You dont need a credit card to get the new maps. All you need is $4. Everyone would know that if they read last fridays update! "simply buy a $4 Visa gift card at a supermarket. Bam!" Read the updates people!!!

Man I can't wait to get back online after the update and expect no cheating, then get standbyed the first game I play. Does anyone else sense deja vu? I'm pretty sure Bungie already made similar claims about their updates being able to halt cheating before, and as we all know, standby is practically part of the game. Mostly everyone I know quit this game a long time ago because of it. I really hope they get it right this time.

I cant wait to blow me up some fusion cores!!
I also like the idea that they are resetting the ranks, not that i care about my 34.(if i remember correctly it's not legit) I haven't played halo 2 in a very long time. I cant wait for the new maps, maybe I'll actually be pulled away from Oblivion and back into the intense battle that is halo 2.

Nice update. The resetting of ranks annoys me a little but I don't really know why I'm complaining, I never play ranked matches any more!

All things being said, I suppose I can't say this.

Blah blah blah.. Waaaaaa. cry....

Geez people, what are you? A bunch of spoiled little children who complain and complain at the first thing you don't like?

"Ohh Em Gee! Bungie is reseting the ranks. Well there goes my entire reason for playing Halo2! I might as well throw it away now!"

Seriously man!! Do you play Halo 2 for fun? I guess not, seeing as how you only care about your rank.

Bungie didn't have to do anything for Halo 2 seeing as how H3 is just around the corner. Yet they still support it! And what do they get in return? Crying.. complaining... whining... arrogant little kids. I know this doesn't apply to all who have posted in this update, but I see many.

Here's some advice. Grow the frick up! Be thankful that we have such a great game to play and thatg Bungie still supports it.

Thank you Bungie!!

Back on Topic
I loved the Update! I can't wait to play Halo 3 and I hope the Beta is announced next week.

Damn you roor!

the best thing I read was that they're resetting our connection host cache. I moved to where the internet is much faster and I feel like I'm not getting host ever cause of my old connec. which wasn't too great. Now they'll just judge me by my new ping and upload speed :)

Uh...overreaction?
You have to understand that ranks weren't really made for the purpose of people taking unbelievable amounts of pride in them and obsessing over them. Also, a lot of people's ranks are not hard-earned. I'm happy about this update because it'll give people a chance to start fresh. The people who had cheated for their level in the past and had felt bad can now try again legitimately and be satisfied with that feeling. Plus I love working up a level from scratch. It feels really cool, and I hate being too high of a level to want to go into Matchmaking (but I'm over that fear now).

there is absolutely no point to reseting the ranks... we sit here for 2 years trying to get as high as we can and as soon as i get a level 40 they sendout a message that says "o yea were about to screw everyone over and reset their ranks" the only good thing that comes from this is for the noobs that are the same level as everyone else and think they're good and then the good people have to waste more and more time just to get a rank that they already have that doesnt make much sense to me..... respond bungie team

This ranking thing I think has it's ups and downs but when you think about it there are going to be alot of cheaters now trying to get their legit lvl back. Plus, just think about this
-New halo 2 maps coming out
-New vidoc coming out
-New Anti cheat thingo mo bober update
-Beta announcement I smell coming

Those are all things you should be looking at not the ranks because thats halo 2 soon halo 3 going to be out!

how are you gonna stop any cheaters with this update? if it was anything like the last one it will just be a massive cheater brawl and no legit games..... can you stop people from bridging? couldnt you lag modders to be offline so the cant play matchmaking? could you not stop circle boosters? make feedback options these so you can monitor the games and see if they are doing what was given feedback on and if they are cheating.... BAN THEM!! there would be a smaller chance of any cheaters if you get rid of bridgers.... can you monitor that someone gets host 5-10 games in a row? if you cant then you should set something up... i really dont feel like playing after the auto update if you dont get rid of the cheating cuz everyone will be my level and i will get matched up with them and i will get cheated agains for my level.... respond bungie team

And 1 more thing.

The only reason I do this cheating thing
with the 2 day's.
Is because I love when you No Life Nerd's
are screaming
crying
saying -blam!- to us.

Because I know at the end of the day
you accomplished nothing.
With your High Level and in your so
Called Digital Life.

And in the Real Life All of you
High level Nerd's are Nothing

Yeah, keep trying to make yourself feel better about your cheating! No matter how you swing it, your the nerd that enjoys cheating at a game that is meant to be fun and enjoyable for all, I don't give a damn about my rank, but at the same time, don't want to lose it because of someone like you that doesn't know how to play legit and if you didn't have your standby, mods, and glitches: you would get OWNED every game you played! Nothing against your skill, but I'm sure your no higher than a level 20 legit.
