Bad Company 2 to offer free March 30 'mapathy' cure

4.6
Oh man, EA's pursuit of Modern Warfare 2 just got hot, as DICE has announced via the Battlefield Blog that on March 30 -- the same day the Stimulus Package DLC will boost Modern Warfare 2's map count -- Battlefield: Bad Company 2's VIP members will receive the free "VIP Map Pack 2," which adds a Conquest mode scenario to the Arica Harbor map and Rush mode to Laguna Presa.

Both maps aren't new to the game, however neither has been available for play in the "unlocked" game modes noted above. So, that kinda qualifies as a "map pack," right? Regardless, it's free, as DICE boldly proclaims in its jab at Activision and Infinity Ward: "How to avoid 'mapathy' without paying!"

BFBC2 is a good game but it seems like a chore. Too much like bfbc1 and it gets pretty boring after a while. MW2 beats BFBC.

This is simply a playlist update. Nothing new really. I'd be appalled if they tried to charge for it.

Battlefield is such a better game than MW2. Most people just need to give it a chance. It's a great game.
