I really like the look of the Pacific, but there is something making me a bit concerned.  
In the chapter description with all the info I see this.

“With Chapter 5, we’ve sweetened the pot for the Chapter Rewards even further. The Jungle Carbine primary weapon, the Epic Nighthawk outfit, and the Model 27 sidearm are some of the many rewards you can reap when getting experienced in the Pacific.”

Do I read this correctly that you now need to grind the stupid chapter XP for some of the primary weaponds and sidearms?! Im not talking about weekly challenges here.  
For me this mean more stress as I cant play games 4-5 hours a day, aaaaaand since you can buy your way through the chapter rewards with real money, does that mean that you now can buy your way to unlocking not only cosmetics but also weaponds? Is this the start of gameplay microtransactions in BFV?

Is this not “pay-to-win” or “timesavers” as developers might call it?  
Some clarifycation on this please @Braddock512

Sorry for any bad English.

Nice trailer but you should fix the base game before adding extras into an already dodgy game.

Flametrooper in BF1 isn’t that great. Cool thing to be but can’t say it’s the most effective kit on the Battlefield. Tank Hunters and Trench Raider kits are another story.

Sounds like we get the 5.0 patch before next week Thursday. So it’s probably in that.
