So, Crimson Map Pack, its playlist was released at 10am GMT
Now passed 14:00pm and guess what, War Games Pass holders still dont have access to download it via the pass we paid for 4 weeks ago, a little ironic
No word from 343i, no official word from Xbox Support…and only 578 people on the Crimson Playlist
So, congrats MS and especially 343i, you managed to Yoink up your own first Map Pack release, yoink over those who took the faith to buy your LE and War Games Pass and you reward us with ignorant silence and anger
Got to be Said, Bungie would never have allowed this to happen

Hah, you never know…this could be ANOTHER exclusive deal only In the states.
The reason why it takes longer for map pass owners is because it takes much more verification. It has been the same for the Gears 3 season pass owners.
I am sure 343 and Microsoft are doing their best to make the map pack for map pass owners available as soon as possible.

Actually, their first map pack was the Defiant map pack for Halo Reach. No body had any problems because there was no pre paid content related to it.
> Got to be Said, Bungie would never have allowed this to happen
This is wrong. Bungie had never offered some sort of map pass. If they had, these problems would have been there too for sure.
And seriously, I think no body will die because of a few hours more waiting.
Well, I finally managed to get @XboxSupport to reply, only took several hours
Xbox Support 2 @XboxSupport2 @CockneyCharmer Hey there, are you seeing it at all on your end in the in-game store? ^BB
@CockneyCharmer @XboxSupport2 Nope, not listed at all, the US has it in their menu but priced at 800MSP, UK/EU not showing Crimson listed at all, 4hrs later
Xbox Support 2 @XboxSupport2 @CockneyCharmer Thanks for the info, we will get this looked into. Can you send us a screenshot from in-game where it should be located? ^BB
Sean T @CockneyCharmer @XboxSupport2 It should be listed as free as per War Games Pass Ownership, but it does not…been reported since it went LIVE so pls ASAP
I sent them the screenshot, so, lets see what they do with it
I do have to say I’m slightly disappointed, that not even a day of waiting for videogame content has angered people THIS MUCH.
But, hey, I’m not going to be that guy. You guys mull over this on the forums. I’m still working on AC3. So it’s not big deal to me. (Oh, and that new DLC for BF3 was pretty kickin’)
Actually, I should say (much more politely). Get off the forums for now. Forget about the maps today. Enjoy another game, or just play Halo the same as you did yesterday. I know this we’ll be met with responses of how 343/Microsoft shouldn’t have had this issue. But, c’mon. At most, you can call this a minor inconvenience.
Anyways, I won’t touch more on it. Just going to enjoy AC3, and suggest others do something similar if they really can’t stand playing Halo before they have the maps.
