Robert “fourzerotwo” Bowling has just tweeted shortly ago the following:
Modern Warfare 2 playlists now updated. They should all have double XP and include the new maps in their rotation. May need to restart! #MW2
This is great news! I do not know what person thought it would be fun at all to everyone to have to play in a variety of game modes in order to just play the new maps. Thank you for listening to the community on solely this one issue Infinity Ward! Thank you!
Modern Warfare 2′s New Map Pack’s have now been released! Grab them from the Marketplace or go to Xbox.com to purchase them and have them ready to download to your console.
You will also be getting a title update. This includes fixes for hacks, that will most likely be unpatched again, also improved local game searching, one many army tweaks, M9 challenge fix and much more.
Here is the upcoming downloadable content “Stimulus Package” for Modern Warfare 2. Provided for you in High Definition (HD). There are 3 new maps, Bailout, Storm and Salvage. Then also 2 old maps from Call of Duty 4 (COD4), Crash and Overgrown.
This map pack is exclusive to Xbox Live for the first match and will be out on March 30th, 2010. After the exclusive month is up, you will be able to grab them on PS3 or PC. This map pack on Xbox Live is 1200 MSP.
Details about Infinity Ward’s upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 map pack, titled the Stimulus Package, have been revealed via the weekly Xbox LIVE Marketplace podcast (from special guest Robert Bowling). This download contains five maps in total, two of which appeared in the first Modern Warfare title.
This pack will be available to download exclusively on Xbox LIVE starting on March 30, 2010. PS3 and PC owners will have to wait a bit longer but no official release for those systems has been revealed. Activision has confirmed the pack will cost 1200 Microsoft points ($14.99). 3 completely new and 2 rehashed (from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare) maps is below:
Here are the map descriptions:
Bailout – a multi-level apartment complex
Storm – an open industrial park littered with heavy machinery
Salvage – a snowy junkyard fortified by stacked debris and crushed cars
Crash – a war-torn urban environment (CoD4)
Overgrown – features a massive dry creek bed (CoD4)
It has just been confirmed by Robert “fourzerotwo” Bowling that Modern Warfare 2′s first DLC (downloadable content) will arrive on Xbox 360 March 30th, 2010. If you are unaware of this, this is exclusive to Xbox 360 for the first 30 days only. Afterwards, those PS3 and PC players will be able to play these new maps as well. So mark your calendars!
In this new downloadable content currently titled from my knowledge as “Stimulus Package” I do know contain 2 maps from Call of Duty 4, those being Overgrown and Crash. I am more a fan of Strike and Bog and wish those were coming over instead. Could you imagine a game of Bog on Modern Warfare 2? Hell yeah, I wish it would happen. But I would be more than happy with just Strike, my favorite map of all time.
They also contain 3 new maps Complex, Compact and Storm. I can not post pictures that have been previously leaked days ago. You will just have to wait till the end of the month to play them or as new information arrives over the next few weeks. I am sure there will be and we will be posting them when the time comes too.
