@ArchAngeL-PCX It took 14 months to get 18 new maps.
@Chief2GFDFor BFV? Yeah it did. I meant 18 maps total btw, not 18 new ones. I know better than to ask that lol.
BF4 had 10 maps at launch. China Rising DLC added 4 a couple months later. Second Assault DLC added 4 more maps by March of the next year. That's what was ready to play when it stopped rubber banding for me. And Naval Strike DLC showed up a month or so later with 4 more maps.
That's the benefit of Premium Pass. It locked them into having to deliver 5 DLC packs they already promised. BFV and these "live service" games promise nothing and can give you as little or as much as they want...or be cancelled at any point.

@ArchAngeL-PCX I agree that the Premium pass was a good idea and maybe they should have gone that route with 2042.
- 4 years ago@Chief2GFD Yeah I do too. Even with the launch state of this game, I'd consider buying it. But I think it would have been delayed a year. Pretty sure they had to be already working on DLC by launch for those premium passes to deliver. Likely the first DLC was ready at launch, so they could deliver it a month or two later. This game would need a year to get to that point.

@ArchAngeL-PCX I am cautiously optimistic that they follow through with the Seasons and the content "promised".

@Chief2GFDI hope they follow through long term too. Battlefront 2 still burns a bit. That was another game they promised to support for "years to come". They cancelled it right when they got it turned around. Even critics like IGN were re-reviewing it, saying it was finally the Battlefront game they wanted at launch.
- 4 years ago@Chief2GFD You know I just realized, they basically did sell a "premium pass" of sorts. People who bought into the Gold and Ultimate editions were promised I think the first 4 seasons of content included. And they have yet to set a date for Season 1 lol. Given that seasons are likely the standard $10 each, thats $40 for the year which is just shy of the $50 for a Premium Pass.
So yeah...give me Premium Pass any day. Premium Pass >>>>>>>> Season Pass lol
