I am pretty new to Battlefield 3 and bought the Premium Edition which includes:
Multiplayer Head Start Kit (18 items)
- heat-seeking AA missiles
- defibrillator
- 40MM grenade launcher
- M249 light machine gun
... and more
unique in-game items
- F2000 Navy Digital Camo
- L96 “Airman.” Plus
- ACB-90 knife
... and more
Features
- ability to reset stats
- queue priority into servers
- new decals for Platoon emblems
- Double XP weekends
- exclusive competitions
... and more
However, am not sure how I can find these extra bonuses I bought? When I joined a multiplayer server, I just had a basic soldier with basic loadout.
If someone else had same as me (ie. Multiplayer Head Start Kit), please advise on best loadout that I can change into.
Thanks!
Since I can't find your account on Battlelog I assume that you're playing on console? Which console? The first place that I'd start is go to the BF3 section in the PSN or XBL store and look for the shortcut kit (I bought the base game at release and purchased premium separately so I didn't have the shortcut kit) as it may be an optional separate download. You'll know if the shortcut is pre-installed because under your in game soldier customization the AA missiles, M320 grenade launcher, M249 SAW etc will be unlocked instead of locked.
The Digital camo will be available once you unlock the F2000, then customize the weapon in between spawns and you can apply the Navy digital camo to it, use the same process for the L96 sniper rifle. The ACB 90 will be your default knife after you download and install the Premium file (if you haven't done this yet go to the Premium section of the BF3 in game store and download premium, then close BF3 and restart BF3 with the premium file present and you should get access to the ACB90 knife etc).
The items in the third section are found on Battlelog mostly or when double XP weekends are run.
