When I play Halo it sometimes lags, even in a LAN game, infact in campain it sometimes lags. If Halo 2 is going to be much better, how will they take care of the lagging? I don't want less covenant just because they are smarter : it seemed to me when there were to many enemys in a campain level all loading and reacting and when there were too many dead bodies in Multiplayer that it would lag. If the level grafics (spelling) and the computer AI and everything else that has been upgraded has been (it seems like many time over), how will the XBOX handle so much code? Did i miss some new way they have the games load (in the weekly updates) or have they made it easier for the XBOX to load so much? If they have found a new way please tell me. Otherwise it is hard to believe that the XBOX will Handle it.

And a side question (so I don't post another one) I also get very frustrated when In halo if you turn with a weapon ( more recongnizable with the rocket launcher) while jumping and you shoot it, it seems to go off to the side, infact I was blowing up warthogs with two controllers on blood gulch using greenades and rockets and I would not be moving around ( by throwing a grenade and shooting the rocket launcher while standing still and the rocket would shoot horizontal (not even moving). It is like the XBOX would have a brain fart or something. Now have they fixed this in Halo 2, both the sudden loading and the continuous (spelling maybe) loading?

Not only would I like to see peoples discussions on this but I would like an ANSWER from bungie!

Its because in Halo 1 the framerate was set at 30 FPS, and it dips at times when too many things are going on at once.

Im not sure, Halo 2 is probably gonna run at 30 FPS, but im HOPING for 60 FPS!

Even campaign lags for you?! Wow your Xbox should be checked out. It has a 700mhz+ processor and it lags.... Mine never does. It only lags when I play online LAN on XB Connect.

Well try running through AOTCR back and forth. It hasn't happened to you at all especially in the room after all the open area (the four tanks area), just run into that room an shoot to wake up everyone and it doesn't lag. WOW, I am suprised. Try it. And on legendary to get the most enemies loading.

why do you write n/e to confuse people from Northern Wisconsin like myself?

can't you just write any? n/e vs. any they're both 3 letters. that's almost as bad as replacing letters with numbers. M@n, 1 48 t4053 p30p13.
