    I've read that all of the DLC missions raise the level cap by 5.  If I only purchase the last one, will I get the cumulative effect of all the other ones (ie if there were 2 prior DLC releases then the level cap would be raised by 15) or would it only go up by 5 since I only have one DLC.

    Has anyone announced a GOTY edition yet? I would like to get this game and all the content, but I figure I have waited this long so I might as well wait for the GOTY edition with all the DLC.

    @redbliss:  
     The last DLC has not yet been released, so if they're going to release a full package it's not going to happen before the end of this year, or maybe even early next year.
     
    @sickVisionz: 
    No. 5 more levels each DLC, and they're NOT stacked if you only buy the latest, though if you are on the PS3 version, updating the game will gain you a level cap to 50 without even owning any DLC's due to a bug. If you can only buy one at the moment i highly recommend Old World Blues.

    A quick note on this bug: I wouldn't abuse it before you get any of the DLCs. Each content pack also adds a number of level-up perks, if you jump right to 50 you'll potentially miss out on some nice perk options.

    A Problem could be that you can't disable experience points. If you want to see everything in the Wasteland you are automatically the highest level.
