I love this game but I am not mad on the multiplayer aspect, atleast not the gang matches ect.

This will be a 50/50 for me.

@Thorz Probably a no-sale for me. I loved RDR single player and was hoping for the western equivalent of Lost and Damned or Ballad of Gay Tony. Instead they whack 1/3 of the staff and grind out MP avatar & map packs.

Very disappointing.

It's worth keeping in mind that Lost & Damned came out close to a year post GTA4 launch & Ballad 8 months after that. That type of DLC is not going to be coming out this quick at all, but I would be willing to bet Rockstar is working on them.
What they are doing here in the short term is good, in my eyes, because they are addressing the Multiplayer which is VERY lacking right now.

I don't know; GTA IV DLC was clearly planned from the start, whereas RDR wasn't expected to sell well.

It seems there's new DLC every week for this, and people complain about Activision flooding the market with overpriced DLC....

Wait are you saying that this DLC is overpriced or it's too soon?

They have had only one DLC pack thus far (co-op missions) and it was free. I don't think we should scold them for that.

No, I don't care, I'm just stating how biased people are against Activision. There are supposedly four DLC packs coming out, one a month, it just seems excessive.

There have been FIVE Fallout 3 DLCs, I dont see your point?

But multi-player maps? How does that work in RDR? o.O

here is the difference:
* Nine new multiplayer map locations
* Eight new multiplayer characters, including some from Red Dead Revolver
* New projectile weapon, The Tomahawk, with corresponding multiplayer and single-player challenges
* New Achievements and Trophies

You get all of that for the 10 Bucks. Of course its a rip off, dlc should be free if it doesn't actually extend the story...But even for the price it's still better then Activision.

What did you get from activision for $15 bucks? 2 rehashed maps and 3 new ones...no new weapons, skins, etc. rip off!

RED IS BEAUTIFUL IN HD.
I was expecting Jack Swift, Buffalo Soldier and that girl who I can't remember right now. But good enough! Still buying these day one.

Whoops. It appears that the girl I was referring to is standing behind Red.

I LOVE this game. Multiplayer is really fun. I am especially fond of the co-op missions. I hope they make more of those. Have a good weekend Joystiqers!

I really enjoy the multiplayer with my friends, mainly just in private matches on our own. So, I'm not sure about this. A lot more interested in the Liars and Cheats pack. Multiplayer poker, OH YES! :D

Doesn't sound like they're adding any more co-op. No sale for me then.

/fanboy on

Griffin, buddy, can we get some equal rights in the price tag displaying? I think in this day and age saying 800MSP and then in quotes ($9.99) is a bit faux pas. Its clearly favoring one system over another, PS3 being the lesser, unimportant of the two because of the quotations.

Am i the only person that just flat out don't like the online play?
Someone wake me when there is single player content added for free

@ease No, I'm not digging online either.

I'm either being raped by spawn-campers, or spending 20 minutes at a time riding the entire map looking for something, ANYTHING to do.

It's too bad you can't use these characters in single player instead of the shitty guy you're stuck with at the game's end. Getting stuck with him really pissed me off.

To be more clear, I don't mean as an entirely new character, but to be able to use these new characters as re-skins of your character, like how you can change outfits.

Sorry, $10 is too much for essentially a multiplayer booster pack.

If my friends are still playing it when the price gets a sale price of 400 points, I'll jump on board - but likely we'll be knee deep in the new COD, Medal of Honor and Halo: Reach by then, so this DLC might never find a home on my console.
