I'd love to see variations on the maps that they already have as a number of them give a lot of leeway for it to be possible. I'm talking consoles here, not pc.
Not sure if COD does it, but the pack also brings 10 weapons that can be used across all maps, not just the new ones, plus some assignments which kinda help to give your play style some variety while you complete them. Seems a fairish price to me.
"Make a map pack consiting of nothing BUT those maps"
"YOU ARE PROMOTED"
And I honestly find it hilarious that after all the CoD Vs BF3 shit, BF3 is now desperately trying to be CoD.
EA: Players can not seem to stop raving about how awesome Metro is!

Heh, so true. You buy into Battlefield for the exact opposite reason these maps are showing off.
@Emshumi
They have been getting around that since Battlefield 2 by calling their map packs "booster packs".
a) If you play BF3, then the next pack is for you (huge maps + vehicles), you aren't required to buy this one
b) If you don't play BF3, why are you even here?
Personally, I hate Metro as much as the rest of you, but the main problem with that map is the tunnel, which is most of the map, especially near the stairs that lead to the third set of mcoms. If these maps are built differently (multi-leveled apparently, already an improvement over Metro) and don't suffer so much from Metro's problems, I'd give it a whirl.
As for the people whining about how charging for the map packs like COD, you can choose to play on servers that don't require the maps which is great if you're playing with friends that don't have the new maps. This means you can consistently play with the same group of people instead of being drop into another game with new people you're not used to which could be terrible since BF3 is all about teamwork.
People need to lay off, they aren't trying to appeal to COD players, they are trying to give everyone a big chunk of gameplay that they want.
I'm stoked for the new assignments! They were a great addition and I was hoping we'd see more. Also can't wait to see this new Conquest Domination in action, loved CQ Assault... bring on the variants!
also, 1 map..........SERIOUSLY???
I don't want to be forced to play on "Random Douchebag X" server that has 1,000 tickets per side, Metro only, and is knife and rockets only. There hasn't been any Dice/EA servers advertising in my region when I check using server browser since the user paid server patch went online.
'incredibly close quarters'
'lack of destruction'
are you even trying to be subtle about copying COD anymore. I can't wait to NOT buy this and get the armored fury expansion pack. I just wish DICE realized what made BF3 suck (in comparison to EVERY other BF) was its shameless COD-demographic-gameplay copying
