Wow, people are still complaining about host in Halo 2. Contrary to popular belief, ''Host'' does not make you stronger, there is no way, that having the main connection can make you stronger. That's just a sorry excuse for people that suck. Host MAY make your guns fire faster in Halo, but the difference is so little, it doesn't matter. If you want a reason to complain about host, go play Gears Of War, when the host has a T1 connection.
Wow, guy, you must have never played Halo 2 KNOWING that you have host. The difference is FAR from little. If you gun in the Gauss without host, yeah, you might kill someone, but WITH host, your accuracy dramatically increases, it takes less shots and you can practically SNIPE people with it. I'm not kidding. Try it in Coag and shoot someone with the Gauss from the side of the base all the way into the rocks on the sunny side. Host advantage is HUGE with the Gauss. With the sword, its much easier to kill and you rarely have that "WTF?" moment where you swear you slashed first but the guy didn't die. With Shotgun, you can kill with one shot from a further distance. The host advantage in Halo is no different than the host advantage in GoW. I've played both games and host advantage is powerful in both.
