    DICE is thanking fans for sticking with Battlefield 4 through its launch mess with an entire month devoted to players. Starting on February 1, DICE will dole out special community missions and initiate daily giveaways throughout the month. Every day players log into Battlefield 4 in February, they'll receive a Bronze (weekdays) or Silver (weekends) level Battlepack, which provide random XP boosts and camouflage skins. Two shortcut bundles, which immediately unlock all grenade types and handguns, will also be made available during February at no cost; however, Battlefield 4 Premium owners will get two additional shortcut bundles that unlock all DMRs and shotguns. Finally, at some point in February, DICE will turn on the XP faucet through a double XP weekend event. DICE says it will continue to work toward improving the Battlefield 4 experience. The developer is actively working to improve the game's netcode, which will hopefully result in a more fluid online experience, and promises to share more details on that at a later time.

    Hi-Rez Studios is throwing a bone to Global Agenda veterans who raised concerns about the limitations on the title's Agenda Points. Agenda Points are Global Agenda's item shop currency and were introduced with the Free Agent patch as a way for players to spend real-life money on optional character items. Agenda Points will now be distributed for free to active Booster supporters on a daily basis (to the tune of five AP per day plus an additional five for each level 50 character on an account). Theoretically players could walk away with 1,350 AP per month if they have eight max-level toons. In other Global Agenda news, Hi-Rez's month-long player appreciation promotion is in full swing, and each successive week brings a 50% AP discount on all store items for one of the game's classes.
