Sorry I was playing when I posted that...here it is step by step.

1. Access the email account that you used to register your XBL handle.
2. Find the Specialization email that they sent out which helps unlock the rest of the specializations beyond the two that the game started with.
3. Download (or if you have already downloaded it, redownload it via Account Management).
4. IMPORTANT - Access the XBox Live Marketplace via the Halo 4 MAIN MENU. NOT by the XBL marketplace on the dashboard. That way it won't work. You have to access it via the XBL option at the H4 Main menu.
5. Crimson map pack should appear with a "*" right beside it. Click it and then click download below it...download should start (size is around 550 mb). No credit amount should appear beside it, it should say 0G

From what I'm reading online there's no way they can ban you for it...it's a **** up on their part and they pay the price of it. I heard that for the other people that have already bought it or paid the seasons pass for the maps they will be releasing a fourth map pack in the future.
I honestly have no sympathy for XBL/343. To release a new map pack so soon after the release date of the game? Kiss my ass I paid full price for this game when it came out in my eyes this map pack should have been included. Basically what happened was they didn't realize that the Specialization code they sent out also included the download for the Crimson Map Pack...so they really screwed up.

Note on Specialization Email:
From: https://forums.halowaypoint.com/yaf_...il-Thread.aspx
Here are a few reasons why your inbox may still be empty.
- Emails were sent to both opt-in and opt-out accounts.
- If you did not play Halo prior to November 20 at 11:59 PM EST, you would have not received the email. <-- i didn't
- If you are registered with Xbox LIVE in Europe, the Middle East or Africa, you would have not received the email. As noted on the original offer, these regions were not part of the Specializations offer as Specializations were offered as a pre-order offer, not a post-launch offer.

Sounds like it is worth a try even without the specialization email... thanks anyway Bondon

No problem, turns out XBL pulled another piece of bullshit and now are claiming that they had intended for it to be a 'free trial' until December 18. Yeah...bullshit because earlier today when someone tweeted to XBL support the response clearly stated "If you can grab it, it's yours. The mistake is on us".

Now they're saying 'New information has come to light, it will now only be a free trial until the 18th". I'd be interested to hear what someone who actually is involved with legal matters has to say on the situation because all the people I'm seeing posting on halo forums and stuff just sound like pissed off gamers/people who think they know what they're talking about but don't sound like they do. I mean if I technically purchased this map pack for 0G...is that any fault of mine and are they legally allowed to disable my ability to use these maps on multiplayer? Just curious.

Whatever, the only map I actually really liked was Harvest. I thought Shatter and Wreckage or whatever were garbage. Not gonna sweat losing these maps, I'm still not happy about the fact that they released DLC like this barely a month after the game coming out...considering how few maps the original game came with.


I'm just gonna keep playing this game. Am I gonna one day buy these maps? Maybe, if I decide to buy the season pass which is $30 for 3 map packs. Huge ripoff if you ask me considering it would bump the game cost to over $100 which in my eyes is absurd.

Whatever, **** big business.

(Also I have a bit of a vendetta against XBL Support after I was banned from Halo Reach for a week without any reasoning/warning. When I contacted their support trying to get answers for why I was banned I was passed back and forth between two departments for more than 30 minutes and then told me they couldn't give me an answer for three days. Bunch of ****heads)

Often online shopping has clauses that "errors" are corrected in the companies favour. Often Amazon has pricing errors and just cancel the orders ... ohwell.

I once had some 120$ movie set for 20$ on amazon and they said "pricing error" and just cancelled it. Seems pretty common practice.
