lol its like thet want us to know they did do th gknova stuff

too bad the dlc for black ops will not be free . acutally anything is better then mw2 map packs for 15 bucks. i mean hell, the zombie maps themselves in W@W i would pay 10 bucks for.

there is no confirmation bout payable dlc, they have not even touched that topic yet they are too busy putting the final touches on the game. when they get to the DLC then they will discuss it. I have a good feeling bout this, they havent let us down so far an I dont think they would be crazy to charge dlc like IW did for MW2.

i thought activions set the prices for dlc

Yeah but Activision is fighting against resale too. I expect something maybe like Battlefields VIP.

They said that they are going to support it so much so that nobody is going to want to turn the game in, so that they wont have to do something battlefield-ish.

Well the advert from Acti to Gamesstop for the hardened edition put a value of $15 on those four maps. I think 1200ms price point or higher is here to stay. Lets hope this time around we get new content and not older maps, though I also have a bad feeling about this as I have seen the forums seeded with "which old map from WaW should return" topics.

If you really want to play an old map, just pop the old disc in, simple. If Treyarch really want to release older maps then do it as seperate DLC. Then you can really get a feel for if people actually want to spend money on something they allready own "TWICE".

That is quite an admirable statemant to make...yet we have Dan Suaez?? (spelling) saying they have not even looked at DLC yet...which is it?

Either they have an aggresive post launch DLC campaing to push out, which would be indicitive of the support statemant...or they dont have any plans yet, which does not pose well for the statemant of support.

I think the most damaging thing at Activision is its PR department. People respect the truth far more than anything else you could spoon feed them..

If they have battlefields VIP code like thing. That would be great for sales and make people happy, if not giving up free DLC it should be discounted because we got the game new. compared to people who will buy it used for cheaper.

Microsoft have a policy that restricts free updates. Devs get one free update and it is size limited I think at 4mb. This could also be a reason we failed to get timely fixes for MW2, I dont see why it will be any differant with BO.

MS shelled a lot of money out to Acti for exclusivity, you dont think they did that from the goodness of their hearts do you?

The only problem with battlefield "DLC" is that its basically the same maps you had before, but now you can play them in different game modes. That wouldn't work for cod because you can play any map in any gamemode (With exception of some FFA, and some Ground War maps.)

Regardless, good find dfinest. Your first +1 on this topic is from me :D

[DEMON xMYQx]

I think it's good that they're doing this, but I hope they do a bit better than what Battlefield Bad Company 2 did. They just took old maps and made them playable on Rush... Aside from that, if they live up to what they're saying, we could see a lot of bonus content and co-op content.

[thek0olaidman]

well i was happy to pay 10 bucks a map pack. no problem there. but 15 bucks with no zombies in mw2 and only 3 new maps.. no. especially since Iw decided they wont patch anything. i mean the fuel rock glitch is never going to get patched...........
