You can decide the fate of Modern Warfare 2's DLC (maybe) photo

Similar to previous statements made by Activision, Infinity Ward's Robert Bowling told MTV Multiplayer that beyond the two planned DLC packs, the studio will be looking for player feedback to dictate what type of Modern Warfare 2 add-ons we will get.

"If everybody's clamoring for more Spec Ops missions, then that's something we're going to look at."

Having DLC that isn't more multiplayer maps, as nice as they are, would be greatly appreciated. From what I have played of the mode so far, it's been mostly excellent. However, I haven't done any missions in co-op, which appears to be the whole point of Spec Ops.

Is it just me, or is anyone else getting a serious TimeSplitters vibe from the structure of the Spec Ops missions? It feels good, doesn't it? Uh ... no, you can't play as a monkey. I'm sorry I even brought it up.

More Spec Ops would at least give people who don't care about competitive MP a chance to experience the game past the initial story. And don't try to say that no one exists who doesn't enjoy MP, I know plenty of people.

I demand a Spec Ops mode where you have to disarm monkeys. Instead of grenades, they fling dookie.

IF YOU CAN'T PLAY AS A MONKEY THEN I DON'T WANT IT!!!

Seriously though, I've only scratched the surface of SpecOps, and I can already tell that having more missions for it would be awesome. However, it's unfortunately true that the vocal majority is only going to want more multiplayer maps.

they are clearly just going to do both whatever anybody says. If they weren't sure people would buy into the Special OPs they wouldn't have included it in the first place.

Can we get them to make Timesplitters: Future Perfect compatible with the 360?
I know Infinity Ward didn't make that game, but they're freaking rich. They should be able to make something happen.

Activision could try to stay in the news cycle and release Fort Hood DLC. Normally I'd say this is way too tasteless to do, but...this is Activision.

Spec Ops is brilliant.

Playing spec ops is a sure fire way to test your patience and friendship with someone.

Do the same that Treyarch did... More maps and 'Spec Ops' every piece of DLC. Don't fuck it up like you did with COD4. Dicks.

Activision will be in control of the pricing. So an almost definitely they will charge for them. I doubt nVidia want to lump too much into a game that the online communities have shown nothing but hate for with their online handling.

The coop specs Ops stuff is so far my favorite part of this game, I think. It's a blast!

More Spec Op missions and maps for multiplayer would be nice. One thing that I would want though is more single player missions, or at least continue off from the ending. While I admit the ending is pretty epic (even though to a extent is a QTE cutscene) was pretty good. There is one more thing I wish we could of done in the single player campaign. Those who played the game might know what I am talking about.

Here, we go... 4 player Spec Ops Missions.

Thats all I ask, me and my 3 good friends mowing down Tangos. Brings back memories of Terrorist hunt from Rainbow Six games...

Party Chat. Disable my ability to talk to people on the other side of the dead/alive bridge, or people not on my team, sure. But please, oh please, do not require me to mute everyone else in the world just because I want to talk to my friends while I'm playing this game.

Personally I would like them to put dedicated servers on the PC version.

More Spec Ops missions would be AMAZING! If you have someone to play with, Spec Ops is easily the best mode of the game (yes, better than online multiplayer).

You know, now that you mention it, I totally get the TimeSplitters challenges vibe from it.

I spent hours making Assault maps with the Timesplitters map editor. Its a real shame the PC version of MW2 doesn't allow custom maps. Not that I could make one myself, I just would have loved to have seen what people came up with for Spec Ops.

I played Spec Ops for almost 2 hours before I touched single player.

Spec Ops is hard, but fun.

Spec Ops is awesome. Went through the Alpha batch of missions on Veteran with a friend on Wednesday, good times were had.
