  • Battlefield V Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes Update Notes New Content
    Battlefield V Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes Update Notes Hello Battlefield V players, and welcome to our first update in 2019! As part of Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes, we’re kicking off the year with Squad Conquest which is an intense version of Conquest that enables more tactical gameplay between two teams of 16 players on the Arras, Rotterdam, and Hamada maps. Additionally, we’re adding four new weapons which can be unlocked with the Weekly Challenges that will be made available during Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes. We’ve also made several changes and fixes based upon the feedback from the Battlefield community. Note that there’s much more coming with Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes, including the return of Rush, a new Grand Operation, and more. New experiences will be delivered in future updates as the Chapter progresses. See you on the battlefield! /Jaqub Ajmal Producer – Battlefield V (Twitter: @jaqubajmal) New Content New Mode: Squad Conquest Squad Conquest is a tighter and more intense version of Conquest, where two squads per team battle it out over smaller, more tactical layouts of three existing maps: Arras, Hamada, and Rotterdam. These maps all feature 16 players on two teams, three flags, spawning restricted to HQs, and limited access to vehicles. A core belief behind Squad Conquest is a restricted number of variables to allow strategy to be able to exist – you have to be able to predict player behavior and patterns, which is reflected in all three map layouts. Clear lanes and conservative combat areas allow players to predict where enemies are coming from, where they need to defend, and how to subvert enemy movement.

It supplemented, and, in some instances, replaced the MG 34 general-purpose machine gun in all branches of the German Armed Forces, though both weapons were manufactured and used until the end of the war.[2] The MG 42 has a proven record of reliability, durability, simplicity, and ease of operation, but is most notable for its ability to produce a stunning volume of suppressive fire.
