayed whenever you kill someone. Somewhat like CoD's callsigns/playercards.

Thanks, I was not one of the lucky ones to get into the Alpha Maybe it wouldn't be that bad of an idea then, considering that it is a permanent, exclusive "benefit" rather than some extra early unlocks and earlier beta access.

I checked them before posting this and so far, nothing extra.

Also it is worth mentioning that the Physical Warfare Pack seems to be a limited time exclusive.

I would also like to not break NDA and confirm that Crunch is a camping son of a gun who waits for you to get your tags.

I would also like to not break NDA and confirm that I do NOT camp and Sethonan runs blindly into dark tunnels into my awaiting knife.

Fixed, though if I am right, it may be breaking the NDA then...

Well i wont break the NDA by saying that the game feels great, has a mirror's edge easter egg and should also be perfectly optimized by dice to my old system or else i'm going to kill someone, but yeah, it's good.

LOL, +rep because that was funny and I do think camping is a valid tactic, however, my knife kills on Sethonan was purely run-n-gun hunting style.

I miss the alpha

Sucks not to have been invited to the Alpha, but I did enjoy it

SPECACT kits were for the longest time only available on consoles, remember with the Dr. Pepper promo getting very excited and then learning they didn't even bother with the PC.

What is strange about that is this time around the kit is for Best Buy and only the console versions of BF3 mentions the SPECACT bonus.
