You know when there are those surreal moments and you're not sure whether you're dreaming or not. I literally just had one of those moments. What triggered this lucid state was a blog post on DICE's Battlefield blog, titled, "How to avoid “mapathy” without paying!"
The blog post was obviously a little tongue-in-cheek reference to Infinity Ward's recent map pack announcement for Xbox Live and in the blog post, DICE announced that they were releasing their second VIP map pack for free to VIP members.
The map pack will quite simply bring Conquest mode to the Arica Harbor level, whilst at the same time giving us another Rush map, this time, the Laguna Presa. Two maps already on the disc, but tweaked for the two classic modes.
To get access to the VIP member's area with free content like this, you need to have either purchased the game brand new and inserted the code, or purchased the VIP pass from the in-game store.
I assume this is more of a jokey vibe to the IW reference, rather than a malicious and competitive jibe. You know, because Swedes are usually fun loving people. Plus, it's not how DICE rolls... is it?
The second VIP map pack for Bad Company 2 is coming March 30th.
