No wonder more people are buying WII's. Everyone is tired of Microsofts B.S. lies and excuses about releases and the ongoing red ring of death issue.

We are not currently aware of any plans to release the Legendary Maps for free.

Tell me you at least have plans to make them required for some of the REAL playlists. I hope you understand how badly people want this. How many people here already had the Heroic pack (paid you - you're welcome) and absolutely could not wait for it to be free so we could actually play them in <insert favorite playlist here>. By the way, why not make them required for ALL playlists once they are free.

Anyway, if you also have no plans to make them required for the tried-and-true playlists, I will do my best (using all willpower) to NOT buy the Legendary map pack. I am dying for Avalanche, but if you're telling me it may never be required for BTB (or whatever), then what am I really paying for? 6v6 objective, 4v4 slayer, or weekend-only stuff?

I guess it just falls back on the way you handle the DLC in the playlists for Halo 3. In theory, it's a good idea to not divide the user base by not making the DLC required for some of the original playlists, but in reality, it doesn't seem to work out well for the players who paid for the DLC. Quite simply, if I am paying for it, then why do the people that don't pay for it get to ruin my fun? Shouldn't you be catering to the players that are still willing to pay you money?

Mistah Yoshi!!!

I am sad, I waited this morning to download the maps only to find out that it is still not free!

this reminds me of when I waited all night to register for the halo 3 beta to register but didn't get in come spring time....i.e. my time was waisted staying up such as waiting till 2am for the heroic map pack....now its 8am and I still haven't gotten the maps.

-_-...

I blame M$....

Well, I'll have to say, I've had my xbox for well over a year and then experienced that problem about 3 months ago, but they were really cooperative fixing it. They even sent me a new one. However, since that 1 problem, I've had nothing but problems (mainly with the licenses). But as for the B.S. lies and excuses, yeah, let's burn the ***ing place down!

I agree, like a weekend of the Legendary Map Pack... HALF OFF. Yeah, right... that's gonna happen. It would be nice, though.

I agree, i have been checking several times throughout the night, just normal M$, "we will release them now, actually we changed our minds, it will be in a week... we will release them when we F*****g feel like it ok." the same thing they do with everything

thornhill32, I agree. I had to have my system replaced in November for the ring of death. Got it back in about 3 weeks. It was a refurb, but I can't complain cause it works better than my old one did (only lasted 9 months). But it took almost 4 months to get the license issue resolved so I could use my downloaded content offline. Hopefully they can get your issue resolved quicker than they did w/ mine. But in the mean time, there is no excuse for this lie. If they knew that it wouldn't be free by the time they posted, you'd think that Microsoft or Bungie would have enough common and ethical sense to post an update and let everyone know that there would be a delay or problem. But we're paying customers; we're nobody to them.

Yeah, I would have been happy with a refurb... I almost died the month I didn't have it. lol. But the license problem was resolved in about 2 months, but while it was in the shop getting fixed, I downloaded some stuff onto my hard-drive through my cousins 360, and there is "no possible way to get it transfered" to my serial number. That's B.S. if you ask me. They transfered the serial numbers after the repair, didn't they???

They'd better be free by tomorrow. I'm off from work and was planning on getting used to the layouts of these maps before my group got on at night. Probably won't happen at this rate. Looks like I'll just have to play Rainbow Six Vegas 2 instead; which is better in my opinion anyway.
