Halo Reach maps not showing up in playlist

These default and DLC maps from Halo Reach have not been showing up in the playlist for the past two weeks I’ve been playing in Reach MM:

BTB:
Paradiso, Tempest, Breakpoint, Highland, Breakneck, and Ridgeline.

Team Slayer/Objective/SuperSlayer:
Anchor 9, Condemned, Zealot, Breakneck, and Tempest.

I’ve been playing in these maps that too frequently showing up in the playlist:

Hemorrhage, Boneyard, Boardwalk, Spire, Powerhouse, and few too popular Forge World community maps.

I would like 343 to create a separate playlist exclusive for these maps I emphasized in bold. I’m tired of playing the same maps over and over for the past 2 weeks and never actually see the maps in bold showing up in the playlist when players select a map by total votes for gametime.

Thank you!

Paradiso was updated and renamed… Utopi? All other DLC you will have 0 chance of finding until you put a DLC team together. Matchmaking gives up on matching you with DLC owners pretty quickly. Start here on the forum, find one DLC owner and play Doubles. You will be matched with DLC owners 2 at a time there, great place to recruit DLC friends.

honestly, it’s easier to pick on easy targets from the general population, if you build a DLC team… You will be matched against other DLC owners. That means people that love halo enough to put out more cash and will likely fight back. Hope that’s what you like, it’s awesome but not everyone likes a fair and difficult match.

So, to get the Defiant achievements I still need, I need to play a game with all DLC owners?

Yes, the maps can’t show up if players don’t have them.

Then in this case, 343/MS should offer Reach DLC maps for free to XBL users. It’s been almost 2 years since the last Reach DLC map came out, if I’m not mistaken.

This wont happen since (apparently) its Microsoft policy not to make DLC free if achievements are tied to it (although all Gears of War 1 and some Red Dead Redemption DLC contradict this).
