EA releasing free DLC for Battlefield: Bad Company

On August 7, Battlefield: Bad Company players worldwide will get to experience the intense rush as they tackle online play in a whole new way with Conquest mode. The new mode that will be released as a free download for both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Made famous by Battlefield 1942, Conquest mode pits players against each other in a fast paced battle to eliminate the opposing team's tickets. Players deplete their opponent's tickets by one point per kill and can cause their opponent's tickets to spiral downwards by capturing control points. Four maps that are currently available for online play in Gold Rush mode will be available to conquer with Conquest mode.

    Only 4 maps? And only 4 maps that are revisited? I wouldent mind 2-3 NEW maps free of charge.

    But hey...it's EA.  Adding weather effects and lighting.. wooa!, hard work, open up the map, add sprites for rain and change the lightning, close and save.. export map... done.

    Tough job.

    They better have included some damn bugfixes!!!! I'm just using Skype with some friends while playing, because or our mics freeze when we luckily join the same squad / or for once the squad invite system works (this never happens though) - instead of not being able to join anyone's.

    ya they have been saying this for awhile on the online menu ticker. it will be fun to have a new mode as gold rush is getting repetitive.  @bent_toe. hey its FREE man. do you have anything to give to ea for FREE. lol

    @joeymetalgear7- it must be something on your end. I've only experienced problems when the game 1st came out.  since they shut down most of the demo servers things are generaly good. a lot better than cod4.

    @prodygee- what do you mean the invites never work??? do you know what your doing? they work for me and my friends 100% of the time. maybe someone is just getting tired of waiting for someone to show up and starting the game too early.

    what they NEED to do is patch the damn game and fix all of the bugs that are in it. or how about 2.40+ support........    Im tired of trying to connect to my friends just not to hear them or them not hear me after 3 minutes of game play....     DICE needs to get on the ball.

     The mode itself is cool but the best thing for me, seems to be the fact that they've removed the ugly grain filter! If true, I'm gonna finally play the game again after abandoning it after the first day!

    Is this game better than cod4? The only thing that look's good to me is the fact that you can destroy praticuly everything, is this the same for the multi-player online?

    I never would have thought that I would read the words "ea" & "free" in the same sentence. I don't know. Judging from the comments on repetitive maps, it seems more like an unlock rather than something entirely new.

    1942 was a great game. I can't wait to get conquest on the bad company.  @ 13 It is alot better than COD, you can drive vehicles.

    This game hasn't appeal to anyone that much, the game was a worst hit.
