Re: BF2042 Year 2 leaked

@Adamonic We're still in "Year 1" of content. The first 4 seasons are part of the Year 1 bundle.

If they market one season as "Year 2 content" it would be lame.
And as I said, they might want to avoid making same mistake again.

But who knows...

    @UP_LordPlumber I would be shocked.

    They told us you could get the next content with Boins, my assumption is that would be what they are now calling Year 2. Otherwise, are they saying you have to buy each new Season 5-8 for Year 2, or are you buying Year 2 which gives you 4 additional seasons?

    To me, it just makes more sense that they rebranded anything after Season 4 as Year 2. Again I could be totally wrong.

    @Adamonic Any bets it takes just more boins than can be earned over year 1? I’m very very curious about the cost of S5.

    @Adamonic You'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.

    I honestly don't think they change the season cost from the 1000 boins. Which just leads into if you buy the season pass once, and complete it, it carries forward to the next one. I haven't spent any of the boins I've earned since buying the first season which means I always have enough for the next one.
