Cool content like weapon skins awaits you in the Battlepacks for Battlefield 1.
Crates containing rewards for players exist in various video games. In Battlefield 1, these crates are called Battlepacks and have cool content for players. These crates were already known from Battlefield 4, but they have been redesigned for the new installment in the Battlefield series. In these crates, you will find weapon skins or possibly even an XP bonus.
How to get Battlepacks?
To get a Battlepack, you don’t need to know any special tricks. You have a chance of receiving a Battlepack when you participate in a battle. Some players receive a Battlepack at the end of the match that they can open in the menu. The only requirement is that you participated in the entire match. For example, if you only joined the game 30 seconds before the end, you will not receive a Battlepack.
Improved or Superior Battlepacks can be purchased with scrap. Scrap is an in-game currency that we will discuss in more detail later in the article.
Battlefield 1 – Battlepack Contents
Each Battlepack in Battlefield 1 contains one guaranteed weapon skin! These skins are available in the rarity levels of Special, Outstanding, and Legendary. If you’re lucky, you might find bonus items like XP boosts or a melee weapon puzzle piece. If you have collected all the puzzle pieces for a melee weapon, you can assemble the puzzle and use the weapon in the game. There is only one type of Battlepack that can contain all types of items. Rare items are not restricted to the higher-tier packs. Improved and Superior Battlepacks guarantee you a weapon skin of a specific rarity.
The contents of Battlepacks are assigned to different pools that rotate weekly. This is called “Versions” in Battlefield 1. When a new version is announced, you can see which skins are in the pool in the game. Before opening a Battlepack, you will also see which skins are available in the current version.
The scrap system in Battlefield 1 allows you to exchange skins or bonus items from Battlepacks for scrap. Scrap is the in-game currency in Battlefield 1 that you can use to purchase additional Battlepacks. It can be worthwhile to exchange skins or bonus items for scrap and save it. If there is no skin in the current Battlepack version that you like, you simply wait for the weekly rotation. If you see a weapon skin in the preview that you like, you can buy a Battlepack with the saved scrap.
