The playlists have been completely ruined

All the playlists from Halo anniversary have been completely mutilated, no more Aniversary BTB, No more anniversary squad. Just one playlist, wich is anniversary classic, meaning that the sheilding systems are very different from Reach’s, and it dosen’t play like reach at all. Not to mention I can no longer play on the BTB maps anymore. It’s like all the maps I payed for were just remove, and my monney taken away.

And the rest of the playlists are a mess too, I’m sorry to complain, and I do love 343i, but I can not even begin to understand, Why on earth would they ruin the old playlists setup?! What do they have to gain by doing that other than remove game modes, maps, that we payed for, and making the fanbase upset?!

I got the Anniversary DLC after the update removing the playlists and I was really looking forward to playing some BTB. I guess not. Thanks a lot 343. You really ruined it this time.

I’m so sorry, they should seriously give you a refund. And take down the option to download Anniversary maps so no more people get screwed over. It’s a shame, maybe you and me can play on the BTB maps in custom games with other friends. The maps were really fun.

My thoughts exactly.

Why do you think you are entitled to a refund?
When you purchased the Anniversary Map Pack or Halo: Anniversary, you weren’t promised a playlist, only that the maps would be playable in some way, shape or form, and they are.

They can show up in certain playlists if every player owns the DLC, or you can invite some friends to play custom games or post in the Recruiting section to find some people to play them with.

Besides, it said no refunds when you bought it. Take some responsibility for your own purchases.

Make the best out of it before population drops further. Search games, play your heart out and add the people you matched up against. If you pulled your weight and they deem you a good teammate, they will likely add you and you will have friends to play the maps with in the playlists.

I never said that I deserve a refund, I already played the maps and ejoyed them while it was out, I don’t want a refund at all, I said that HE deserves one, not me. Because He got the maps after the playlists were gone, so his monney basically just went down the drain. He can’t play half of those maps online anymore.

For the second time, I am not saying that I’m asking for a refund, I’m sorry for seeming a bit rude, but if you read my message carefully, I am saying that HE should get one NOT ME!!! I did make the best out of it before the playlists got ruined. Don’t tell me to take responsibility for my purchases as if this was MY fault. I was talking about HIM, the poor guy who bought it after the lists were gone, you should have sent this message to him, NOT ME!!!

I can play them fine online, when I find people who have them.

Nobody deserves a refund for these maps, not a single person was promised a playlist, not the opportunity to play them in Matchmaking.

> And the rest of the playlists are a mess too, I’m sorry to complain, and I do love 343i, but I can not even begin to understand, Why on earth would they ruin the old playlists setup?!

What do they have to gain? 343 made a whole new game called Halo 4 with its own paid DLC. Think about it.

> Nobody deserves a refund for these maps, not a single person was promised a playlist, not the opportunity to play them in Matchmaking.

Then what’s the point of achievements? How am I supposed to get them without boosting or pre-planning?

So… No matter what, no refunds. That was agreed upon at time of purchase. You chill, I chill, we all chill. Just like you were just saying, I’m just saying its not an option for him you or even myself. I’m not attacking you, him or any DLC owner. This is a forum were info is to be shared, I’m just sharing some of the bad news. Don’t shoot the messenger.

I still stand by my post and that the maps are still good and playable. Every one can still play them and get their money’s worth even if they buy them right now. Team doubles playlist makes it super easy to find other DLC owners.

All you need is 1 friend who owns DLC and when you play doubles you will be matched against 2 other DLC owners! If you party up, you know have 4 players who all own DLC! Then go into team slayer, wow! You get matched with 4 other DLC owners! If you want to take it further proceed with this party of 8 DLC owners into BTB and get matched against 8 other DLC owners…

You can still play DLC to your hearts content. And since there are less playlist then that means DLC owners are more packed together meaning higher population to search in. The bigger pool of population, the better you match will be skillwise. So current system is kinda the best system we can have with what population we have. Playlist are not ruined.

Not attacking anyone, just a reminder what we have is still playable… Go forth, play nice.

Haven’t played Reach in a while, what’s the playlist layout again?

we pay out hard earned cash for the DLC so what comes with the game should stay 343 should not remove a playlist they should of left reach how it was but no they had to wreck it

I am also upset about this, but I guess if we could add each other on Live, we could play the DLC maps.
I have every DLC map pack for this game. Feel free to add me.

> Just one playlist, wich is anniversary classic, meaning that the sheilding systems are very different from Reach’s, and it dosen’t play like reach at all. !

I can see why you don’t like the removal of the playlists as I don’t like it when they get rid of dlc but …

That is the point of that one playlist. A more balanced and classic slayer mode. Anythign that isn’t the default reach settings is much better.

I love it when players go into that playlist and get destroyed because they are unable to adapt to a no AA playstyle.

Ok man, we all know you are like the 343i white knight.

Have you ever found a game that showed btb anyversary maps? Dont lie please, no you didnt.

I never found a game with btb anyversary maps on btb playlist.
NEVER.

They made the same thing on halo 4.
We payed for DLC and then 1 month later, they remove the playlist and we almost Cant find a match for those maps.
Its almost like “We already have your money, we dont care about you”.

Why should i pay for a dlc if 1 month later i cant play them?
Yeah,i know, you love 343i, i know.
But face the true, its like 343i only care about the money.

343i deserve to fail.
They dont care about community.
Halo 4 is a total fail, they deserve this.
I hope they fail miserable in the next game if they act like this.

343i messed the reach playlists up so that we would play halo 4 instead.

I recommend not buying there DLC so they learn to treat there customers better.

I know this is what I’ve been saying since 343 got control of Reach

> I know this is what I’ve been saying since 343 got control of Reach

Your not the only saying this :slight_smile:
