Resurgence map pack out June 3rd

Activision has announced that the Modern Warfare 2 Resurgence Pack will be released for Xbox Live users on 3rd June.

Inside are five new maps, although they're not named.

To celebrate, Infinity Ward will host two double-XP weekends either side of release: one on Friday, 28th May and Friday, 4th June.

There's no mention of price, but Resurgence offers the same amount of content as the Stimulus Pack, which cost 1200 Microsoft Points (£10.20/€14.40).

The Stimulus Package was exclusive to Xbox Live for 30 days, and the Resurgence Pack is likely to follow that example before appearing on PC and PS3.

Rumour is there will be two cod4 maps returning, Shipment and Vacant, Shipment with the new killstreaks would be ridiculous imo.

Hope I've my Xbox back by then. If not I'll be buying a new one. I missed out on the last double XP weekend so want to make thorough use of these two.

5 new maps? Interesting. No COD4 remakes?

Edit. Just saw your edit to say that Shipment and Vacant might appear.

Creasy_bear · 13-05-2010 03:06PM

great , once again paying for maps that I'm already sick to death of playing

Thanks for the info anyway

krudler · 13-05-2010 03:11PM

ps3 in July then?, suppose thats still a good bit away. Dunno if I'll buy another map pack though

....ah who am I kidding...

Enigma IE · 13-05-2010 03:16PM

Shipment would be beyond ridiculous on MW2, unless they disabled killstreaks on that map. Really liked Vacant on COD 4.

Shammy · 13-05-2010 03:18PM

Looking forward to shipment tbh

Not pressing the prestige button till double xp weekend.

shay · 13-05-2010 03:19PM

And I'd only decided to stay on level 5 prestige! I'll be fecking tempted now...

Creasy_bear · 13-05-2010 03:37PM

VACANT
SHIPMENT
DC -White house
Abandoned
Revolt

These are 2 of my least favorite maps in mw. I wanna see Creek or Chinatown, way better maps than Shipment.

No place to boost on that one .

No killstreaks/Deathstreaks/noobtoob's/HB Sensors/ etc.

Basically what you would find in MLG matches etc. Just you and your gun against the other guy and his gun.

you know thats a fcuking great idea, no perks,no streaks, no whinging, no bitching. think hardcore but stripped down even further. everyone on equal ground, I wouldnt mind a few games of that.

everyone wouldnt be on equal ground though ........thats the problem

IW? I wouldn't think so. Treyarch? Possibly.

But it would just be a new playlist gamemode. So in the same way that you can play Moshpit or Ground War which are random games of different modes, you can have BareBones to select from as well.

Treyarch are asking the community for suggestions now, and are going to launch a beta also before full launch. So they seem a huge amount better at listening to the people who buy their game. Pity they weren't allowed the Modern Warfare franchise from Activision...

Why not? Unless you mean unequal by skill?? No painkiller-commando combo's to worry about. It's simply who's the better player.

Shammy · 13-05-2010 04:46PM

You can do it , private matches

Creasy may be referring to the host often having an advantage.

shawpower · 13-05-2010 04:49PM

Yeah, simple way to fix that too. Dedicated hosts. Just like EA did with BFBC2. It would mean Activision spending some money, so it's unlikely, but it'd be nice...

Can you imagine how good a game MW2 would be, played barebones on dedicated servers?

IW promised Bare Bones will be DLC in COD4. They promised Bare Bones will come with release in MW2.

I've all but given up at IW giving us Bare Bones.

Hope Treyarch will listen to the fans and give us that mode. I live in hope

So, a MW2 remake of a CoD4 remake of a CoD1 & 2 map? Man that's a confusing thought..

Hey, why not. If we're gonna have to pay for old rope it might as well be good old rope.

What really annoys me is that iw are teasing out the old maps in drips to bulk up their map packs and justify the inflated cost. We've already bought and payed for cod mw, at least give us the old 18 remaining maps for a premium and leave it at that.
