Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Limited Edition Detailed

EA has announced the Limited Edition of Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

The Limited Edition, due to launch at the same time as the game (2 March 2010 in America, 5 March 2010 in Europe) grants players six unlocks on day one.

This is set to give players "a day one advantage in multiplayer matches," which seems a bit unfair to us, but then we're so good we could probably win with, ooh, a custard pie.

There are four "vehicle warfare" unlocks, and two Battlefield 1943 weapons - the latter of which doesn't seem quite in-line with what we knew about BF1943 weapons in Bad Company 2, as the M1911 is news to us - but read on for the details:

• Improved Vehicle Armour - An up-armour 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 armoured 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.
• M1A1 Submachine Gun - Reliable but heavy this classic weapon is a powerful force in the hands of any Battlefield veteran.
• M1911 Pistol - Highly customised M1911 are favoured for its dependability and the power of its large .45 caliber round. [sic]
  

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is due out on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC on 5 March 2010 in Europe. There's no word yet on how much more expensive the Limited Edition will be.
