For those who haven't seen the Season 7 trailer yet, go watch it. it looks epic :DAs for the reworked Stadium map, I think it's a great compromise between having another map and re-using arguably the best asset of the Hourglass map. There is the outside parking area and the inside of the stadium looks to be re-worked to accommodate more players. People will start crying that Dice are lazy and whatnot, but its another infantry clusterF map and it comes as a bonus to what looks to be an amazing map set in Atacama desert.Say what you want, but it honestly looks amazing.

Can't wait to see what the new content offers!

we are at the point with this franchise were release content is being sold as "new" and "fresh" content..... what a time to be alive

I don't have many fond memories of the stadium from the original Hourglass (mostly play Breakthrough so only went in there a few times in Conquest), but I think the rework looks decent. I'm quite interested in how the different levels will work and I enjoy meat-grinding, so I'm looking forwards to trying it out.

@X-Sunslayer-X I'll take this any day, over any dlc maps from the previous titles that went extinct weeks after release.Sure it's a rework, but a welcome one

The stadium was highly underutilized so I'm glad to see it return. I think the main issue with it outside of Hazard Zone was how far into one team's base it was in other modes, making it way harder to get proper matchups

I think reworked Hourglass Stadium looks awesome.

It's hard to get excited over them giving us stadium back also considering the time this rework has taken. The other map looks great though. Right up my street.

I am fine with this. We get an additional map and it was hotly requested. I get that it's not completely new, but in this form, it will be.

@X-Sunslayer-X That's the thing with "Live Service". They're not selling you anything, they're throwing you scraps as if you're a stray dog on the street. There is nothing you can do about it.

And compared to previous seasons, this is a big improvement.

Besides, we're getting an actual new map that looks amazing, 3 new primary weapons, and a new, remote-controlled, flying, infantry farming machine. I cannot wait to drink the tears of infantry.

EA lies, hourglass stadium is not a "new map". We should be getting 3 maps with hourglass stadium as a rework.

2x infantry biased maps- YAY!
