I think the worst part is that even after buying them, the only chance of using them is if you are sharing a lobby with people who all also have it.
It's a neat little trick and a nice surprise when it happens but that's close to never!
I mean sure there is the Premium Slayer playlist but that sucks because there is so few variations of gametypes per map. I liked Halo 3 when after a while, the packs were intigrated into main playlists and required to play, so you could actually play with what you spent ten bucks on.
Except no one forces you to buy them. If you don't consider them worth the minor investment, then you don't need to purchase them. If, however, you do consider the maps themselves to be worth the amount and find yourself not using them as much as you'd like in matchmaking, you have two options.
1) Get some friends together and enjoy a custom match.
2) If you don't see that many people online on your FL who play Reach, why not revert to the old CE days and have a classic LAN party with friends?
None of the friends play Reach anymore, not with the likes of Skyrim, Battlefield and Batman around. (Who could blame them.)
And just to nit-pick your "options":
1. Custom on Reach for my friends and I usually go on maps that have been heavily forged because if we take the time and effort to create a custom game, why the hell play regular slayer? Boooooring! What with only one of the maps being a "Forge World" variant, none of them stick too well for gatherings.
2. I'm lucky enough to have most of my friends still live around home with me so that we can have LANs a few times a year. People lugging TV's and boxes to my house is something we've been doing for years now and will continue for years more.
On-topic however, it's nothing I have against spent money or the maps themselves and I am aware that not everyone is going to buy them. I was just expressing my own thought on the matter and what not. Silly nonsense is silly, you know?
