Well done bungie. The maps are awsome, Containment is hella huge. Turf is snipetastic. Warlock is awsome for any jugernaught game, especially ninjanaught. How they ever pulled it off is beyond me, but bravo bungie bravo.

When are the stats restarting and is it that there are 9 new maps which 4 of them have already come out (killtacular pack and warlock and containment)? Also why the hell do they cost money right now and won't on June 28th? I thought you guys were changing the matchmaking to also fit in the new maps?

W00 paid for all the maps...

In reply to that guy who was complaining about playing (can't find the post so I can't quote it).

Well £30 for my starter kit which gave me a headset and 1 year subscription, £2.99 for the kiltacular pack are you really that bothered, think of all the game time you going to get out of these maps!

Anywhos me was off schoo, the day thew maps came out as I was 'ill' so I got them as soon as they came out lol, was one of the first to get it, defonatly the first 12 year old in England!

There are a total of 9 new maps. The first 4 were released Monday. 2 free, 2 premium. On June 28th, when the remaining 5 premium maps are released (or all 9 on Retail DVD), the 2 premuim maps Turf and Sanctuary will then become free to download.

Matchmaking updates and stats reset is scheduled for next week (first week of May, probably on May 2nd).

Please read the weekly update from Frankie. All this information is in the post.

If your too cheap to spend any money ALL THE MAPS will eventually be free for download.

Free maps will be worked into the general matchmaking area (where they fit of course).
There will also be a new "Team Preview" which will feature the premium maps. You WILL HAVE to purchase the premium maps to play in the Team Preview area.

I know some of you must be wondering how I know all this information???
BECAUSE I READ THE WEEKLY UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Sorry for the caps locks there, tired of people asking the same silly questions, when the information is SO easily found in the weekly update)

i kept getting the glitch saying you cant DL the maps, but i just kept trying and trying, and i got them! (when you 'restart' the download it actually continues right where it left off...it may take a while but you'll get your maps!) i sugest all others that get this problem do the same

Turf= Hella tight, best crafted map in the game
Sanctuary=Most balanced CTF map in the game
IMO....

It took awhile to find the snipers but if you are looking at your base out front you go to the far right and walk up that far right ramp. it is leaning up against that wall once you reach the 2nd level. Very clever Bungie. That sniper and the one on Sanctuary have neat locations. These maps had me (and everyone else) playing custom games. I think Matchmaking was empty!

Hey guys, exactly how big are the maps??(like in size) I was also wondering if you could save the maps to a memory card. I do not have xbox live and thinking maybe my friend could download them and save them to a memory card. Someone help a brother out.

All nine maps will be available for FREE after June 28.

If you don't have XBL and want the maps now, your mate has XBL and one of you has a memory card, put his live account on the memory card, take your Xbox over to your mate's place and put his live account from the memory card onto your box and connect it up to the modem/network/etc. You can then download the maps to your Xbox using his live account.

Whoever hosts the game determines whether it's 1.0 or 1.1, so if you've got a LAN party and you have 1.1 and are hosting, then everyone will have the new melee and grenades, etc. Your mates will have to download the maps for themselves (see above paragraph if they don't have XBL).

Sometimes maps will occasionally fail to load, if it happens continuously, I think Bungie said to delete the "Halo 2" root folder in your Xbox dashboard... see the latest Weekly What's update for more about that.

And everyone else, please PLEASE read the Weekly Update before posting!! The last 8 or so weeks have been jam packed full of info that is going to answer almost every one of these damn questions!

ok guys this is for all those ppl who arent gettin maps dled, the first one kept saying failed to download for me, all i did was kept on it and it will eventually keep downloading little by little. now, for the killtacular one, i tried my account and it said purchase failed try later. but i used my friend's account who always plays on my box, and it worked just fine, so maybe at some point in time i clicked on something that didnt let me purchase stuff, so try gettin a friends gamertag and then pay him the $6.
