Battlefield 3’s DLC is almost upon us – unless you own a PS3 – and as you may have heard, it brings a new way of unlocking the new weapons in Battlefield 3. Assignments are being implemented and bellow you will find the full list and details in how you can unlock all ten Back to Karkand weapons. Now I have to say that I’m not a fan of this kind of unlocks and strongly believe that unlocks should stay the way they were. Still, DICE’s attempts to offer something new to the table are noted. What do you think of this new way of unlocking the game’s weapons?
