Start a new season pass.

ResistanceRodian · November 16, 2018 4:33AM

Horrible idea and question but would anyone buy a season/game pass to know for sure what DLC we are getting? Because this free content has been very... let's say
Lacking?

rollind24 · November 16, 2018 5:28AM

I would. I want to give them money, I really do but the content is so slow on release why buy anything?

Darthharlott · November 16, 2018 5:38AM

I would in a heartbeat. This free live service is a joke.

BucksawBoushh · November 16, 2018 5:42AM

Seasons Pass >

TariboWest · November 16, 2018 5:58AM

I would pay for Rogue One Content and Exfiltration maps.

MagicalMuffinDruide · November 16, 2018 6:10AM

I’d gladly pay for clone wars content. In fact, I will. I bought grievous’s stuff with real money and I will for all the other heroes, just keep it coming!

Kenobi_Dude · November 16, 2018 6:12AM

Yes I would pay as well. At this point, I’m interested in their plans into 2019 after “all of” the CW stuff is released. If there are no major content plans until summer 2019 then I’d definitely want an expansion/dlc/season pass sooner.

LunarCoil · November 16, 2018 6:37AM

Paid DLC is guaranteed content. I would buy a season pass to get more DLC.

SrawDawg · November 16, 2018 6:45AM

Considering all the money I will save on Battlefield V I would have more than enough money to buy a season pass.

Definitely, I was against removing it from the beginning. I'd rather pay and get content. If u can't save 50$ and buy it, you have to reconsider your life.

B b b but the kids!? Mow your neighbors lawn or something, money doesn't come flying your way..

A steady stream of especially new maps is essential for me. Otherwise I grow tired real quick.

Empire_TW · November 16, 2018 8:47AM

Depends on what's in it.

JediPacoElFlaco · November 16, 2018 9:23AM

Yes i will buy it

Lawnmow3rMan · November 16, 2018 10:54AM

Id like to say I'd buy it but I'd be skeptical because they release content soooooo slowly and whenever they do it's inundated with bugs. Free is good but I guess you really do get what you pay for.

Exactly.

Blinker · November 16, 2018 3:06PM

I defiantly wouldn't give these guys any more money, they don't fix bugs and they don't deserve any money, I mean what's the point of new DLC if they can't even fix the base game.

Makir1000 · November 16, 2018 4:57PM

NO! Base game is bugged, free promised DLC are super late, after Crate there are no new maps for almost a year! Even now why are we waiting end of month to get Geonosis? Or new game mods. Lack of maps killed this game. No new weapons. There is no customization for clone tropes or hero's. So many reasons for NO!

This is the last game I bought from EA. If the make new SWBF III it should be FREE on the house for all suckers who bought first two games (like me).

EA needs to learn a lesson here! Listen to what fans want in games, and ditch any DLC extra charging, as all DLC are part of the game you pay in the first place. You pay for the game, that's it! No extra paid content. Period! Hate that robing. They make more than enough money greedy *****. Don't throw ideas at them and feed there ego! They need to become humble and start making games players want.

stevenomes · November 16, 2018 5:02PM

I spent $30 last night at bar with friends. that's for a few hours of fun. imagine how many hours of dlc content I could have gotten. yes I'd pay for dlc instead of wasting it at a pub.

rollind24 · November 16, 2018 5:11PM

Exactly how I look at it. I have no problem spending money on something I’ll spend multiple hours playing compared to other entertainment costs. The only thing I didn’t like about last games DLC were their playlists but after seeing how their live service is I would take that again.

ResistanceRodian · November 16, 2018 10:05PM

So if a new season pass was announced right now would you guys buy it? A year after the game came out

rollind24 · November 16, 2018 10:14PM

I would yes, if it had a roadmap that showed what I’d be paying for

MyLittleGreenFriend · November 16, 2018 10:15PM

However, this would never happen since BF2 was marketed as a free DLC game.

Zappa2510 · November 17, 2018 7:50AM

at this point they would have to market it as an expansion I think. might be best way to go.

Empire_TW · November 17, 2018 11:29AM

Paid DLC is superior however people would freak over it simply existing.

For some reason, paid DLC is taboo for SW fans and BF2015 simply having it made people angry.

Everything said here should be ignored.

Rugbymaster1 · November 17, 2018 4:19PM

I would love paid dlc. They should just do it and say instead of a new bf game we are adding onto this one.

