First MW2 Map Pack Hits XBL March 30
After yesterdays news from 402 that we would be getting “a lot of Modern Warfare 2 DLC news this week” we already have the first and most exciting piece of news.
In the latest tweet from the Infinity Ward community manager there is confirmation that the first Modern Warfare 2 map pack will be released in just three short weeks, on MARCH 30 2010……..
fourzerotwo – http://www.mapathy.com – Feeling the effects of Mapathy? It’s okay, the cure is hitting Xbox live in just 3 short weeks.
No mention of its name or what it’s comprised of, but as the date is merely weeks away, details will likely arrive very, very soon (screenshots FTW.) Oh, At this point I should probably remind PS3 users that the MW2 map pack will be available on the PSN one month later.
Keep an eye on MW2Blog to stay updated.
ONE MONTH LATER!? come on.come MS quit doing thisvfor gods sake. gotta pay millions of $’s for megabytes of data that probably 1/4 of the community won’t buy. can’t be fair.

@mont1994, Dude, they announced them to be released in exactly 21 days. FFS man, get some patience. I would have assumed there were coming at the end of April. This is good news, don’t be some grumpy.

I’m glad XBL gets map packs first. We acually pay for our services and we deserve it.

@me, Yeah right! The PSN free service is so great! How’s that working out for you after this past week? I’d rather pay for a dependable service then to have it crash on me one day out of the blue. You PS3 fan boys can yuck it up for 30 days while we (Xbox 360 users) play the new maps on a service we gladly pay for.

@Dagda 9,
i love that if we’re PS3 users we’re fanboys… 24 hours later PSN fixed the problem and everything is perfect. if i do recall xbox live had the same issue a while back for an entire week… oh but im sure you all received a check in the mail for lost time right?
i will gladly wait 30 days for the first map pack, let all the nubes find the glitches and have them fixed before we waste our time.

@RogueStatus50,
What you’re not a fan of the system you own? Both systems have had their problems, agreed. So wait the 30 days and let all us “nubes” try the new maps out and we’ll let you know how they are. BTW, how are you going to “hav it b free” in 30 days when you have to pay for DLC?

@RogueStatus50, i agree with that xbox fan boys can go shouve there 20 dollars up there ass while we are spending ours on a good map pack without f**king worrying about the god dam bugs and glitches u stupid faggot xbox queers take ur hardrive that cost 100 and shove it
Great ! Yet more maze like maps boring boring zzzzz pass me the sedatives
[Reply]
I can wait a month, totally worth it. Did someone mention free online play, oh yeah PSN is free. Must really suck to pay for a service that you can’t even use because your xcircle went RROD on you…AGAIN.

@laserrs,
While I’ve been through my fair share of 360s, I haven’t had one die on me in the last 3 years. I’d much rather have less dependable hardware with a great online service, than a decent hardware machine with a so-so online service. Also to all who say that paying for a service sucks or whatever, it’s 3.00 dollars a month for 13 months! If you can’t pay that, put the controller down and get a job.
*sends laserrs a chat invite from MW2 while laseers is playing MAG*
Dude, why can’t you join my chat? Oh that’s right, PS is adding that to their paid online service.
[Reply]
yea you get it one month later after all us xbox users act as freakin beta testers!!! cannot wait to see how s**tty these maps were made………
[Reply]
I was kinda pissed having to wait another month for the Ps3, until I recalled that my online is free and you guys will beta test it for us to work out all the bugs.
Thanks XBL users, we appreciate you

@Dallas, *facepalm* Whatever makes you sleep better at night, buddy. If you really think 360 users are testing the maps, you need help.
To put it in perspective, there’s no way PS users are getting different maps than the Xbox users. Xbox folks are just getting the same maps 30 days earlier.
There isn’t ANY beta testing going on. You’ll get the same ones we do.

