DICE is dropping even more information on us today with the reveal of Battlefield: Bad Company 2's Limited Edition. While the boxart is the same as the standard boxes shown earlier today, with the addition of a black stripe with Limited Edition on it, the unlocks that come with the game are all new.

Unlocks are one of the most revered and hated things about a Battlefield game. Some say it's an unfair advantage and others say it helps keep the game interesting. My take has been ambivalent about the whole thing because I'm better with an M16 than a G36 in BF2. Besides, all the cool kids will tell you that unlocks are for pussies.



In any event, the BFBC2 LE comes with six special unlocks (images below) just for buying the game. While two are guns, the other four are more like COD perks than traditional Battlefield unlocks.

Four vehicle warfare unlocks:

• Improved Vehicle Armor – An up-armor package is mounted on all vehicle types, decreasing the effect of both explosive and penetrating warheads, significantly improving vehicle survivability.
• Supreme Vehicle Firepower – Additional weapon packages are mounted for the driver of all armored vehicles, greatly expanding the range of targets the vehicle can successfully engage and destroy.
• Vehicle Motion Sensor – Use this electronics warfare package to locate enemy units in direct proximity to the vehicle.
• Tracer Dart Pistol – This magnetic dart attaches to any vehicle surface, allowing squad members to track, lock on, and fire rockets onto moving targets even beyond line of sight.

Two classic Battlefield 1943 weapons:

• M1A1 Submachine Gun – Reliable but heavy this classic weapon is a powerful force in the hands of any Battlefield veteran.
• M1911 Pistol – Highly customized M1911 are favored for its dependability and the power of its large .45 caliber round.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be released on March 2, 2010.
