None of those things was presented before, just a weapon and maybe some map in some ad, everything else are news from the last direct. We knew nothing about tower control and rainmaker until the direct, and nothing about the competitive matchmaking options, those are news to us, not promised content that is not going to be at launch, no. Everything that was promised is IN the game, but now we know there´s even more coming very very soon for free, it´s actually a plus.

I'm sorry but what are you arguing here? Someone said that reviewers shouldn't deduct points for the missing stuff that's supposed to come post launch and I said that they also shouldn't add points for it and that they should instead review the game for what it is at launch. Why are you telling me what's been promised at launch and what hasn't been? The conversation was specifically about the post launch content.

My point it´s pretty obvious. The game is actually finished, critics are not going to see the coming stuff as something that should be on the game, but as something that would make the game even better than what it is, and that is something that could lead to better scores. If you have 5good maps and 8 more are coming, you can easily predict that those are probably going to be good aswell and not to make a big deal about the low number at day 1. The new online modes can not be scored, but is promising and a clear sign of a game with a very long life and a great value per dollar, that leads to better scores too.
