Celebrating the new DLC
Just in time for the new "Close Quarters" map pack DLC, Battlefield 3 will be running a Double XP event this weekend, kicking off at 12:01am PDT on June 16th and running until 11:59pm PDT on the next day. Friday's game time won't count as double XP, unfortunately, but it gives players all of Saturday and Sunday to get acquainted with the new maps, return to the older ones, rank up, and maybe pick up some of the online achievements. All ranked servers, maps, and game modes are included.
If you're a member of Battlefield Premium, the newest map pack is readily available. Everyone else will have to wait a few more weeks to pick it up for 1200 MSP, or you can purchase the Premium membership for 4000 MSP.
In case you're bad with timezone exchanges, DICE sent out this key to inform you when it starts in your region:
Los Angeles: 00:01 June 16
London: 8:01 AM June 16
Stockholm: 9:01 AM June 16
Tokyo: 4:01 PM June 16For you gamers in the UK, it's great timing. You can pair up the double XP with your free Xbox LIVE Gold weekend.

| Just a reminder if you are caught boosting you will get reset so just rent a server for a day if you only care for the achievements. |

| Hmm I am not sure about the premium pass if you already own back to karkand dlc to be honest you may save more waiting for a dotw. Anyway the x2xp is good for those looking for the Cornell achievement. |
Play for achievements.
Play for fun. |

| Premium offers a lot of good stuff. I think it's still worth it for me, even though I have BtK already. I might have to pick it up soon. Hoping to get Treezy's take on the service. He's our resident BF3 pro. |

| Premium is definitely worth it. Either buy Premium or don't bother with the mp add-ons. Your choice... |

Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=957ydO8BeWMNot really related to CQ maps. I've experienced this ever since renting a server was possible. It's funny when people show they can't handle power and also must cheat to win. |

I thought the double xp weekend was only for Premium members, I guess I was wrong about that.
My server will be up until next tuesday, everybody is welcome to join. The only rule is to have fun, nobody will be kicked.
