MW2 DLC

Monster ninja · 22 Mar 2010 at 14:55

i have had it with MW2 this game that costs £55 then there charging 1200ms points for a map pack you will "need"! 1200ms points for just new maps no new guns, no new achievements just maps! not even any new game times like a unranked list so we can play with guests.

however with halo 3 DLC we get new achievements, vehicles, objects and maps! for just 800ms points, so why is the cod DLC 1200ms we can buy a hole game of XBL for that!

The severs on cod always seam to lag/crash not work end halfway in a game, never had the same with problems with halo! last night 4/4 games were glitched speed lobbies that messed up my a long with a lot of other peoples score!

but becuase this is cod they will still be selling the game in the millions and the same with the DLC.

there rant over...XD

I've tried to read that a couple of times now. I think i understand what you are trying to say, but the only conlclusion I have is that maybe you should go back to school instead of playing video games.

And you were well and truly ripped if you payed £55 for it in the first place.

Wasn't in any store i was in. Most high street game shops had it for £45 odd i think. Got mine on release for £31 on the 360.

You quoted the RRP and also claimed it cost £55, make your mind up.
This isnt really suprising, the easy thing to do would be to not buy it, the maps are probably crap anyway, in my opinion the MW2 were all mostly crap anyway.

P.S. Who actually gives a **** about achievements, sure they add a tiny bit more fun to games, but dont base purchases on them, too many people rate achievement points too highly... Its not like they matter in the grand scheme of things.

Sure it was about £25 in Asda on release day when I went with my mate to pick it up.
You need to find somewhere else to buy your games, or order online.

This has gone wildly OT. I think most of you got at what he was getting it at... :/

antijoke · 22 Mar 2010 at 15:36

So you pay more to earn points to spend on games that cost more?

I love your logic.

If you don't want the DLC, don't buy it. It's that simple.

You're a retard if you go somewhere to get reward points for paying twice as much as you could somewhere else.
Asda is also open 24hours in many places.
Also.. why cant you just wait till the morning to get the game? Paying an extra £20-£30 to be playing something a few hours before you could have otherwise, 24hours maximum potentially.
I definately do not envy your life.

Monster ninja is a sad panda- someone give him a cuddle.

not me.

I don't think anyone will be forced to spend 1200msp - show your disdain by simply not purchasing

We do, they are further exploiting the brand as it is a popular one and plenty of people will lap it up, its no shock, simple thing to do is dont buy it. Shock. People survived without the map pack, so why spend more if it isnt worth it?
It shouldnt be too popular, I mean if the guy that wants to spend double the price to get clubcard points sussed it out to be the rip off that it is then the average person wont even concider buying it.

It's also a dead cert to be on the Gold Members discount thingy at some point

Dum dum dum.. join a new game?
Im sure theres plenty of people playing origional maps.
I dont know much about this DLC but is it guaranteed that you're all getting lumped together with matchmaking, or will the matchmaking seperate people with and without, as that would be obvious.. but so are dedicated servers for first person shooters.

It's MW2, I wouldn't bet on that happening anytime soon.

True, I think the MW1 stuff has only just been on it recently. But if it is really bothering him that much then he can just wait until then. Am sure plenty of people will still be playing it then.

I can't see you getting kicked out of that many games either. I never had the MW1 stuff and didn't get kicked out of loads of games.
