It was only a matter of time and so we have it. EA has announced the season pass that will come in at £40/$50 and contain 4 expansion packs which will be announced later.

It's bad enough it has no SP campaign, the player count has been reduced and they have a rip off delux edition, but now this. 

 

I don't mind season passes as long as you get value from them. The best example I can think of is Drive Club where the amount of free cars, tournaments, trophies and vinyls at £20 gave us more than 100% extra content. 

 

I'm not saying every game should do this, but the level of transparency of exactly what we will get, when and the cost of it all was consumer friendly. Here we have another season pass on half a game that comes in almost at the full cost of the game with zero details. 

 

How does that make you feel? Will it change your decision to buy the game? 

If you paid for it, it wasn't free. But I suppose people will know what you mean.

If I ever buy this game it will be the "GOTY" (though I doubt it will actually win any GOTYs not even a best game based on Star Wars GOTY because that would go to the leggo game) all DLC included version that comes out this time next year, for 3/4 of the original launch price. 

It might be said that people who buy the game this year AND buy the season pass are fools and they deserve to be parted from their money. Of course I would never actually say that, but some people might.
