    Unlike the previous packs which just added more modes to squad rush and SQDM, this adds more conquest and rush variants, such as conquest Nelson Bay, and conquest Port Valdez.

    As always no new real maps.

    Since when has marketing ever been restrained by truth or logic?

    I pity the poor console saps who have to pay for this..

    basically we enabled conquest and rush on 2 maps we couldn't bother to do in the first place so we could screw ye out of more money..

    It's free for the console players too. And there's also Atacama Rush in there.

    We are never getting a real map pack, confirmed by the Dice Community Manager. Paid expansion pack is how we get new maps.

    Very interesting post though and i commend the guy on the quick response and being mostly honest :p (check out the G3 answer, laughable).

    Dice community manager answers a lot of pertinent questions on the official forum

    It does not need to download since the maps are already in the game but they get unlocked over time

    Bah! You got my hopes up - thought there would be 2 new conquest options.

    Atacama Desert [rush] along with Port Valdez [conquest] seem to be the only new variants.

    Sorry, I was a little early with that. Nelson Bay conquest, and White Pass rush are the next pack. Pics here though

    I'm hoping to get a go on this tonight. I play Atacama conquest all the time, but most of the clan are into Rush (which I'm fairly impartial to). Atacama rush, best of both?
