    Re: 3 modes for 10 bucks = rip off

    What's going to happen now is this DLC is goint to flop and Microsoft is going to decide HW doesn't have a strong enough market to justify any additional content and any other projects they might have in the works are going to be scuttled.

    Dave Pottinger: 800 points?! That was never a condition of our agreement!
    Microsoft Lackey: Perhaps you think you are being treated unfairly?
    Dave Pottinger: No.
    Microsoft Lackey: Good. It would be unfortunate if I had to leave a garrison here.

    we used to want to get this dlc before it came out, and now your saying it's a piece of $#!t. go get a job and buy it it's only 10$

    pigs can fly with redbull, and birds can't with white bull, and master chief becomes a banana if he drinks yellow bull. heed my warnings.

    Re: 3 modes for 10 bucks = rip off

    All I play is 1v1. With no new maps/factions/leaders, no way in hell buy this.

     

    Should be free IMO. 

     

    And fix the freaking OP hogs/Anders.

    For $10 we were expecting more than just the game modes. Even before it came out everyone was saying that if it was just game modes it should be free. Compared to other DLC this is a really poor value.

    Re: 3 modes for 10 bucks = rip off

    For me, it's not really about the price. $10 is hardly anything.

    It's more about the value because as the OP said, there are a lot of better things we can get for $10 on the marketplace so getting something so basic for the same price as downloading something for Fallout 3 is just bothersome.

    And I know some people will say "If you don't like it, don't buy it", well that is the problem. I do want it, but unfortunately I also think it's not a very good value compared to other things of the same price.

    They could have added gamer pictures to this DLC to help justify the price for me like I've wanted since launch, but I bet they didn't even bother with that.

    Well whatever. I'll be buying it all the same and I'm sure the game modes will be fun. Just gotta get another point card since I just spent my last 800 on Saints Row 2 stuff...

    Perilous Intent:For 800 points I was expecting some new maps too, it's not worth it for nothing but game modes. Right now on live it says "low population" for all the new game modes. I'm willing to bet it stays that way most of the time.

     

    And you can only play it if you're in a party. Utter bullshit. I want my money back.

    I would also like a refund, noone stated that two of these modes could only be played in a party, false advertising....

    I had no problem paying 800 points if I could use ALL the new modes in and OUT of a party, I hardly ever play in party's, GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!


    For all the whiners with nothing better to do, STFU, get a life and sell your 360, you don't deserve it......

    Wow out of the posts they made regarding DLC they never once mentioned anything about party teams only.

    They don't give refunds unfortunately, you kinda out of luck man

    Re: 3 modes for 10 bucks = rip off

    ROBOT's DLC is a failure.

    800 ms for 3 Game Modes

    Game Modes are very limited in who can play them

    Hardly anyone has them

    Hardly anyone asked for these.

     

    Simply put, this seems like something that should've come free with the last update.

    If you want to release good DLC ROBOT don't make anything that would divide the userbase. Flood DLC would probably be a top priority if I were you.

    Re: 3 modes for 10 bucks = rip off

    From what ive played, they are really fun.

    I love reienforcements. This is my fave game mode, i just love it. Im a bit unsure how it decides what units you should get, but its still really fun. Its heavily micro based.

    The capture sential is pretty good, but i think its the least fun of the three. I say this mainly because i nearly lost, so ill have to work out some strats. What i found was that i kept capturing the flag with nearly full pop vamps. The enemy was only making hornets, and yet they would run in, and kill my flag carrier and i would have to wait for a flag to come back, and they would hit and run again. Its still fun though, quite and interesting aspect of the game.

    The tug of war mode is fun aswell. Its a good game mode for all you turtlers. You can win without attacking....kinda, you must pull the bar all the way to you. If you have a nice ol turtle, and they attack you and lose everything, then you win because your meter fills up. for the more experienced player, alot of hit and runs are key to winning. Sacrafice weaker units in order to take out a high point tarket. I suggest infantry is a good part. I won a game by doing a huge attack, killing alot of things, and then spammed grunts to fill my meter and then hit their SP's. Won me the game, and it was satisfying.

    For those of you who are halo wars fans, then its good DLC to get. Im happy with my purchase, and i can see myself enjoying it.

    EDIT: I would of liked to see this free, but realisticly, it was NEVER going to be free, and we all knew it. As far as DLC goes, its a bit on the pricey side, especially for us english, but its still hardly anything. Ive spent more on lunch sometimes, so a days lunch for 3 gamemodes that will give me a good few hours on entertainment is a worthwhile purchase IMO.


    1v1 - 48
    2v2 - 50
    3v3 - 47

    Best player evar!!!1!

    Re: 3 modes for 10 bucks = rip off

    I agree 100%. This form of DLC should seriously be free. And if not, 200-400 points at the very most. Oh well, let's hope for some real DLC.. as in MAPS!

    Re: 3 modes for 10 bucks = rip off

    I'm a bit worried.

    If they're charging this much for game modes, what are they gonna charge for the two new maps coming out? More? Or are these game modes REALLY that great that they can be charged as much as new maps? :\

    The download is 2meg. Kinda feels like we're being asked to pay for content already on our discs?
