Except the map pack isn't actually out. The links are all there but the actual map pack isn't up yet.

it is, you have to go to the market place, but its there

I dug around and found the download at around 8:30 amish EST

just had to go to the "extras" tab for reach in the market place, and hit "see all extras"

I guess the time in the postbit is just invisible to some people.

Except it wasn't at the time annihilation and I (and others) posted. Go troll someplace else.

They had all the Xbox dashboard crap setup for Defiant at ~3am PST this morning however the map pack wasn't available (even when browsing Reach's entire Marketplace). Later it was finally viewable by the public and then even later they redid the content package for some odd reason (which required a re-download by every one who got it early). Apparently their excuse for somehow adding an extra 150MBish and requiring a redownload was that they redid how the maps were packaged or stored (from a post a saw at HBO).

First match on Highlands, 9 deaths total, with 6 of those from rocket launchers. This better be a fluke, because that's rather frustrating. Rockets should really spawn in the middle, not at the bases. The map already has a laser and a plasma launcher, too.

It seems fun otherwise. It's really too bad the Forge palette sucks, because this could've made a great invasion map, too. Hopefully someone more clever than I can get it to work.

I wasn't trolling.
The map pack showed up on servers over here an hour before you even posted.

Why is the Mk V helmet so expensive? It's causing me to grind like crazy.

Also I'm liking the new maps so far. Haven't gotten the chance to play Unearthed yet though.

Apparently there's a special variant of Condemned called Uplink which uses special Forge pieces to block off certain rooms of the map. It seems pretty neat.

I don't think it's necessary to have all these power weapons either. But, so far, I've been ok with the rockets spawning in the bases since it seems to be a vehicle heavy map. I'm sure my opinion will change when people start to abuse the rockets. So far I've been able to snipe them and kill them with the DMR before they've gotten me though.

So that's what Uplink is? I've seen it a few times, but I've never been able to play it. Sounds pretty neat though.

Jesus fucking christ, people STILL keep going 'wtf' over that one helmet. I really fucking wish I could smack the shit out of the idiot who took that promo shot with a non-retail helmet.

After which I would smack the weak sauce producers. There's no way that slipped by unintentionally unless the majority of 343i has never played the game (and you don't play the game without tweaking your armor).
