COME AT ME BRO!
well I got the maps last night. I like Bailout and Crash. I don't remember which one but one of them plays like Rust. That could be good or bad. Overall. I don't feel it's worth the 14.99. In a world where apps and other things go for $0.99, these maps should either have been free, or something like $4.99 or so.

played some more last night, I liked it more. I feel like there are more places to really hide and be snarky / stealth whatever. and I like that. Also there are some pretty nice longshot type distances going on. I don't think I've played Storm yet.

^^ yeah sounds like the next one might hit sooner than we thought! great!
here's a great comment from that link:
lol.. I'd have to agree.
here's a great comment from that link:
One of the great things about the map packs is that you don't have to buy them. Yep, you can join most play lists and still be kept in the rotation.
If you play this game enough to complain about it, then you probably should just look into how much time you invest and work out the value you for yourself.
15 isn't much. Get a job. This game is for adults, not kids, any adult playing video games can afford 15 dollars.

Modern Warfare 2's Stimulus Package DLC breaks sales records
It looks like price concerns and launch-day snafus haven't had much of an adverse effect on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's Stimulus Package DLC. Just like the boxed game hit new heights for pre-orders, sales, and online activity, Activision announced that the content has "shattered Xbox Live records." In the first 24 hours of availability, the DLC was purchased 1 million times, while the tally after a week on the market came to 2.5 million. For those of you doing the math, that means the DLC has produced $37.5 million in a week.
The previous champion of Xbox Live DLC also wore the Call of Duty banner, as World at War's first map pack had previously laid claim to the week-one record. The number of downloads, according to the World at War blog, was 1 million over the first seven days, a record the Stimulus Package was able to defeat within hours.

I'm hoping they'll release more maps in the future... if they make soooooo much off these maps... it wouldn't be a bad idea...

I like how there's more vertical options. Especially on crash where you can go up like 3 flights of stairs.
Here is a video about the next map pack, dunno if it's accurate but here it is:

Fuck Activision.... I hope whoever thought of the idea to charge $20 (what I've read) for this next map pack gets a red-hot cattle prod up the anus.
And they have Strike and Vacant! I loved Vacant too, no shelter for those pathetic machine gun campers. I don't get how anyone could just sit there with an RPD, aiming down the irons, waiting for someone to show up, and actually have any fun. On TDM, no less

Now that I've been playing this game for a while, I think I've finally found some pretty good weapon set-ups. (With some tweaking)
FAL w/ Red Dot and Noob Tube (Stopping Power) is the tits
edit:
I don't see myself paying, yet again, for the next map pack

ill confess, i sometimes use the RPD like a sniper rifle. and that means sitting on top of buildings looking for people. i love its long range capability. and the great thing is, if someone rushes you, bam, you're ready for em.

eh...what the heck. I'll run down my 6 classes quick (Typically if I don't have Bling Pro, I'll use Sleight of Hand Pro.):
1.
FAL (red dot/noob tub) / M1014 (red dot/grip) : M1014 interchangeable with SPAS
Bling Pro, Stopping Power Pro, Commando Pro
2.
UMP (silencer) / 45 (tactical knife)
Marathon Pro, Lightweight Pro, Commando Pro
3.
RPD (silencer/grip) / M9 (trying to get akimbo) : Working to get FMJ
Bling Pro, Stopping Power Pro, Commando Pro or Steady Aim
4.
50 cal (thermal/FMJ) / PP20000 (silencer)
Bling Pro, Cold Blooded Pro, Ninja Pro
5.
SCAR (noob tube) / Javelin : SCAR interchangeable with AK-47
Scavenger Pro, Danger Close Pro, Commando Pro
6.
M16 (ACOG/heartbeat sensor) / RPG : May switch ACOG for silencer
Bling Pro, Cold Blooded Pro, Ninja Pro
Current Kill Streak:
Predator Missile, Harrier, CG/AC130. I'm going to start working towards getting a nuke.

nuke was fun until i finished the challenge..
once you get harrier, you are pretty much set for a nuke unless harrier gets shut down immediately..
i'm going to try some other KS..
probably sentry gun, pave low, emp

in FFA air support usually gets shot down a few moments after it goes up...

uh i doubt that. all im saying is, air support does not stay up for long to get lots of kills. especially annoying when you have a CG.

it also depends on maps tho - this one time recently on Wasteland I had CG and had about 15 kills. did not get shot down. also, obviously you can defend against the air attacks, if you can spot the guys. I think that may have been a factor there. Maybe I will switch to AC130 killstreak and try it out for a bit. I felt I could get more kills with CG, just because it lasts longer. but if they are getting shot down, then that's a problem.

i think you get more kills with CG if you don't get shot down and people are spread out
also, ground war seems to have these greedy noobs like myself just trying to get more kills and hope someone else shoot down the aircrafts
in the end, if you are the one controlling aircraft, you get insane kills
oh.. and ground war domination FTW if you want massive kills

It's okay though cause right after that I camped in the bunker, laying down and watched the cliff. He tried to peek over the edge and I took out his head with the Intervention. Again he tried to do the same, and I killed him again, then he quit
If I'm running around rushing people with a TMP, then he has no excuse...

yeah. I mean if that doesn't frustrate you, I don't know what would. IMO it ranks right up there in terms of lameness with the Javelin glitchers.
