my question is the server queue priority will this apply to our servers, i mean it seems out of order if BK members are queuing to get in and a non-BK'er premium player trumps us in our place in the queue. will we have the ability to switch this off?

To be honest, this isnt the biggest reason I purchased the package, but one of the main reasons.  I think its an awesome thing to have.  When you go to theme parks, you can purchase an "Express" pass that lets you to the front of the line.  If someone has the money for it, then so be it.

I think it's horrible that  the Premium purchasers get priority. I'd be surprised it was in any way adjustable.

I think you have to be VIP members of the servers if you want to have priority (I think slots can be reserved through procon) - I'd be surprised if that is implemented though. However I'd reserve space for admins.

Queuing is very civilised unless you can't stand the wait ...

I agree the 'priority' queue is lame and should've never been included, EA/DICE are making second class citizens out of those who either can't afford premium or don't wish to purchase all the DLC [as CQ is really a CoD knockoff, and not a BF style product]. It's just  low watermark marketing that alienates the player base for the sake of a few dollars.

EDIT: I think the 'Premium' badging is a little over the top too, it should've been low key like the B2K badging -- but like the above EA aims low

Awfully presumptuous of EA/DICE.  My group pays the rent for the server so WE decide who has priority in the queue, not how many $$ some pubber gave to EA/DICE.

Ok...question on this "Premium" expansion packs.  I assume that the premium package is just that and I would need to get the actual game as well, correct?  I was just checking out Origin and EA/DICE websites and saw the premium package, but it wasn't really clear if the "base" game came with the package or not.  Any one out there know if I have to buy the base game first, then the premium DLC??

Premium does not include the base game.  You must purchase the base game.
