Battlefield 6 Season 1

Right where to start...

Well after the epic fail of the launch due to licensing issues I find myself yet again wondering what the hell is going on now?

Maybe it could be because I'm old, blind and a little bit thick here BUT I pre-ordered The Phantom edition & was told not only are you getting 24x60 min boosters ( which I ended up having ) but you'll also now be getting not only season 1 for free BUT season 2 for free too.

Now Ive just been to the battlepass area and Ive only been given 22 items out of 155 in season 1 for free EA want you to pay 3300 bf credits each for the other 3 areas? EY? Season 1 is free for me and all pre orders of Phantom edtion so why aren't the season 1 items unlocked and why am I being asked to pay a total of around 10,000 bf credits ( which you have to pay real money for ) if season 1 was free? 

It doesnt stop there either they want you to pay 9900 each for Deniable ops, Soldier of fortune and Pacific Ghost then to top it off 10300 for Ultimate path and another 10k for Prestige path?

So putting season 1 into real money UK 13k of bf credit is £88 then another £88 for prestige...... ** Erm but we're told season 1 was free to preordered Phantom*

Is season 1 free for pre ordered Phantom editions or not because what i can see season 1 isnt free.

 

Can someone explain? Or at least explain how to unlock your entire season1 to those who got it for free?

Thanks in advance

  • Hi D0x13,

    I've not had the time to properly sit down and look at the season pass, but I assume it's similar to BF2042. If it is then access to the premium pass is granted through the premium edition (in this case, the Phantom Edition), but the items themselves still need to be unlocked via gameplay or by purchasing skips.

    As I mentioned, I've not looked into the details at all, so the above may be incorrect.

    PLEASE GOD USE  YOUR VOICE TO MAKE SURE THE BATTLEPASS IS PERMANENT.
    If I don't or can't complete it in time I should be given all the time in the world to finish AFTER season 1.
    FOMO in 2025 is evil, not dumb, straight evil.

    Thanks ElliotH

    Im unlocking stuff as I play in multiplayer BUT my original question was Im confused about season 1.... what are we as the player base being given, I understand you personally have had time to look, because there must be £300 worth of levels as there is no way unless your hacking to do 4 normal levels each with 27 items to unlock and a further 2 elite levels too & you have to complete everything within 85 days.

    Hi help1ng,

    Thanks for the reply. However, my voice carries the same weight and influence as everyone else, as I'm just another player really. 

    I do fully agree that FOMO is not good and should be avoided. I also think that Battlepasses should remain active after each season too, so people can work through them at their own pace.

    My understanding, based on the last game, is that our purchases of the Phantom Edition were to give access to the season pass via the BF Pro Token as a pre-purchase, rather than purchasing all items on the pass outright. 

    Weapons and gadgets that are not unlocked through progressing the pass should be available for unlock after the season through challenges (thats how it worked in 2042, anyway), but potentially any cosmetics or boosts etc that aren't unlocked will be missed (assuming that the season can't be played retrospectively). 

    I've not been able to have a detailed look still, unfortunately, as I've not been able to get on my Xbox to do more than claim BF Pro, but hopefully someone who knows more can explain things better.

    Last I checked this is correct, it works the same as 2042. The premium-version boost purchased the 'premium' battlepass' and boosted through the first 20 or so levels of the battlepass, but everything beyond that has to be earned, it doesn't just grant all of the items of the BP.
