    Hi I just bought an xobx 360 console and as I'm new to it i'm hoping someone can give me help getting it up and running so i can play online.

    First of all i am online with it. I have played the co-op games and competitive. Since i wanna play call of duty online do i need to complete all the levels on the game offline in order to unlock the maps online?

    What do i need to do to basically join any online match i want? And what is system link? Keeps saying i can only play in this section with other users who are using the same system. All very confusing at this stage. :eek:

    They probably purchased the extra map packs and because you don't have them you can't join their game.

    Kinetic is 100% correct.

    Since you havent purchased the map packets you cant play the matches using them...:(

    Are you sure you are online? You dont need the extra maps to play games for starters. You can play games using the map that come with it for playing online. There are extra map packs available and you will be restricted from playing games with those but you can certainly play games online using the maps you got. If you are only getting the option of a system link then you arent connected to xbox live and able to seach for games to play. You should be in your own lobby and then joining a team deathmatch or whatever game type you want to play. System link is you playing with a mate joining 2 xbox's together which isnt what you are after.
