I wonder if we're going to get an old snow covered base map? BO really didn't have enough of those.

EDIT: They heard me! Berlin Wall is an old snow covered looking base. Holy ***. I like the game but damn, this is lazy design.

If rejuvenating a game that I'm already sick of is "killing" it, then what would you consider a benefit?

So is Discovery.

It's because a lot of the campaign takes place in snowy areas.

Free content? Actually do something for the community instead of 100% profit for once?

Oh wait, Bobby Kotick.

There have been about 5 patches now for the game and it's only about two months old. I'd say making the game overall more fun to play, for free, is a pretty good thing to do, considering there are so many games that are stuck with the problems they already had. (Looking at you TF2)

5 patches adding what content? Or bug fixes?

DLC should be free, another reason I won't be buying DAII, another game that has DLC right out of the box.

No problem with DLC but it shouldn't be more than 1$ per map really (Not that 15$ would hurt most people). I guess I can't blame them because millions of people will buy the DLC and they are making a metric ton of profit for just a little work.

People are getting more sick of it. Yearly remakes of CoD with quarterly DLC.

For almost everyone else, new content is more fun than old content.

DLC can be a good thing when used sparsely. Good example of well implemented DLC: Oblivion.

Good example of badly implemented DLC: Dragon Age II

Good example of what the *** are you doing paying for DLC 4 times a year: CoD

And yes, New content is fun and it's even better when its free or not cut for a game to essentially milk an extra $15 out of customers.

That's fine, the Campaign has those and can keep them. It's a separate gametype. Having 5 maps with the exact same decor is frustratingly lazy, especially when the Campaign mode you referred to had so many other types of backdrops to choose from.

Some friends of mine and I were making this joke when we first heard about the DLC maps coming out. I'm not saying the game is bad or anything, it's just makes it much more dull, looking at the same thing over and over, especially when you're paying extra money for this "new" content that looks just like the old. Hell, at least in Abyssea they changed the color of the skyline. BO didn't even do that. A snowy map at night time would've been more interesting, and easy to do.

Neither would I. People eat Activision's ***without saying a word.

It'll be a good day for gaming when Bobby Kotick dies.

if they only gave us the single-player campaign and made us buy DLC for the multiplayer i bet people would still do it

Castlevania HD does this, but it's not so bad. Each piece of DLC is pretty cheap, equivalent to maybe $1-$5. But, the upside is it's new content right way; new characters, maps, items, music, etc. It's all individual, so you can pick and choose and not break your wallet.

An example of good DLC. It gets extra points for being in a single player game too, so you don't need it to keep up.

The only problem I can see here is that you don't understand that Treyarch (And every other video game maker) is a company. They only exist because they want to make money. They don't go around handing out free copies of the game to anyone that says they want to play it, and they don't put in weeks of effort into DLC to give it away for free.

If PS3 has proved anything, it's that you get better services for paying money. That's why PS3's internet sucks and Xbox Live is so much better.

well for CoD they'd probably keep it at around $15 just to rake in more money, and there would be lots of people who bought it

and i mean per DLC the same amount of maps they have now

Then why can companies offer new maps, weapons, game modes and other things for free? Look at L4D and L4D2. CSS too.

i agree with the fact that Xbox Live is much better

i mean no ***it's better you need to pay for it

The quality from a £15 DLC isn't exactly high either. 5 maps aren't exactly a huge deal.

£1 per map I could understand but £15 is stupid.

Because that's Valve. The gaming equivalent of Apple. They get their fans by being nice, not necessarily putting out good products.

Not to say that Half Life 2 or Portal weren't good, but for HL2, you still had to pay for the extra episodes, and for Portal, it was remade for consoles with a few new maps that you had to still pay extra for.

Point still applies. Good content costs money.
