Quick Quotes: Treyarch has nothing to do with map pack pricing

4.1
“You know, we’re on the development side, so we don’t really have much to do with the business aspect of it, but we just strive to give players the most value that we can possibly give. If you look at how many hours – in some cases, hundreds of hours – for some players of entertainment they get, I think it’s an incredible value. We’ve had three DLC map packs for the fans within about six to seven months of launch, which is a record for us. I think it’s incredible, and everyone’s really excited about the fact that we can support a game for that long and keep the fans interested.” – Black Ops multiplayer lead Dan Bunting to Gama on why map packs run 1200 MSP each.

ROFLCOPTERS I think Treyarch is just greedy. It's annoying that they keep making new map packs. They say: "We do it for the players." and stuff, but they just want money. I'm a player who likes the old stuff. Not the, NEW AND IMPROVED! things that you have to buy.


Stop Bitching if you dont like the price STFU and dont buy the map pack

If your complaining about the pricing then don't buy the **** map pack! Miss out on the new maps and the amazing zombie maps the come out with just shut up and stop complaining it's 15$ for countless hours of fun

Shortly after Annihilation was released, another map pack was hinted at. Treyarch might not choose the prices, but they definitely want the money.

Truly $15 dollars is worth the packs. Like it says "If you look at how many hours in some cases, hundreds of hours for some players of entertainment they get, I think its an incredible value. Weve had three DLC map packs", that's very true

Groovy I'm sure activision havent caused this, cod 4 was it's starter at 800msp, waw then moved it to 1200msp which is developed by treyarch!


No, all the WaW map packs were 800 MSP each. MW2 was the first CoD to charge 1200 MSP per map pack. So get off Treyarch's nuts.


Ahh well, treyarch can still do one, both there games have sucked and cod4 and mw2 are still favourites.

They're good for zombies, that's is.

Mw3 will easily be record sales as all forthcoming cod games will be after that.


Every CoD after MW3 will break records? Yeah right. It's going to follow marios path. Abused, over used, and ****. MW3 if not the game after, will be the last games to have super sales in the CoD franchise.


Its Activison realizing that no matter how much they charge people will buy it. So they become evan more greedy.


FFS if you dont like the game or the maker dont play it
