Part 1 of 2 of this DLC. Adds two maps based on a historical battle which in practice is either liked, despised, fun or boring. I personally think all of the above applies. And a few new weapons that are easily forgotten.

The best DLC so far with good maps (debatable) and weapons but doesn't make up for the problems with the base game that are still present.

First Night map added and some bug fixes.

OPERATIONS We’ve received a lot of feedback from gamers regarding matchmaking into Operations servers, and we’ve made some adjustments – the first of many – to help mitigate getting matched to an empty server. With this change, a completed match of Operations will loop back to the same Operation rather than exiting the mode. However, you’ll be on the opposite side of the battlefield. For example, if you started as the French Army in the first Operation, you’ll be on the German side when it loops back after the “End of Operation” screen. By remaining on the same server with other players, instead of returning to the globe screen, we believe this will reduce the occurrence of being matched into an empty server. In the coming updates, we plan to continue to expand this feature to cycle through a complete Operation playlist. PREMIUM FRIENDS We’ve tested Premium Friends twice in the last ...

MAJOR UPDATE: RIBBONS You will now be able to collect Ribbons as you play. There are 20 different Ribbons to collect, and each time you get a Ribbon you also receive a 300XP. The Ribbons are designed to promote good teamplay and playing the objective. If you have suggestions for other Ribbons you’d like us to add, we’re always listening! This is just the beginning. MAJOR UPDATE: ELITE CODICES It is now possible to unlock an Elite Codex for eight of the available primary weapons in the game. All you need to do is get 500 more kills per applicable weapon. Not only will you get a shiny Elite Codex, but you will also be awarded 25,000 bonus XP. Not bad when you’re chasing those new Class Ranks. MAJOR UPDATE: CLASS MAX RANKS The new max Class Rank will now be 50. At every 10 new Class Ranks you’ll receive a Battlepack, ...

Battlefield 1 DUH DUH DUH DUN DAH DAH! The king of multiplayer shooters is back. And instead jumping even further to the future (2143? Perhaps down the line? My personal favorite) they took a step back and instead of “rebooting” WWII genre, they went one step further, WWI. I’ll be completely honest, when the rumors back when started that the next Battlefield game was going to take place in WWI, I instantly thought “that can’t be” because to the modern gamer, WWI was slow, stressful, and a lot of sitting around waiting for a whistle to jump over the top of a trench just to get killed. So I figured, because a year or so before this, they asked the community “Why did you like Bad Company 2?” so I figured like BC2’s starting campaign in WWII, this new game’s story would start out in ...

General: OPERATIONS CHANGES: Going forward we are addressing the balance issues with the Operations game mode. It’s clear that attackers need a boost. To increase the effectiveness of the attacking team, we are increasing the overall tickets for both Operations & Grand Operations. In addition, we are also making it somewhat easier to capture sectors as an attacker by reducing the amount of time it takes to capture a flags in Operations & Grand Operations. We’ve also increased the minimum tickets regained in grand operations to from 30 to 50, as well as increased the amount of tickets regained from killing retreating defenders. This will give more of a fighting chance to capture the next sector after previously capturing a sector while having very few tickets left. 64 player -Increase attacker maximum tickets from 150 to 250 -Increased the amount of tickets regained from killing retreating defenders after capturing a sector ...
