As I try playing optimatch or whatnot I keep getting this message saying that I don't have the maps, I know I don't but without maps I can't play? seems ridiculous that without buying something they take away something else that I paid for... Is there any solution

Play the few other matchmaking playlists that don't require the new maps such as Double Team. Or just buy the new maps. I know it doesn't seem fair but that's just how it is.

Woah dude, calm down, I know it's only $4 but I actually don't have any money on me, just spent my $50 on a prepaid live card... which I now hear that I would have to enter a cc just to buy the maps when getting the prepaid card was bought in an attempt to bypass entering a credit card.

I am having the same exact problem, but I do have the maps. There was an error when I first bought/downloaded the maps, so I re downloaded it.
But then at certain points during the matchmaking, there's an error and quits out then i had to re-try. And i never played any new maps in matchmaking.

Ever since that update (that returned my score to zero) I am stuck just like End3rz, but without the none purchased maps.
