will warzone firefight be free?

I recently heard there will be a firefight mode in warzone and that’s great. But are we gonna have to pay for it? The free updates are supposed to stop in june, doesn’t that mean firefight will come in a dlc? I hope not.

I think it’s tentatively scheduled for the June update. So it should cost nothing, but your self-respect.

It’s going to cost thousands of Spartans lives when they see promethean Knights holding the River of Light.

It was never said that the updates will stop in June. And if players keep paying for req packs, I doubt we’ll pay for the next updates.

From what I gather from the teasers so far being based on default maps I’d say it’s probably free but since the date is unknown then if it ends up after June then it could end up as paid dlc.

The goal is to have all of this free,

It will be free and the free DLC isn’t going to stop after June. Frankie confirmed that the whole “up to June 2016” thing is a fiscal year thing.

As long as players keep buying REQ packs to fund these DLCs, they’ll be free.

it will be free, because 343 will make all the money they will ever need from the reqs people will buy for firefight.

Are you sure? I swear I saw that somewhere. If players keep paying for reqs then 343 will keep -Yoinking!- us in the -Yoink-…

ok so they’re giving us content that should already be in the game, but only if we pay them more money in a microtransaction systen that should not be in the game… Oh 343…

As soon as I read “From what I gather” and I thought you were about to make a Destiny reference. Thanks for not doing that lol

Free updates are supposed to stop in June? Where’d you hear that?

That was the claim from the beginning. 343 stated that updates would be monthly and free through June 2016. Some people have claimed there would be updates after that, but I haven’t seen any confirmation yet.

Frankie said the whole “Up to June 2016” text was a “boring accounting rule”.

Q: It’s cool that they’re doing free DLC maps, but why does it say “for the first year” I haven’t been following the game closely, due to mostly a media blackout, but did we know this already?

A: Literally a boring accounting rule. FIscal year.
