I had Premium on BF4, but I never got the point of the Battlepacks...it always seems like the same shit (random skin, emblem, XP bonus, and a scope). On Hardline, it seems like battlepacks are a little more useful now that you get to choose which attachments unlock for what gun. I dunno, maybe I just don't get the big draw to them.
I'm still debating on premium this year. I'm honestly not sure if the appeal of the cops/robbers will last long enough for me to justify getting the pack for the all the maps. I did get use out of the BF4 premium because I played that game extensively online (albeit maybe not with you guys) when my buddy that still lived here would come hang out on the weekends we would tear shit up.
Not sure if Hardline will be the same experience, although I seriously do plan on playing with y'all more this year.
I plan on being online tonight for a good bit for you PS4 guys that will be around. I'll even plug in my Turtle Beaches to talk some shit.
