The DLC went live today.  I downloaded it and thought…gee this is sure is alot of money for what I am getting.  I played through and I was right.  The DLC is 2MB in size and its just different “modes” in the game.  This is the kind of DLC that gives DLC a bad name.  We should NOT have to pay to have capture the flag!  I am willing to pay for extra levels, extra maps, extra vehicles.  EXTRA modes that are built into the game regardless is something that should be free.  ANYWAY long story short DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS.

Wait until the Flood DLC comes out and they will give it to us for free!

On to the DLC – this is the Capture The Flag part of the DLC and its fun but only for a little while.  I just but out a simple strat for this one and I had to play the computer since I couldn’t find anyone online who had got the DLC.  Thankfully there are not that many stupid people out there.

Step 1:  Build warthogs and spread them over the map.
REMEMBER – Your not building up an army to fight the otherside.  You need to get the flag and geto to safety as quickly as possible

Step 2:  Grab the FLAG asap
Step 3:  Head to your base
Step 4:  Surround the flag with cover for the alloted 2 mins
Step 5:  Build an airpad for Hornets ASAP
Step 6:  Make the hornets your primary as soon as you can as it is the fastest unit on the map.

Thats pretty much it for Capture the Flag.  Sorry about my tone but I just don’t like getting ripped off and Microsoft did indeed rip me off today.
