he says he lost his stats bro. He also lost premium switching from ps3 to pc and didn't want to pay for it all over again on top of resetting his player. I completely understand him. I was literally about to buy the $60 digital deluxe for pc until I read this post and found out my stats won't transfer either. See i'd be willing to pay but not start my character all over again . Pretty much a fail straight through if you ask me. :/
It seems I meant to quote the post above him regarding stats. Soldier progress has always been separate on all platforms for Battlefield games, and in almost all other games as well. Only recently have companies like DICE with BF4, Blizzard with Diablo III and Rockstar with GTA V offered a cross platform character import feature. However those features have been extremely limited usually limiting which platforms can be imported to.
I completely understand your and the other poster's frustration about starting over on a new platform as I am a premium member in BF4 on all 5 platforms. It would have been nicer and cheaper if my soldier was used across all platforms rather than having to re-earn everything and purchase premium several times. That being said many people also like starting over so perhaps in the future companies will give us a choice as to use our current soldier or start over.
