DICE’s level artist Daniel Cambrand has taken to Twitter to react on Angry Joe’s recent Battlefront Season Pass rant video. According to Cambrand, Joe's rant video is highly unimpressive and wrong on many facts.
Angry Joe posted his latest ‘rant’ video a few days ago, and is rather angry about Battlefront’s season pass plans. Joe accuses EA DICE for not including all of the content at launch, and saving it to release on a later date to increase revenue. According to Joe, EA should have chosen to release Battlefront at a later date with all of the season pass content included.
Joe Vargas is known for being rather 'expressional', and while some gamers tend to love his videos, Cambrand states that Angry Joe is wrong on so many aspects. According to the DICE designer, Joe is outright guessing and rants like he knows. Cambrand adds that he thinks it's, in fact, tiring and cliché.

@SebastianBraune Thats why I usually dont bother with those ppl; they love to make headlines & dont care if they bend the truth to get heard

@AngryJoeShow @DavidotsuguA I represent me and no one else and I do feel its bothersome when people think we are witholding content from ppl

@BossKingKakuzan @AngryJoeShow @DavidotsuguA What content would that be? Nothing has been cut off and "saved" mate

Cambrand continues by commenting that DICE has been working really hard to get as much content in there as possible, but getting all of the season pass content in would mean the game would get delayed by a ton.

@AngryJoeShow @DavidotsuguA "It should have been released with the main game" would mean that we would have to delay the game by a ton.

Like all games lately, Battlefront will have a deluxe edition as well. This deluxe edition includes additional content which isn't available in the standard edition. This content includes 5 in-game items. Cambrand was asked why EA has been advertising this deluxe version with 'extra' content, if nothing has been cut from the game. Cambrand replied that making people aware of upcoming content doesn't reflect anything on its status.

Joe also commented on Twitter, accusing DICE of using the Battlefront name for a simple reboot of the series with limited content.
@AngryJoeShow Some seem to agree with you on that yeah. It is a reboot with the same name. It is new and we try to honor alot of the old.

According to Joe, DICE shouldn't have used the Battlefront title as this comes with expectations.
