Most pc games I see get free dlc other consoles pay for not just the cod series. Heres why IW moved to Steam…. Borderlands! Games like this running on steam or steam only have DLC you need to pay for! So theres your answer. Just like borderlands soon you will see MODERN WARFARE 2 MAPPACK… $19.99

then a long fun description, a middle finger, and who knows what else. This is most likely going to be the case, so if this does happen ill just join the hackers and spread some hacks and ruin the game and turn everyone over to hamachi or tunngle or some other pirate network where we can all have 100% control over the game.

of course id prefer a pc anyday, so dont rip the shit, i honestly just dont have the money, and yes i hate the 99% of xbox's population of 10 year old kids

Under what circumstances would it be OK to pay for something to be unlocked on a piece of media that you already own? It's like spending five bucks to unlock special features on a 20 dollar DVD. Everyone saying that PC gamers need to STFU about this needs to look at the big picture.

Imagine you are a console gamer, I don't care which console. Look at the history of DLC on consoles. Console gamers have mostly always had to pay for new content, even if it isn't worth the money you spend on it.

Case in point, Halo 3. The Legendary map pack was released with three new maps, for ten dollars. Then six months later, ODST comes out with not only those three maps, the maps in the Heroic pack (Ten Dollars), but (GASP!) three new maps, also in the Legendary category! Not more then a month ago, the Legendary pack Part Two was released on live, with the three new maps from ODST. WTF?

This is not good distribution. A PC gamer would never pay thirty dollars for nine new maps. Why? Because they've been designing their own maps since the original DOOM! What's been the point of the last 15+ years of console evolution if you stay in this endless cycle of payment for services rendered? Oh, but Halo 3 has Forge! Forge is shit! Why? Because you just spawn objects!

The only series of console games that I've ever encountered that truly let you make your own maps was the Timesplitters series on PS2 and original Xbox. This was a series that is miles ahead of Halo's Forge, because it let you design every facet of the map, from layout and textures, to enemy spawns, to enemy behavior, to challenges, to sequences. PC players can argue that it was crippled by the consoles that it ran on, but at least it was a step in the right direction. Letting Console users create their own maps, TRULY create their own maps, is something that I have never seen since on Consoles.

PC never has had this problem. Good Modding communities are everywhere on PC, and help keep old games like Tribes 2 alive far longer then they would on Consoles, because they can create new content for the games they love. It's only a matter of time before consoles become powerful enough to handle modding, but it'll be decades in the making if Companies like Microsoft, Infinity Ward, Epic Studios, and all these other developers realize that they can inflate their profit by milking money from consumers for content that they should have from the beginning.

At least try to understand why PC gamers are upset about IW releasing a game that's over 15 years behind the times.

Shouldn't we then be able to file a law suit against IW for this? I mean if they do eventually charge us for DLC, I would label it as fraud since they are forcing you to pay for access to something you already paid for.

That's like buying a ticket to a movie, and then in the middle of it you are told you have to pay again if you would like to see the ending..

However,
We did pay for the game and all of its content should be yours right?
I still cant believe that IW would do something like this.
Dont get me wrong i am still mad at them for it ,but is it really as big a deal as we are making it?
