yay i think people are starting to calm down

hopefully people are done freaking out about the playlist update being later than they had hoped for
there were problems they didnt plan on and they are trying to fix everything and get ready for the update what else can they do

That sucks... they could of atleast told us when the playlist and stat reset was going to update. They must be hiding something ;)

naa i really dont think they are hiding anything they just dont know exactly when they will and dont want to make up a date and end up having problems again and have everyone be disapointed again

but i also wish they knew when it was going to happen but it isnt like its a huge deal or anything for now matchmaking is working fine and thats all i need

All over the ship, dancing through the wreckage
of the Pfhor computer core,

DURANDAL WAS LAUGHING

I've been waiting since the day they came out and I finally got to download them...

I'm amazed at how awesome they are...

(can't wait till the beta...these'll hold me off until then...but wait....new gears of war maps are coming out today....well...i'll just play the gears maps until the mm update and then I'll actually start playing halo 2 (I usually only play split screen multiplayer (screen watcher) but with these awesome maps I'll be watchin my rank get higher....Bungie rules! :D) )

you said it was fixed for a significant amount of people, not most ,not even half, it couldve been any number of people. i still cant download them....*kills self*

  • 05.03.2007 5:20 AM PDT

Haaaaaaaaa! The number of people is "significant" now as opposed to "0.5%" which is what you were calling it a few days ago. Additionally, I haven't been able to download the maps and neither reason you gave for the problem applies to me.

How are you retards going to be able to release an entire game this year if you can't even allow for people to download 2 -blam!- maps for Halo 2?

It seems to me your the retard if you havent been able to download the new maps. I have downloaded them on 3 - 360's and 1 regular xbox with no problems. If you cant download a few maps off xbox live then I suggest finding a new hobbie

I GUESS I WAS LUCKEY IT WORKED THE 1ST DAY

  • 05.03.2007 8:10 AM PDT

"Go then. There are other worlds than these."

It finally worked for me on Monday. I have never had an account that was "underage" on either xbox and I didn't try to get them for free (unless clicking "purchase" with a valid credit card already in my profile was somehow an attempt to not pay for it?) so I'm not sure which one was the problem but it works now.

Thanks!

  • 05.03.2007 9:01 AM PDT

What is there beyond Halo 2 ?

Yep Same here , Purchase failed, please try again later
Well this is what it says with my buddy , not with me.
Has an old Xbox , its been saying this from the beginning, the donwload bar goes up immediatly and then you get that. We live in Belgium (if perhaps that could be any usefull info). Hope you guys find it soon.

And for all you mofo's that just keep complaining just stick it !!
You think the ppl at bungie arent working hard to get all this -blam!- fixed, or are you that naif thinking they dont do squat and just let us sit in our problems. Cmon ppl get real !
And also I find it very fair that they arent doing the MM update untill everyone can donwload the maps, and for all the crying babies that say otherwise , i bet you would cry your ass off if you werent able to download them. Just hold your horses and dont cry about the H3 update cause it only lasts 3 weeks, after that youll be playing H2 again .
And for all the other wankers , it aint like now that you paid 4 $ that youre financialy ruined so stfu.
Oh no i wasted 4 $ now i cant buy my new Porsche *sigh*

Just sit thight and wait, in the meanwhile go do something usefull in your lifes besides talking -blam!- to everyone...

Jrwill181: Yeah, clearly I'm the retard. It's too difficult for me to do the 5 seconds worth of cycling through the menu and then hitting the X button to try to download the maps. There must be a "significant" bunch of other "retards" (like me) based on Bungie's post who also can't download the maps.

I'm the retard and not you, even though you don't even understand the -blam!-ing English language well enough to know the difference between "your" and "you're".

-blam!- dumb@ss... Go back to recess and stop j3rking off to Bungie. I've had bowel movements more formidable than you.

  • 05.03.2007 9:34 AM PDT

"I see fire and I see flames. I see evil people strung up all in chains."

I had no problems on day one. 8am central time. All I had to do was put in my new card (bank card) since I got a new one after I paid for my Xbox Live renewal last fall.


It is irritating to not be able to play something new in matchmaking when we were originally told it would be ready last week. The loss of $4 is not the issue...its the fact that it seems to be the overwhelming majority (at least at this point) seem to have the new maps. A simultaneous update to MM and a fix for the remaining few people should not be a problem.

Unless Bungie is experiencing problems with the maps in a MM environment....then who knows.

I will agree, while I'm not terribly upset and pissed off, that the use of the word "Accelerate" when explaining the "quickness" of the OVERDUE update is a little absurd. Simply saying, "We are working on the MM update to get it released ASAP," would've been much better.

"Thank you so much for fixing the map download bungie, you're the best! ; )" ...please.

Bungie did nothing, their concern was for Halo 3, not the maps that Certain Affinity made. They did nothing, XBOX Live did.

STOP THANKING BUNGIE

Well, man, you clearly are a retard if you're trying to use the X button to download the maps or select anything on an XBOX.

Great news, and I can verify that it indeed fixed my problem. By the way, I found the post that some of us tried to download the maps for free, and that was "due to users trying to get the maps for free, etc...' a bit out of line.

When I clicked to pay for the map, i received a message that my CC had expired. So I updated my CC and proceeded to successfully download the map. 3 days later the maps disappeared off my Xbox 360....anyways, that was BUNGIE'S problem and error in the code...

Anyways, glad you all have figure it out.

If 51% of people couldn't download the maps then yeh.. i would say it is fair to make everybody wait till next week for the playlist update and stat reset BUT about 90% of us have the maps so i think they should just press there little buttons and roll the update out :) also.. i didn't see them holding the maps back? but i guess they didn't do tests...

  • 05.03.2007 12:19 PM PDT

I also had no problems downloading the maps, and would have never purchased them if I knew that the beta would be out by the time the actual update came out. What a scam.
