Subject: Halo 2 Vista Glitches Fixed???

Big Bucks No Whammys!!

I was just wondering if Bungie will fix any of the problems with Halo 2 before they ship it to Vista? Things like super jumps, weapon glitches, such as BXRs and BXBs. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

In our previous discussions, the conclusion comes to "hopefully."

I actually hope not. I love going on the original maps with a few of my friends and trying to figure out every glitch and such. They proabably fix most of them, if not all,becase Mods and such will be making their own glitches and superjumps.

LOL, im sure that Microsoft or Bungie or w/e will make sure there are NO glitches, if there were it would make the game look bad and it would seem like the game did not have alot of time or effort put into the game. More the less... poorly made.

Your completly roght. Even if Bungie fixes all the gitches somebody somewhere is gonna find a glitch Bungie overlooked because no matter how much you try theres gonna be a glitch in a game.

Too true.. even Quake 3 Arena's gotten years worth of patching... Quake 4 would take decades... oh burn. =P

Lmao, anywho, Like others have said... hopefully they're out. The junk like the six shot burst with the battle rifle would be too easy on a tap of the mouse, so if they didn't remove the glitches... they'd have exploitation supreme..

The question whether or not all the bugs and glitches will be fixed is irrelevant--it's not possible. Games aren't made perfectly, and thus, you'll always have errors and glitches in them.

The point of the matter is to make sure those glitches and bugs don't affect the game to the point of imbalanced game play. Button glitching? Superbounces? That's definitely imbalanced. Already adding to the fact that the game itself is imbalanced.

Some of the Glitches are. But some, like getting above or below levels are fun to do but don't give you an advantage. The bad ones, like triple weilding should be gotten rid of. But since you can't get rid of all of them, why not leave the fun ones.

I still agree with yur statement though.

Don't say triple wielding. That gives off the tense that you're holding and using three guns at once. Though, I really wouldn't consider that a significant glitch since nobody in their right mind would carry an extra dual-wieldable weapon when they can carry a more powerful weapon in back up.

And they're glitches. They shouldn't be in the game in the first place.

Yes, but that probably isn't true. Although it seems ridiculous that Bungie would create so many glitches in not only the first game, but their second as well. I don't think we would find this as likely to happen in public betas like there are for many PC games.

As long as I can still BXR people, I don't care.

I don't think button glitching is going to go away. Someone will always find a way to get an edge if they do fix the animation canceling with X. Instead of BXR you can do BYYR. Instead of BXB you can do BYB.

As long as they don't touch the Plasma Pistol + Scull glitch, they can fix anything they want.

You don't think there will be a mod or tool for that?

Who cares if there will be! It will take time, and some people won't know how to find it. Theres no reason to remove it, so keep it. Also, it's not just for the camera, it's a tool to drop your weapon, both are very useful features in filming.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Err, what are BXR and BXB? Sorry.

They're names for glitches that correspond with the order of buttons on the Xbox controller that performs them with "R" being the right trigger to fire. BXR is a glitch that allows you to melee and fire nearly instantaneously and BXB is basically the double melee.

BxB on xbox is just harmless..It cancels the first b..
You were trying to do it with a full clip, weren't you?

Why bother with being able to hold two SMG's, then have one more as a backup? They're just popcorn guns. Triple wielding isn't that bad.

That's what I said. In almost any situation, nobody is going to want to hold more ammo for a weapon that sucks when they could be holding a battle rifle or something.
