Re: Champions DLC doesn't work in Spartan Ops

: Armour data was stored in the map files to reduce loading times when loading
: it from the disc (same with weapons and vehicles). Halo 4 however requires
: a mandatory install right? So they can be assured that they can load MP
: map data from the much faster harddrive and so can store that stuff
: separately. (And just once)

: Or that's the basic theory. I don't know why they'd not be doing the same
: thing for Spops.

I think they're still patched into all the separate .map files (hence the size of this TU). Spartan Ops not supporting the new armor is probably related to the fact that it's on the campaign engine. The campaign engine maps are going to be redlining the available memory.

Even if the armor was centrally stored, it all has to be loaded into memory at some point.

This situation should be a good indicator on why the new Reach armor was cancelled.
