And another to confiscate the phone of the soldier three rows ahead of you, who thinks cupping his phone in his hand renders it invisible but somehow doesn't realise he's set his screen to be brighter than the sun so he's lighting up the whole damn LVT. A concierge to set your phone to silent for you. Chewing gum that doesn't crinkle when you unwrap it, perhaps. Right so, you're looking at US and Japanese armies, weapons including the pingtastic M1 Garand and a katana, new tanks and planes and boats, new Reinforcement abilities (and some old ones), and other things useful in a new theatre of war.

Wake Island will also return, an absolutely legendary map in the series from all the way back in Battlefield 1942. Squads will have to quickly move between islands and secure control points using boats, amphibious tanks and aircraft. Pacific Storm (inspired by Battlefield 4’s Paracel Storm) is a map with a set of islands, where a major storm could roll in at any moment and turn the tide of battle. Boats, aircraft and tanks will all be present in this huge map.
Iwo Jima will begin with beachlanding mayhem as both teams clash across vast black beaches and tunnels in the island’s large mountain. Recommend reading in order so you can enjoy some of the reoccurring.
