Subject: Help from an official source at Bungie? (H2V)

Posted by: Nessy

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

Nice post.

Would also be nice to get some word about button glitches macro'd and if Bungie plans to leave the game as is, or remove these cheats. It is one thing to learn the button combos and do them on a controller, but these combos can be performed with 1 button on a mouse. Very troubling.

I also want to know why Bungie posted alot about H2V in the beginning and now doesn't mention anything. And why doesn't Hired Gun have a real website with information faq etc... It's hard to take this game seriously anymore.... Turns out more and more to be a bad joke....

I regret to say I cannot help you, but I do know this would do much better in the 'Halo 1 & 2 for PC' Forum. You are much more likely to receive your answers there.

I figured that this should be posted somewhere besides the Maw, as we have yet to get an answer there. Alright, here's the deal...

We've been hearing a lot of bad information about Halo 2 Vista. We were officially informed the day of release (May 8th) by Microsoft of a push back on the release date to May 22nd. When May 22nd came, most of us failed to find Halo 2 on sale (although some did have it in their area). The game has been listed by some stores as being released early June. It's now the 23rd, and I'm hearing that a recall has been ordered. There has not been a single word about any of this in the news, and Hired Gun hasn't said anything but sorry about the push back.

Seeing how Hired Gun posts all of it's information through blog, I was wondering if someone at Bungie could please enlighten us as to when the game will be shipped to the rest of the stores. It would also be nice to know if the recall rumor is true or not.

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

Yep. It got moved, so now it will be ignored just like our entire forum is. >.<

I think the entire point of posting this in the Community forum was to let somebody outside know we are pissed. Seeing as nobody really cares.

That was the point. Sadly, it was moved. Twice!

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.

The best way to show Bungie you don't like their silent treatment is to not buy their stuff! Othewise they're going to string you along like this forever, because we prove they can.

I couldn't resist. lolz @ double move.
It's quite simple, Bungie doesn't care because MS doesn't care.
MS doesn't care because they can't force you to pay to play the game; every PC game EVER has been free to play as online-multiplayer. To change this would result in a total boycott of the product. So they are producing Halo 2 Vista as cheaply as possible; this involves as few people as possible getting the terrible news that THE GAME -blam!- SUCKS BALLS.
Seriously guys, I play EveOnline trail accounts now. -blam!- Halo.

Or, you could just continue playing Halo 1 on either Xbox or PC and help keep it alive. It is and always will be such a great game. Besides which, I got Xlink running, so if anyone wants to play some Halo 1 games on there send a friend request to Rhe7oric on Xlink ( I havent worked with this thing much so a bit of help is needed to get a host running too.)

It appears shadowrun is turning out to be just as bad as Halo 2 V, if not worse in some ways.. To quote a developer: There are no custom game types, settings, or modes. That just killed it for me, what's the point of having dedicated servers if they cripple them...

Games for windows Live so far is quite the train wreck, I'm just waiting for something to put it out of it's misery.

And there is just as much irony in yours, considering how this thread was originally posted in another forum and was moved to this one. You should have read the thread.
