ive tried to download the new maps countless times now.
i have already purchased them, but when it begins to download it jumps to a screen saying: "installation of content failed. see www.xbox.com for more support information".

i have done all the update stuff.
and so i am kinda confused.

why isnt it working?
(i have a regular xbox btw)

anyone have any ideas?

i think if bungie pays any attention to forums, they see that many ppl are having problems downloading the new maps. assuming that bungie knows from the countless forum posts concerning errors and ridiculous amounts of hate mail regarding desperate requests for instructions to fix download errors for the new maps, i consider it extremely unprofessional that they have not addressed the errors by now. even if they have no idea how to fix it nor even a plan to fix it, the bungie community still at least deserves that these errors be acknowledged. if they follow through w/their scheduled playlist updates in spite of the many loyal users who followed all of bungies instructions for payment but still couldnt downolad the maps, itll then become blatantly obvious that the maps ruined halo online for a lot of ppl as the # active players/day will plummet. all b/c a lot of ppls fav playlists wont be available to them b/c they will require new maps. WE DESERVE AN UPDATE ACKNOWLEDGING THIS MESS. EMAIL BUNGIE ABOUT THESE DOWNLOAD ERRORS AND THIZZ OR DIE.

Perhaps someone could clarify the way things work for me.

I own an Xbox and a 360. Additionally I have a fair number of friends, and we semi-regularly get together and play via system link. I'm the only one with an Xbox Live account - Xbox Live is simply not as much of a value proposition for Australians.

I understand that the new maps are locked to the box, but are they also locked to the gamertag? Can I only put them on one of my consoles, or can I put them on both if I buy them on both? Additionally and most importantly, can I use my XBL account on a friend's box to buy the new maps for tnem, and if I do that will they be able to play them without my profile being signed on on their box?

There doesn't seem to be a clear answer either way on this.

Tried to download the maps myself, got an "Unable to Download", so I try to make sure my details are correct, but I get a "unable to continue due to technical difficulties" message.

I then call up Xbox Support, they say they are having some issues, try tonight or tomorrow.

Would like to see some Bungie words on this.

I phoned up xbox live about Premium Purchase error, and they said they know about the error and are trying to fix it. She recommended that I just wait.. 1 day later and still isn't working. :/

READ THIS

XBOX original users: Wait a few hours; tomorrow at the latest. LIVE is currently undergoing an update that is prohibiting people from downloading the new maps. I called xbox and asked them myself. This update started yesterday, and I'm guess it will be done around 1-2 EST. I'm afraid I don't know if it's the same for 360 users.

Ya same here i called Xbox Support and i got some indian dude who told me to wait a few hours then turn my xbox back on, the thought of no xbox for over an hour was proposterous, I then proceded to call him foul words and throw the phone

Dude These new maps are tight!!!!I played both and I think that Tombstone is way better than desolation!!!1

Somebody please answer my question... If the reset have been happened and the new maps are in matchmaking can i download them after that for free on an xbox 360??

  • 04.19.2007 8:28 AM PDT

Credit Card valid...

Purchase Succeeded...

Installation FAILED!? ("Installation failed, go to www.xbox.com" and theres no info about it on xbox.com)

I tried looking for a corrupt file to delete, there wasn't one. I tried using the y x x lb rb x x thing to no avail. It DID charge the credit card so I damn well better get my maps.
