@ImTylerBrown @Endzeitkind @pillowfort @passy @RobParker231 Happy to clarify this one for you, guys. We would never offer a pre-order exclusive that creates an imbalance in a game's single or multiplayer experience - here's some more info on Bursts that we hope clears things up. Bursts, like Amazon's Deadly Force Burst pre-order offer, are special abilities you can equip to your multiplayer character Loadout. Like Bullet Time, they only last for short periods at a time, and you can choose one at a time to equip your character with for a match. They've all been balanced to ensure they're each equally deadly, it's just a matter of which special power you personally like best for your gameplay strategy. Also, all pre-order bonuses will be made available to everyone shortly after launch.
