First AvP DLC Pack Out Soon
AvP Game News | Posted by Corporal Hicks on 08 Mar 2010 18:05 GMT

Sega has just announced details of their first DLC pack out for AvP:

“Two new Multiplayer maps for six different online modes (Deathmatch, Predator Hunt, Infestation, Species Deathmatch, Mixed Species Deathmatch and Domination):

Docks: The caustic alkali waters of BG-386 put an end to Weyland-Yutani’s planned shipping activities.
Machine: As well as processing exotic ores, the BG-386 Refinery provided electrical power to the colonists at Freya’s Prospect.

Two new Survivor maps in which up to four Marines battle to stay alive against increasing swarms of Aliens:

Outpost: The site of the original Weyland-Yutani colony on BG-386 was abandoned, and soon reclaimed by the planet’s voracious jungle plant life.

Hive: Deep in the heart of the Freya’s Prospect Refinery lays the Xenomorph Hive.

The “Swarm Map Pack” will be available on 18 March for €5.99/ £4.79/ 560 Microsoft Points.”

The pack, called Swam Map Pack, are the four levels released with the Survivor and Hunter editions of the game.

hahah niceeee the game could use the maps but they should patch it up a bit first :L :shocked:


Nite-Owl | 08 Mar 2010 18:51

Goddammit I still haven’t been able to connect to a single online match!


shrek | 08 Mar 2010 19:04

the games already dead……. waste of money really, shame


Ephemeriis | 08 Mar 2010 19:12

Hmmm… $5 for just four maps? That seems a little steep to me. And I wonder how the folks who bought the Survivor and Hunter editions feel about this.


Luke | 08 Mar 2010 19:30

They need to have a skin pack as well (predalien!), iv seen the docks map and its awsome. And again, there are just to many characters and breeds in avp for there to be like 5 skins for each spieces! Hopefully in the squel they will have some kind of upgrade thing to ad more depth to multi


Frizzlecat | 08 Mar 2010 20:03

Forget the god damn sequel, sort this one out first.


spinksy | 08 Mar 2010 20:14

awesome stuff. I got these maps with my hunters edition but my mates should be buying these.

More DLC please


Bugswarm | 08 Mar 2010 20:45

ok…….i see maps, thats a good start, now what about those horrible performance issues. Bug fixes, Tweaks, getting rid of ranked matches, auto unlock skins, etc. If they expect us to keep supporting them for a sequal, they better get this one right first. Cause we ain’t gona trust a company thats might be following the road MW2 is taking.


SableUk | 08 Mar 2010 20:48

Agreed, i think i speak for every true avp fan when i say, “sort the damn game out before creating these gimmicks”…


ThE DeStRoYEr57 | 08 Mar 2010 20:48

Ummm… :huh: I got the Hunter Edition and the new maps and the two new maps for survival are Machine and Hive, and the Multiplayer maps are Outpost and Docks. :grin:


Axlotl | 08 Mar 2010 21:02

Screw this. I’m not paying for shit that should have came with the game.


Axlotl | 08 Mar 2010 21:03

By default I mean.


smeone | 08 Mar 2010 21:48

tell them to send over mod tools with it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Azanode | 08 Mar 2010 21:49

@Ephemeriis: Personally I’m glad that there will be more people who own the maps so that I can actually play on them. I got the Survivor edition for the same price as Standard, so it’s all fine with me.


JediMasterGabe | 08 Mar 2010 21:50

About damn time! I got hunter edition but I’ve never even played those maps because no one else has them.

And can we please get damn host migration?!


Saemon69 | 09 Mar 2010 00:38

Thank you for the information avpgalaxy


Assburster | 09 Mar 2010 00:51

Im still not convinced i should drop money on this game, let alone DLC, I will also assume DLC pak 2 will include the extra skins from the deluxe as well, its great to have the content, but can you make it work right team rebellion? I want to buy this game dearly, show me you can.


Proj2501 | 09 Mar 2010 01:03

I have the Hunter Edition and Machine and Hive are so ridiculously small. Machine especially. You laugh when you finally see what a complete waste this is.

Levels, that’s it? Not a single skin. Lame.


JediMasterGabe | 09 Mar 2010 01:43

Well they better NOT come out with the pre-order skins, I pre-ordered for a reason.


CONKERSBADFURDAY | 09 Mar 2010 02:10

Four maps for 5$ seems pretty steep. I’m all for DLC and patches, but I want to get my monies worth with it.

Gonna have to wait and see with this one. The game needs more BIG maps to, and other comments seem to say these are small. That is a problem :\


Joy | 09 Mar 2010 03:03

So lame


Xenomorphine | 09 Mar 2010 04:43

They aren’t “creating these gimmicks”. It’s stuff on the special editions which is simply being released to public domain.


nudzi | 09 Mar 2010 07:30

The game already died and rebellion, instead of throwing free stuff at us to keep us interested, wants us to pay even more?
hilarious stuff.
shitty game, shitty gameplay, shitty multiplayer.


Anonymous | 09 Mar 2010 07:54

the game is boring, everything is broken and now we have to pay for some extra maps for survival? Only 2 maps for survival WTF is going on with the game industry.

