Why should I have to pay for maps when 343 only decided to release 5 slayers maps, and crappy BTB maps??? Most games come with more maps than this, and to make us pay for testing out the BETA for this game??? Ridiculous the new maps look terrible all vehicle maps. We need 4v4 maps, small maps, competitive maps. What direction is Halo going is beyond me.
Halo 2 - 12 maps
Halo 3 - 11 maps.
Halo Reach - 8 Maps (11 counting Forge World maps)
Halo 4 - 10 maps.
Really not that different than other Halo games. I’m not really sure why people seem to forget that. Never heard anyone complain about how few maps Halo 3 had, or Halo 2 for that matter.
Well I am surprised Spartan Ops is free.
I don’t have to pay because I got limited, but normally I pay for Map Packs.
Paying for maps have been done since Halo 2, this isn’t a new concept.
because game industry in 2012
I agree. When I play slayer, CTF, ect its like a rotation of the same 4 maps and you get sick of it.
Map DLC in Halo 2 was perfect, if you waited a period of time (3-6 months) the maps became free. Sadly this will never happen again… ever

Because they were all mostly objective / Slayer maps. No big team… Also those maps were amazing and perfect for objective game types. 343 has not provided any competitive MLG maps.
I always thought paying for map packs is stupid.

Yea, and Bungie actually made free maps for the community, like foundry they were great, hey actually socialized and cared about their community.
I realized there are 10 maps but guys the only maps that get picked are exile,rag, haven. Hardly any other map is played lol. The map pack coming out is catered towards more big maps the smallest looking like complex. We need smaller 4v4 maps like midship and lockout we already have enough vehicle maps. Currently 4 maps dont have vehicles wtf??
Why pay for maps? Because Microsoft demands it. Don’t like it? Go complain to them.
> I always thought paying for map packs is stupid.
Yea it is, especially how they only include 3 maps. And when they release all of them for the game the cost for all of them is almost the game itself

You don’t HAVE to pay for anything. You can stick to forge and make all the small maps you want.

I’m not buying DLC until smaller maps are put into them. I hardly play BTB so this map pack does nothing for me lol. Add some forge maps into the rotation they literally made 2 good maps. Adrift and Haven all the rest are absolute trash…ehh I like Solace too so 3

You don’t “have” to buy the maps.
Well its not like you are going to be playing in the maps for long as they will probably be integrated into the major playlists after a month and you’ll never see them again.
I was surprised that in Reach that we didn’t get one free map by itself like had been done in 2 and 3 (I thought that if 343 made a another Halo:CE map for free then it could be used to promote CEA).
I don’t mind paying for map packs, but I think that the one free map tradition should have been upheld.

Where does it say Microsoft demands it? Source ?
If you don’t want to play on them fine don’t pay for them
Don’t expect them for free.
All I’m saying is the numbers in this game are more into BTB it is always higher in pop that slayer. This has hardly every happened. This is not -Yoink!- BF 3, a surplus of smaller maps would be great for people that like slayer. This map pack does not have 1… Stupid if you ask me
