BF2042 Future Expansions

@BonthorryDeWappy  Hey,

At the moment there is no detailed information about the content in the future.

Information about Live Service which will be in Battlefield 2042 provides the following:

We’re taking a new approach to live service for a Battlefield game where players will be given the services and evolution they have come to expect from modern multiplayer games, all aimed at keeping the community playing together for years to come.

We’ll be evolving our world and expanding on the fiction through Seasons, each one lasting for about three months. Every Season will come with a new free and paid-for Battle Pass, delivering new content to chase after.

In our first year of live service, we will deliver four Seasons, with four Battle Passes, four new Specialists, along with more fresh content.

We’ll have more to share on the first Season of Battlefield 2042 before launch.

All specialists will be available to all players, no matter game edition or battle pass.

They're not supposed to be locked behind a pay-to-win wall.

Hi @IIPrest0nII ,

I see that EA Marketing have kept the same fluffy phrasing as they used at their initial reveal of paid-for battle passes in the BF2042, and still not telling anything about what it really means at all.

Like this cryptic part...:

1. So what is the free part?
   
   
2. And what is the paid-for part?

The fun running around making the BF2042 game a quiz show is long gone.  Time for EA to deliver some real answers now please.

What we know is that maps will be free for everyone and new equipment/specialists can be earned without paying money

However, they are being deceptively vague on what is actually being included with the season passes and how you access that content once available.

And even part of that 'what we know' is intentionally kept deceptively vague.

Aka, great, so we can grind our way to new equipment/weapons and specialists?  Like maybe accumulating 100M XP and you earn the right to select a new Specialist to your BF2042 portfolio.  Or....   maybe you want to pay the $40 and buy it direct from EA to have it from launch day?

Reality is simply that EA have told us near absolutely nothing so far.

Especially their entire monetizing model for this game has still to be revealed.

Anybody daring to bet on that all will be wonderful clear on launch day?

If the speculated amount of stuff in each season is accurate

In 1 year we will have:

• 14 Specialist (Currently 10)

• 15 BF2042 Maps (Currently 7)

• 14 Portal Maps (Currently 6)

• 4 Hazard Zone Update (Similar to that of Apex?)

• 24-32 Additional Weapon (Currently 22 if we only count BF2042)

• 8-12 New Vehicle (Currently 15)

Those figures are ambitious even by the old premium model standards. One thing that has been specifically stated with the year 1 pass is that there will be 4 new specialists.
