MP DLC (maps, modes and characters) will be free by the sounds of it. Unexpected move from EA, but very welcome.

It looks beautiful

looks good happy with the point system encourages objective game play instead of running and camping a crappy icon on the floor!
Roger Roger!
Looks epic 
Definitely got the sense/feel of a mix between the current game and BF 1. Just hope there is proper squad system....
TBH, if there is a good deal i.e. £25 or so, I'll probably pre-order....
Has the beta date been announced yet? Hopefully I'll get into the closed beta since I got into them for SWBF and BF 1 etc.
Hopefully it won't be bf 1 retarded points though where everyone just zergs on to points and doesn't bother defending etc.
Not surprising at all given:
- DLC for current game is practically dead
- the massive up roar on release for the current one i.e. only 4 maps

Not bad looking, no mention of squads and I couldn't see any sign of it either :/ Hopefully just not implemented yet....
Very concerned about the micro transaction part though, hopefully the good/OP cards won't be tied behind a pay wall but then again, no DLC etc. is nice. Also, looks like the wall hack stuff etc. will remain

The squads appear to be based on who spawns at the same time as you. You are assigned to what looks like constantly changing squads with the people spawning at the same time and then a different "squad" at the next re-spawn.
Urgh, true enough, hopefully there will be a way to stay with a squad throughout the match rather than it being random like that, that's even worse than the last/current system!
Hopefully. I'm not holding my breath though. They still seem to have their sights firmly set on casual gamers. It looks better than the last one but that's not saying much. Still no 64 player maps is inexcusable though.
Yeah it certainly doesn't look like we are going to get a battlefield experience the more I see of the game
Given how successful bf 1 (iirc more than battlefront) was, I really was hoping for mostly a reskin of it.Oh well, will still probably get it but definitely no pre-order now unless there is a cheap key floating around....
Good to hear whats being said here, bigger skill gap etc.
Also, No DLC:

Also heard that first person view will offer more advantages over 3rd person view i.e. more accurate, recoil wise etc.
Don't know why they didn't just remove 3rd person or first person view altogether though.
Yup great news that but there will be micro transactions for the star cards i.e. wall hack stuff etc.

"All post release content will be free"but EA will do something like this.
"Pre order the new FREE DLC for £14.99 and get a premium upgrade, receive 15 loot boxes!"
Which will be akin to paying for a season pass, for your free season pass.

I hadn't heard that yet. That's pretty good if they've done that. Hopefully the same is true for the flying and we've got a workable first person view when flying this time that isn't just a skin that blocks 60% of the view with no advantage at all.
