They didn't waste anything, your just trying to act like it was a waste. If they gave it to you would you be like
Will they end up selling all that stuff? Maybe some will be given away. Its a win win for all involved. M$ takes a "loss" but not a loss that is felt since they make more than the amount you talking about every month.
So yeah, they couldn't waste money if they tried. (too much money dummy)

The Spin Doctor you're unreal, so many twists and turns,

I don't like it to be honest. You should have to earn it in every game. It also gives people an unfair advantages against those just starting brand new.

Frostbite 3 Supports DirectX 11.1 API – Faster GPU/CPU Performance on PCs and Xbox One
Now this is the interesting bit, DICE confirms that the Frostbite 3 engine supports DirectX 11.1 API as revealed by DSOGaming.
“We use DX11.1, there are some optimizations in it (constant buffer offsets, dynamic buffers as SRVs) that we got in to the the API that improves CPU performance in our rendering when one runs with DX11.1. This will be in BF4.”
This means that PC and Xbox One versions of Battlefield 4 would be more optimized than PlayStation 4. There’s also a hint at AMD’s Next “Never Settle Bundle” featuring Battlefield 4 as a free title which is a good deal for AMD users.

DICE, the developer arm of Electronic Arts responsible for creating the Battlefield franchise, has revealed details about combat vehicles in Battlefield 4. The information was disclosed via a Q&A on EA.com, as part of a new series called Ask DICE - where fans of the game can ask developers questions about the forthcoming title.

The next iteration of the popular video game will feature tanks and helicopters specific to the Chinese army, to make the gameplay experience as authentic as possible, given the game is set in China.

"With the new Chinese setting in the game we can confirm these all-new Chinese vehicles in Battlefield 4, including (but not limited to)...Type 99 MBT, ZFB-05 Armored Car, Z-9 Haitun Transport Heli, Z-10W Attack Heli and DV15 Interceptor Attack Boat," DICE's blog post said.

The post also revealed that amphibious attacks would play a major role in this title, with attack boats like the US' RCB-90 making an appearance. And to add to the excitement, DICE also confirmed drastically revised gameplay while controlling vehicles in-game.

The note said:

"If you need to bail out of your jet-ski or attack boat, now you'll be able to dive underwater or sprint-swim away to escape pursuers. If the situation gets desperate, you'll also be able to use one-handed weapons and one-handed gadgets while in water for the first time."

Battlefield 4 to support custom emblems on vehicles

According to recent revelations from the Battlefield 4 alpha trial, players will be able to not only customize vehicles with camos, but also decals and emblems from their Platoons.

This image from the alpha trial shows a tank and a helicopter with a custom decal on its armor, which likely corresponds to the platoon emblem the player is in. DICE has already confirmed that weapons and vehicles will feature different camouflage options, and the decals seem to be taking the customization to another level.

In Battlelog, players can create and join Platoons, which can be customized with player-made emblems. For Battlefield 4, these emblems now appear to be displayed in-game as well. At least on vehicles. Of course, since these are user-generated, there’s always the risk of offensive material making its way into the game.

It’s unknown whether the decals will be limited to vehicles, or whether players will be able to apply them to weapons and their soldiers as well. So far it looks like Battlefield 4 will be getting a lot more customization options than the previous game in the series, which is always a good thing.

chinese uniforms look badass

they should go further to make the nationalities matter, like make a realism server where you give the americans fewer players but much better vehicles, give the chinese the most players but less advanced vehicles, and the russians be somewhere in the middle. people would have to master different styles of play
