This is literally the same map pack that was released for MW4 like a decade ago and it was only $10 then holy poo poo I can't stop laughing.

And anyone who bought this DLC back then knows that there's only 1 good map here with Broadcast.

The kicker is this: if you bought the season pass, this content is not included. So you might be paying $115 before microtransactions for the full experience of CoD 2016. :discourse:

Which is the one they released a map pack for free, because it was so popular at Christmas it slammed xbox live to its knees for a straight week?

It was released for free on PC because ATI or NVIDIA sponsored it. I think it always cost money on the 360/ps3.

Ah, yeah. I remember the loving flame wars that errupted because console players were paying for a map pack that even a year earlier would have just been free on PC. Now it's an industry standard, back then it was blasphemy.

Oh, and we ended up with some SCUBA themed side scroller online shooter because Xbox Live got trashed during Christmas 2007. It wasn't really good but I think the same company made Shadow Complex using the same technology later on.

I wouldn't say it's poo poo, it's just... you have no reason to spend money at all on it. Like, you can literally get by with just commons.

This isn't the problem. It's the broken back end of matchmaking, party hosting, server lag, and general other bugs that have only gotten worse over the history of the franchise.
Never have I seen a more broken-rear end game, and I've owned KOTOR 2, Fallout 3, and the last three Elder Scrolls games.

Bought Titanfall 2 at lunch. $20 is my happy will but if it's fun price range.

Hoping the MP is better than IW.

It's miles ahead of IW. The game balance is pretty good at this point.

Titanfall 2 is just so much more well-thought-out than IW. BO3 has a better case but the netcode is so sloppy in comparison, and there's more depth to advanced movement in Titanfall. The only real complaint I have with TF2 is panic punching, which makes sense as they also thought Commando was a good idea in MW2.

Unlocked both the new guns. They're fun, but not as fun as some of the ones they released for Black Ops 3 (the Marshal was super fun, among others). I don't think they or anything else will keep me playing this game after the new Mass Effect comes out. Such is the end of people playing this on Xbone, I guess, since I was the last holdout.
