Another question about DLC in Venice

[Rarity]

Hello gentlemen (moderator or just a lurker), I wonder one thing after I read a topic of DLC in Venice.
I have a Origin account that have only BF3 Standard and Back To Karkand DLC. Will I be able to use other DLC contents (Prem stuffs, CQ AK Aftermath and Endgame weapons + maps) even when I don't own them?
(I know Origin makes you download those things even when you don't purchase those DLC)
If unnecessary, I'm sorry and close the topic please.

It does not. It downloads a compability patch. But the DLC maps are only downloaded when you own the respective key for them.

Anyway, if you don't own the DLC maps in form of the standard XPack 1-5 folders you won't be able to play them.
There might be a chance that if you get the DLC files elsewhere it might work because our master server does not differ between the keys. It only checks for a valid license.

So in other words, if some Premium guy shares the DLC files, we can use them on Venice if we get into the beta? And I thought the DLC WERE downloaded when released and when you activate they key or if you automatically activate it through Premium ownership you can play the games instantly, no downloads on top. Someone needs to look into this a bit more. But still, I have tons of friends with Premium so if that 1st option stays, I'm all up for it too

The launcher will not perform a DLC-Check, so if you have the necessary files, you will probably be able to play all DLCs.

I believe Origin has license file data for xpacks as well. Not sure.

No idea, but from what I've heard, the game itself only checks for a valid BF3 license.
Maybe the servers require a DLC license?
