I believe we have already downloaded it with the last patch. Tomorrow's date will simply unlock it. Like buying "Rise of Flight" aircraft.

I have a quick question. Wasn't I supposed to get a free silencer for a sniper rifle for prepurchasing BF3?

You get a flash suppressor for the SKS.

Is it unlocked or do I have to jump through some hoops? Guess I'll go load it up to see if its there.

You need to unlock the SKS first. Whether or not you get that flash suppressor right away or after a certain number of kills (like all other attachments), I'm not sure, but I presume the former as there are no kill criteria attached to it.

Take a look here: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/soldier/Coot_SimHQ/iteminfo/srSKS/272557211/pc/

The SKS is unlocked automatically as part of that pack you get. When I entered in my code, it unlocked instantly.

We got our server running asap this morning.
There was a queue of 22 to get on it!

I have 3 days off to bring back (good) memories I hope.

I'm impressed by those maps and they require team of more than 4 people IMHO. 64 players is not enough - bring full 128!

I like bigger maps with smaller numbers... more of a chance to be tactical... suppress and flank. wink

Ok,I relent.
The new maps are awesome.I played 5 hours straight last night.
Lots of learning to do on old maps.
Now I'm going to have problems going back to the std maps.

DICE,can I have Dragon Valley and Dalian Plant next please?

The maps are good, but the game play sucks big time! The amount of basecamping going on, and theres nothing you can do, you spawn, you die.. repeat infinitum... even had one AH-1 rule an entire map on its own, couldnt shoot it down as sams are useless now, and he was travelling fast and still scorring accurate hits with the cannon so far out he was only a pixel.... and its not just one server, its fricking most of them so far.... don't get me started on the F-35... cant turn for crap in that, just hang a sign on my back saying shoot me down... because if I dont kill the SU-35, he just turns around and blamo...

theres plenty you can do... play on servers with admins, leave a server if it's a bunch of BS...etc etc... we all see those problems... you just got to do something about it. wink

BTW, does anyone know if those new "assignments" are for the old maps too... or just the new ones?
