Tomorrow the delayed DLC for Battlefield:Bad Company 2 will launch.

There are 4 kits, which has a unique uniform and weapons camo for each class. The guns are: M16A2, UMP-45, MG3 and M95 SNIPER.
The pack also includes 12 new awards and 4 achievements.

The only way to get your hands on these here in North America is by using the promo codes from specialy marked Dr. Pepper products. In Europe you will have to shell out some money, and at 160 MS points a kit.
Codes can be redemed here (http://www.drpepper.com/promotions/ea/)

I do know that you can get these codes off a drink at Taco Bell right now along with the normal Dr. Pepper 20oz bottles and 2 liters.

I've gotten 2 codes from the people here at work, they love their Taco Bell. If I get some extras after I get my 4 I'll hook you guys up with them.

As far as I can understand, yes. Won't know more till they add the BC2 stuff to the Dr. Pepper page. I will keep you updated.

I don't know what's going on. I loaded BC2 this morning and recived an update, but no new achievements.

Went to the in game store, the camo packs are still in the unreleased list. The only game add on listed for BC2 in the VIP pacakge.

That and as Vampero stated, Dr. Pepper does not have BC2 on the site yet.

Where is the new stuff at EA/DICE? :confused:

Yeah, I see you have been lighting up their boards. I think I was the first to mention it wasn't working. We just have to wait for EA, or DICE, or Dr. Pepper, or all of the above need to pull their head out of their a**.

Small update. I loaded up BC2 at lunch and the camo packs were taken off of the Battlefield store in the game.

Looks like they are working on it. Hopefully we will hear something soon. I will keep you posted.

Looks like alot of people jumped on this. Every game I was in last night had someone playing in the new gear.

I had one guy message me and say i was cheating because I had a gold gun icon on the killcam. LOL

I got all of the kits. You have to right click on the "claim your prize here" below the mass effect 2 icon. Copy the URL and paste it but go to the end of it and change the =3 to =4. this will allow you to select your which game you want the code for. Also make sure you are logged into EA games and it's linked to your gamertag or it will not give your new kits. the only problem i have now is that I got all the new awards, however I still did not earn the achievements. Do I need to download something else? I hit the xbox guide button on the controller and viewed my achievements and it did not have the new four listed under Battlefield bad company 2 achievements so I'm assuming I'm missing an update or DLC
