Okay... I have Halo PC trial version. I keep making games, and nobody can connect to my games... even my friends tell me that they can't connect.

I don't understand why this is. I turned off all my firewalls, and changed my internet settings so that they accept pretty much everything.

Can anyone give me a clue to what's going on?

What does it say on your friends' game when they can't join?

if that doesn't work, try forwarding your ports.

It just says
Connecting to server ...
Retrying server ....
like 4 times before it stops.

It could be your NAT.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

If you have a router, refer to the documentation for it. You need to forward port 2302 UDP to your computer.

I GOT PEOPLE ON MY SIDE

What kind of router are you using.

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.

Also, remind your friends that Halo PC players can't join Halo Trial game servers. Just making sure on that, anyhow. Also,

FORWARD YOUR PORTS.
