What do you guys think of this? IW hit a new low with this. The content is already on the disc and they will probably charge us for it in the near future.

There is:

3 gametypes

multiple maps

and more kill streaks

I'm kind of glad they did bother to release a PC version. Them modders are excellent at poking around and making IW look even worse than they've already managed to make themselves look.

I would like to hear further confirmation of this though before replying with a: "well that's shocking...zzZZzz". But no, this would not be a new low at all. And what he said.^^ People will continue to be ignorant and/or not give a ****.

And the scam continues...

Paying to "unlock" content already on the disc... amazing.

Well if people manged to make multiplayer for fully single player game like GTA:SA (client-side cheat-fest, but still nice result), this looks like piece of cake.

I am curious if it would be illegal as well. We purchased the content and they are locking us out from it and trying to charge us for it again.

Seriously, does anyone on SW have any legal knoledge or anything?...cause this sort of thing is right up there with theft, I was wondering if it might actually be illegal. And to people who hate on pirates like they're baby rapers...well what do you think of this sort of s**t? Outrageous IMO.

I know a little law and it's acceptable to do what they are doing. They didn't guarantee you any of those features when you paid for it so .. yea.

There is a certain sense of entitlement I'm sensing here. God you guys are so arrogant thinking you deserve REAL DLC instead of DLC that was already on the disk. Stop your whining, it won't matter anyway.

Sigh... I'm not surprised. But I mean, why would people be less happy to waste bandwidth when they release what was already made after waiting (and make you pay), instead of it being on the disc and making you pay (not wasting bandwidth).

while i'm sure there's some law that is broken (since the corps write the laws). morally i have no issues with using content that is on the disc of the game that you bought.

Capitalism is good. And like a good capitalist society, we should not support Activision and let them go under.

Capitalism leads to the practice of capital owners funding the election campaigns....which leads to them controlling the government....and the lawmaking body.... The only moral in capitalism is CASH....everything else is just hypocrisy....

...this was a surprise how? MW2 is catered towards the casual group. They won't know that the DLC is already on the disc. Hell, a lot of "hardcore" gamers didn't even realize the DLC was already on the disc for Resident Evil 5 until I mentioned it to them.

I already got tired of Modern Campfare 2. They lowered the aim assists (or so it seems) so now all people do is camp with an M16 or SCAR, or one of those insanely accurate LMGs. Maps are horrible and promote camping, I have no doubt these new maps will continue this trend. What makes games like CS and SOCOM great is that they take skill and camping is not even close to being a viable tactic.

That's not DLC. Gametypes? That's just stuff they will do an update for. Probably things they didn't finish balancing the game for, etc. DLC would be new Guns, Perks, Maps, etc. New Special Ops Missions, New Campaign missions too. Gametypes though? I highly doubt it.

Before hand milkage is terrible, it's one thing to plan DLC or even have day one DLC you made waiting on the certification process, but having DLC already on the disk means that it was cleared to ship, there's no excuse. Honestly I would rather they just gave it to you 3 months down the line or something separately.

there was one mod that could be added to a CS server which would slap (small damage, some sound and move a person) that stayed in the same spot for too long hahaha.

I enjoy the game, but DLC? Well, let me put it this way. The only games I have bought DLC for this entire generation thus far are Killzone 2 and Valkyria Chronicles. Modern Warfare 2 ain't no Killzone 2 or Valkyria Chronicles, so I won't be buying any DLC for it.
