Modern Warfare 2: Stimulus Package
Robert Bowling talks about today's DLC infusion.
No date has been set for those platforms, but as soon as we know, we're going to be alerting our community.
No, er, we don't have a date yet, so I don't want to speculate and then miss it.
The second map pack? I don't think a date's been set yet. Right now we like to focus on one map pack at a time and not let marketing or competition determine our development cycles. We set a quality bar; we really want our DLC not to be pushed out for quantity. That's what dictates our development cycle.
I'd like them to! But we're gong to reserve them for special events. We're doing our first one the weekend following the DLC release. We like to keep them scarce - if you do too many then you devalue the whole rank-up system.
We definitely celebrate those lists when they come out. That's what matters most to us. That's a direct reflection of what our players are doing. Definitely we take a lot of pride in those lists, when we see Modern Warfare 2 is number one since launch.
They're proving to be pretty long! As long as our community keeps playing it every night we're going to keep supporting them by coming up with new content and playlist updates - we're supporting them for supporting us. If we keep that up and they keep that up then I think we can stay up there for a while.
We would have to do some digging. Just talking to some of our most hardcore players, I mean some of these guys have 14, 15, 16 days of playtime! It's pretty insane. Personally I have a little over five days, and I thought that was hardcore!
We definitely take pride that our players stick with us regardless of any other games that come out. We definitely have a very loyal community and we love that.
The Stimulus Package is out today on Xbox Live and costs 1200 Microsoft Points (£10.20/€14.40)
