So... the PREMIUM content doesn't do anything, basically? No more episodes?

Hello, I think I've been duped.  I bought Hardline on special for Black Friday.  Premium?  More cops'n'robbers and other storylines?  Mmmm!  I got it all!

Now, I can't seem to find where to play the episodes I bought.  From more research, it appears all I bought for "premium" was access to more maps for multiplayer only?!?

On top of that, even though I didn't buy this game for multiplayer, when I go to multiplayer - I have all filters wide open - and I only see ONE game with ONE player waiting!  So, tell me is this right, NO ONE plays this game online anymore, right?

SO basically I got duped into buying premium when it does nothing for me?  I thought the game was just "Hardline", if I'd realized it was like the Battlefields of old with a very thin campaign for single player I would have stayed far away.  (although at least BF1 had a decent single player campaign)  I beat the single player campaign on the hardest mode in less than 10 hours, and that was replaying missions/episodes often to try to get all evidence and special warrants arrested rather than killed.

    No comment from anyone?  Just want to make sure I am not missing out on additional single player missions.  Assuming I am correct, and the bonus content I bought was all for non-existing multiplayer game action only, I am going to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.  I don't think it is correct to be selling bonus content that has no use.  I find it akin to a car dealer selling a custom exhaust kit... for a Tesla.

    Hi @RealRockafella

    When reviewing the Hardline Premium Pass on Origin the product features mentions it's 4 Multiplayer expansions. 

    https://www.origin.com/usa/en-us/store/battlefield/battlefield-hardline/expansion/battlefield-hardline-premium#store-page-section-features

    I'm sorry the purchase wasn't exactly what you envisioned it. If you have any concerns regarding purchases made on your Origin account please don't hesitate to contact an advisor to look into this with you.

    Thanks @EA_Blueberry - I do see there it describes it succinctly.  I believe the store page I bought it from though was much more confusing, and I was sure it didn't mention multiplayer only for those expansions.  I wish you guys would develop more single player missions for all the Battlefield series actually.  I used to play multiplayer only but nowadays with a not-so-good Internet connection and also the apparent need to practice to even have any fun playing multiplayer, single-player is much more relaxing and enjoyable.  Maybe those catchy titles blinded me to the multiplayer-only nature of the expansions.

    Don't forget, the other thing is - when I try to find a multiplayer game, it said there were none!  So even beyond how I read the description, still seems kind of weird selling multiplayer content when no one apparently plays the game anymore in multiplayer.  (which is too bad, I could have really gotten into it perhaps)

    I appreciate your response, again.

    We'll do our best to pass along feedback from the community to the development teams. I can't guarantee there will be any more content for Hardline but with BF1 and BFV there have been a lot of positive reactions to the War Stories, so we'll just keep letting them know there is a demand for them.

    Thanks for being a fan of the Battlefield franchise though @RealRockafella!
