The new DLC for Battlefield 4 should be free

FREEEDOM

Find your Battlefield 4 experience is getting a tad stale? Don’t worry, just yesterday, Dice confirmed that more DLC is on the way. That should make your game brand spanking new! What they didn’t say though was whether the new content would cost you hard earned money or not. Nothing in this world is free (especially with EA), right?

A fan sent a tweet to David Sirland, Producer at DICE, and his response says otherwise.

Excuse me while I rub my eyes here. DICE (and by extension, EA) giving away content for free? Impossible! So the producer thinks the DLC should cost zilch. That doesn’t mean it’ll be the case…

Well ok, maybe it does. Granted, we don’t know what the new content will be yet, but whether it’s brand new modes or weapons, or even just classic maps from previous titles being ported over, it’s nice of them to offer it for free regardless.

In fact, it’s basically guaranteed that we will see certain maps from previous titles given new life (via Battlelog).

We’re aware of – and humbled by – the many requests of re-creating classic Battlefield maps within the Battlefield 4 universe. Now we have a question for you: if a reimagining of a Battlefield classic map was to happen, which map would that be?

Well, what do you want from them? Place your vote right here.

Do you think we’ll be getting more than just classic maps? Are you happy that DICE are slapping on a price tag of zero with this DLC?

          He failed landing on his feet though 🙁

          Height: 10/10
          Landing on feet: 1/10
          Face planting: 10/10

      I’ll give it a 7/10. He messed up the landing.

          In hindsight I might have been a bit harsh. Landing face first really increases the difficulty rating of the landing. I’ll give it an 11/10.

    CD Projekt RED is giving 16 DLC for free. Now everyone is going to want free DLC.

    The Witcher 3 is going to be released complete with minor bugs. You know CD Projekt RED is going to check everything. Now everyone is going to want complete games that has been thoroughly checked for bugs.

    The Witcher 3 is going to look amazing on PC. Now everyone is going to want proper PC games and not just a fucking shitty port.

    The Witcher 3 will be released with no DRM. Now everyone is going to want PC games without DRM, because it means the games has to be released complete, working and checked without major bugs.

    Don’t Support DRM. Fuck EA and Fuck Ubisoft. The Witcher 3 is coming.

      You’d be interested in this. When you play the SP option in FC4 on the console it has a offline and online mode for the campaign.

      But whats irritating is the DLC that they’ve shown is already done and the game is delayed so why make it DLC?

      I love CDprojekt but honestly they making stupid mistakes

        The DLC stil needs to be made. Or still needed to be made since the announcement. I wouldn’t be surprised if the DLC created bugs in the game and the game had to be delayed. Or the reaction on the forum could have lead to a marketing stunt because they getting good press now.

          Either way they had the DLC already in game to have shown it off, To me if those are done include them , the rest can be latter

            Where has the DLC been shown off in game?

            I doubt it was rendered in 3DSmax or maya, It probably was captured in game.

            Even though I’m not complaining they are giving dlc or anything like that, just my 2cents is they’ve already built some of it and with the dlc it means they can easily put it in

            That’s 4 out of 16 DLC’s. Those 4 just looks like outtakes. Shit that didn’t make the finial cut. Armor set is shit. That’s the Yennefer in the game, so alternative Yennefer should look different.

            Anyway. Now that the game has been delayed. I am expecting these DLC to be in the game. I don’t want to download shit when this game comes out.

            This is all that has been shown. Concept art. Doubt the horse armor and armor set is in-game (1st DLC).
