I was successful in setting up a Halo2Vista dedicated server on an extra Win2K server I have. So I'm going to be setting up a weekly MAW H2V Gathering to see if we can get some regular games going and begin to build this community, despite M$. The first thing I need to know is what kind of gametypes & varients you guys would like to see. Make some suggestions and we can test them out to see how they run. I will definately include Hog Wars on District cuz that is so fun but I'm taking suggestions for the rest. One thing I will not do is have SMG start on Coagulation because that is just worthless.

The server is a dual 900Mhz PIII with 1MB of RAM so I'm not sure how its going to perform which is closer to the minimum then I would like. Its also going to be behind my cable connection @ 800kbs upload until I can find someone that has a FIOS connection and see if I can put it in there house.

Stupid parents let their stupid children play games that are rated M when they should be playing Big Birds Spelling Adventures

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

1MB of RAM???

No heavy weps matches! I think that's a given. :-p

Sweet, FIOS rocks. I could get 2 gb of RAM, get Vista, then I could play Halo 2, o.O. I might soon. Depends on how things go...

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.

Depending on my own situation, I may get Halo 2 Vista. MAYBE, only.

Hello! Star Wars FTW. Also, join the MAW group. Please?

What's the name of your server?

Now that I see the zombies gametype, makes me want to buy the game....

Slaying noobs since 2007.

A real specific game I find pretty fun is all swords on Sanctuary (FFA) with 10 minutes to 25.

To me, thats not really fun, on CE, it's way worse, you can't even lunge correctly >.>... So I could find out what's the difference on Halo 2...

Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphors have two parts : form and interpretation; of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom being the briocoleus, the mason.

OK well I have some ideas so I'm going to work on creating a playlist. I just looked at the list of gametype customizations and it was staggering. I should have a playlist setup and ready to go by Thurs. so thats when we will have the Gathering. I'll make a new thread announcing it later.

What exactly is the SWAT varient? I know its no-shield and BR start but what else is unique about it. Also someone asked to do MLG gametype so if anyone knows what those setting are let me know.

UPATE! A Games for Windows LIVE update to be more specific. They released one in the last few days. Unfortunately they never think to post a patch for the Halo 2 dedicated server so.... the MAW server will be down until they do.
