Well, Battlefield Bulletin posted it on Twitter a little while ago like it was now official, so I don't know to be honest.
Still sucks either way.
*EDIT*
If it's inaccurate, I'm sure one of the CMs will let us know shortly.
Nope not surprised at all, I am (and always have been) a big advocate for the premium model over the so-called "live-service" model.
What "live service" really means is that they push games out there the door that aren't even finished and then spend the majority of the "live service" just fixing bugs and adding content that should have been in the game to begin with.
And don't even get me started on the MTX aspect of the live service model.

Totally agree with you, I would take the Premium Model over the Live Service any day, there is simply no comparison.
The equivilent of one DLC. for the entire lifespan of the game. Awful just awful.

@Ironhead841Are you surprised? This is what every pro-premium player have been telling you. Free content means no content. Either you pay to get post launch content OR you get a few breadcrumbs for free and don't complain because its "Free"
BFV was live service and we got a lot more than 'breadcrumbs' for free including 14 new maps and 2 new armies with faction specific vehicles as well as new weapons.
And because all of the post launch content is not locked behind a Premium paywall I can play on every new map in Conquest and Breakthrough on Australian servers during evenings and weekends 4 years after the game came out.
It was literally impossible to find populated Australian servers for any BF4 premium DLC map packs a month or so after they released.
Full list of all free content:
