Look, we have a fairly refined and <em>nuanced</em> stance on how <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/battlefield-bad-company-2"><em>Battlefield: Bad Company 2</em></a> should be played: in Rush Mode.<br />
<br />
... Yep, that's it. But, we recognize that some people just like to do things <em>incorrectly </em>and, lucky for them, so does developer DICE. Cue: VIP Map Pack 3. The latest free download for all VIP members adds maps to Squad Rush and Squad Deathmatch -- specifically, Laguna Alta will become available in Squad Rush mode and Nelson Bay will become available in Squad Deathmatch.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://planetbattlefield.gamespy.com/fullstory.php?id=162388">Planet Battlefield</a> was kind enough to point out the DLC that, as you can see above, is visible in the <em>Battlefield: Bad Company 2</em> store. We'll let you know when you can download it.<br />
<br />
<strong>Update:</strong> Added clarification of source and removed the "sometime in April" quote, which never originated from DICE. Joystiq apologizes for the confusion and regrets the error.<br />
