Today EA DICE announced the first piece of DLC for Battlefield: Bad Company. Arriving this Thursday, Aug 7, on both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, a new game mode is being introduced. Dubbed Conquest, the new game mode will be familiar to anyone who has played the other Battlefield games.
For those of you who aren’t so well versed in your Battlefield history; Conquest has “two opposing teams against each other in a race to deplete the other team’s tickets. Killing an enemy takes off one ticket, while capturing and holding certain objectives can be a major drain on the opposition.”
Sounds like a good deal to me. Free DLC is always welcome in the Yue home.
