Chasethebase Reporter Posted May 6, 2010 Reporter Share Posted May 6, 2010 I can't believe people are buying this DLC. Especially PC gamers. :/ I bought it because I had spare money lying around and I enjoy the game. I doubt I'll buy another CoD game though but I'm really enjoying MW2 so I thought why not. And this will tide me over until the Engineer update for TF2. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken-royal Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 ? Why, because we like the maps and the game? Because it's essentially 3 new maps for 1/4 of the whole game's price (going on $15/$60, worse for UK gamers at ?11/?35). It's clearly priced to see what they can get away with, and it seems to have worked out well for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w33zy Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 why are there so many people hating this game? I Bought BC2 for the PC. And bought MW2 For the ps3. altough i prefer keyboard + mouse cause i am playing FPS Games 7/8 years on my computer. but i really enjoy playing MW2 on my ps3. and the game i really like it to. never bought the game for pc cause friends told me there are a lot of cheaters on the pc. is this true? and if i could choose between MW2 or BC2, well ... i cant LOL :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sn00pie Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I really want to buy the map pack. 5 maps for $15 bucks isn't that bad, that's like $3 bucks a map... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackhearted Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Soo... For the 2nd time in a month, they're doing another free weekend on steam. Are they really that desperate to try to get more people to buy this overpriced and below average game? ? Why, because we like the maps and the game? Because what is essentially a bonus pack of a merely few maps and nothing else should be free. Not stupidly priced like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second Modern Warfare 2 Map Pack Coming This Fall Activision has given a release window for the next map pack for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. COO Thomas Tippl confirmed on today's financial call that the pack will be released in the back half of calendar 2010. Tippl provided no additional details, only adding that the pack is currently in development by Infinity Ward. Earlier in the call, Activision CEO Bobby Kotick stated the 'Call of Duty' series has sold 17 million map packs total on Xbox Live. He also said there has been over 1.75 billion hours worth of Call of Duty multiplayer games on Xbox Live. The first map pack for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 saw sales reach over one million downloads on Xbox Live in the first 24 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot B. Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I just bought the Stimulus Package, and now there are two new 'Game Modes'. Is this the only play to play these maps? If they're not added to the playlist of the normal gametypes, I'll be very annoyed! I like to choose my gametype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasethebase Reporter Posted May 13, 2010 Reporter Share Posted May 13, 2010 I just bought the Stimulus Package, and now there are two new 'Game Modes'. Is this the only play to play these maps? If they're not added to the playlist of the normal gametypes, I'll be very annoyed! I like to choose my gametype. At the moment there's only the Stimulus and Stimulus Hardcore playlists, which add a mix of gametypes on just those maps. This is so that those without can play as normal, it's the same system Bungie used with Halo 3. Over time these maps will get included into more playlists, leaving the most popular ones until last (Read: Team Deathmatch). This is so it's fair on those who haven't purchased it yet and they can still play as normal. I personally don't mind, I'll play the maps when I want to, and when I don't I go back to the regular gametypes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedon Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 FYI, the stimulus maps are in the regular playlists now, in addition to having their own playlists. Has been for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume it depends on who you're matched up with. If just one player don't have the map pack, it doesn't get selected. Simple. I love Crash, great for earning FMJ kills towards Extended Mags and Mastery :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't used the stimulus section since they changed it. I get rotated in all the maps now in all the game types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePokedPenguin Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 New Barebones Pro Playlists , removes killstreak rewards http://fourzerotwo.com/post/723560718/barebonespro No charge for it either :whistle: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The killstreak rewards are undoubtedly the worst part of the game in my humble opinion, and while their exclusion certainly doesn't fix all that ails MW2, it's a big step in the right direction. That said, I wonder how many other people are going to be interested in these playlists. And even if I do end up enjoying it, I'm sure as hell not going to drop $30 to get all of the new maps.

I have been playing that playlist more then the other ones so far today. Now about a playlist that does not have commando and shotgun/machine pistols as secondary.

Personally, I would love a playlist that removes all killstreak rewards, heartbeat monitors, thermal scopes, dual wielding weapons, and any perks that can turn people into knife ninjas. That said, at least they're taking some baby steps :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trag3dy Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 You can pre order the resurgence map pack on Steam now and save a whopping 10%. That's $1.51. Such a deal. But hey.. you can save money now on something you should be getting for free anyways. :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedon Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I raved this game hard for many months, and I have 260+ hours in it, prestiged twice and have both map packs. However, I have moved on to Battlefield Bad Company 2 now, and MW2 is collecting dust. Probably won't play it again anytime soon, and will move on to Black Ops.

Black Ops will fail, simply because Teryach is making it. The new map pack has really gotten me into the game again. They're way better than the first map pack.
