Correction. Noble and Defiant are not worth it.

  • 12.26.2011 1:01 PM PDT

chances are I don't care who you are or what you say.

and required

Anniversary beats all default maps. Why wouldn't you get it?
And at guy above me: If 7 maps for $15 isn't cheap, then I don't know what is.

not cheap enough considering the maps aren't even that good

'kay, you keep thinking that.

IMO, all the DLC Maps were worth it. Anything to add a little variety is always welcomed. It is a shame we cant play them with as much frequency as we would like, but I enjoyed them nonetheless. Regards.

If they were still in matchmaking, you'd be an idiot. But now that they're gone it kind of makes sense.

Anniversary is something every halo player needs to get.

Bought Noble map pack, but the maps hardly show up so I didn't even bother getting Defiant.

  • 12.26.2011 2:44 PM PDT

You're right, in that pretty much the only way you'll see them is customs. So it's not worth it.

Which is really a shame. I really liked Anchor 9, Breakpoint, Highlands and Condemned. :(

"You have enemies? Good, that means you stood up for something."- Eminem

I got Noble but not Defiant then I got pissed that they put both the dlcs into one playlist so I can't play the Noble maps.

In halo 3 we would get the map pack maps quite often becuase they were either required to play in most of the good playlists or free.

They need to make a map pack filter in Halo 4. I don't think that forcing players to get the maps is the answer but making the maps more common with a search filter would encorage more people to buy them.

Funny thing is that the reason why they dont get voted for on WaW is becaus of a huge DLC issue that has never been fixed becaus TA/Activision dont care about it . On Reach so few players actualy have the maps.

  • 12.26.2011 7:09 PM PDT

I got both Noble and Defiant for $5 each. The maps are better than default Reach, but that's not saying much.

It seems like winning the lottery is weighted more than Paradiso.

Hmmm... I see it all the time. Also, Utopie isn't a fix for it.

Actually ANCHOR 9 shows up a fair bit if you do team SWAT or slayer, but the other's don't :(

  • 12.27.2011 12:15 AM PDT

Every single pummel I have is unboosted.
I play GGL. (Grifball)
I hit inheritor 14/1/12. 16 months after release. I have a life fellas.
Every single killionaire I have is unboosted. 22 from grifball, 4 from LD.

Condemned shows up a lot in LD compared to other maps.
Tempest shows up in Action Sack too.
But yeah, I think they should put Noble and Defiant Map Pack playlist back in matchmaking.

Yes we need to have some sort of filter. Have were we can be match with folks who have all maps who even filter out maps we don't like so they wont pop up for us.
