    I loved the Noble Map Pack so much but I was disappointed with this one:

    Condemned - 5/10 - Looks like a great map and is built well but plays very badly. The map is confusing and it turns into a chase around the map. The only redeeming feature is the spectacular view that one of the windows has. Highlands - 4/10 - Looks like a superb map that you might find on Halo 2 but in fact    I loved the Noble Map Pack so much but I was disappointed with this one:

    Highlands - 4/10 - Looks like a superb map that you might find on Halo 2 but in fact turns into a frenzy around the teleporters. The middle of the map is unused and that is down to poor design and poor weapon and vehicle inclusion and placement.

    Unearthed - 7/10 - A good Firefight map that plays well, looks good but lacks opportunities for tactics. On the whole a good map.    … Expand

    A great pack for general dabblers, then, if not huge value for fans of specific modes. [June 2011, p.81]

    The three new maps are nicely balanced and will attract those that are addicted to the Halo: Reach multiplayer. If 343 Industries can keep this up then the Halo franchise is sure to have a great future.

    The Defiant Map Pack is our first official look at the creations of someone other than Bungie, and I'd say the franchise is in good hands. The maps deliver exactly what fans expect: great design, beautiful artwork, and fast-paced action. Yes, the Firefight map could benefit from another vehicle but otherwise, if you're a Halo: Reach fan, this purchase is a no-brainer.
