alright, halo 1 combat evolved for pc is a great game, it's even better on online (multiplayer) but the thing is... whenever i get online (multiplayer.. internet) and i hit the button at the bottom left hand corner of the screen that reads """get list""". i wait a few seconds... then appears this little box in the middle of the screen that reads,'''an error has occured trying to contact the gamespy master server'''' does ny1 know how i can make it stop doing that and be able to play online again? it's really tickin me off!


Find your problem.
You should be able to find the answer there.

My first guess would be a firewall you have enabled.

I'm there but, man this is really starting to sound like communism.
Long live the MAW.

well, check to make sure that your connected to the internet before trying to go on multiplayer. dunno if that's the problem, but whenever I try to go onto multiplayer without connecting to my router first, the same error pops up.

Are you using a CD code from a CD you purchased and have in hand or are you using a "borrowed" code that someone else might be using?

Also, you need to install the 1.07 patch for the game and not just for the server.

OK I'm assuming you found the link and manually downloaded and installed it. That errro would pop-up before the Get list so I don't think that is it.

So now I'm going to concentrate on the network connection. Since you can connect to the internet just not Gamespy Master server I'm going to lean towards a firewall issue. How is your network setup? Is it dialup or DSL? What does the wire from outside connect to? Where does the signal go from there to get to your computer? Do you have wireless in your house?

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

You will likely get better assistance from the forum regulars in The Maw.

That is the forum dedicated to the PC versions of Halo.

Standby for thread relocation.


Yes, we forum regulars know all. Such as how to flame quickly, form bands for ganging up on others, and cry to the heavens the gospel of the PC's superiority.

Welcome.
