You may change your mind when you find that the majority of servers are playing on Coagulation with some boring game variant like Rockets or Swords.

The main problem is that many (at least 1/3 or more) ppl even cant connect live(as me), and others have problems with lagging, crashing etc... Thats main reason why so few player are in. If they fix live you can be sure that there will be MUCH MORE players than now...

So true. I'm sick of playing crappy rocket or exclusive weapon matches, theyre so boring and 2 dimensional.

Yeah this must be broke, it says a low number on mine although I'm able to jump into full games all the time.

there are way to many servers, there are only 2 or 3 servers with a decent amount of players in, which is annoying because every game is 16 player because everyone jumps in the games with most players

LOL There's a debate about this?

This game was dead when it was announced as a Vista only title. Not only was it a port of a 2 and a half year old game, it's only playable on a 2007 operating system. GG Microsoft. The connectivity issues aren't helping.

And I agree that the server game variants need some freaking help. I can't remember the naming convention but I think it was DServer18 which I was playing on yesterday and the rotation was like.. rockets, swords, swords, swatX, swatX, swatX, sword, sniper, sniperX, rocket, team SwatX, team fiesta... which, you know, is fun at first. After about 2 full rotations.......... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Boring for you, cool for me :D Because when I used to play H1PC (Before the no-text and freeze on intro movie) I only went to rocket/sniper only matches, and if it was Infi nades, the I would be in that server till it closes..

The quickmatch option also ALWAYS puts me in empty matches, it's so stupid.

Then it sucks for you :D But does not suck for me since I'm not getting H2V for a week or two, or *In a worried voice* even longer...

I don't know if time will "cure" the lack of players on H2V.

This is just my opinion but I think it's a fair assessment to say that most of the folks who wanted H2V have gotten it by now (yourself excluded), so I don't think we'll be seeing a substantial increase in amount of players as time goes on. If anything, I'm rather concerned we'll see the opposite because of the poor map and gametype rotations on the existing servers.

I honestly don't expect to see this title sell more units until Vista becomes more widespread and the game take a serious price drop. By then, since Halo 3 will be out, it may be too late. I'm sure there will always be a game or two running, but right now I already know some folks who have decided, due to the lack of players and the gametype problems, to leave H2V and go back to H2X for their multiplayer Halo 2 needs.

SO true. The nerve of these people, don't they realize I'm never going to get "Rainman" and "violent cartographer" this way?! :P

Slaying noobs since 2007.

Ah but snipers with a "BTB" like game going on is as tense as it gets. But I don't mind playing swords the only thing I don't like about it is the stupid slash/charge is really annoying.

What it is.

They need a patch badly. I know for damn sure more than 50 people bought this game. I swear that's all i ever see on, it's anoying because there aren't any good servers(i.e. they're all maxed at 16 players, which is stupid). They need more servers capped at 8, so it's 4v4, and maybe 12, servers that are all 16 are -blam!- cuz you get 16 players on maps like Midship and Lockout.

Heh, yeah. 16 players in a Shotty CTF match on Beaver Creek.
I think our average life span was 5 seconds after spawning.

Spawn
Run 2 feet, avoid grenade spam, BLAM!
Respawn in 5... 4... 3... 2.. 1...
or
Flag Taken! Flag Dropped!
Flag Taken! Flag Dropped!
Flag Taken! Flag Dropped! Flag Returned!
