Do you think we are blaming the Hired Gun team a little too much?

Do you think they had too small a development team, or too little resources?

Do you think that they just plain screwed up?

Or do you think it was some other reason?

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Well, since Bungie ostracized(sp?) H2V, then there's pretty much nobody else to blame. :/

Anyone else find it weird that Hired Gun is not mentioned anywhere on the Halo 2 box? Maybe I'm missing it?

No we have the right to blame them, there are just a new company, you cant really expect great results from a company that has had very little to none experience

If we don't complain, they won't know what to fix when they make Halo 3 PC.

I'm not going to lie. Gearbox did a better job porting Halo to PC.

The few, the proud, the leet.

They were a group of contracted people by MGS. If there's anyone to blame, you need to go after MGS as they were the ones who specified what was to be done in the contract.

Were they responsible for the horrible achievements and the poor optimization for PCs (in both Halo and Halo 2 PC)?

QFT. Gearbox FTW.

And we have every right to blame this on Hired Gun, because, like you said, they screwed up. Just because this is probably one of their first times, doesn't mean we should cut them some slack.

Slaying noobs since 2007.

I don't think, I just react.

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

No the blame is with Microsoft. Hired Gun is literally like 5 people max.
