Does anybody else think it's pretty ****e that you can't just buy the new maps and the campaign?
Having already paid for combustible and snowblind,I find it annoying you get them included in this.
 
I've only bought snowblind (luckily was going to get combustable but didnt get round to it). I can certainly understand people who have already bought the map packs being miffed. It doesnt encourage people to buy DLC when this happens.

I dont entirely understand what the options are - is it either 14.99 on disk for all the map packs and single player add on or 1600 MS points to buy it on xbox live? Do we get codes to redeem each map pack over live if we buy it that way? At least we could give away/sell the packs we have then..

After checking it's £14.99 for the disk with the campaign,all the map packs,a poster and some other things too.Or 1600 points for just the new maps and campaign from xbox live.
 
The retail pack looks the far better deal it comes with more stuff but I do feel sorry for people that have paid 800 points for each pack.

What has happened to what used to happen after a time period the maps would be free or price halved?
 
Online is terrible, you end up in laggy matches you can't quit due to point penalty.
 
I do think the lag problem has got better but that is prob due to loads of people giving up on the game.

It's worth £15 for the extra campaign, it's like gta did they released a new chapter.
 
Ah it's the Orange Box all over again...

Besides, I have bought any of the map packs yet save for the Flashback pack which I got free so this is a bargain for me. :)
 
Is this out now then? I only bought the Snowblind stuff on Friday night.

Still love horde. Even 3 v 3 AI's makes for a very good game aswell.

I agree, I really enjoy the maps even on my own. I will buy the new disc. Do you still play it much Jonny? I will try to jump on if I see you having a game.

Canals is still my fav map though :)
 
Don't think I will bother wasting my money on this tbh, since the online matchmaking is a complete joke with the constant lag I always get. I'm not talking about just a little lag I mean the only way for me to get a kill is to run around with the chain saw or throw grenades in every direction hoping for a kill, all the while I am teleporting all over the damn place.

And trying to get a private game going was next to impossible after the first 2 weeks, since everybody except me, krono and a couple of others were all that was left. Which is a shame since it is a decent game when there is no lag =/

And Danny I'm still up for horde when ever you feel like it :)
 
I've got nothing but time lately. Anything that looks remotely interesting to me I get told to **** off I'm too old for any sort of training scheme :p (which is because they would have to pay me minimum wage).

Only times I'm busy is between 2:30pm-4:30pm and wednesday dinnertimes.
 
There is suppose to be a new patch out also which should fix a lot of issues and sort out the online matchmaking not sure if it will but this pack really is a bargain for what you get.
