Agree. It's seems like an obvious inclusion but this was also what I was really hoping for. I'd like it to be a free add on, and maybe just maybe, it'll make the buy worth it for me XD Of course that assumes anyone is still around to even try the game mode with 
Right now the game is still fifty and the season pass is still thirty, not worth it for me. Plus, what else can we expect in this season pass from a gakky game?

I actually hit the yellow triangle and started typing, then decided bugging a mod over a typo is dumb, even if it's annoying me, so I reloaded the page instead.
I can only imagine how they're going to come up with post-release content for the season pass. I have to think they'd want to cut their losses and move on.

Had the chance to give the Bug Hunt DLC a try just now. Colour me surprised, it's pretty damn good. Not €15 / $15 good, but still really good and again, something that should've been in the game for free from day one really. Nice big maps, ever increasing difficult waves of enemies (both bug and Wey-Yu sadly) and well, good fun.

I'll probably pick up Bug Hunt when it's $1.99, or when you can buy all 4 of the DLC's for $10, whichever comes first. I think I need Bioshock Infinite to cleanse my palate of this before I can even think of revisiting it.

Liking Bughunt, the costs for opening some doors could be lowered, it's really tough to save up for opening them AND keeping ammo / health up. got to wave 20 something last night, and I think I had no ammo bar pistol for 5-6 waves in a row a few times.
£8k is alot to save up while trying to live and shoot.
Stil love it though and glad it surprised with being fun.
Now they need to make a mode where you team up as a team of 6 marines and work your way through levels to end objectives, allowing 1-2 smartguns / flamers for the team to pick up to add some interesting plays.
It could be like the aliens film / some of the single player with multi routes to places, objectives needing done and supplies along the way with possible turrets able to be setup for command centre setting up so players can link into things.

I hear you, I played a few times and when one player doesn't share some of his cash to further the game because he wants THE SMARTY GUN it can make the rounds really painful. Even more hilarious is when the little witch gets the smart gun, goes off on his own, threat level at 155%, gets downed at the other side of the map, then rages at us for not leaving the safety of our sentry guns to revive him. But yeah, the cost of opening doors and blowing obstacles should go down a notch, it makes it really hard to hang on when you need to rely on your sentries when some f*cknut used up all the ammo and health stacks carelessly.

Bug Hunt looks fun, but I wouldn't pay for the DLC. It really should have been on the disk in the first place, and I feel bad enough giving Gearbox $60 for this tripe.

And frankly this new game was getting terrible reviews. I'm always pretty skeptical of Gearbox Software.

I might buy this game now. The patch looks like it's really fixed most of the problems from the initial release.
I will admit that I'm very forgiving of games, and I have no problem with problems as long as they're fixed/easily fixable.
Multiplayer looks great fun too.

It's possible there won't be anymore. The Wii port was cancelled. Sega might have given up all hope (maybe).

the three pounce one, the crushers one and 2 others I HAD to get private game and friends in to achieve, they are literally some of the damn most annoying to try to complete achievements I've done... in normal games I found it impossible to get 3 in a row as you jump on guy and rest kill you.
Still loving the game even if it is considered bad, always on look out for more poeple to play through with.
Re the DLC i' hopeful for the campaign one to come out, it may not be next though as it could be some skins or another map type or maps for current types, but I'm guessing it will come out after that one.
