Bungie what in the friggity fook fook HAVE U DONE 2 THE GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME??? U suck you FRIGGITY FOOK FOOK SELL OUTS!!! WHY change what was NEAR PERFECT? OMG, what were U THINKING??? This is just another drowned out frag fest like those unoriginal dual wielding machine gun games like Unreal Tournament or Time splitters with a flashy HALO skin! This game eternally blows, if Halo 1 had not ever been released, then yes, maybe this game would stand out among all the other wastes of time, of this washed out genre of videogame. The mechanics freakin SUCK SUCK SUCK!
Halo 1 had its few problems, but what made it stand out amongst the rest of FPS’s was the fact that this wasn’t just another Golden eye; which was duplicated ten fold hoping for someone to catch that magic ( All the BS Bond sequels, Time splitters, Unreal T, ect…). It was a game with team objectives and tact and skill you acquired through practice and discovery. You didn’t have cheats in the game initially; players had to find different ways to use maps to their advantages. Throwing a grenade from a distance just past a sniper rifle or grenade launcher and blowing the weapon to you and catching it in the air in the middle of a frag fest when it counts; is skill incarnate. Timing and then firing a rocket across Blood Gulch while the opposition has the flag in a hog and blowing them to kingdom come is pure GLORY!!! but where is the skill in “locking on”??? It’s almost as if every aspect of skill and tact you could develop as a player in Halo 1, has been completely taken out of Halo 2… why Bungie, WHYYYYYYY???
There were only a couple things that needed some alterations in Halo 1… not a bootlegged revamp of the overhaul you’ve done to this backwashed game. Halo 1 obviously would have been a better game if it were online; hell gamers cried out so much for it to be, WE developed a way for online gaming to be possible. So you answering with LIVE; ingenious, and SUPER job on eliminating some of the hassles that are associated with online play (lag, peeps quitting, peeps betraying, host changes, communication). Major kudos, because LIVE makes this game worth keeping; but did anyone in your development squad play on XBC or Gamespy; the backdoor system link? These two programs are the mediums for your gamers… Where the gamers choose what they deem fit… What did “your” gamers always play? TS and CTF!!! What in the hizzell are these bogus game types you provided on live and the noobie settings that go along with them??? Weak Weak Weak! Live is one of the few concepts that Halo 1 needed and you came though and provided; but which team of NOOBS set up these gametypes??? HOGwash gentleman… HOGwash!
Second, on the list that could have made HALO 1 a much better game; would have been multiple characters to choose from, or character customization. Why do you think RED vs. BLUE was so popular? Hell, the parody is almost uncanny. They gave your bland character the four different shades of red or blue; vibrant individual personalities on a team of the same color and character. You answered back perfect. Symbols and ONE other player to choose from the Spartan is a great idea… well a good idea at least but your heart was in the right place. What else did Halo 1 need…? Well a less redundant repetitive 25+ hour campaign, combos to add some flavor to the melee attack (not toning the melee down and making the initial hit look so damn weak), tracking stats just to see how you perform against others (Luv that by the way, gents!), headset compatible ( thanks;) ), and downloadable content. That’s it, nothing more, nothing less was to be expected of Halo 2 in the least. Many of these problems were addressed… and what U SHOULD have done was just recycle the original games feel and mechanics and answered only the problems that needed addressing. THAT’S IT!!! LEAVE THE REST THE FIZOOK ALONE! Instead you changed the entire feel of such a wonderful game. What the hizzel happened to the grenades, does MASTER CHIEF have a gimpy arm like NEMO’s gimpy fin?! The rocket launcher is just plain bootleg now, and OMG, what the fizook happened to the beloved MELEE??? Where’s the emphasis? The MELEE was sooooo original in the first game, damn did you mess that one up. All this game is; IS MORE FIREPOWER, LESS HEALTH! No TACT what so ever…
I had my copy of the LIMITED reserved so when the opportunity came to play Halo 2 early with a downloaded copy, the drill sergeant didn’t have to tell me to jump! I was soooooooo anticipating this game and how much better the original could be... But I was WARNED!!! THE GAME SUCKS! THE MELEE RUINED! WHAT MADE HALO, HALO; HAS BEEN TAKEN OUT… were some of the taunts. I didn’t believe them until I played the pirated French version. HOW MANY OF YOU REAL GAMERS OUT THERE THOUGHT THIS VERSION WAS JUST A BETA??? I hoped with a lot of heart that this wasn’t the final release and that there was more to it than that. BOY WAS I WRONG! The E3 demo of the campaign was simply amazing. The level looked so immersive and spectacular with all the different things going on in the background; it literally looked like an all out assault on Earth which called to arms many of us gamers. AWESOME! But none of the levels in the campaign are anywhere near the level of detail that THAT DEMO WAS… and how long ago was that demo released??? And the campaign is sooooo short. And you think unbalancing the game in LEGENDARY makes the games play time longer? How about actually making the game itself LONGER not impossible unbalanced enemies where you have to shoot and then wait until your shield recharges and then shoot again, what a pointless cycle. The enemy weapons should have the same effect as if you were holding them, AND THEY DON’T! It’s not challenging, it’s a waste of time and not fun. And what the FIZOOK is up with the way screens are divided; without a way to change it back??? Have you played Perfect Dark? (GGOAT) At least the option was in here, what are you trying to do give us TUNNEL VISION? BS, BS, BS!!!
I’m GODLY at the original, and more than likely one of the few peeps online that has taken out each member of the dream team on a consistent basis. And now any NOOB can hold there own with me and the other GODS I play with in this WEAK new game of yours. Yes, I might out pace them in kills and metals but whippity freakkin doo da! It sure isn’t fun to play. This game no matter how many games I’ve played; I just don’t get that same rush of blood or adrenaline when playing these team games. There might be a tad more balance to the players who acquired skill and those that just started playing but where’s the fun in that??? OUR skill was acquired through practice and patience for our love of the original… a lot of those moves weren’t initially for everyone to catch, but once you did catch them; DAMN that game was fun. And now any freakin NOOB can pick up two machine guns and run around the level with their head chopped off like a chicken and kill peeps or take the rockets and LOCK ON and knock vehicles out of the sky!!! NO SKILL NO TACT should be the slogan on this game. This game reeks with unoriginal boredom. It’s a freakin CARBON COPY of any frag fest title with a HALO skin slapped upon it with a few bells and whistles (LIVE, communicator, and stats) Like I said earlier… IF IT WASN’T FOR LIVE… All you had to do was add the few things gamers wanted (LIVE, STATS, longer immersive campaign, character customization, couple of new weapons, and delete the options for starting pistols) and leave everything else ALONE!!! You want proof Halo 2 sucks, Take Halo 1, re-release it with LIVE and some of the Maps from Halo 2 and leave everything else the FIZOOK alone and see what game is played more… Not too many people remember the games of the same genre after Golden eye; save Perfect Dark. Perfect Dark got it right when it comes to sequels; you should have followed suit with their formula. DON’T FIX WHAT’S NOT BROKE, U SONS OF FOOK FOOKS!!!