We are desperate for AvP content, and they take full advantage of that. Wont buy the sequel at this rate, hoping for Colonial Marines and will forget about this company for good.


Bugswarm | 09 Mar 2010 09:18

fix the bugs and tweaks first, then talk to us about paying for stuff. It may be just an extra, but they way they are putting all these adverbs and announcements together makes them look selfish.


-Sharky- | 09 Mar 2010 09:52

LoL I got those skins with my Survivor edition (PC) :grin:


Fujimaster | 09 Mar 2010 10:37

I can play the MP game just fine? Might wait a few minutes to get into ranked but I dont get why so many people bitching about it being broken, WTF guys. I guess it just sux to be u.


Anonymous | 09 Mar 2010 11:02

ok ok look at it like this there not gonna put 3 skins with one DLC they know if they want us for a sequel they better start puting out the new species like predalien or runner skin and yes them not realesing the skins with this is bogas but look at it like this there not gonna put 3 skins with one DLC they are smarter than tat and stop complaining about DLC 5$ is better than 100$ now you tell me


Bugswarm | 09 Mar 2010 13:47

They still haven’t fixed the performance bugs you know~ Read about it people, it happens on specific PC’s that no one can find out why. Doesn’t matter who says what at this point, if the game does bad in sales, no more AVP from Rebellion. They will lose thier supporters and fanbois if the end product doesn’t show improvement over Seirra’s AVP2. Granted AVP2 has major balance issues and Graphics are pretty uninteresting these days, it still ranks top over any AVP games to date. If we don’t see another AVP from rebellion then we know why it didn’t happen.


IcEmAn1989 | 09 Mar 2010 13:58

Have any of you even considered that Rebellion might want to fix all of the issues at the same time? That why it takes some time


alpha defekt | 09 Mar 2010 14:24

Nope, people will still complain.


moo | 09 Mar 2010 14:32

this is preposterous. im baffled that they think we should pay for a few more maps.


bog113 | 09 Mar 2010 16:58

Interesting :cool:


nico_celtic | 09 Mar 2010 18:09

YeaH!! DLC! but cmon rebellion give us some skins!


IcEmAn1989 | 09 Mar 2010 19:05

Guess they will huh:( ah well i for one don’t care, already have all those maps so i have nothing to complain about;) to bad for those of you who did not buy hunters edition xD


alien5454 | 09 Mar 2010 20:12

Finally!


bILLY | 09 Mar 2010 20:51

They need to start paying the us for being their damn Beta testers. I like AVP but they sold us an unfinished game with more issues than a final release should have. Now they want to charge us for being Beta testers. I like the game but it needs alot of patching and moding before I will consider forking over money.


Corey1 | 09 Mar 2010 21:41

Buy it? lol…


skull-splitter | 09 Mar 2010 21:56

It should’ve been free from the start, and at the moment, the game isn’t in any shape to actually charge money for maps…


Anonymous | 09 Mar 2010 22:42

At least this game has less problems than Modern Warfare 2…other than that, I hope they plan on making bigger multiplayer maps. Maps for example on Infestation that make Marines MOVE around (like Pyramid) instead of staying in one spot all the time and have to resort to Rush Attacks by Aliens.

I have also said this countless times before, but I will say it again. LETS GET STRANDED BACK IN HERE FOR SURVIVOR!


stemot | 10 Mar 2010 00:13

Christ there’s a lot of whiners on here. Here’s an idea, if you don’t want to pay for, don’t buy it. Simple. Find something else to concern yourselves with.


nudzi | 10 Mar 2010 10:55

@stremot
that’s what we did, but thanks for the advice

The game is a dust collector for me now.


kaljo | 10 Mar 2010 13:42

Meeehhh.


SableUk | 10 Mar 2010 14:18

stemot, your advice is crap-
We have already bought it… it was bad…so bad… it hasnt fulfiled any of our expectations… “the ultimate multiplayer experience” was dull, repetitive, unpolished and over reliant on steam, it doesnt play direct x 10, the skins are clearly the same model, taking such short cuts is blasphemy in my eyes. Avp2 offered more of an arsenal for each species and that was a decade ago.This game sucks. To add insult to injury I cant even get my money back. Much like Nudzi, the game is a dust collector for me too. Cheers Rebellion.


Nuke | 10 Mar 2010 14:48

SPOILERS

If you don’t like a game you should return it


RidgeTop | 10 Mar 2010 18:28

Im surprised at how many are surprised that DLC is not free.


IcEmAn1989 | 10 Mar 2010 22:58

Don’t get it why so many people around here are mad cause they have to pay for DLC? Do you seriously believe that Rebellion or Sega will release that kind of stuff for free? come on get real. Not a single game developer with some common sense wold do such a thing:P so for the love of god STOP COMPLAINING!


Corporate | 11 Mar 2010 07:52

I agree with axlotl !!!


IcEmAn1989 | 11 Mar 2010 08:13

Axlotl that stuff DID came with the game you just bought the wrong edition as everyone else who complains about that:P talk about FAIL


NightCoaster | 11 Mar 2010 10:25

The DLC is pretty good Hunter was a waste of money i preorder mined just for the skins when i got it i found out thye dont sell the skins in Australia and now the maps getting released to the public. Thats a REAL WASTE OF MONEY!!!
