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.

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.
What if they bring out premium content DLC next year for the game? Would you still buy it?
To be honest, probably not. The only caveat would be if it significantly increased the player count, then maybe.
It would also depend on what that premium content was too, I suppose.

nope. Done with this BF. Nothing but trouble since launch and and minimum effort to fix from EA/DICE who pretty much gave up on it from the beginning.
This whole game has been 1 big beta for their next title, and i helped pay for it like a sucker.
To tell the truth, I believed until the end that Dice would positively surprise me with some news about plans to add new maps to the portal, which they had hoped for from the beginning (rightly so, it is a great idea, only very badly managed / even abandoned) and I did not want to believe, that we will only get a minimum of one map per season in a game that does not even have a single player for full price. In fact, if that turns out to be true (that they will only add two maps to the game) then it really is a blow to the face for the community, he was just taking respect from us and our money. I understand that a lot of people want bf2042 to be dumped and a new game released as soon as possible, but how can you be sure that if they got away with this scam this time around, the situation won't happen again? DICE / EA is doing everything to destroy the Battlefield as they all love, because apparently analysts decided that it is better to spend the crap more often but for more money, because people will buy it anyway ... Sad

@RayD_O1Obviously. Any bit of logic would tell you that paying for content would bring more maps, weapons, vehicles etc.
I would gladly spend 50 euros extra on this game if it means every 3 or so months we're getting a DLC with 4 maps and a bunch of new stuff to play with
Me too in future BF's, I always felt I got my money's worth with Premium. 👍
