I don't mind them giving extras to people buying the game.

THANK YOU! FUCKING THANK-YOU!

 

Somebody has some basic common sense in this thread *hugs*

If only it were you... since you don't seem to understand that the term "extra" is fairly meaningless in this case. 

Once again... you see it as a big difference that content is available online day 1 then the disc?

If I were to say release Uncharted 3... with the online mode as an "extra download" day 1... am i really giving people an extra?

Online mode is something that is a part of the game as a whole and therefore should be on the disc no matter what. I think companies complaining about used game sales is pathetic since good games are kept. 

But if this map pack would be DLC anyway and DICE decides to give it to me for free if I buy the game new, I see it as a win-win situation. It's not like I really miss out on something important if I buy the game used.
