Battlefield 1 Rupture Map is Free

Battlefield 1 fans should grab it, Electronic Arts announces Rupture is now available, offering all players access to this map in the military shooter.

They provide details about this as well as plans to release a new mode called Shock Operations in June that will provide all players access to Premium Pass maps.

Today, all players that own Battlefield 1 can jump into Rupture for free, which is a map featured in Battlefield 1 They Shall Not Pass, set during the Second Battle of the Marne and characterized by its poppies growing over rusty wrecks. In addition, the next few months will bring even more free content to all Battlefield 1 players including Soissons in May, also from Battlefield 1 They Shall Not Pass, to tackle one of the biggest tank assaults of World War I.

We’re glad to announce that we’re making more maps from Battlefield 1 They Shall Not Pass available for all owners of Battlefield 1*. Today, you can tackle Rupture – a map taking place during the Second Battle of the Marne, characterized by its poppies growing over rusty wrecks. Coming in May, you’ll get to play on more maps with the hardened veterans of the French army making in a stand in a brutal defense of their homeland.

In June, bit-sized epicness is coming to Battlefield 1 in a new mode, Shock Operations. The mode supports 40 players and sees attackers and defenders battling over sectors like in fan-favorite Operations mode, but with the action focused to one single map - ideal for those that don’t have time for a full Operations match. Shock Operations will be available on five maps: Giant’s Shadow, Prise de Tahure, Lupkow Pass, Zeebrugge, and River Somme. Most of these maps are normally only available to owners of Battlefield 1 Premium Pass or standalone expansion packs. However, base game owners will be able to access them too when playing Shock Operations.

This is the reason I didnt buy premium pass this time round,they did this for BF4.
All DLC eventually became free for everyone.
The game is SH1T anyway.

I like this game. Good visuals, good destruction model which changes the gameplay - I love it.
Why do they ask to purchase premium in addition to base game? Because they can

Game is good, so people will pay, and they did

Bought 2 DLC's but requested refunds each time after 1 day because there are no people playing Operations, impossible to start new game. So from my experience game is good and fun but because of the silly DLC-Premium situation people who own it don't actually play it.

I played BF3 and BF4 exlusively for years. When BF1 came out, it was so similar to the disappointing game play of SW Battlefront, I stopped playing.after a couple of weeks. It sucked when it came out.

Fast-forward to last week... I was tired of playing PUBg and have been in search of a decent shooter since my sad experience with the initial release of BF1. After looking around a bit and not wanting to spend my money on anyone else's crappy shooter, I started playing BF1 again last week and found they improved the game play to a point where it is again the best shooter around, but on the PC I found there are few people playing as wantobe alluded to. Now what???

EA really screwed the pooch with the initial release of BF1.
How do you get people back playing a game years later when the gameplay in the initial release is so poor?

I did the same thing, tried to play on initial release, hated it. Tried again a year later, and its not too bad. Got game and prem pass el cheapo round Christmas time, $30 total.
