instead of whining just reserve one of the special editions for yourself. there is PLENTY OF TIME.
Plus it's fair business. those who are willing to pay for the more pricey editions deserve those extra maps.
Anyone who wants to experience AVP at its fullest selection day 1, will buy one of the two special editions.
I remember almost everyone on Metal Gear Online bought the expansion maps cause they knew they would miss out on the full selection if they don't have the maps the others do.
The game shouldn't be limited just because some are too cheap to fork extra cash for the maps,
when the maps are DLC, people will have to buy them anyway. It's how normal business works. You
get what you pay for.
Some may argue that those maps should be on the disk, but whatever the reason, the fact still stands
that if you want those maps, you are better off buying a special edition. Simple as that. 
The community will not be destroyed because of this, on the contrary, it gives the game immediate room to expand in map selection and therefore multiplayer variety for those willing to buy a special edition. So overall the people who buy into it will have extra fun.
Seriously, it's been about 10 years since AvPGold, it wouldn't hurt to pay 80 even 100 dollars on a game
that will last for a long time online. If you don't think the maps are worth that much, then no one is forcing you to buy those editions, but if you really into multiplayer those extra maps are a must for any
true AVP gamer fan.
