Subject: New Halo 2 Update has Dedi Servers down!

Well, they did it again. They put out a new update and didn't give us a downloadable file for the Dedi Servers. All at ES are looking for a way to get the Dedi back up, but so far we have failed. Guess well have to wait on M$ to get the manual download out. Sry to all the fans of our server. ES Clan Server will be up ASAP.

If anyone has a solution please post it.


Thank You,

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time. I know who you are. You are destiny.

Bump for great justice.

Someone, help Sypher out, because I know nothing of the patch.

I guess you can either wait or somehow e-mail and complain.

Perhaps give M$ a ring and hope the lady at the phone will be able to help?

Pfft, as if, the call centres for MS are useless.

Yeah, I'm wasting my time trying to be optimistic.

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

There's an update?

It only updated a few Windows LIVE glitches, nothing more.

It's actually linked to from the Halo 2 support page, but the text wasn't updated to make it clear that they were talking about the new update.

http://www.microsoft.com/games/halo2/

Click the support tab at the bottom and look for the heading "Games for Windows - LIVE latest update".

Anyway, glad to hear you're up and running again, apologies for the downtime.

Glartwort,
Thanks again for the info. I guess things were just poorly laid out for implementing this update. Sorry to be so anti Microsoft but after the long delay for the release and sign in problems with Dedi Servers. It's been... well... frustrating to say the least. The Clan and I waited for the release down to the day and then was told we had to wait even longer. Don't get me wrong im a huge Halo 2 PC fan, as is the rest of our clan. There are a few things we would like to see fixed (Mostly just glitches) but overall the game is awsome. Multiplayer gameplay is (in my opinion) the best out there.

P.S. Please join us on the server sometime, that is, if you play?

Peace,
