No, there are no new weapons or perks in the Download pack, only 5 new maps, 2 of them are back from the old "Call of Duty 4".
its possible that they are only going to make map pack's, not new weapons or perks.
No there were only two stimulus and resurgence
This confused me for a second, but I got the answer. The resurgence is only a map pack for the online multiplayer, not campaign.
The PSN update is around 6PM EST. Be patient.
I believe it is in mid-June for X-box, not entirely sure though. There is a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - Resurgence Pack released June 3 2010 for the PS3 and Xbox 360 for the second Map Pack. see related link
Stimulus Package, "Resurgence Package" though they are far from being new now
The PS3 Stimulus Package and Resurgence Pack are purchased from the Playstation Store and Modern Warfare 2 was $30 when I purchased it from Amazon last January 2011 actually December 28 2011 and is 36.99 there now and 39.99 at Gamestop before taxes. Both the Stimulus and the Resurgence Package are $14.95 and not part of a game special bundle and only the Xbox 360 DLCs are available at Gamestop for digital download purchase
I have heard that the new stimulus map pack for the ps3 will come out a month later than on the xbox 360 which is around April 30th The Resurgence Pack is coming out about a month later than xbox360 and xbox360 comes out June 3rd.
I do not know, but I ran into the same problem last night after I downloaded the resurgence pack. I could not find any of the new maps on free for all...... Wish someone had some insight into this.
There is no current release date for the modern warfare 2 map pack.
Two different map packs were already released the Resurgence pack on June 6 2010 and the Stimulus on May 4 2010
Yes there are 16 maps but the 5 extra maps in the stimulus pack and the 5 in the Resurgence pack are in addition to those 16. See related link for the names and a detailed description of the maps including those in the map packs
As you play regular matches, when you play matches with a map pack purchased, you are allowed to play that map in private matches and other game modes.note: you do not always verse people on that map it will also be other map packs or maps which do not require purchase.
