One of the most anticipated DLCs for Battlefield 4 is the "Dragon's Teeth" and it will be released on the 15th of July but the weekend before that, EA and DICE are kicking off the Battlefield 4 "Battlefest" which will be a month-long BF4 event filled with special events, rewards, missions, and raffling off gaming PCs from AMD.  The Battlefest will start on the 12th of July, just three days before the release of the Dragon's Teeth DLC which Premium members will be able to download.

The BF4 Battlefest was announced to give back to the loyal gamers who have stuck it out with the game even if there was widespread disappointment over bugs. And to start the Battlefest month, players will get Double XP Points in the first weekend (12-13 July). They will also have their daily "Battleshots" where players submit screenshots of their Battlefield 4 based on a theme requirement.

Other activities for the Battlefest are the following:

Free Camo Unlocks

Each week we will be releasing a free camo in-game for all players.  This will give you more ways to standout on the battlefield.

Community Missions

Each week we will be hosting a global community challenge to reach a specific goal in-game.  If you reach the goal, everyone who logs in will receive a free gold Battlepack the following week.  The first mission starts on July 15, 2014, where you will have to collectively reach 15 million revives across all platforms, with the mission ending on the eve of July 20, 2014.

Stunt Video Competition

This a month long contest where we are asking you to send us your best stunt video that can only be done in Battlefield 4. Once we receive the submissions, the DICE team will pick the top 12 and then you, the fans, will vote on the top three winners to win a massive prize.  Official announcement to come; official rules can be found here.

Sounds fun, but will those be enough to bring back the gamers who have abandoned the game after all those issues?

I have actually stopped playing Battlefield 4 since early this year and I am not sure if these perks will make me comeback to play again. Perhaps I'll try if I find time this weekend since it's also a weekend of airsoft skirmishes given that it's the Summer Season.

If you think you want to give it a try again to play Battlefield 4, better update your installed game if you haven't played it for some time now, definitely lots of software fixes must be waiting for you. Better do it a day before Battlefest starts so you won't be downloading whilst others are racking up their XPs and stats.
