i don't get host (i have a 126 kb internet speed) and i go 14-10 i get host i can go like 34-3. i don't know if there is another way to provide host but if there is they should change it! some of these Americans have like a 3 mb upload speed! thats like lan. for those of us in Australia and NZ it sucks yet we still seem to get to 25-30 in team slayer GIVE THE HOST TO THE PROS! not to the americans

The host is whoever starts the game, you cant just give it to someone.

Too bad for you.

Actually, host does not make you better. the reason that when you get host the other team sucks really bad is because your net connection is not sufficient to be host. to the other player's it will actually seem like they are being stand byed. the reason is your connection doesnt have enough bandwidth to cope with the other players actions so what ever they do is usually a good .5+ second behind you. after a while Halo 2 will probebly lock you out from being host mainly because it thinks your stand bying (same thing happend to me) however, you dont need to worry about being banned for it.

I never called anyone a noob. Also it happens that Americans made the Halo series.

The main reason you do so good with host is because your host sucks, you said it yourself you have a 126 kb internet speed, therefore whoever is playing against you feels like they are being standbyed.

yo legend calm down wow. umm again the reason americans get host is b/c the majority of players are....americans so there is more chance of us(americans) then you guys even though other continents and countries have alot faster internet espacially europe and asia that makes our internet fastest spped for public use like crap so yea and so yea. plus not all americans are fat majority yes but some of us just do it to pass the time. ......like other people do cause some of us dont have cars etc.. to enjoy the finer things in life

That was totally uncalled for. I'm American. Am I fat? No.

Please, cut the stereotypes. Notice no one in here is stereotyping your nationality, please don't do that to us.

Now, the majority of the people playing are from America, the centralized server is located in America, so it's natural that we get host. And I know it sucks for you guys because it feels really laggy every game, but the majority of the people playing are from the U.S.

Honestly there's nothing that can be done other than to deal with it. I'm not trying to be harsh- I'm trying to be real. In a month, Halo 3 will be here and you can choose some connection options to better suit your online experience.

What is it with all these posts about americans and host, trash-talking, etc... It's like someone's on 4 different accounts or something.

It is pretty funny. One of my best friends is British and he's a really cool guy. I've never had a problem with British people, but it's like after hearing smack talk from one snotty kid they think all Americans are like that.

I've met plenty of rude British people on Live as well. And lots of cool ones. But it doesn't matter where you're from, it's who you are as a person that counts.

I dont care what nationality, race, or religion someone is. Ive met americans that are complete asses and some australians that are awesome. vice versa, ect. Its how you choose to act that makes people mad or like you. No one (or i hope not) just outright hates another country.
