It greatly upsets me that we don’t get to use half of the DLC that we bought and paid for. Why offer DLC if you are just going to end up disabling it???
When you bought the DLC’s you had no clue that they were going to be removed from MM right? Karma is hard dud.
You can get DLC maps in MM, it’s just not likely.
Why did they take away the DLC playlists anyway?

Because only a couple dozen people played them.

I don’t care about it’s population, people want DLC achievements but they can’t get them if the maps don’t show up often.

But you can still get them.

I know but the maps needed rarely come up. You can get Noble achievments on any map unless it’s the Breakpoint one. Defiant is only acquired on the Defiant maps, with 3 of them that can be gained in customs, and there’s Anniversary and I never get an infection game on an anniversary map or get a game with a jetpack on an anniversary map. And also I never get Timberland or Ridgeline for the License to Kill achievement. And they also seem to require luck alot of times.

I got a Defiant achievement on a normal Reach map, Countdown. Maybe it was just a glitch.
Yes I am totally with you on this. Understand I have 2 Xbox 360 and bought games and map packs for each. I play on one box and my brother and son play on the other. All these new awesome maps and never played on them! Same with the rendered minutes I bought and they stopped rendering films. Feeling ripped off? Well yeah money is earned. How do we get the achievements on these maps? Doesn’t make any sense at all. I paid for these map packs full price when they came out. You have to get these in Matchmaking and I maybe played a few once or twice and never played again because the old maps were selected by others. They need to also make it so you can get the new achievements in custom mode. Actually NO I want to be able to play these in actual matchmaking like I thought I could when I bought them.
I paid a lot for these Midas Mufflers and didn’t get what I paid for twice for 2 consoles. All these new maps should be in the H4 game at launch with DLC game list that allows us to choose which map we want to play. Not a choice that others that don’t have the maps. Also glad they brought the Fish-stick layout similar COD. why because this is what was killing Halo. The controller layout. Gamers preferred the COD layout and kept getting confused from one game to the other. I suggested custom controls. (a) does this and (RT does that. But even though this is for the H4 forum, bring the similar COD controller layout is what will bring back Halo gamers. Although if your paying for map packs that you can’t play in matchmaking this will definitely ward off more gamers because they threw away their money.
not being able to play on Anchor 9 on a daily basis is a little upsetting. Such a good map and a shame it never appears. One of the few good things in reach is of course made bad by it not being available lol
I honestly thought it would turn out being something like Halo 3 - where almost all of the playlists require all of the DLC to play.
That’s the way it should be.
I agree. The way they have it now makes getting achievements completely impossible.
This is a really annoying thing I have paid a lot of money over the year on halo dlc and this is a rip off. I will really consider not getting any dlc for halo 4 if this is not sorted out before the launch so that I can play them. I have been on about 4 forums on this site writing about this to get one of 343 to notice. I know your all busy with touching up Halo 4 but SORT THIS OUT SO WE ALL CAN PLAY WITH THE DLC WE PAID FOR!!!
But remember, more people will have the HALO 4 DLC because it’s in the limited edition.
Just play a playlist for a long time and it’ll show up.
Well I one main problem was you had very limited choice in competitive list. Most gamers play this list. The good ones anyway. What selection did we have limited to none. I was never able to go for the achievements either because the maps were not there to play them. Even in the other game types! How can you play the maps if you can’t get on them to play in multi-player? I like the well made maps. I even reconstructed H2 Coagulation and made an awesome architectural design of the bases. Although I never set up true layouts of weapons and spawns but put everything there for others to do that. if needed to change. It was the structures that made the map for any type of game play. Go to my downloads and download “Coagulation Core” Planting a bomb takes real teamwork. Protect the core. Also big team and snipers. It’s all made for all the game types and truly beautiful bases. Put this baby in game types? Took me months to build because I had to duplicate 2 bases, piece by piece. Actually ran out of material and needed at least one light to better highlight a cave but we only got a couple of lights. The light in the cave placed in the wall would have made it much easier to navigate and it’s a close battle area. I was going to rebuild in H4 but now I don’t know? Because of what was done to us in HR. Maps we paid for and never got to play or get our achievements. To get the shape of the stairways and walls I had to use many large curves. Why there was a block at one end I will never know. That really made thins difficult on those curves. A one direction curve? Opposite curves and you had to flip over the material and it had a ridiculous block on it at the end. So These structures could have been much better and easier with out that. and at least 1 or 2 more lights for the cave. Look high on the cliffs also for lasers. Any way check it out “Coagulation Core” by FreshVenom. So I don’t expect Reach Multi-player to be fixed. Maybe H4 will be different. I surely will have to see to believe but I think I will wait and see how it all pans out. I don’t want to throw away anymore money. I know that 343i has the mini movie and all but it’s all about the multi-player and the maps WE pay for.
I used to enjoy Squad DLC until they took it down. I’ve only seen dlc maps pop up a few times since, and players rarely vote for it which is annoying too 
i just search with a party that all own DLC and we play on them quite often not all the time but alot more then searching on your own. But as AHal said making some playlists DLC required would solve alot of problems on the other hand Halo 4 is almost here and if you pre-ordered the limited edition you get the DLC with it so much more DLC will be played 
i whole-heartedly agree. this is aggravating. im also an achievement -Yoink!- and it wrecks my ocd to be nearly complete with the achievements, but the maps i need appear so infrequently…
