I’m sure we all know that the Majestic Map pack is launching tomorrow. With that being said, what time will it be available for Season Pass owners? Is it gonna be the same deal as with what happened with the Crimson Map Pack, I hope not. I ask because I would like to start it as a background download before I head off to school. I start my first class at 9am and my last class finishes at 7pm, as you can guess, I would like it to be fully downloaded and ready to play when I boot up my Xbox. So any info regarding this would be nice, Thanks in advance…
6 hours and 15 minutes from now. Approximately
The downloads usually go up around 2am PST.
But will I have to wait? Cause when Crimson was released, you could buy it immediately with MS Points, but Map Pass Owners like myself had to wait a while…

thats the golden question.

I believe that may have been a mistake on Microsoft’s end (not 343 iirc, as I don’t think they control when stuff is released on the Marketplace). Just like the ‘preview’ of the map pack; that was a mistake because -Yoink!- ‘accidentally’ released it for free to anyone. It’s a conspiracy I tells ya. But this time might be different.

Yeah I don’t think that will happen again. 343 screwed up and MS had the “free preview” excuse to cover their -Yoinks!-
I hope it drops at the right time. These maps look good. Cant wait to play.

You realise it’s the other way round right? lol

LOL
Since some of us live in different Time-Zones
What day will the Majestic Map Pack be released? Monday, or Tuesday?
I’m expecting it to be ready right away. A couple days ago, it showed up to download. I downloaded the maps, but MS didn’t let the license download so I couldn’t access the maps. I am a map pass owner (I bought the LE). It is ready to go, they just have just hidden it again

Monday
I think 343 and MS would’ve learned from the Crimson pack debacle where War Games pass owners had to wait longer. Majestic should be up for War Games pass owners at the same time as everyone else.

No it wasn’t, the glitch only affected the in game download, not the dashboard, it also required an update to halo 4 to fix.

MS also manages the in game marketplace, as soon as the guide pops up, it’s all them.
