AH: Having problems with the Defiant Map Pack?
As you should all be aware, the Defiant Map pack for Halo: Reach were released on Xbox Live today. However, a number of people on this site may already have the maps thanks to codes from various sources. Those of you who got the maps early should carry on reading, as it appears that there may be a problem with the maps you currently have downloaded, which may prevent you from using them with people who have downloaded the maps today.
Bungie are already aware of this issue, as seen in their forums, and the problem can easily be rectified by deleting the maps currently on your hard drive, and redownloading them from the marketplace. The key thing to making sure you’ve got the “correct” map pack is to check the file size on your hard drive. The one that everyone should be using is 691.43 Mb, where as people who downloaded it early may have one that is 438 Mb.
So if you have downloaded the maps early, it’d be worth just checking the filesize before going into matchmaking and causing yourself some frustration.

Reach – now on GoD
FyreWulff pointed out that Reach is now available for download from Games on Demand – it’s $50, which is $10 more than you’ll find it for in Gamestop, Wal-Mart, or Amazon right now, but it also removes the need for a disc in your disc tray. Amazing that it’s out so soon on this service!(Louis Wu 14:19:21 UTC)
