Visceral Games reveals newest details on EA's Battlefield Hardline 1st DLC called Criminal Activity where the game' first expansion pack brings in massive content items such as night maps, weapons, and vehicles similar with Battlefield's past offerings.
The game's Producer Zach Mumbach shared this latest information on the latest episode of Don't Revive Me Bro podcast.The Battlefield Hardline first DLC pack includes 4 new maps, two of which take place at night, awesome vehicles, powerful weapons and other items that will soon be announced. However, those who are still holding out for airplanes will likely be disappointed, IGN wrote.
"No planes," Mumbach confirmed. The producer explained further that the maps they've created were made to be close-quarters adding that planes don't quite work with what Battlefield Hardline is trying to do.
"I just don't see how to work it into the fiction of what we're doing," he said. "I'm not necessarily anti-planes, but when I play [Battlefield 4], it just feels like they're fighting each other."
The maps feature an urban setting split between California and Florida and according to Mumbach, both Premium and Non-premium players will have access to new content.
