i recently got the anniversary, noble and defiant map packs, i know i can play the anniversary maps by playing the "anniversary class/firefight" gametype. But how do i play the other maps? ive tried big team battle, team slayer and living dead and all ive seen is the non dlc maps pop up.. what gametype do i have to play to play this new dlc i got?

thats the dumbest **** ever, 50 bucks worth of dlc and every player has to have it. Wow this is so frcking dumb the odds of this happening are very slim. it should have mentioned that in the description when buying it. ffs

actually once in awhile 343i has DLC only playlists.

 

You should have done your research before buying it. At least now you can play any map on Halo 4 and that comes in handy a lot of the time.

There are some DLC playlists once in a while and DLC maps actually show up a lot, compared to Reach. Still I agree that the DLC has lost some value due to it not being required at all. But the community backlash was rather big when they tried making the first map pack a requirement.

The DLC is still in almost every playlist, though for them to appear, every player in the lobby has to have the DLC. So unless you get lucky, you'll have to pull a lobby together full of players that have the same DLC.

Like they said above, they swap in playlists periodically. Best bet is to just get some friends and play some customs.

I don't see why I would have to do research about a DLC, if it's not playable then why the hell sell it in the first place? Seems very deceiving. And I'm just a little upset because the 3 DLCs were my birthday present for this week and I can't Rly get to play them online :( but I guess now I know not to buy the DLC for halo4

Since you really wanna test out these maps, I suggest you make a play date in the "Game Invitations" subforum. Just let the members know that to attend, they must have all of the Halo: Reach DLC. I would hope to attend, but I don't have any Halo: Reach DLC.

 

Good luck!

But the whole point is that it is playable.

 

I do give you that DLC became next to worthless in Halo thanks to forge and that it really limits the experience of the DLC, because some of them are really great maps.
