Question ABOUT New Maps (not about when :P)
If I had a dollar for all the "whens the DLC coming?" questions, I'd prolly be able to fund Hidden Path for the next 5 years, so I'll save you the grief :P As a big fan of TD games, Defense Grid is, like everyone else, on of my top favorite games; and much like everyone else who's beaten the game, got all golds for all challenges, and gotten every achievement available, any new material to replace that which has been conquered many times over is like a gift from god. I've played DG on the 360 (friend of mine got it), and I would have got it for 360 if it weren't for Steam and their ridiculous holiday bonanza they had on everything. I'm mostly a PC gamer as well, and never really liked RTS's and strategy games for the console, so for me buying it on Steam was the best choice in the end. Hearing that you guys are working on a DLC is very good news and can't wait for it :D But when I first saw that there were more maps beyond the stock 20 in the "Borderlands" map pack (which I only found out about 15minutes ago) and went searching for the PC download, my heart sank to find out it was for the XBLA release. I read through most of the posts about when the DLC is coming, and understand completely why the 4 maps were made for the 360 release, but along w/ the DLC are PC gamers going get the Borderlands pack as well, or are those 4 maps forever bound as an XBLA exclusive?? I haven't played any of the Borderlands maps myself, so having those come w/ the DLC for PC would make me that much happier (and I think everyone else who has it for PC will say the same). Since DG started out on the PC, I'd say it's only fair to honor the PC fanbase a bit more than the console fanbase; I've already seen the CoD: Modern Warfare franchise shun it's original PC fanbase in favor of consoles, would hate to make it 2 of my favorite titles that do so. Thanks a lot for creating the best tower defense game I've played in a very long time, and greatly look forward to the DLC and any other future releases :D PS: how do you space out paragraphs on this forum?? I've got 3 lines of space between them on the preview but it still comes out as a giant clump ><

Answers about new maps

We're hopefully going to have more to say about this soon. 

 

You are correct, today there are 4 extra maps on the Xbox 360 called Borderlands. 

 

In addition, a group of new maps is coming for both the Xbox 360 and for the PC crowd.

 

We're in testing right now of the update that will allow DLC on Steam.  As soon as that is through testing, then we'll have the ability to have downloadable maps on Steam.  That's the first step.

 

Stay tuned and I'm sorry for the wait.
