    Base game only - what am I missing?

    I bought the game as a pre-owned 'Limited Edition' (I'm guessing any bonuses/DLC included will therefore have been void by the original owner of the game) but with all the bundles out there (some people saying they paid as much as £100 for theirs), I'm starting to wonder what I'm missing out on.

    A couple of facts:

    • I'm only interested in the solo campaign
    • I don't bother with the arcade or map editor


    The only additional content I might be interested in is the Vietnam DLC, but I'm guessing I can add that myself from the PS Store, yes??

    Finally, I don't have a PS subscription (the one that allows you to play online). Could I still play the Vietnam DLC?

    The DLCs are purchasable separately and are not contingent upon online subscriptions.

    You'll be fine, there were some extra items in more expensive editions, but pretty trivial variants of what's in the game anyway.

    The season pass can be purchased separately but certainly worth checking if the DLCs require PS subscription, don't know that.

    Thanks for clearing @SofaJockey.

    How the hell do you tag a name in a post? I know it can be done cos I've seen it.
