    A load of nonsense really.

    Whats the point in stats when they can be boosted in this way. I see no point in it, why not leave it alone. Annoys the hell out of me.

    Not really much of an excuse to be fair.

    Sorry wifey cancel everything we had planned for the weekend It's Double XP weekend on Battlefield.

    I can see it now.

    Oh Double XP weekend, why didn't you just say so sweetheart. Would you like me to get some beer, ribs and snacks in? Would you mind if i sat beside you and watched you all weekend? I just love seeing you capture Flags and destroy M coms. God you're so sexy and commanding crashing your fully loaded transport hellie into the side of that mountain.




    Sorry went off on one a bit there.

    For some reason, they're running Double XP today, although it isn't supposed to be until tomorrow.

    Does this help you with getting assignments done, or unlocking attachements for guns? Or is it just that you rank up quicker?

    Just rank up quicker. Sure attachments, guns and assignments all require a specific amount of kills... Double XP means sweet F.A in reality

    Does anyone only seem to be getting a fraction of total XP "doubled"?
    Award Score 5200
Squad Score 180
Team Score 1680
Objective Score 300
General Score 4666
Recon Score 7226
Bonus Score [B]400[/B]
Combat Score 7226
Total Score 12426

    I think bonus score is referring to the double XP.

    Did anybody notice it doubling the double XP during the last hour? (11.00pm-11.59pm). I played a conquest and deathmatch which both ended with the "multiplayer period x2" message, then doubled it a second time. Not complaining anyway, got 3 ranks up yesterday and a good bit of stuff unlocked for jets and choppers :D

    Yeah, the x2 XP seems to have just been doubling whatever additional "bonus" XP you got for ribbons and medals and such.

    I primarily play on the xbox so it's nice to rank up fast on my PC account to catch up with the xbox one

    For a player at your Rank maybe. For guys just starting out it's a quick jump up to different guns and such.
