While the core of the dev team here at DICE as well as all the back-end teams at EA are 110% focused on stabilizing the game experience we do have some other, great news to reveal. Today we’re happy to announce the release date of the second VIP map package for Battlefield: Bad Company 2! It will be made available on the 30th of March on all platforms at no extra cost to all of you who’ve got your VIP codes entered in the game. VIP Map Pack 2 contains the following:
Arica Harbor Conquest mode - US Command launches a break through action directly at the Russian base. Collateral damage is of no consequence. Capture and secure tactical positions in Conquest Mode across the vast Arica Harbor map.
Laguna Presa Rush mode - The valley and surrounding mountains possess a strategic value in the battle for South America, and an infantry assault supported by light armor vehicles is likely by both armies as US forces defend the nearby Dam. |

We never thought we'd have to slap a spoiler warning on a post about downloadable content for the Left 4 Dead franchise -- and yet, here we are. The latest episode of GameTrailers TV revealed an intriguing plot point about the pair of new chapters for the original game and sequel. We respect that some of you might want to remain in the dark about the DLC until you finally get your hands on it. For the rest of you, check out the details just past the jump.
In Left 4 Dead 2's "The Passing" scenario, it was assumed you'd encounter all four protagonists from the first game. Valve's Chet Faliszek revealed the tagline for this scenario is "Nobody Survives Forever" -- as you might expect from the title, one of the original quartet has sacrificed him or herself in the events preceding "The Passing," which will be the focus of the upcoming Left 4 Dead 1 campaign.
This sounds like it could lead to some pretty neat gameplay implications, though really, if we can make through a campaign and only lose one person, that's a pretty good day in our book. |
