Can't find word of this anywhere. Surely bullshit.

I'd probably agree with that.
How long are the maps 360 exclusive?

So many things wrong w/ this statement. We didn't even get to beta MW2, it's already been shown to be 1200 space bucks on those promo redemption cards, and it's activision - we all know there is no humanity left in that company - pay to play is their new motto.

Overgrown ? Another perfect map for aerial support... And campers... Oh well.

do sentry guns count toward kill streak kills?

Anything from a care package is the only thing that doesn't.
Wow, I had totally forgotten about silenced SCARs and TARs. Holy shit, these are beasts! It actually feels like the SCAR gets stronger with a silencer on! The accuracy must be through the roof on that thing silenced, because every kill I got in that match was like a huge surprise to me. There was a lot of "wait what?" coming from me, and for once it was to my benefit. The damn thing kills as fast as akimbo SMGs!
So I guess I feel the SCAR love now! Only downside on that setup is that it kinda needs Scavenger.
On another note, here's a few videos I found pretty good:
SeaNanners' second (I think?) nuke without killstreaks. I know he has haters, but this man is really fucking good at the game.
Someone found a way for you to run around with a laptop up at all times.
GUNIT123 gets a nuke without killstreaks...and WITHOUT BULLETS. This is insane. (Warning: GUNIT123 is a massive chav. Might wanna mute.)
SeaNanners wins an FFA using only a throwing knife.
Both of the latter are duals with ONLYUSEmeBLADE.
Don't know what the rules are, I just know that to get a "real" (non-CP) PaveLow to count you must call it in and then get a kill before it does. Not sure how sentries work, but I know for sure that I had one and had definitely died like 5 times between obtaining it and using it and when I set it down, it went to town on their team and suddenly I had a new one without getting a single kill myself in that life.

That's supposed to be true, but isn't. Sentry Gun and PaveLow are weird and glitched, and sometimes a Care Package version of either WILL get you a new streak.Foliorum Viridum said:

Uhhh, what about the other maps that were shown in the leaked videos? I thought Shipment was supposed to be back as well?

It's entirely possible there will be a second DLC...

Later DLC needs crossfire, district, and broadcast. Shipment was a shitty level and its even more useless than rust.
Robert Bowling confirmed on latest Major Nelson podcast that Stimulus Package will be 1200 points.
Crash and Overgrown remain relatively untouched, just the graphics have been updated.
Right before or around release of DLC, there will be an update that adds new maps to rotation in Hardcore HQ and some new playlists, an example he gave being Hardcore Mosh Pit.

1200 points is pretty embarrassing especially since 2 are reworks and 1 will be super small.

I really hope this doesnt become the standard price point, am I right in thinking the WaW map packs had 3 maps and a zombies map for 800 ms points?

I was thinking of picking this game up again, having sold it once I got to level 70 and got 1000/1000 achievements. The multiplayer had lots of problems but I was wanting to be able to play it every now and again. But $15 map packs are silly unless it's at least 10 maps (ok, maybe 9). Heck, at least the CoD4 ones should be free. They were the CoD4 beta ones too just to put salt on the wound.

As far as the playlists go, has anyone really been dying for Hardcore Mosh Pit? I mean really?
A "barebones" playlist has been asked for since CoD4! No killstreaks, no perks. It was even mentioned by fourzerotwo himself!
Fucking make it happen already.

It is for a map pack.
Certainly in the light that previous packs were 10$. 50% price increase.
And it's fucking ridiculous they dare to call it a stimulus package. Good show.
Felt kind of bad shoveling out 800 pts for maps in the past. Bought all the fucking maps for 4 and 5 (zombies rule). But fuck me, hell no. No way im paying 1200 points.
whitehawk said:
And it is not that I dont have the points, got an unopened card in front of me, but it is just nuts when you think about it.
I know I am going to have a lot of fun with those maps. But damn. For that money I could buy an arcade game. Or even almost a full 360 game on sale.
They made a BILLION bucks, literally, on the game. How about showing some support for the fans. Make it 400. But no, let's add that 400 on top off the already high price we have.

For what it's worth, those in the know say that the two CoD4 maps have been rebuilt. They would have to be in order to be playable in this game. It's less work, but not zero work.
And in terms of value, if you were like me and never played Nazi Zombies, the W@W DLC was 800MSP for 3 maps, which is a rate of 266.67MSP per map. Five maps at that rate comes to 1333.33MSP, and we're getting them for 1200MSP. We're essentially being discounted 133MSP because two of them are remakes.
Or you could look at it in terms of the CoD4 map pack, which was 4 maps for 800MSP, which is a rate of 200MSP per map. Five maps at that rate comes to 1000MSP, which means that we're essentially paying the same amount for one less map at the CoD4 rate.
I'm super surprised that there's nothing Spec Ops related in the first DLC - I would have bet money that it would have happened.
Oh well - as long as they don't throw people with the maps and without the maps into the same lists, I'll be okay. That basically ruined W@W for me and I don't want it to ruin MW2 for me too.
But who am I kidding - I'll probably buy the maps anyway

The Trials HD DLC was the single greatest piece of DLC in the history of DLC, in terms of value and content. Hardly a fair comparison. :lol
$15 for a map pack is especially poor when IW's community support has been non-existent. Like literally no double XP weekends ever, the lack of a public beta resulting in all the glitches, etc. Hell, a few days ago I was loaded into a match where moving side-to-side was done at superspeed.

People pay 800 points for 3 maps all the time, so is 1200 for 5 really that bad?

Agreed. Ive payed 800msp for 3 maps in Halo, i find 1200 for 5 in cod mw2 very reasonable, though two of them are remakes.

LOL, 1200 points. No thanks, IW.
