Bad Company 2 Gets DLC From Dr. Pepper

[Sir Kemper]

Free Gamerscore for Dr.Pepper?

So it's essntialy saying "Drink our Godaful soda and have something you like!"

 

[Caiti Voltaire]

Though it really is hilarious how people blame these corporations for the shitty laws in their own shitty countries that force them to pay for DLC thats free in the U.S.

... That is perhaps the most hilariously uninformed generalised assumption I have ever seen. I'm sure every other country in the goddamend world has such ridiculous laws.

 

[Aurora219]

Feh. Standardisation please!

 

[Composer]

to bad dr pepper tastes nasty

 

[teutonicman]

Not that I play BC 2 but the fact that the promotion is not global or at the very least North American is pretty retarded.

 

[TheEarlOfGrey]

Does it still count as free with the VIP codes?

Do you see me complaining about it? = The difference.

It just saddens me that the greatest beverage of all time has to partner up with my most hated game publisher of all time.

Wit, barqs is teaming up ea?(yeah, i like barqs)
OT: Hmm, seems like a good thingmy bro loves DR Pepper.

 

[dbmountain]

Any Americans wanna share some codes with a nice friendly Canadian? >.>

Have you ever heard of a corporation called Activision?

Activision finished second place in the "Great Douchebag Race of 2007-2008". So yes, I still hate EA more.

Yeah, but in the "Great Douchebag Race of 2009-2010" they're making great progress by tearing one of their dev studios apart at the seams in the interest of seeing what exactly is IN the golden goose. The answer? Lots and lots of lawsuits.

For the Runner Up we have Ubisoft releasing titles that literally cannot run and declaring it a victory over piracy.

Starke has a point. Activision's douchbaggery lost them key people in Infinity Ward. EA didn't take away anyone's bonuses over bullshit.

Hopefully the codes will be re-usable, or else some form of "Give me a couple of bucks, I get a soda and send you a code" sort of thing's will happen, As long as its cheaper than the DLC will be on the market place.... wait, you still have to pay for the Dr. Pepper, free DLC my arse.

I hate Dr Pepper. I don't hate on Bad Company 2 for this but a bit desperate and greedy?

Don't have Bad Company 2 anyway.

i dont see how it's greedy, it's more of a "you scratch my back and i'll scratch yours" kind of thing. Dr. Pepper helps out EA by funding the production of some of their games, and EA helps Dr. Pepper by doing something to help increase their sales

FYI, I said a bit. A bit is a tiny amount.

Their amount of greed is the amount of fat you want in your food. Its there, but not as much so you notice.

Its also unfair to people who don't even like Dr.Pepper. But you could just buy it anyway.

 

[Mr. Mike]

Hey, if they can get people to buy this, good for them. Waste of money in my eyes, and I doubt they'd extend the promotion to Australia.

 

[LtFerret]

Oh EA, you were doing so good restoring your image untill all this DLC crap.

 

[Soxafloppin]

I would, but i hate Dr. Pepper.

 

[ultimateownage]

Well fuck you dr.pepper and your American only dlc. The one time there is something interesting on bottles.

Hell, EA gave them cookies, milk, and their own new firm. Time will tell if the third one is a blessing or a curse, but, I'm leaning towards the former.
