So not only can you get a free rank-up from being a veteran and a free rank-up from preordering from Gamestop/EB Games but you ALSO can get an exclusive gun (the Scar 11) from either preordering from BestBuy or separately purchasing the flashdrive dogtag/coupon pack from them for $10. Check here:

Either buy the pack separately and get free shipping or get the pack for free with a preorder. Spiffy!

However, according to the BF2142 site, it's exclusive to this BestBuy promotion.

Taken from EA's site to claim your promotional reward (http://battlefield.ea.com/battlefield/b … eapon.aspx)

"The Scar 11 with a new look and feel is an exclusive reward for pre-ordering Battlefield 2142™ from Best Buy in North America or Future Shop in Canada. As Battlefield gamers can attest, unlocks are one of the most appealing aspects of the franchise - it's all about getting the points you need to unlock all of the best weapons. However, no amount of points will ever get you this weapon, so if you haven't pre-ordered yet, find out more here www.bestbuy.com."

I guess it's possible that the gun just looks different...but that would be fantastically silly. Compared with the EBGames promotion that would be worthless.

It's just a new skin on the gun...nothing special and no advantage.

k, WTF, we up here in Canada have BOTH Best Buy and Futureshop

And is it just me, or are they trying to fuck with us with all these special offers. Why would they need to give away free shit if the game was extremely good?

The promotion is just like all the rest that best buy does with a new game coming out.. you get some trinket, or an in game item and the 10 dollars is supposed to be a reservation for purchasing the game so you get your 10 dollars back in the form of a discount on the purchase of the game.
