Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Package Details Spawn

[Deathfish15]

Only 3 maps for the game at 1/4th the price of the full retail game,....not worth it.


And Xbox360 exclusively only at first? This is where Activision fails by accompanying only 1/3rd of their customers while screwing out the other 2/3rds of them.


Then again, is anyone REALLY surprised about the price or set up of this, considering what Activion did to save some money and steal the IP from it's original creators at the same time?

 

[Skops]

Tell me when there is DLC for Bad Company 2 because I am done with MW2

yeah bc2 will have maps come out around the game time as this but for free

IF you have VIP access. Which pretty much anyone who preordered it/bought it first release day does.

 

[Tdc2182]

I dont care that I am in love with the game, I refuse to pay 15 bucks for the map pack. I will wait till the price drops

 

[hansari]

Go buy Shadow complex instead for the same price people....

 

[L3m0n_L1m3]

I don't like the game anymore, and this is overpriced in my eyes, so no, I won't be feeding the greedy company known as Infinity Ward.

 

[RheynbowDash]

Sweet Jesus. I cannot wait for this. IW could pretty much charge whatever they wanted for this and we'd still buy it.

 

[Xannieros]

$60 for the game, $15 for 5 maps. They're getting greedy. Not gonna buy those maps.. Rather get a new game or a few used games for that price.

 

[hansari]

Well, does this information give anyone out there mapathy [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/99059-Modern-Warfare-Bad-Company-Go-Head-to-Head-With-Map-Packs] or not?

They hike up the price because of its popularity...could you imagine WoW doing something like this?

 

[Therumancer]

I'm not a big shooter fan, but honestly I almost laughed at the price for the amount of content and the name.

I would almost suspect the developers are sitting there going "see, we can even TELL the fans we're milking them like moronic cash bags, and they'll line up lemminglike to give us their money".

Really if anything gets boycotted out there, it probably should be this, because honestly it's kind of insulting.

Like Modern Warfare 2, the most sellingest FPS of all time so far needs "Stimulus" to increase it's already monsterous profits and player base.

 

[fwelord]

no thank you I'll The Passing on around the same date, and cheaper.

 

[Snotnarok]

You're joking, 15 bucks for three new maps and two old maps? I'm not paying 15 bucks for that.
Battlefield Bad Company 2 is putting out DLC, and if you got it new, you get the DLC FREE. And THAT game is 10 dollars cheaper (PC) than MW2.

Screw you activision keep your overpriced maps.

 

[AceDiamond]

And people thought Bethesda was charging crazy amounts for their Fallout 3 DLC...

 

[heyheysg]

Boycotted until after the trial

 

[acosn]

-.-

Waiting to see if they're actually going to charge PC gamers for it.

Certainly wont pay 15 bucks for three maps and two that I more or less "already" own since I paid for COD4.

At any rate first I want them to balance their broken guns.

Oh and those dedicated servers. Since, you know, the non-dedicated ones have nothing but lag.

 

[dragonburner]

Tell me when there is DLC for Bad Company 2 because I am done with MW2

3/18- class upgrades
4/1- 2 new maps

 

[Srkkl]

What a gip, if it was 5 new maps I would understand the 15 dollars but two old ones? Thats retarded, I might have bought it if it was the regular 800 points but I'll just stick with Bad Co. 2 now.

 

[Infinatex]

Everyone is hating on IW for this, but they are just the guys who made the thing. If you want to hate on anyone, hate on the marketing team at Activison.

 

[sneakypenguin]

Ouch ouch, 1200 mp the maps better be steller for me to think about it.

 

[Dirty Apple]

I'm not a Mewtwo player so they could price it at grand and I wouldn't care. What surprises me is their choices for redux maps. Crash I agree with. It's small, punchy, and I always had fun playing it. Overgrown is a ***** of a map though. It's large size combined with open spaces and unobstructed viewlines make it a camper's delight. The only map that could have been a worse choice would be Downpour. They should have re-upped Strike.

 

[Motiv_]

Hah, that's a laugh. I heard the massive hype about MW2, thought about getting it, was put off by the 60$ price tag even on PC, so I decided to wait until a sale. Glad I did. There's no way in hell I'm going to pay a cent to those morons. First you tack 10 extra bucks onto a massively overhyped game, release it in a buggy and almost unworkable state, with no dedicated servers, no kick options, and terrible server ping, THEN release DLC for just the 360 version? Fuck you Activision. Valve, Relic, and THQ are the only ones enjoying my money now.
