i dont consider map packs and expansion packs equal at all. although you could argue wether the BF3 expansions are just map packs or expansions, they are really more of a hybrid things, whereas you get a lot more content via Blizz expansions opposed to CoD map packs.
but you have to realize that companies need a steady income to be able to further support a game, be it through map packs, monthly fees, microtransactions or in this case the RMAH. its not just the servers, also employees who are continuously working on the game or server stability. i guess you think that all this is way easier than it actually is.
and of course they want to make some money out of this also. which will be, to a great extend, be used to make new games. i see nothing wrong with that. blizz is a company after all and not some charity for ppl who dont know what to do with themselves.
And also, Blizzard DO actually release map packs. For free too, look at all the WoW patches.
Last Blue statement is that they don't intend to add more content to the game, the game is done and only thing left on the development table is the PvP feature, nothing more is promised.
expect new maps to come in the form of an expansion or perhaps even dlc's with bnet currency.
Judging by the use of all caps I can safely assume are incapable of logical dialogue and probably can't form any sort of decent opinion on anything.

Also noticed a comparison to WoW. Let me make this short, OP you are an idiot, plain and simple. Please do NOT produce children, we don't need your DNA spreading; If you already have mated and spored, then may god have mercy on us all.
In your dreams maybe. No one uses Xfire except kiddies playing Shooters.
Obviously the majority has spoken that the OP of that thread was a moron.
I have never been ashamed of being a human until recently.
A fool and his money are soon parted.
You really are as stupid as your post leads me to believe.
You were likely also banned for posting what may very well be the most nonconstructive post I've seen. You should feel very proud/ashamed.
Get a life, get over yourself.

It was deleted because you probably used all caps, and judging by the fact that you make a point worse than a Kardashian keeps a boyfriend.
No one gives one shit if you stop buying blizzard games.
You aren't ready for that act.
Funny that I can progress just fine without buying gear.
But then again, I'm not lazy and farm my own gear.
