There might be more than two.

Fixed. just because they say that doesnt mean they will.

There will be more than two.

"In Activision’s most recent conference call, Activision’s Publishing CEO Mike Griffith said that two map packs are planned for the upcoming Modern Warfare 2.

“We plan to launch two separate map packs for this title. Map packs help extend the shelf life of the franchise, as evidence by the strong catalog sales and premium pricing that we maintained a year and a half after launch.”

This led to some confusion that only two map packs would be released for the game. But now, Infinity Ward’s Robert Bowling is clarifying that statement saying that while only two maps are planned, there is still a possibility for more.

“As far as DLC goes, we love it and plan to support ‘Modern Warfare 2′ heavily with post-launch support. We’ve confirmed we’ll be doing AT LEAST two map packs which were announced at E3 as a timed exclusive for Xbox 360. The fact that we confirmed at least two map packs doesn’t mean there won’t be more; honestly we plan on shaping our DLC based on community feedback from the full game, and first two DLC map packs. Therefore, the community will really determine what comes after that.”

personally, i dont think the number of map packs matters
call of duty world at war sucked
call of duty modern warfare rocked!

COD WAW wasn't that bad. Singleplayer was great imo in WAW, and in MW, singleplayer was a dissapoint. It had its moments but WAW was better. Multiplayer was the same basically. (not counting zombies)

Re: Only Two Modern Warfare 2 Map Packs Planned

I would still buy it unless there are any other more interesting games out there. Can't think of anything else.

I doubt IW or Activision really care about 20-30 people, though. Or about the 10-20 people each we could influence. Or about the 10-20 people each of those people could influence....

Or the 717 here who said they wouldn't buy either if the price stayed higher, along with hundreds/thousands of others across the net with the same view.

Well thats a matter of opinion as i enjoyed and played WaW for far longer than i did CoD4 but i still enjoyed both of them.

I did enjoy WaW, but my clan as a whole did not. Our 28-slot WaW server stayed empty while our 20-slot CoD4 server was almost always hopping during the evenings PST.
I still play sometimes, and the clan(which has been together since about 2004 in one shape or form) has dropped the WaW server. We're only on the CoD4 server as a clan these days. It wasn't out of protest or any crap like that. We really tried to keep the server open, even though we were paying more money than it was worth. That was ultimately the problem. We were paying for a server that was never populated. So we pushed the slots back to CoD4..
I'm one of the latest additions to the clan, so I hold almost zero influence (except when it comes to news or technical PC stuff or admin advice or hardware advice). But if CoD:MW2 has requirements that are easily attainable form CoD4 specs my whole clan might shift to it. Of course, the price might be an issue. I doubt IW or Activision really care about 20-30 people, though. Or about the 10-20 people each we could influence. Or about the 10-20 people each of those people could influence....

Less map packs = more content in the actual game? Not likely. But we can hope for it

Hope so. I am choosing to remain positive with IW. saying that treyarch have won the war and are the only ones who can make a quality COD is a bit of a stretch (though I trust that WAW was really good too) IMO. I always thought the whole purpose of a game was to have fun not b!tch about the small things

*only has been highlighted to show that I am not a waw hater
