I bought premium when the Hardline beta started, and during it, it was a little hard find full games on DLC only servers, specifically Rush mode. Specifically the earlier three map packs. It didnt affect the base game.
On team death match youd start with four people, and more would trickle into the server so by the time the next match started itd be full. Rush mode didnt seem to find people at all and id be put on servers by myself. Conquest was always full with people. So hit or miss.
The DLC maps are very huge, and best for conquest mode anyway.
Once the beta ended, no trouble with TDM or conquest, still some trouble with Rush. But I feel im enjoying having new maps to play on more than the fact that I can't always play my favorite mode Rush on them.
The DLC maps, and even the parts fenced off for smaller Team Deathmatches, seem way more interesting, cooler, more fun, whatever adjective, than the stock maps. They add things like dirt bikes, drivable forklifts. Youll get like 14 gold battlepacks instantly for signing up.
Its been an okay experience for the $20 I paid for premium. Dont know if youd feel the same for $50 though.
A lot fewer people will buy Hardline day one than tried the beta.
