I know many people would want DLC to be free, but let’s talk realistically here.
A big issue in my eyes with Battlefield 3 was the lack of DLC content in non-DLC maps, most notably vehicles. Well if you hear me out, I think this would be a good suggestion for BF4 an DLC content.
I feel they should put at least 1 DLC vehicle in older maps once the DLC drops. Allow those who did not purchase the DLC to play on the same server, but not be able to enter the vehicles.
Let me tell you why I feel this is a good idea:
- Solves the problem of no DLC in vanilla maps.
- Allows those who did not buy DLC and those who did buy DLC to play together on the same server.
- Effectively stops the ‘chopping up’ of the player base, which will result in less 10+ player drop from a server.
- Understandable from a marketing standpoint, where people will want what they can’t have.
- Only allow 1-2 different DLC vehicles types in each map so those who did not buy DLC will still be able to drive some vehicles.
I’d love to hear /r/Battlefield4 's opinion on this, so let me know what you think would be the best course of action!
