 To be fair, it's "free" in the sense that you have to pay $10 for the VIP access, because even if you got the game brand new, you have just lost $10 of resell value as soon as you opened the wrapper. Thus for my $10 I would hope to see a few NEW maps, not just rehashed map modes. 
But more than that, I'd love it if they fixed the rubberbanding... or actually supported the game in countries where they released the game (like here in Japan that only seems to have servers during the day...)

I spot like crazy - you can get a good amount of points for spotting from a UAV with the zoom modifier thing. Just sit at max distance with a nice TV and hit the back button to spot people repeatedly then rain down smart bombs on snipers.

I have a blast every time I play this game (and get into a good group), so I won't get all grumpy about them not being "new" maps.  Still, it would be really nice to get something fresh.

It brings variation to the playlists, and it's free.
Nothing to complain about.

" When this first came out everybody was saying, 'OMGZ FREE NEW MAPS THANKS DICE BATTLEFIELD PWNZ0R MW2 SUX!!!" And now it's funny to see people actually realizing that DICE and Battlefield aren't the saviors of the world. Sure, I have to pay to get new maps on MW2, but at least they give me the option to get them. DICE just keeps throwing the same old maps at you and calling them new! "
you do know that you have to pay 30 dollars, just to get what, 4-5 new maps? rest is literally just copy-paste maps.   I dunno, i rather have free maps than having to pay half the game for 4-5 new ones. "
They may be releasing the same maps, but those are maps that were previously only for other modes, and they play very differently depending on what mode you play on them. So its pretty awesome, and they are free, so who cares.  ---------------   Also, this video is totally unrealistic and obviously fake. Nobody would use a spot assist in a real game because they are all fucking retarded. >_>" Nobody spots anymore, and its stupid because its incredibly useful for your team.  They probably shouldn't have put it on select though, that button is no fun to reach. "
play with friends if you want spot assists!
 
Also these trailers for these simple features which should be in the game from the start without needing to use some stupid pc-like code suck!

Other than the fact it should have been in the game from day one, and it isn't free we paid for it.

Hey guys, you do know that the NEW new maps are coming in BC2: Vietnam right?  I mean that so-called "expansion", as best as I can tell is just a regular old map pack.  I wonder how much they are going to charge for that puppy?

Both of these maps could play very well on the respected game types and Why are people complaining? it's not like there're charging for them.

I love how everyone complains about something they are getting for free.  
 
EA - "Here loyal customers. We're adding different modes to the maps you know and love and we're not going to charge you for it." 
 
Gamer - "SCROO YOO EA!  LOLZ!!111  MAPZ ARE SAAAMMMMEEE!!111  I WANNA PAY FOR MOAR MAPZ111  TAKE MY 15 DOLLLARZZZ." 
 
Geez, if you play bfbc2 and don't like the free stuff, just don't play the maps when they come up in the queue. If you don't play bfbc2, then why do you care? Activision is more than happy to take your $30.

" I think Dice is releasing modes instead of maps so they can work on MoH and pretend like they are supporting BFBC2. I don't think any extra work has gone into supporting BC2. All these modes for the existing maps could have probably been included at release. "
actually, one of their dev docs quoted some stats of the studio, something like 130-150 people, ~50-70 per AAA game
 
there's mirrorsedge2 & BF3 that probably take up the most resources right now, MoH is just mp & there isnt THAT much to put in it, at least employee-wise
