i feel that the free dlcs like the community operations and night operations in bf4 arent so popular as they were not well advertised and had to be got through origin ( a fact that many newer players dont realize) , making (imo) one of the best maps to play on, less populated . If battlefield 1 is going to have any free dlc i hope there will be a system where the dlcs are treated as updates and have to be installed to continue online play .

Yes they should.

Making a new map stay on its own in the rotation was the dumbest thing they ever did. Why bother with the new map at all.

i feel like they should just include it in the rotation, kick player for not downloading it. why should good players be punished by lazy players

i wish dlc was included in map rotations but it rarely is

Agreed. Maybe even add a vote next map option in between rounds.

They bought out a couple of rotations in BF4 (one was large scale battles) ehich was a mix of dlc and vanilla maps. No reason why they couldnt do that again.

as an australian i never got to play many of the DLC maps in all of its glory, only hardcore had those maps and if they weren’t vanilla it was half capacity or empty. never saw those playlists either

im not sure about voting but something different would be an improvement
