Lately I've been having trouble downloading custom maps and gametypes from B.net. Yes, I'm all linked up to my account so that isn't the problem. It's just that I click the "Download to Halo 3" button.. it says it's queued for download... I turn on the 360... and it never downloads. I'll often have to go back and do it again just to get it to work properly.

What am I doing wrong here?

It's rather frustrating to find a bunch of maps I want to play on, only to have to come back and search thru them again just to get them on my machine.

And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

I've had the same problem a couple of times actually.
Probably just some data loss when the system handles the large amounts of data. Your request to download the map/gametype etc. basically just gets lost among all the other requests.

This is just my assumption though.

Well, I finally got some stuff to download today... after trying it twice beforehand.

on a side note, it's nice to have this fall all the way down the page because some Junior Moderator Wannabe decided to bump a bunch of threads in order to toss his two cents in.

If you're referring to me, I'm sorry. I didn't realize that I'm not allowed to post. I'll never do it again your lordship.

On Topic, as the guy before me said. With the sheer amount of requests that Bungie's Servers receive, requests are sometimes lost.

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

Your motives do not take priority over those of others. Please try to be cooperative, not competitive, in this community.

Yes, you were the bootlicker I had in mind when I made that comment.

I don't have issue with other people having their questions answered.
But when the person posting a response in the thread is doing so in a transparent attempt to make themselves look "moderator-worthy", it gets on my nerves.

Why in the heck do you seem to think I'm trying to make myself look Moderator-worthy? Assumptions are the mother of all screw-ups.

Anyway you're posting in the wrong Forum, all troll posts should be posted in the Halo 3 Forum. Thanks!
