...only wanted to buy one of the 5 add-ons that came out, which one would it be?

From what I gather, Broken Steel and Point Lookout seem to be the best ones or the ones with the most value for money. What say you, bf2s? I know some of you have all 5 or have the goty edition so you'll have played all five already.

Broken Steel is probably the longest, and will give you most stuff to play with.

Yeah I had a feeling it would be Broken Steel, especially because it actually continues the main storyline and lets you get all the way upto level 30. I've also heard it gives you the hardest challenge. I'll probably go ahead and buy BS. I hope they've gone cheaper on the PSN store by now

Also with BS you don't have to start a new game right, I'm going through a second playthrough right now, doing everything properly, trying to collect all bobbleheads and shit and do all the missions, I'll be pissed off once I finally do the last mission and buy/download Broken Steel only for it to say I need to start a whole new game. I doubt they would do something so stupid, but you never know.

You don't have to start over with any of the expansion packs.

Just don't start the final mission before it's installed and you should be alright. I tried it with a save right before the ending and it didn't trigger the DLC.

I'll probably go ahead and buy and install once I've reached the Pentagon for the first time

Yea get Broken Steel.

Doesn't matter when you install it as long as you do so before the last mission.

Even if you do play the final mission, the autosave starts right before you go into the ending sequence.

Broken Steel was the first one I got. I would say go with that one. You won't really get too much fancy locales like outer space or different cities, but for me it was mainly to raise the level cap and get some new perks. I remember playing through the game before and not finishing everything once I hit level 20. I still hit level 30 before finishing everything, but at that point there were just a few things left to do anyway.
