EA has released the reasons why you'll want to opt for their "premium" option of Battlefield 1, and the list of items are definitely enticing, to say the least. Over the course of the game, the premium pass will provide the player with the following...

• 16 multiplayer maps
• 20 weapons
• 14 unique dog tags
• 14 weapon skins
• Ability to play as France and Russia

Each "battle pack" will be released starting a month after the game's release in November. It definitely seems worth the price considering the amount of content they're going to be throwing at you, but I can't help but think they're twisting your arm to get it. Having 20 weapons exclusive to "premium" players will undoubtedly bring balance issues and complaints from the community...so why not just make the game more expensive and give it to everyone?
