Capping off a fairly terrible fortnight of news surrounding Call of Duty developers Infinity Ward comes word this morning that Modern Warfare 2's map pack is one of the most over-priced pieces of downloadable content we've ever seen.

I don't think this is a repost, but apologies if I missed this news in one of the many threads complaining about MW2.

At least it isn't $50 like a The Sims 3 expansion pack.

 

[killerhz]

it has been posted.

don't think it was posted in the new thread but over in the games. anyways, doesn't matter much to me. $15 is not that bad considering i have been playing that more than BC2 due to the server issues that EA is still having.

Ah, of course. I checked the news thread back for a week, but I forgot about the video games section.

Eh, that is something I will probably not buy. There are going to be too many others making maps that you will be able to get for free.

I paid $60 for the game. The rest should be free. Especially with the crap going on with the servers.

I hope it's free for PC, It looks like it will be as it's not set up for DLC on Steam like other games are.

It better be free for PC or else Activision is going to have a lot of PC gamers never buying from them again.

DICE has said all their maps will be free. Lets see if Activision still thinks they are untouchable and tries to further screw PC gamers.

lol. 5 maps, two of which being retoasts, for 15 bucks.

What the hell does Activision take us for, tools?

It won't be free for pc unless someone sponsors it like Intel did for WaW. I don't see that happening. Enjoy a split community.

Not worth it, all the issues of BC2 are worth not playing or paying for MW2.

DICE did not say all their maps would be free. They said some maps would be free for VIP users.

Honestly, don't care. I like MW and the extra maps, but 15 dollars for some maps...uhh they just want to rape our wallets.

Didn't buy the game before, now I definitely won't ever be buying it.

Same Viva La Resistance!

 

[pcnuttie]

LOL i won't even need to get the dlc at all. Cuz i uninstalled the game, hated it with a passion cuz it's filled with no good cheaters. BFBC 2 ftw!

 

[scohen158]

Looks forward to adding some new maps to the game for variety. Downside I will have to buy 2 but its worth it overall. Now if only I could get my 50 back for BFBC2 I would be ahead 20 bucks...

well people DID buy MW2.

Hopefully with the PC map pack comes a new patch for the consistency of hackers that still remains. I am 6th prestige with about 10 days play time in. 33000 kills and around 19000 deaths. But nothing pisses me off more than the hackers in game. I can't go one sitting without seeing it once. I am still waiting to buy BFBC2.

Worth it how? I bet you these have been done since launch and they've just waited until now to release them. In another couple months, some more will come out. Your $60 game of garbage just became a $90 game of even more garbage. GG Activision.

The hackers will simply get around any new patch, etc.

Jeez $15 for maps? and to think Valve releases games at almost the same price. They have plenty of suckers who will pay for this.
