Battlefield Hardline will have seven game modes and nine maps at launch.
No less than Visceral General Manager Steve Papoutsis confirmed these in an interview. Visceral has already confirmed all but one of these modes. These are all the modes we know for now:
· Hotwire
· Rescue
· Blood Money
· Heist
· Conquest
· Team Deathmatch
Of course, Visceral can add even more modes in the future. However, Papoutsis also confirmed that Rush mode will not be returning to Battlefield Hardline at all, so do not hold out hope for that.
Here is a partial list of weapons that have been seen in previews and gameplay demos:
· M16A3
· AKM
· G36C
· M4
· FMG-9
· Vector K10
· UMP-45
· AKS-47U
· P90
· UZI
· MP5K
· MAC-10
· M240B
· MG36
· SR-25 ECC
· L96A1
· R700LTR
· PTR-91
· Shorty
· Sawed-Off
· 870 MCS
· SAIGA .308
· G18
· M93R
· M1911
· RS357
· .38 SNUB
· 92FS
· HK45C
· TEC-9
Visceral may also be trying asymmetrical unlocks, with a different weapon unlock order for each album. It may also get class balancing similar to that found in Battlefield: Bad Company 2.
