There will be two $10 Battle Passes per season, and they’ll only be purchasable with real money instead of earnable in-game currency

Games as a service is a scam.

"We wanted to make it so players don't have to purchase the whole season pass at once, so we gave them the option to buy them one half at a time. Oh but the price for one half is the same as the whole pass used to be."

Lol I rode the train since the start of season passes and using the currency won in game. Only using $10 once. This season I didn't get it and well next season I def will not be getting it.

Don't get me wrong I did spend more money on 2 seasons because they actually felt "tested" for bugs, but I ain't paying if they haven't earned it.
