Unattributed Quote:
Joystiq has received numerous reports from BioShock 2 players who have been unable to play the new multiplayer maps since purchasing the Metro Pack DLC last week. Elizabeth Tobey, senior manager of interactive marketing for 2K, has responded to this issue on the 2K forums. It's not a glitch, but a design choice: 2K has not yet created a DLC-only online multiplayer playlist.
Said Tobey, "We couldn't assume all players would purchase the new maps, so we made a design decision to unify the player base and make sure no one got split up." In order to play a new map in a public match, explained Tobey, all players in the match must own the DLC (obviously). If anyone doesn't have the DLC, the match automatically reverts to base maps. Tobey noted that the easiest way to play the new maps would be to set up a private match and indicated in a separate thread that the development team is considering the creation of a playlist exclusively for the Metro Pack maps.

MAY 19 UPDATE
Hey guys,
Here’s an update on the DLC fixes. Currently, we have begun work on making DLC playlists for every BioShock 2 MP mode. That means you will be able to choose from the lobbies currently available as they work now, or, if you own DLC, you can choose to play only the DLC maps with people who also have DLC maps.
We are also creating a fix so that people who Rebirth do not have their leaderboard stats wiped. Unfortunately, even after working with Microsoft and Sony, we are unable to restore your lost scores, however, we are expediting a solution to keep this from ever happening again.
As for timing, we are hoping to have these fixes to you in 4 weeks. It will take about 2 weeks to code the patch and 2 weeks to test and certify (if all goes perfectly, longer if there’s any hitches in the process.)
I’ll keep you updating as we move through these stages. You won’t be getting a daily update from me, but whenever something important happens, I’ll post it here.
Thanks.
-Elizabeth
