Battlefield Bad Company 2 Limited Edition has gone live for
pre-order
on Amazon, DirectDrive, GameStop and Steam. Limited
Edition comes with 6 unlocks: Improved Vehicle
Armor, Supreme Vehicle Firepower, Vehicle Motion Sensor, Tracer Dart
Pistol, M1A1 Sub-machine Gun, and M1911 Pistol. There's no word yet if
the unlocks will be available to everyone else as a paid download or if
players can access them for free while playing the game. In addition,
buying the game via these eshops will give players access to
the game's upcoming PC multiplayer beta test that starts this Thursday.
Limited Edition Bonuses:
- Improved Vehicle Armor: An up-armor package is mounted on
all vehicle types, decreasing the effect of both explosive and
penetrating warheads, significantly improving vehicle survivability.
- Supreme Vehicle Firepower: Additional weapon packages are
mounted for the driver of all armored vehicles, greatly expanding the
range of targets the vehicle can successfully engage and destroy.
- Vehicle Motion Sensor: Use this electronics warfare package
to locate enemy units in direct proximity to the vehicle.
- Tracer Dart Pistol: This magnetic dart attaches to any
vehicle surface, allowing squad members to track, lock on, and fire
rockets onto moving targets even beyond line of sight.
- M1A1 Sub-machine Gun: Reliable but heavy this classic weapon
is a powerful force in the hands of any Battlefield veteran.
- M1911 Pistol: Highly customized M1911 are favoured for its
dependability and the power of its large .45 caliber round.
