VideoGamer.com writes: "I guess the biggest problem with Close Quarters, though, is in its longevity. There's no doubt DICE has done sterling work in creating a Call of Duty-esque offshoot within its already sparkling world of violence and explosions, and in doing so has really shown off just how good the gun-on-gun combat in Battlefield 3 actually is. But it's just not Battlefield, and after a few weeks - days, even - I'm convinced the hardcore will go back to the main game and the unscripted drama therein.
As good as Close Quarters is, then, it just doesn't have the tools to offer up anything so profound at Battlefield 3 proper. Where are the war stories - the incredible emergent drama where you're completely enraptured by the moment and living out these boy-soldier fantasies? There's a reason that these 15 million people aren't playing Call of Duty. For all its triumphs, Activision's behemoth just isn't Battlefield. And while a fine effort, nor is this."
On the occasion of E3 and the fact that the mass disclose details about the upcoming Battlefield 4, EA decided to give away for free one of the most interesting additions to Battlefield 3 - Close Quarters. All well and good, but it disappeared from the PS Store.
Go into the game and it will send you a message to download it from the game. It's already free.
Lol no you were absolutely correct about how to get the dlc(I remember seeing it on there yesterday).
I actually gave you +helpful because you did what the author of the article could not.... look for a solution yourself.
I was just giving you a hard time. ;)
I'll + your reply simply for you being confident enough to take a joke at your expense.
There is a photo attached to text showing there's no Close Quarters in in-game store. So, that doesn't help.
To celebrate the unveiling of Battlefield 4 and the 1 billion hours of Battlefield 3, the Close Quarters DLC is being given away for free to anyone that plays Battlefield 3.
I may not even buy BF4 premium. I bought Bf3 at launch for 64 dollars and premium for 49.99. Thats over 100 dollars. A couple months later they decide to sell the "Premium version" for 59.99.
Well, as of now its 2 for 1 on PS3 with game sharing. Dunno if that'll change, but I pitched in $20 with a friend and we both got it.
The maps are alright, but the real biggie here is the weapons that come with the DLC.
My favorite weapons are pretty much all from CQ aside for the AS Val.
Nice.It's actually the only DLC i didn't buy haha.Time to jump back in the battlefield
lol so a year and a half later, they give away the worst DLC pack of the bunch. Well it's free anyway.
Why does it have to be the crappiest of all DLCs?
I couldn't stand close quarters.

Why even bring up Call of Duty? Close quarters is fun. I don't have to worry about my team being all snipers. It's fun for what it is and I'm sure armored kill will be way better.
