Well, I have to agree that I have never, ever noticed any difference in Halo as a result of one of the patches, apart from 1.05 disabling the auto-patch update. Considering there have been 6 patches sicne Halo's release, or rather, 4, since 2 were made before Halo PC was actually released, you'd think there would be a huge long list of bugs, glithces and fixes, aswell as maps and extras which most other games gain from patching. Seriously though, if you gave me a retail copy of Halo and a 1.06 copy of Halo, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Graphics haven't changed, interface hasn't changed, content hasn't changed. To ask your consumer to patch a game 6 times for no apparent reason is a little extreme. For example, Homeworld 2. Only ever had one patch, which sorted out several pages worth of user-feedback on glitches, all of which were fixed, and they threw in some new multiplayer maps as a bonus. That's what a patch should be.

'Knowtest'? That's the worst yet coolest mis-spelling I've seen on the forums in ages. It looks nothing like 'Noticed'.

Ask Microsoft since they are ones that approves the patches for Gearbox. They may have even altered the patches when Gearbox sent it to them to get approve. As for Bungie, they're losing the PC community since I already downloaded all the Halo 2 cutscene so I don't care for it much.

I really hate to break it to all those who haven't realized it yet but Bungie is focusing 100% on Halo 2, and creating content for Halo 2, there will most likely be NO MORE patches for Halo PC, so just look towards the user created mods via Halo CE and hold out for Halo SE

Yeah truly sad..This game used to be played competetivly too..It has even been taken out of CAL and CPL because of the lack of support..Man I would even -blam!- pay for a patch..If any bungie people read this you guys are -blam!-s..Just drop a game because a new one came out..-blam!- halo 2 its a pos in my eyes I regret spending 60 on such a -blam!- game...


We need to make a petition and get like 2000 signatures then send it to bungie, I want this great game fixed.,.
