Rock the vote for Bad Company maps

Rock the vote for Bad Company maps photo
     Electronic Arts

If you’re part of the gamer demographic that would like to vote for a national election, but can’t, EA has a brilliant opportunity for you. Starting today, Electronic Arts and DICE are hosting a fan vote to determine which two campaign levels in Battlefield: Bad Company will be turned into multiplayer levels. The voting ends September 2nd and access to the vote can be found here.

In addition to the two user picked maps, EA will also have two additional maps to tack on once the choices are made. These maps will be for the recently added Conquest mode and are going to be offered as free content.

Unfortunately, I’m not sure what “free” means to EA. If it’s “sign this to get spammed” then I’m already out before it begins. Luckily, Bad Company isn’t the greatest game to touch this Earth, so I don’t know if I’ll be missing that much.

Dear Destructoid,

The "z0mg EA is teh evil!1!!!" bandwagonning got old about five years ago. It's not cool anymore. Bad Company is a great multiplayer game and the dev team at DICE has basically tailored its continued evolution solely around community feedback and FOR FREE. If that's something that you think should be mocked instead of applauded, you can go fuck yourself on the hater-horse you rode in on.

Oh, and there's no registering at all to vote. All you do is click on which map you want in the poll. End of story. Great investigative journalism, Brad.

....Can you feel the love tonight?

Bad company wasn't bad. Free content is great. Stop being a stereotypical jaded cynic and congratulate them for not milking another 200 microsoft points here and there, like other games that release new maps(CoD4)
