    k, just messaged you dax.

    Did any of you guys have spare MS points? Does it have to do with that? (I have some spare, wondering if that'll do anything)

    Otherwise, it's fixed... prolly depended on when you loaded h4..

    nope. still 800 msp..


    Edited by merge:


    Chipsinabox, it's bringing me to a list of stuff, 25 long. DLC at top, 800 msp. If you try going back to the window, is that what you see, possibly minus the DLC?

    forgeability of the maps:

    harvest has 2 new crates, and 40 total crates

    wreckage has Doors, Windows, Walls category with a new wall, and new door, and teleporter frame. 20 total

    Shatter also has the doors,walls, 20 total, but not tele frame

    idk much else, just did a quick forgethru of each of them.

    Spin, I was doing the same thing as you and getting the same result. You probably wont be able to repeat my steps, but here's what I did:

    Closed out of the marketplace menu that said it cost 800 msp
    Went to dashboard
    Entered my Specialization code that Microsoft messaged me a few days ago which I still had not entered
    Turned off my Xbox
    Turned it back on and went back into the crimson playlist
    Opened up the same screen, and it took me to the window that Chipsinabox showed

    Spin, this may sound like a stupid question but do you have the pass itself downloaded to your Xbox? I bought it on Xbox.com and hadn't downloaded it, the maps wouldn't appear as available until I'd actually downloaded the map pack pass item which is like 100KB.

    Past that, are you going to the Xbox Live Marketplace option on the main menu, or following the prompt when you try to enter the Crimson playlist?

    I don't have the map pack pass.
    I have tried both using the crimson prompt and the marketplace option. I have also tried from xbox home.

    I never got an email, they sent the code over live

    Just try signing out and signing back in again and see if that works. I probably did that 7 or so times

    Wait, so you can't even see the map pack at all, even the regular 800MSP version?

    So... first map played being Harvest, I learned a very valuable lesson for that map. Never look toward the center. All in all though, hogging was actually kinda fun and I was able to get a Riot doing so.

    I can see the 800msp version in a list of things that cost money. Not getting Chipsinabox's screen.

    Dax's method worked.

    Most likely, you need the specializations code downloaded for this to work.

    Didn't have to restart my xbox or anything. It'll give you that "checking for downloadable updates" thing right after you put in the code. Afterwards, go to any prompt and the window chipsinabox showed will come up.

    :)

    OH right, it's a glitch, I see.

    Seeing as they apparently fixed the map pack pass thing on a per-location basis, perhaps the glitch only works in certain places too?

    EDIT: Nvm, glad you got it working.

    So in their efforts to fix the problem with passes, they inadvertently gave it away free to people who don't have the pass? Good god, these guys are certainly earning their pay right now. Guessing this glitch is gonna be fixed *very* quickly.

    I think it's having the specializations code downloaded. Did that and right after, nothing else, it worked. Would like confirmation, though.

    Get the word around?

    This is a good point, I live in Canada. I expected this glitch to work for US as well.
