Warhawk expands in December with new maps, dropship

I'm interested in this game. How is the community holding up?

Great if it's free.

its a awesome game ill pay 5.99 go ps3!!

This game looks interesting, hope it comes out for XBLA or something.

I'd buy that for a dollar!

Normally I'd expect content like this to cost something. The thing is that warhawk launch went very rough. The stats didn't even keep track for me the first couple of weeks, then people were getting ranked up randomly. I know these problems are sadly kinda normal for online games but still, they took an awful long time to correct them. By the time they made this truly playable, COD4 was right around the corner. Even though that had some problems( it could take forever sometimes to connect to games), it seemed like they fixed it immediately.

Basically I'm hoping that this little "booster pack" as Dylan calls it is free. I remember him saying a while back that they had a surprise gift for us in store for being so patient. I don't think anything came of it so I'd hope this was it but I really doubt it.

A question to the people still playing it... Does CTF still consist of about 90% of your team camping at your base so they can get points from returning the flag?

Answers to questions:

1) The community is holding up really well. There are usually between 250-500 servers active during the week depending on the day.

2) I haven't seen anyone continue the trend of "camping the base" to get points on returning the flag. Mainly because any team that still does this gets trounced by the other team effectively running all over them because they've holed themselves up in a corner and usually get blasted to death and its a complete shut out.

3) Chris: This is a Sony Santa Monica Studio game which was made by Incognito...which is owned by SCE. The chances of this ever coming to XBL is 0.0%

4) Night time warfare? Heeellllll yeeeaaaahhhhh! Should make some interesting situations and if they add night-vision for sniper scopes.....ohhhh....that should prove to be interesting as well.

Maybe in the next update they'll include weather effects in the new maps as well. Like...snow/rain/hurricane or something.

Just a few bits of information regarding the update. The Dropship only appears on the -LARGE- versions of each map. Medium and Small maps usually dont have tanks or homing missle turrets so dont expect the dropship to appear on those maps.

Also, the expansion pack is supposed to hit along with the 1.2 version of Warhawk so expect a patch along with it. This patch deals with alot of issues people have been having and the most important glitch fix EVER. The dreaded "invisible tank" bug which makes opponents tanks invisible on the map.

Nice, I'm looking forward to this!

I wouldn't pay for the expansion. I just didn't like Warhawk... but then again, I didn't like Battefield either.

Back to COD4...

Awesome, I still jump on a few games here and there and it seems that there are still plenty of players.

I'd pay up to $10 for the pack ($5.99 would be nice, but not realistic), since it sounds like they did a lot of work. 5 maps, and don't forget that 5 maps on Warhawk=15 different maps (3 sizes).

I'll be on the lookout.

I play this game quite a lot still. I can't get enough of it as it is one of the most addicting multiplayer experiences I have ever had and one of the best games on the PS3's now impressive library. I know I am not alone in this either. This game is highly underrated! I will pay whatever they ask for (considering it almost doubles the map count and the dropship sounds amazing) but would be more than happy with the $9.99 to $14.99 range.

I loved me some warhawk, but now that CoD4 is out, I'd rather spend what little free time I have on there (or playing ncaa08 since i've got college football fever)

This is the only game I play on PS3, and I'm looking forward to the expansion, which I believe should be free.

I would love it to be free but I'm betting it'll be $5-$10 range.

i would pay anywhere from 0-10 dollars but if unreal tournament is also coming out in december i rather buy that cause unreal is so much better imo.

I wish they'd added KB&M support for this game. I love the warhawk controls, but I just can't get used to an FPS with an analog stick.... I don't know how all the Halo fanboys can stand it. Auto-lock-on helps some, but it's still agonizing to walk around like that when you're used to Quake 3 style lightning-fast and accurate maneuvering. Still, four player split screen is a hell of a lot of fun.

You should not be happy to pay $10 to $15 for the content regardless of what game or system it is on. People like you are the reason that this type of thing, which is economically given away on PC, can be sold at 20% or more the full game cost.

$5 or less, otherwise you are getting ripped, imo. This is not a knock against Warhawk. I have a 360, enjoy Halo 3, and there is no way I'll buy their pending $10 DLC. And Halo 3 is 3x the game Warhawk is.

I'd pay up to $10 for this, but $5.00 would be perfect. I can't wait--Warhawk isn't just one of the best games on PS3, it's one of the best games I've ever played.

I would probably be willing to drop a $20 on this, but no more than that please. Just because there is a lack of PS3 games doesn't mean Sony should charge an arm and a leg for the good ones.

I'll definitely be buying this. The night-time map will be awesome along with the new dropship.Can't wait till this comes out.

this is the only game that makes me want a ps3. i need money

Update a campaign mode, at least a practice mode, damit

5-10 bucks for this sounds right to me and i will definitely be getting it!! this game is addicting and entertaining, i haven't been able to play any other games besides this. To the guy who said gaylo3 is 3x this game is on crack......this game is way more fun and has more to offer i personally know people who after playing this find gaylo3 boring including myself, cause i used to play it before this came out and now i scoff at it!! puyaaaa halo 3!!
