Subject: Post your complaints about the maps, rank reset, and any other comp...

Inside the Mind of Halotitan Help me get expand my mind.

Post here for the love of god, quit spamming the forum with the same topics. Make this an official thread. If you don't like this thread then here's some links to a bunch of threads that have said the same stuff before. Complain about your maps, about the ranks being reset, why you think life is unfair, I don't care, just stop clogging the front page with the same thing, we want to read something new (at least I do)

Call me Wolfie | My anti-drug
New Flood for life <3

We’re looking back laughing because they called us crazy, but we took that chance on that feeling, living for the moment, we were spinning in. Maybe we were a lot of things, but we weren't crazy.

AHaha! I know, there are about 5 threads with the same topic about the maps right now xD
Good idea :D

1) Why are only team-based playlists ranked?
2) Removing rumble pit from the ranked gametypes doesn't make any sense to me.
3) I liked rumble pit .

4) Rumble pit has a completely different dynamic than any kind of team game.
5) One-on-one has a completely different dynamic than either free-for-all or team-based gametypes.
6) Rumble pit should be reinstated as a ranked gametype.
7) One-on-one should be reinstated as a ranked gametype.

8) Why were they removed anyway?

9) oh yeah, and bring back Multi-team. Multi-team was great!

Reason rumble pit is not ranked is because there is not enough people playing halo 2 anymore so they made less matchmaking play lists ranked to condense the people so waiting for a game would not take as long.

Wow finally someone did something useful to condense the spamming and he gets blacklisted. Anyways while we are in the new condensed thread I'll go ahead and post the most common problem solutions. Problem number one seems to be failed payment. If you are on an original xbox make sure you have premium content enabled and a non expired credit card or a debit card with sufficient funds. If you are on a 360 then you need to link a cc to your gamertag.

One of the other main complaints seems to be that the downloads are too slow. I have this problem also but we must realize that everyoen is trying to download the maps at once so the servers may be getting overloaded with traffic. If you have any other questions instead of complaining please state your problem and ask for help or call 18004MYXBOX if you really need help.

EDIT: Also if you are getting the installation error this is also most likely due to the overload of traffic. Just continue trying or try again later.

The amount of LAG experienced in Halo2 is now to the point of being stupid. What have you all done to the game? I can play any other online, multiplayer game and have a great time with ZERO lag. I play Halo2 however, and the LAG is tremendous. It has taken all of the fun out of the game. You have to do something about it.

Funny thing is, he was banned for spamming.

Aside from that, I agree with all three of you that just posted.
Team Slayer has become all swords, noob combos, quitters, de-levelers, stand-byers, etc. Thats why I started to play Rumble Put because you relied on no one except for yourself.

I understand being pissed off but if your entire xbox has been banned then it is xbox you need to call. If bungie banned you then maybe you were palying with cheater/boosting/cheating yourself/or there was a glitch in the new banhammer that I'm sure will be sorted out if you didn't do anything.

I do not think that is the reason. I never had to wait vey long for a match. I'm having to wait longer today, as a matter of fact, than I had to yesterday.
According screen crawl, there were:

410,000 games played in the last 24 hours.
225,000 players were on in the last 24 hours.
28,000 players (minus me) are on right now.

I'm not positive, but I don't think that's the kind of loss of interest that would require "condensing" the player base. It'd be nice to look back and see stats for the same 24 hours a year ago, though: Maybe last year 500,000 of us we were playing a million games a day, 60,000 at a time.

-blam!-, maybe we were!

But even if the player base has diminshed, I don't think thats a good reason to have only team-based gamestypes in the ranked playlists.

Yeah, I'm pissed about the whole Rumble Pit thing. If you wanted to brag about your rank at all, that would be the one to brag about, not Team Slayer and -blam!-.

Bungie is digging themselves into a hole. It seems almost as if there's going to be millions that hate Bungie before Halo 3 even comes out. This may have a huge impact on the sales of H3. Not looking good.

You say not looking good. Is that really going to stop you from being what is hyped to be the best game of the year? Even if bungie said no more halo 2 matchmaking at all I would be extremely pissed off but you know what? It would just make me more anxious to get Halo 3.