@Jesse, I know what he’s talking about. Maybe try some reading comprehension next time. I highly doubt IW has the time to find the bugs, attempt to fix them, test it, patch it into the “360 maps” and then release them for the PS3 users within 30 days. I’m no dev, but 30 days isn’t that much time.
Also in the future if you want people to actually take you seriously, I wouldn’t post such bigoted crap as..
“i agree with that xbox fan boys can go shouve there 20 dollars up there ass while we are spending ours on a good map pack without ****ing worrying about the god dam bugs and glitches u stupid faggot xbox queers take ur hardrive that cost 100 and shove it”
You are only making all the PS3 fanboys look even worse. As you can tell from my posts, I don’t bash the PS3 like most of the PS3 users are doing to Xbox. Grow the eff up.
Oh and if you aren’t sure what “reading comprehension” is….
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading_comprehension
the term fanboys? c’mon. of course someone prefers something over another thing. and for the online service, 360 has the red rings of death, ps3 has crazy unknown online service not working. each system has its downsides. stop pestering each other over such little things. just be happy that sooner or later we all are getting new maps. geez……who thought video games would cause so much division hahaha

fanboys make me sad to be a 360 gamer

@Damon,
“fanboys make me sad to be a gamer”
Fixed it for you.
Oh and for the record, PS3 fanboys are the worst.

@HazyCloud, u just made yourself an annoying fanboy by saying that. artard. i hav both systems and havnt touched my 360 in a year. the only benefit would be more people that play. but even that doesnt matter. so i stick to my ps3 that has more to it than an xbox. and thats a fact ( unless your xbox is modded then idk what the hell can be done to it)

@donut_man4, Relax, man. It was only a joke. It still amazes me that people argue over what console they use on a game dedicated site. We’re all here cause we like MW2. I don’t care what system you play on, I just want to discuss your strategies for MW2. No matter what system we all play on, it’s still the same game.
I have a PS3 and Xbox i think xbox is better you, don’t get to have parties with people on PS3.
So you have to talk in game chat which sucks especially if there are annoying ass 8 year old’s playing, but i like both systems and Xbox live wasn’t out for a whole week i would have remembered that it was only out for about 12 hours when they brought the new update up. (facebook, Twitter and, Last.fm)
I like both consoles i just prefer playing on Xbox Ive had mine for 2 years and no RROD and yes PS3 has more power in handling games.
[Reply]
This is bulls**t! Why do ps3 users get the map packs 30 days later? And don’t even bother telling me to be patient because I don’t want to hear that s**t!
[Reply]
Xbox users pay M$ all that money, lol. I wish I could smile and throw away money like that.

@TheFatherofLies, All that money? I pay 3 bucks a month for a great, seamless online experience.
It is also heavily rumored PSN will announced a paid online service that supports cross-game chat. I’d safely wager that a good percentage of PSN users will opt for the paid version over the free version to obtain more features.

@RS, wow xbox was down for 1 week. Big deal, PS3 goes down almost daily from what i hear from my friends.
I would gladly pay $3 a month to get a waaaaaaaay better online service than pay $0 and get s**tty service. Well actually it doesnt really matter that PS3 has a s**tty online service because, they dont have any games.
[Reply]
yeah i cant really wait for the new maps to come out because the maps now on call of duty are getting pretty boring especially when they play the same ones over and over.(estate and high rise) i dont mind paying $15 for 5 maps because those are 5 maps i didnt have before.im getting my microsoft points today !! 1600 =]
[Reply]
im willing to pay $15
[Reply]
y make the richest man in the world richer??? no offense to Xbox users but that’s all it is… bill gates was rich enough to have the xbox people pay for service… it’s just another way for him to make more money! my best friend has a xbox and i do not see the diff between the two, if there is it so minimal! xbox or ps3 i still rock the sticks i just won’t contirbute to someone that is greedy and makes xbox users pay to play!! just retarted! i’ll still get to play the maps do to my best friend have an xbox doesn’t really matter to me! but it is dumb that we have to wait longer cause of a greedy lil man!
[Reply]
Thank god there are actually some ps3 people out there. I can wait 30 months because ive had my ps3 for 5 years, and never had a problem. Plus, i plan to use that time to prestige, and possibly play some god of war 3. Hows Red Rings goin, all of you Xbox fanboys? with an over 50% failure rate, at least half of you mustve ben RRODed already.
[Reply]
by the way @pete, get your friggen head out of your ass. The ps3 rarely goes down, id say never but that hiccup about half a month ago happend. Do you live in a mental asylum, cause your friend are insane.
[Reply]
can i just say if xbox is paying for online why the hell dont they use that money to lower the price of game add ons instead of getting add ons earlier it just common sense , for the argument about xbox & ps3 there both equal i have had both from releas date and they work fine
[Reply]
WILL IT BE AVAILABLE FROM MIDNIGHT?
