for some reason the maps district and turf just give me a hard time...i run them at about 50 FPS as compared to other maps that i run at 180. is anybody else having this problem? Ive tried tuning down graphics and this still doesn't help. most comments welcome...

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

It's diffirent for me, any map that has rain, fog or snow the framerate drops on me.

Mainly Lockout, Backwash, and Warlock.

What is your current graphics card?

Slaying noobs since 2007.

You still aren't doing bad with 50 fps.

For people like me who get that at 800x600 with everything off in Halo PC, I'd say that's damn good.

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.

I get less then 30 FPS on those maps sometimes. Microsoft support told me it's my CPU (too slow) and not the graphics card.

my system is a C2D 2.4, 4 gigs of RAM, XFX 256mb 7900GS. I an running vista basic 64-bit (to allow for 4 gigs of RAM). I have a 630w PSU, all in an antec 900. peak temps are like 75'c (thats as high as ive seen it get). The FPS sometimes drops to like 25, and often LOOKS much lower. could it just be bad map coding? thanks for all your comments so far...

Your complaining about getting only 50 FPS? I'd kill just to get that in Halo 1!

Dude, I run 25- 35 fps standard. If this is why people are saying "the game sucks at compatibility" cause they can't run it on 1080p at 100000fps, then I've just lost all hope in the MAW.

Most of the PC issues posted here are the result of PEBKAC.

Try raising the priority in the task manager. Sometimes Above Average will do it, but other times Realtime may be needed.

I'm gonna try that. Thanks for the tip :)

NOOOO Not Realtime.

Above normal and High if you have to. Realtime will pretty much freeze everything else and cause staibility problems.

trust me...i love the game and laugh at the pathetics who scorn halo 2 for its "compatibility issues." I have no complaints at all with the game...just question. I'm not complaining about getting ONLY 50 FPS...im just wondering why. so far...people's comments have been, for the most part, very enlightening for me as well as others. the task manager tip is gold. thanks for that one, Vincent5. and thank for the warning not to raise it to realtime, wakeboy...

I get higher FPS on Turf, actually. District is normal for me. I dunno why it's giving you problems.
