Hello RG13,

I am sorry to hear you are having this problem. What region are you playing in and which specific modes are you trying to play in the Elite Playlist?

Re: Can't play DLC maps in multiplayer (times out everytime while loading)

Same problem of all people in this topic!
I live in Sao Paulo, Brazil and can't play in the elite playlists. When it is searching for a lobby it says that no lobby was found, even when it searches for all available lobbies!
My platform is the XBOX 360.

Re: Can't play DLC maps in multiplayer (times out everytime while loading)

Same thing here but I can still play some of the maps but I keep getting the same message. And it will only find a limited amount off games online. I'm in Queensland, Australia with Xbox 360. Elite premium member. Version 1.6.534.1

  Elite Premium, PS3 and Australia. EXACTLY the same problem. Why even bother with Elite and Premium when you cant play the maps? No games found the minute that DLC is enabled. I find a game within seconds once DLC is disabled. Come on guys.... SORT THIS OUT! The LAG is crazy since the latest update...

      Yes i have and still nothing. It's not just me, its pretty much all of my mates too. Party or no party, DLC games is a no-no irrespective of mode being played. Seriously, founder member and have played each of the new maps twice since first being launched. On the few times that it did find a game it is well above 150ms so really becomes unplayable. Running ADSL2+ at 10mb up and 1mb down so not a connection issue thats for sure1

        I'm getting this problem too. Has anybody found a fix to this yet? I was pretty stoked to get my ass kicked on totally new maps, but it doesn't seem like that's going to happen...
        
        I'm in Sydney, PS3, not premium.

Re: Can't play DLC maps in multiplayer (times out everytime while loading)

In my case (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, PS3) I can't play TDM with DLC enabled because searching for a lobby just goes on for about 1min without finding any lobbies and I am forced to disable DLC to play.(BTW I have only downloaded Piazza and Overwatch).

Re: Can't play DLC maps in multiplayer (times out everytime while loading)

I'm having the problem getting into any lobby with DLC enabled or disabled. I hadn't played in a while I'm an elite premium member and on ps3 but yesterday I downloaded the latest update 1.14 for mw3 and DLC drops for sanctuary and foundation and the access code. After I downloaded it and installed them u went to join a lobby in standard play list it searched about 5 mins and popped up a warning message saying "searching for DLC is taking some time" continue? Or disable DLC? I hit continue and it searched again and popped up the same thing so this time I hit disable DLC it searched again but couldn't get me into a lobby. It done this with every other play list available. So I went and checked my Internet and it was fine so how can this be fixed? I live in the southeast region of the United States.

Re: Can't play DLC maps in multiplayer (times out everytime while loading)

i have copy and pasted my comment on another thread i fixed it for my self by doing this.. PS3 hi i had the same thing till just now i fixed it by deleting the patch by going into game data and deleting all mw3 stuff and then strting the game
and it will ask you to reinstall 1.16 do that then go to store within mw3 and redowload face off maps free for whatever BLES code you have then after that re download you maps the problem was for me i didnt download the right BLES code for free face off maps and this affected the 1.16 patch recognizing my DLC collection 1
