Okay, it's been a while. I haven't hopped on H2 in over a year and a half, and i'm currently redownloading all of the map packs.

Now i need to ask, why does it take so long to download these older maps? It doesn't seem to take as long compared to the new H3 maps...

Been playing Halo since 2001. I know my Halo.

All of the original Xbox's DLC is probably on slower servers, because of their much less download ques.

I would imagine that this is the case. I've had to download all of the map packs multiple times on multiple occasions, and they are always slow to finish. If it were still a popular download on a regular basis then I'm sure it would be as slow as it is. Unfortunately, it's not :-P
