UPDATE: Modern Warfare 2 Maps Not Working - Microsoft Engineers on Duty

UPDATE: --- As of 3:45pm on March 30th, Microsoft's Daniel Maher (aka Mr Pointyhead) has put a four hour ETA on working DLC as follows:

"Stimulus Package update: The Title Update is currently being prepped, but could take four hours to appear everywhere once it's ready."

--- END UPDATE


As well as commenting on the release of the Stimulus Pack for Modern Warfare 2, Infinity Ward's Robert Bowling recently pointed out the a Title Update would be required in order to use the DLC that released today. As yet, no Title Update is forthcoming, leading to unusable Stimulus.

Yesterday, Bowling commented on his blog that:

"Along side the DLC, but something ALL of our users will get, is a title update for Modern Warfare 2. Included in this update is support for the DLC (if you choose to purchase it), as well as some tweaks to the One Man Army perk, some matchmaking updates that will help our international users find more locally hosted games thanks to how ping is now sorted, and various other code updates that will help improve the overall quality of multiplayer on Modern Warfare 2."

There is no exact time you can expect all this, I’d say early morning when traffic is at its lowest, but by the time you wake up and get online I’m sure it will be available to most of you on March 30th! See you online all this week!"

Well, Major Nelson has been forced to tell the world today that:

"The engineers are already engaged and working on the MW2 Stimulus Pack problem. They'll get is corrected"

In fact, as per Robert Bowling's post, the Major then states, "The Stimulus Package needs a Title Update and it didn't go out properly. We're pushing it out now - it won't be long. #MW2 (via @thevowel)."


More when we get it.
