Subject: This is the worst game in History

If I worked for bungie I would ask for a bodyguard. The gameplay online is so erratic the word CONSISTANCY must be removed from all the dictionaries at their HQ. First they dont' have a server. Are we supposed to believe they can't afford it? EA and others have their own. Second is the cheating. Lets make a clear rule Bungie when you make Halo 3: IF IT IS NOT LISTED IN THE GAME MANUAL AS A MOVE IT'S CHEATING. period. No more surprises. No more glitches. Gears of War doesn't sporadically decide 1-3 shots with a sniper rifle kills an opponent. Madden 2007 doesn't allow hackers to Have 5th down and 10.

"A wise man once told me don't argue with fools, cause people from a distance can't tell who is who"

Madden only has to worry about hosting 2 people. If one person leaves then the game is over. In Halo when 1 person leaves then the game continues on. I haven't noticed the lagging and latency to be any better or worse than it usually is. I've been in Gears games where it's been really laggy, the same goes for Call of Duty. The fact is your trying to play against people over the internet who lives thousands of miles away. There will always be problems no matter what they do.

BTW: Frankie already answered that it would cost millions of dollars to set up the servers and you'd probably have to pay a monthly fee to play Halo online

Ostrich I really wanna sig you, but need some fresh stuffs.
So make with the funneh.

Bit­ch don't tell me what to do.

If you think it is the worst game in history why the hell do you play it. Why would you sign up for an account on Bungie. Your a 23 in Snipers so there must be something good about the game that you keep playing it. If you are going to complain about Halo, stop playing you dolt.

I see prison in your future.

The gameplay online is so erratic the word CONSISTANCY must be removed from all the dictionaries at their HQ. First they dont' have a server. Are we supposed to believe they can't afford it?

yup, and if they could afford it, my bet would be that we'd be paying to play halo online, and um, ya no thanks.


EA and others have their own.

They don't have nearly as many games being played as halo does, even to this day.


Second is the cheating. Lets make a clear rule Bungie when you make Halo 3: IF IT IS NOT LISTED IN THE GAME MANUAL AS A MOVE IT'S CHEATING. period. No more surprises. No more glitches. Gears of War doesn't sporadically decide 1-3 shots with a sniper rifle kills an opponent. Madden 2007 doesn't allow hackers to Have 5th down and 10. .

Every game has a glitch in it, and although I hate BXR and BXB, they are very easy to do, so if you can't beat them join them. Also your comparing Gears of war with halo. Gears is a great game but much different than halo, and also a football game with a first person shooter. I'm not even going to address your "cheating" questions involving those two games just because you compared things that are COMPLETLY different.

1st things 1st, xbox live can be random due to shoddy xbox live code provided by bungie, but there's still alot for skilled off host players to do. Secondly you have to know the difference between glitches in code and glitches in networking. BXB is a melee cancel melee which is completely a code glitch that Bungie know about and haven't fixed, and considering all competitive gamers know and use this then the balance is fine.

Dedicated servers can't be used because of the sheer mass of servers that would be needed to host easy load 400k+ 700k+ games would be insaine and wasful.
But I think that if you don't have an open NAT on your router then you shouldn't be forced host like now, also halo 2 does a very poor job at picking the best connection and this is why alot of people turned to bridging host, some to cheat but many bridged host just to give host to a good host.


Halo 2 isn't perfect on xbox live bungie have patched the game to some degree to make the game run well in matchmaking.

This is probably the last time I'll still up for bungie and I only did it because the original thread creator is speaking completely out of turn and has no idea of the concepts he complains about.


You talk so much sense! Hopefully the network coding will be more advanced in halo 3 and things will be better. Also matchmaking shoud start choosing host on who has the best upload speed, it should not choose depending on which ips can connect to each other and which cant. If someone cant connect to the person with the best connection in the game then they should be taken back to the lobby, and that would teach them to lower their firewalls/forward ports!

Yeah that's what I think. Campaign is a bit too short, not that bad though.

seriously, how many times does bungie have to say that superbouncing, network manipulation, and button combos are considered unfair, abusive and ultimately cheating. i cant count the number of weekly updates where frankie has stated this in some form, while at the same time poking fun at how ignorant and oblivious the cheaters are. you are disrespecting bungie when you say they dont consider it cheating. if you really like halo and bungie that much, then FOLLOW THEIR RULES WHEN YOU PLAY THEIR GAME

I love how people are such stickler's (yes spelt correctly) for spelling on this forum. You understand what he's attempting to say. These message boxes don't have spell check so cut the kid a break.

"If I worked for Bungie..." Sounds to me like you don't work at all. Otherwise you could afford a cable modem. All your problems are because your connection sucks. You want Bungie to fit the bill for YOUR connection by buying a server? Sorry dude. No free handouts. Get your fat a$$ off the couch and get a job.

Oh man is that true. ET sucked.

E.T. is the official "Worst Game of all time." I think E.T. was made in just a week if I'm not mistaken.

If it's such a bad game, then why do around a total of 80,000+ players still play it, even though it's 3 years old, and on original xbox? Answer that, if you don't then you don't really deserve to post here.

The online is more conssistant than Gears of War, Far Cry, etc.

It's funny, because Bungie is doing everything possible to stop cheating, nor is it their fault it happens. They have a feedback system, emailing system, they updated the banhammer too many times actually, and is now almost cheat proof.

My GT: ShadowzKiller
Check out my website for guides, lessons, and account leveling.
100% Legit Five Star General. No boosting, no cheating, just determination and skill. F/A for GB 09' and MLG '09.
Level 50 in LW, TS, TO, TD, RBTB, SQUAD, SWAT, MLG, Snipers, Legendary Brawl, Mythic Brawl & VDay. 48 in H2H and Living Dead.

I'm pretty sure Micro$oft can now afford servers; especially with all they money they hav made so far, and in the future. If quality was improved, I seriously doubt that many would be offended by some (not a lot like WoW) extra pay. Besides they would make more money and reduce some (not all) issues. They are simply too lazy IMO.

I'm not that active, but never dead.

Currently 48,461 Players Online in Halo 2 don't agree with you. That's some odds.

Edit: I actually LIKED E.T. It was sooo bad, it was actually entertaining. Kind of like William Hung.
