Battlefield: Bad Company 2 VIP Map Pack 4 Trailer

yey

so close.

also so close.

*sigh*
Still want new maps

This is not a 'Map Pack' 

This isn't a map pack. This is a pack of existing modes added to existing maps.

On one hand, I'm annoyed that this wasn't all unlocked from the get go. On the other hand, I have to hand it to them for making a reason to track and come back to the game.

Yey and all that.
 
But at some point these map packs should include maps...

Will this pack improve people's competence to defend? oh dip?
 
But i would like actual new maps now.

It doesn't matter that i've wanted these maps in these game modes from the beginning, it's still not new maps...

1. get modern warfare 2
2. spend $30

All the new changes to increase damage, the fact that these aren't real maps, and an overall feeling of being taken for an idiot has left me disinterested. 
 
This 'gaming' crap is starting to suck.

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.

I should get back to this.

lolseys

I wonder how much work actually goes into these all there doing it seems is rezoning existing maps and adding either capture points or M-COM stations. 

Oh yay new maps that I haven't played before!  
 
In other news, why did they ruin sniping on hardcore? The whole point of hardcore - more realistic, more damage - yet they TOOK AWAY one bullet sniper kills? Fuck that I might as well go to normal mode where I get a radar that points the fuckers out for me and I can take more damage, if I still need to score a headshot to down a guy.

They'll just keep stalling until the release of the Vietnam expansion ¬¬

While completely new maps would be nice, the Rush and Conquest versions of maps play very differently, so more of these are welcome.

" @Death_Burnout: well that's easy.  

1. get modern warfare 2
2. spend $30

Can't argue with free, I guess. Just wish we didn't have to wait till Vietnam to get new maps.... and only four at that.

The Rush versions of these previously non-rush maps are actually pretty good, they can be considered a new map. 
 
But the rush maps that go backwards to conquest or whatever are just a small chunk of that map, which is stupid. 
 
I'm very disappointed at DICE. Even the guys at Infinity Ward, who have like 3 people left making maps, pumped out two map packs. And they don't even have a good game! 
 
Also, is the stupid lag fixed on the East Coast? I swear, it was like my main enemy in every MP game was that damn rubberbanding lag. 

Agree with general sentiment, while good maps to enjoy, you kind of wish they made brand new ones instead of modifying existing ones. 
 
Altho the flip side is would we be willing to pay for map packs ala MW2 (not necesarily at the same £10 pricemark)

 BC2 hasn't felt like a battlefield game because the maps are so confined.  If they eventually release new maps and they happen to be large maps with real room for vehicles I would gladly come back.  I don't see that happening though.    

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!

i dont care about these rehashes of old maps i want new maps its benn almost five months the maps are getting really stale.

What happened to the old, let's play one map over and over and over again and never complain about it? I honestly don't understand the desire for new maps in FPS games.

Stopped playing this game about a month ago due to boredom with the same maps.  These so-called 'map packs' don't fool anyone. If they can't get some new maps together in a reasonable amount of time (way past that now) they should get that map editor out so the community can.

I actually might get back into this when this map pack rolls 'round.

I love DICE.

Why can't DICE make new maps? These aren't map packs, they're modifications.

i stopped playing this game...they never added in any real new maps,opening other game mode maps to other game types ain't a Mappack!!!!,they should of had it on release for fuck sakes...its just a unlock
Holding content from us is not a map pack at all!
I played the maps enough so i don't need to play them anymore
Bring out new maps already!
Do they take us for idiots?

It might not be new maps (which I would prefer, I don't want to have to wait until the end of the year for the Vietnam expansion), but atleast they are using two great maps and modes.  Map Pack 3 was terrible

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. "

Yeah - the new maps are great fun. Already played a couple of hours on them. Albeit I could be bickering about many things, like Atacama not being a true tank warfare map.
 
But who am I to argue with fun...

This is BS of the highest order.  
 
Yo Dice, I would pay real people money for ACTUALLY new maps! 
 
They've taken far long to do that now.

This might also be an unfair comment to make, but, did anyone think about how much longer it takes DICE to make a map than it does Infinity Ward? What with destructible environments and vehicles and what not to account for?  
 
Plus, DICE added that survival mode right? I forget its name though ... but also on the flip side of that Infinity Ward already had a lot of Co-Op stuff... in another mode whose name escapes me right now.  
 
Also, in making comparisons between IF and DICE it might also be important to consider that IF already had map packs in development at launch and dated - whereas DICE's development of BC2:VIETNAM, well, who knows when that started?

I need to start playing this game again.

lol 
when are they going to make a new map instead of just adding modes to maps that should have already had them in the first place? 
 
pathetic.

Atacama Rush looks like a good time, always wished that map had rush. Pretty pumped for the Vietnam DLC. I wish there was something more for 1943 but hey, maybe that'll come later.
