Is battlefield 4 premium edition worth buying?

enRodjavel

Heya All! I'we gotten a great deal on the premium edition (game and premium) only gona cost me 20$ but do I need the premium part to play online ? Or is it just extra things? Haven't read anything about what's included cause I'm at work xD.

So pls help a dude that just got in to fps gaming again after some years of none existing gaming at all.

You don't need it to play online. It basically gives you all of the DLC (and any new ones) as well as exclusive assignments, dog tags and weapons. 

 

If you can get it for $20, I'd go for it.

I think it's just a bunch of dumb DLC.

Necessary? no

 

worth it? yes there are some great new maps you will get bored of the stock ones, and the expansions are really good, also some servers that have DLC content in them will not allow you to connect although there are plenty of vanilla only servers

Wouldnt call it dumb, there are like 20 new maps!!!

It has some of the best maps, and recently they announced that they aren't giving up on dlc for bf4 and they're releasing 1 more final DLC, with all the best maps from previous games and the community can choose which ones they would like bringing back. (in other words the best value premium for a long time) Also a great easter egg in the phantom bow, damn google it, it's actually ridiculous what you have to do

If you want to play Battlefield 4 you should absolutely buy the premium edition. While it's not 100% necessary to play it does enhance the game A LOT.

It gives you new maps, new weapons, events and much more, like you jump the queue of everyone who hasnt premium... Imo, is worth the 20 bucks, but you dont need it to experience the battlefield...

And i get 1.1MBps T^T

It is only worth getting because of the maps. It gets really boring playing the same 3  maps over and over again.

If you can find it under 30$/€ somewhere, I'd say go for it. Not worth the full price tag IMO, but for 30€ or bellow it's worth it. No need to buy new DLCs that come out after buying the Premium edition, which is nice.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

I have 250GB cap and I've used more than that every month like 400-500GB. No extra charges for me lol.

Any ways, Premium is really worth it.
