Keyboard and mouse-powered Big Daddies, listen up – 2K’s dropping the Metro Map Pack DLC, Zigo and Blanche’s Character Pack DLC, a freebie Kill ‘Em Kindly game mode, and – perhaps mostly importantly – a massive bunch of fixes today.
Tagged at 800 MSP (or $10, or around R70 or so in local cash), the map pack includes six new multiplayer maps, a rank increase to 50, three new Achievements, and something called a “Rebirth” feature which is more or less exactly the same as the Call of Duty Veteran feature, but with a totally special commemorative mask because you’re totally special like that.
Zigo and Blanche’s Character Pack, shopping at 160 MSP, presumably includes characters. Probably one called Zigo, and one called Blanche. They don’t pay me enough for these astonishing feats of prognostication.
The Kill ‘Em Kindly game mode, free to download, is a sort of free-for-all deathmatch, but with all the weapons swapped out for golf clubs, the way the good Andrew Ryan intended.
And then, there’s the patch. No it doesn’t fix the stupid DRM, but it does fix all this stuff instead:
Fixed MP freezing and connectivity issues
Implemented color-blind friendly hacking UI.
Fixed further issues related to HUD stretching.
