So apparently Dice is actually cooking second year of content for 2042. Gotta say this makes me extremely happy. This game has so much potential. I hope they won't repeat their BF5 mistake once again.

Um I wouldn't be to sure about that. This could easily be a placeholder for some kind of season 5 bundle. the BFV Pacific was also considered "year 2".
And honestly, if content was really being worked on past season 5, they would be talking about it. There is no reason to hide that kind of information.

@AdamonicYou're just confusing yourself at this point.
Of course Year 2 (season 5 and possibly beyond) will likely be included in the bundle, just as Season 1-4 were in Year 1.
Buying each season separately with boins is just copy pasting CoD system where you buy season pass with in-game currency, and get it back if you finish the season. Which is why we have boins in season pass
I am all for 4 more seasons of content in Year 2 if that is what this is. I am just saying, then the question becomes are we paying for a single season (Season 5), or for 4 more seasons, and what is that going to cost? In the last Podcast, Straatford pointed out that you will be able to pay for "Season 5" with boins, not "Year 2 Upgrade" as it is referenced in the Origin pic.
Again, I am all for 4 more seasons of content, but they have already noted "no more Specialists", which would seem like Season 5 with one map, and maybe a few weapons is it.
For them to go from a partial Season 5 drop to an entire year with 4 more seasons just seems very unlikely.
We will see.
What if DICE marketing deliberately does this in order to influence players to invest more time/money into a game because they perceive longevity? With vague "accidental" messages like this, they get some of that benefit without actually having to commit to anything.