Call it BF2.5

tommytom64 · November 17, 2018 4:44PM

They should have experimented with a "mini season pass" system, sort of like Siege. For each Season, offer a $10-$20 season pass that gives you early access to any new maps and modes and instant access to everything else like new weapons, appearances, Star Cards/abilities, vehicles, heroes, etc.. whereas everyone else has to unlock them (not through a terrible grind though). Maybe consider offering a slightly more expensive "year pass" too for those who know they'd buy every season pass anyway.

Agree, that’s because for many players battlefront is a first online shooter. It has a huge demographic that doesn’t discriminate age or gender and it shows.

Adcro · November 17, 2018 6:41PM

It's pretty funny, 3/4 of the commentaries seemed to have been written by EA staff, because i don't see the point here. A guy who played this game, who really played it, would never pay anything for it. Why? because there are glitch existing since the launch of the game and still not fixed, so 1 year now. Same for the lack of heros or map.
How do you want real players giving money to EA if obvisously they don't work? Or don't want to. Anyway it's obvious they fired or reduced the staff because of the loot crates polemic, they didn't want to invest anymore in the game after all that mess.
How to kill one of the most popular franchise with greediness.

This is a bad quality game, we can't ask more from this.

Why are you on the forum discussing a game that you hate and 2 most likely don’t play anymore

Never understood this sort of behaviour

I haven't said i hate this, i just say it's a bad quality game just like any other games in the market.

So it’s bad game but you don’t hate it, makes sense

Ok sorry I misunderstood

angelob6660 · November 18, 2018 3:08AM

After EA/DICE dropped the loot crates they could've added a paid DLC for content. Since we ruined their revenue.
I'll probably get it if it's at a reasonable price.

stevenomes · November 18, 2018 3:44AM

We should all have known what we were getting into after bf2015. Did you pre-order the game? i did but i knew it was probably going to be a slow start, they would add more later but launch is always a bit rough, it flopped even harder than i imagined but was still fun. the better solution for anyone is to wait to buy. the price will drop by christmas you can get the game for $40 or less. imagine the hartache saved if you waited until after progression update to jump in, id like to hear the perspective of those players who bought right after progression update, are they as angry about the game? did they get it for $30?

wait 6 months for them to iron out the bugs and start getting more consistent content drops. the main issue with analysis is we expect more from a $60 game. but at this point, for me at least, there are not a lot of games worth buying at launch unless im really confident its going to be a good game that i play a lot from a trusted publisher. DICE is not close to that. it was going to be a process all along. has it been slower than even imagined? yes. but patience always is the best approach here. if you really want to play at launch then you'll have to take the good with the bad.

I still feel like I got money’s worth times 10 with my preorder. The content at launch was so much more than BF 2015 at launch and I spend more on a night out at the movies with fam than I did for the game. Would loved to have seen the game currently if the Microtransaction fiasco didn’t happen.

I think that’s what disappoints me the most was the hope when I saw how much was in the game at launch and imagining what would come next.

Honestly if I get 10 hours of entertainment from 60 bucks that’s money well spent and I’m way past that in playtime so I’m not disappointed in the initial investment. I’m disappointed in the “live service”.

stevenomes · November 18, 2018 4:11AM

oh im not saying i didnt get my moneys worth. just people who say i paid $60 i am entitled to complete game i can play 365 days a year, its just not realistic for a video game unless its an epic game and there arent many like that. and if thats the way you feel then probably better to wait a few months until price drop or bugs are fixed before jumping in. launch is mostly always rough for most games.

Oh I get it. I know your happy with the initial money spent. I just think a lot of the disappointment is with the “live service” model we got stuck with when MT money vanished which doubly sucks for me because it really never bothered me all that much. I could live with getting Specialist upgrades while playing Heavy if the content kept flowing

Chem0 · November 18, 2018 6:22AM

Game companies sure did sell the idea of paid DLC to masses last decade. Make unfinished game, release it and then patch it to finished product with paid DLC.
Now even more with microtransactions.
Other craptastic system is this host server which was introduced by CoD MW2.

stevenomes · November 18, 2018 6:30AM

now the next system. release a game with average content, and no paid DLC. all the future content updates will be completely free and released throughout the life of the game. future content will be funded by transactions by making the progression complete grind and the only way to get ahead without wasting all you time is by taking out your wallet. if nobody buys into this system we will turn off the content spicket and throw in a few things here and there that the community has not requested. eventually the game dies due to lack of players.

Start a new season pass.
