DICE: We don't ever want to charge for maps.

Oh yes. Its just got hotter in the world of multiplayer shooters.

According to CVG, a producer for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has stated they don't want to charge customers for new maps.


"We don't ever want to charge for our maps and insisted to EA that this attitude was crucial when it came to keeping our community happy and playing together," DICE senior producer Patrick Bach told Xbox World 360 magazine.

This comes a day after the Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus pack was released on Xbox 360, - the DLC that caused a few raised eyebrows due to its higher than average price.

He also added that Bad Company 2 will have "generous" amounts of DLC in the future, although he didn't go any further about what it might be. He also stated: "We're owned by EA but we're still very much DICE." - perhaps a jab at Activision and IW after their 'bust up' during the last month or so, which resulted in the loss of two high profile employees at Infinity Ward.


Here's hoping we'll get some more info on the extra stuff heading to Bad Company 2 in due course. Its apparent though, that they have keeping the community happy on the top of their do to list.
