I often see gamers complain the instant a season pass or DLC is announced for a game. Companies can sometimes be greedy with the way they setup their paid dlc, so it is understandable that this practice is often criticized by the gaming masses.
Now we have a company who is doing the opposite, in an industry-defying move, 343 has announced that Halo 5 will come out with 20 multiplayer maps on launch, and 15 more to be released via DLC by 2016, at no additional cost....that's right, no paid dlc maps so as to avoid splitting up the online community :)
Whether or not this is part of their road to redemption considering the launch difficulties of MCC, is somewhat irrelevant at this point. Barring any other announced surprises until Halo 5 releases, I find this news rather refreshing and a sign that they are doing their best to deliver an outstanding Halo experience. In a few months, we shall find out!
