Guys , i am ordering this game from Flipkart. Just need info regarding which version to go for. Is Premium worth for ~3.4k?

Also i have come across that after installing , there's an additional 6GB of data to be downloaded from Origin. Can somebody please enlighten me what exactly is this? New to online gaming :)

Premium for 3.4k isnt worth. Rather buy any one dlc in future after seeing its gameplay. Basic maps are too good anyways. Just buy a normal version for now. This 6 gb data are updates that are required to be downloaded n installed to play the game. Or else u will be suffering frequent disconnection issues.

BF3 is boring :|
any noob with a machine gun can clear the whole server..thanks to "suppression" effect.

Are you sure a noob can do it? Coz I havent cleared any server yet with a machine gun :p

Bf3 is not at all boring, people all over the world have loved this game and still continue playing it.

^^well....am seeing noobs doing that...i mean how frustrating it is when you see bunch of guys with T88 LMG and scope clearing Operation firestorm?
even the cranes are not safe....
and the suppression effect is effingly bad...it was better before the patch...

In recent months the influx of noobs has increased, all they know is spamming a T88 or M249 with extended mag, idiots

All pro's are some or the other day "noobs" when they first enter in the FPS era scene and only BF3 has such a responce till now that so much of "newbs" are inflowing in the game till date ...i mean after a whole year of it's release.Telling it from my past experience with this game :p

Not really, the AC 130 flies in a pre-ordained flight-path so shooting it after it does 1 -->2 (maximum) passes should be possible with an Apache / a Mi-25 / 28 OR A-10 / SU-25 (depending on which faction you are in).

ALPHA17 i think you didnt know the rules of AK rush! Everytime
i) the attackers gets the AC130.
ii) we can spawn on AC130 and paradrop right infront of the mcoms
iii) everytime the defending team takes out the AC130, it again spawns to the attackers right in the centre of battlefield!

I feel its very biased! the only thing we can do is continuously take out AC130 with air support while the ground forces defend which is highly impossible (it takes some 8 hits to disable the ac130, and it has flares too)

thats what the PS3 guys say till now. it seems the situation is pretty bad in consoles. for us PC guys it might not be that bad as there will be more people with the stingers/iglas. we will have to wait and see.

but anyway this week or next week probably a server side patch is coming to increase the spawn time for the AC-130. so that might address the problem a bit.
