I'll sell you this really nice firesafe storage box. - Three days later - Oh, you want your stuff out of the box? You're going to need the key, and that's an extra $15.

While this practise is indeed nefarious...I would hardly dub it ''Sinking to a NEW low'' sadly. :?

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.InsaneBasura

The same can be done with the 360 version, just look up the Tales of Vesperia betrayal where a ton of the PS3 exclusive content is already on the 360 disc that was a 1 year timed exclusive.

Not sure if already been stated. But the issue with dlc already on the disk is that supposeably were paying for the work devs do to make extra content for a game. Well if this content is already on the disk, we've already payed for the work the devs did when we payed $60 for the game at retail. So another words we're getting ripped off, plain and simple.

What more do you expect from Activision and the current Infinity Ward to be perfectly honest?

Besides I thought so many people applaud such DLC and enjoy shelling out for it?

Yup you all haven't made yourselves easy targets for making a quick buck at all.

Honestly now. Think about it.

well it's their game not yours...whether you buy it (and by looking at the charts you did) or not is a different story. They can charge a million dollars for DLC thats already in the game and that's their choice. BUT guess what? What I saw was 3 game modes that are half baked and this being another, "I hate MW2 so bad I shake topic".

So they're going to try and sell what we already bought? That's just not fair. That's clearly immoral but IW will surely play it out like "what are you guys talkin bout nuthin wrong here lolz gimmy ur money nao"

Think if I bought a house from a painter, and a month later I wanted red rooms and he then charged me $250 to only go into my house and peel away a wall covering that gave me red rooms would seriously p me off lol. It is truly sad.

Do people fail to realise that this "content" are only game modes? This means there is no content as all it does is open up the rooms with diverent rulesets.

Lame stuff like single flags only bares to the servers rulesets, THERE IS NO CONTENT hence why its so small, it just tells your console that its now allowed to create/join alternate matches

If the new maps in the next DLC aren't the size of Texas like these crappy standard maps I might be too tempted. The maps that ship with the game are pretty terrible for the most part. Which they probably did on purpose.

How crappy of devs is IW? I mean I really don't think they would turn over a master copy to be printed with a bunch of data that is useless now do you? I mean if I'm copying music cd's I definitly don't want to sit there for another extra hour waiting for content to record that is just blank air space, unless I didn't know what I was doing in the first place lol.

Nope. They don't. They don't even know what they are responding to on a forum. They saw title...MAYBE read the TC's rant then proceeded to go into an "Activision mob stomp shake session" and started typing.

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 ****.

one problem with that, MW2 for PC is not moddable.

Absolutely anything is moddable, even if you have to reverse engineer the exe and proprietary game asset archives. Some games are just easier to mod than others.

We don't know the full story of this yet but if its true then its pretty dispicable. This will continue to happen because gamers have no backbone. Every "protest"gamers plan fizzles out and half of them are stupid protests anyway and in the end they all cave in anyway.

Same goes for preorder bonus stuff that is not available to other gamers that SHOULD be in the disk. You people buy it so they keep doing it.

If you want this to stop then...DON'T LOVING BUY IT!

Well said. I think it was half baked code that was not ready for prime time but the devs thought had merit. Does everyone want a game to end and not have more? When you love a game do you really want a sequel 2 or (GT fans) 5 years later? I wish DLC was around when Star Control was out....

It's not shocking, but it's still completely bogus. DLC should be content that wasn't finished when the game came out. If the content is finished, and on the disk, why not just let us have it? Thanks for spitting in the eyes of your fans (again...).

First off, it is merely your opinion that the game is not bad. I personally disliked the game greatly, and think it is a bad game. Of course, this is my opinion as well. Secondly, I did read the article. There is nothing there to infer that the same does not hold true to the console version.

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

Didn't Brutal Legend do the same thing? Where was this then?

Not saying it's a cool thing though, I just don't like the double standard.

I don't know how credible this info really is considering it's coming from a web-site call "Modernwarfail2.com". I'll believe it when a web-site that isn't dedicated to making MW2 look bad reports this.
