Well its official now, those 4 extra characters are dlc.

Now when i saw the steam downloading tag i nearly shat myself with joy, the ak-47, katana and m79 thumper were about to be MINE! instead I met the sad sight of this update, a few bug fixes and some DLC. hooah for bug fixes but i personally though TWI was a company that would never touch DLC, before i blew my headgasket i guessed i should atleast see what this DLC would run me; the answer 1.99$. which is all that bad, 2 dollars for 4 characters, means your paying 50 cents each, that isnt exactly rear end enlarging. It does however look like one of the characters is wearing a special suit of body armour (read steam page), is this just for show, or does it actually offer better protection? as much as i begrudge any company to produce DLC, Il really loose respect for them when DLC is anything more then aesthetic.
So what are the views of everyone else here, Im sure some people are probably a bit miffed, the few other threads about these characters ,before it became official they were DLC, had many people saying things like "twi would never give us DLC, never!".

Just a suggestion: TWI, release some nice promo shots of the characters. They're REALLY different than the normal "Soldier" skins and getting some exposure for 'em out there would really encourage folks to take a look at 'em. I knew I'd get it as soon as I saw the 'armor' skin in-game!

The update is nice too...the chainsaw looks absolutely beastly now...

I really like the soldier guy until my gf said he had boobs... I disagree but she wants the Biohazard suit guy so whatever, that's $4 from both of us.

I've had bad experience with DLC, mainly from EA, but this is the way to do it. Purely aesthetic and doesn't impact gameplay at all, completely optional but pretty awesome.
