EA have announced their plans for the next batch of DLC for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 with the previously delayed Kit Upgrade pack. The pack is scheduled for release on Xbox Live April 21st and will include 4 different kits for each player class, comprising of new uniforms and camouflaged weapons along with 12 new awards and 4 achievements.
In Europe, each kit will be available separately for 160 MS points or as an inclusive bundle for 440 MS points, whereas the DLC is only available in North America from promotional codes on selected cans of Dr Pepper, bizarrely. A release date for the PS3 and PC versions of the game has yet to be announced.
The question is, will you be willing to part with your cash for these cosmetic changes after the previous map packs were offered for free?

Don’t you get all DLC free if you sign up for that VIP thing that was included with the game?
I believe this is separate to the free VIP downloads.
Nice. I need to get back into this. All the other March releases kinda knocked it out of my 360 disc tray altogether.
I don’t mean to sound like a smart a@$, so please don’t take this the wrong way, the information you have posted here is incorrect.
US gamers will ALSO be able to buy the DLC from Xbox Live if they don’t want to buy the Soda cans, just like the European gamers, we just get the DR Pepper cans extra.
To quote the official Battlefield Blog:
“In North America the kit upgrades are only available on Xbox 360 using the Dr Pepper codes printed on special promotional cans.”
Don’t worry you did sound like a smart A@$! You should probably actually research your statments however instead of trusting what little Jimmy had to say about it. Just remember you know what happens when you ASSume don’t you?
ewwww…
Now I gotta buy some Dr Pepper.
Wonder if it goes good with rum?
What do u care? after the first couple of pints it doesn’t matter
That Dr.Pepper site wouldn’t work
