Subject: What happened to Invasion on Breakpoint?

What ever happened to playing invasion on Breakpoint? I didn't purchase the Noble map pack until recently, so I have not had a chance to play invasion on the map. However, I don't believe I will ever be able to experience Breakpoint invasion because it never shows up in invasion playlists anymore. No matter how many times I play on the invasion playlist, Breakpoint is never an option. I believe that this is terrible because, not will I never have the chance to experience playing on the map, but I will also never be able to earn the achievement for blowing up the lab during an invasion game in Breakpoint. Does anybody feel like this is unfair or not?

It, and every Noble/Defiant map, took the same fate as Premium.

Removed.




Actually, you just need a several four leaf clovers for any DLC map to show up now.

The people who couldn't adapt to the maps and the games that came with them complained so much that 343 removed them.

It seems like that happens to all the good stuff in reach these days.

they should make those map packs free so they can force everyone to download them :(

  • 12.27.2011 10:03 PM PDT

I've been trying to help one of my friends get that achievement but it almost never comes up in Invasion.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

I haven't played Breakpoint since October.

Wow. Just...wow.

I have played three games of Breakpoint while in BTB, and the last one was in March.

In Invasion, there was a full month between my last two games. Between my second-to-last and third-to-last, it was two months.

My other games were in Premium Battle and Noble Map Pack playlists.

lol343!

Probably never going to see any DLC maps now. Sucks cause they're better than the majority of default maps.

If i am being completely honest, yeah they were massive maps but if you didnt like them dont complain them rather than ruining the fun for people that want to play them like myself and you...therefore most people only care about themselves not anyone else when it comes to xbox live. and ive played breakpoint once for the achievement (which by the way they should remove if you cant play breakpoint anymore LOL) and the last and only time i played it was about 3 months ago.

Maybe if enough people complain about the fact they have the map packs but have no playlist to play them on, maybe they might bring something new to the game to play them on......or add the maps to the current playlists

The Last i have heard was that the populations was hitting low numbers on a daily basis and the removed the playlist and put all of the dlc maps into the other playlists. The only problem is that with this new setup is that if one person that u get matched with you will never see the maps and with so many ppl complaining about the maps and game nobody is gonna get the dlc packs. My best advice would be to find some ppl that has the dlc and boost the cheevo.

RIP Bungie Service Records. You shall be missed.

The only DLC map I've went on was Anchor 9, in Team Slayer. About a week ago, actually.

actually i can tell you for definate that even then it is VERY rare for breakpoint to appear. i have the cheevo but my mate doesnt so we got a team of 8 people and went on invasion. all of us had every DLC pack and yet after half hour of searching for a game, returning to the dashboard disappointed and repeating the process, we STILL didnt have breakpoint appear. So Bungie removing the Premium Battle option has actually f**ked everyones gaming experience up if they have the DLCs

  • 12.28.2011 5:33 AM PDT

343 needs to make the playlists unavailable to the people who dont have the map packs. Thus forcing them to buy them. I hate the default maps.

  • 12.28.2011 5:39 AM PDT

I've noticed this as well. And also all the defiant maps have gone to as well as noble. I loved Alpha Zombies on condemned and now I'll never play it again. On top of all this, how are we going to get the gamerscores? Its not like we can play forever with firends to get the achievements that have to be done on a certain map that never comes up.

So what if the saxophone is black?
it has better tone the the gold one.
damn straight i play Jazz.

while I totally agree with this, talking about it here isn't going to do anything.

gotta go to the waypoint forums to get the people with power to hear you.

I had Tempest outvoted for none of the above, immediately after Breakpoint was outvoted for Uncaged...

343 dun goofed.

  • 12.28.2011 9:23 AM PDT

I feel that if it is rrquired for an achievment, then It should stay, and come up fairly often. Otherwise you're just screwing people over for no good reason.

If a map has a low choice rate, they should look at how many people purchased the map pack for it. I'd like to think they do, but they've done many things over these past months that don't seem to make much sense, like jack up the servers so that three consecutive voting rounds have load failures that result in maps no one voted for.
