    Back To Karkand is a great DLC. The four maps are true classics from a glorious past, now even more awesome than ever thanks to the Frostbyte 2 engine. The new objective system is really nice and grants a brand new experience to the original game.

    An odd mixture of the classic and the inessential, but there's no arguing over the quality of at least three of the maps in this relatively content rich download.

    Finally some DLC with some value! New maps, vehicles, weapons, and objectives just add to an already amazing online experience. These maps, although having been released before in past games, have been redone with exceptional care and quality. If this is the standard that this franchise is going to have with their DLC, then I am already anticipating the next batch.… Expand

    I've got about 6 1/2 days logged into this game so this is about an as honest Review from a big fan as you can get. 1st thing I noticed is the the servers are right back to square 1/ launch week. Tons of issues. I have a few issues the 1st week but nothing near what Im currently experiencing. I haven't had 1 night (2-4 hours) without losing a connection to EA. Now as for the DLC itself. Awesome, BUT I cant stand the conquest assault. Its not a normal conquest, you cant avoid it on specific maps. If it was a new game mode like rush that would be awesome but if you want to play all the maps on conquest, then youre going to get stuck with a few conquest assault matches as that is the only was to play 2 of the 4 new maps. In all honesty I have gone to selecting only servers that don't have these maps. I hate to say that because I was awaiting these from launch day . The assignments are a great addition. The new vehicles are great and the maps look outstanding are are fun to play. Hopefully they will adjust the match issues in future DLC. But even with my issues with it I still LOVE BF3… Expand
