"Modern Warfare 2" fans have been waiting for the game's first map pack for months, and today was supposed to mark its launch on the 360. Unfortunately, even though the pack can be purchased and downloaded (for $15), players haven't been able to get much farther than that. Starting the game and trying to launch one of the new maps in multiplayer results in a never ending lobby countdown and exactly zero actual gameplay.
An update from Xbox Live rep Larry "Major" Nelson came mere minutes ago, saying that the required title update has just launched for "Modern Warfare 2" and it will allow folks to enjoy the new maps to the fullest:
The MW2 Title Update is now live! It may take a few minutes for everyone worldwide to get it - our apologies for the delay. #MW2
No word yet on whether the title update did the trick, but here's hoping! After all, 15 bucks is a lot of money to spend for unplayable maps.
