Subject: Magically Disappearing DLC

I woke up, hopped on Halo Reach to do my challenges, and it says "player does not have recommended DLC.Which I Very well do.I can't play premium battle, so I re-downloaded Defiant and Noble, Still says the same thing.Then I went into custom matches and checked my levels. Breakpoint,condemned ect. are all there, and so are six more levels from Anniversary DLC, which says its -1MS points.Then when i try to get it it says required balance 4765675953.Yeah thats all cool, its not out until tomorrow.What isnt cool is not being able to play Premium battle, which only requires noble and defiant. I am not buying them twice.So fix the problem or I will trade the game in and damn sure wont be buying Halo CEA.Because im not paying for DLC twice.Its bad enough I had to pay 10 bucks for 3 maps.twice.second time one of the maps was firefight*vomits*.I dont know what your doing 343 but since you took over ive seen quite an abundance of screw-ups.Like putting weekly's as daily's.Tighten up.

It seems that you're mad.

Understandable.

I would be mad too if I couldn't understand half of the words the other person was saying.

Have to have a k/d above one.

I think you reached your maximum of three download items. Don't panic.

You have to go to your memory and delete your Bungie pro sub/renewel file (I honestly don't know), delete that and then your DLC should show up. If not, re-DL after you did that and then try it again.

  • 11.14.2011 8:13 AM PDT

I don't have 3 downloadable items.All I have is Noble and Defiant.

  • 11.14.2011 8:15 AM PDT

delete everything.
re-download.

happened to a guy on black ops :P lol

  • 11.14.2011 8:21 AM PDT

Yep, this is happening to me too. It tells me I don't have the DLC and when I open up the Marketplace from Reach itself, the maps are available for me to purchase again. However, when I access the Marketplace from the Dashboard, it tells me I already have it installed.

Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

Happened to me back in Call Of Duty World at War, just delete the map pack and re download.

Go to the dashboard. Go to your memory. Find the 'Bungie Pro Confirmation' file assuming you've ever had Bungie Pro. Delete that and everything will work.

That's too hard, obviously.

  • 11.14.2011 9:10 AM PDT

When your right, nobody remembers. When your wrong, nobody forgets.

I think it's because the CEA maps are available for download, not sure.

  • 11.14.2011 9:13 AM PDT

Please...stop getting butthurt when I noscope you from the passenger seat of the vehicle I'm riding in :D

I'm getting the same message. Premium Battle is listed as needing ALL DLC, since the Anniversary playlists are live, the game is going to say everyone who doesn't have the new 7 maps have missing dlc, and that also means if we don't have the Anniversary Maps, we can't play Premium Battle =/

How about waiting until CEA comes out to see if they were preparing for that?

I get this occasionally. Just turn your xbox on and off and presto.

>DLC playlist that requires all DLC
>New DLC is getting added tomorrow
>Said DLC playlist has been updated to require the DLC
>Wonder why you can't get into the DLC playlist

Just give it until tomorrow. There's still plenty of other playlists to play until then.

  • 11.14.2011 9:46 AM PDT

well it is tomorrow.And not only is premium battle not working, but it is saying it cannot load information from xbox live.Here is some logic, You have 6 playlist's in they're own tier (anniversary), Why make it so you have to have anniversary DLC to play Premium Battle with Noble & Defiant when you already have 6 others for that? Yet only 1 playlist type for Defiant&Noble? It doesn't make sense.And it says Defiant & Noble required for premium battle, it says nothing about Anniversary.I already deleted and re-downloaded, I never had bungie pro, I only have the 2 map packs, and seeing as there are only 40 people playing premium battle I'm guessing It's not just me.I was going to buy Halo CEA but I'm starting to think i should just trade in reach and get battlefield 3. Having people pay for DLC and not letting them play it on matchmaking? Its retarded.oh, one more thing, -blam!- Paragraphs.Its a forum not a college exam.

I have the same problem. Thought it was because I just changed to an xbox slim. I rang xbox support. Their idea was to format the hdd and recover gamertag. What a joke. He said he might ring back though. Looks like a balls up by 343 to me. Was going to get anniversary. That might fix it but if It didn't I would sling the game out the window and cry. lol.
