Subject: H2 Has been left for Dead!

Wtf? H2 isn't " dead .

Many people still play H2, and besides H3 is better. And h1.

But that's beside the point. There are still hundreds of thousands of people who still play H2 everyday. And H2's attention hasn't reached 0? Wtf, where did you get that?

H2 IS NOT better than H3, or anywhere near. And H1 beats both, because it's better, it's full, and it's much more fun than any other one. I rest my case.

Well to be honest man I don't think your case has done enough to deserve a rest really.
Firstly, realise that what you state so strongly as what "is better" is purely your own opinion and the reasons for which you justify it are hardly convincing, your opinion doesn't reflect that of many of the community, especially those posting on this forum.

Secondly, don't make the mistake of supoosedly "quoting" figures that are far far from the truth. "Hundreds of thousands" everyday? In a word: Complete and utter balderdash sir!
As a matter of fact, the number of players per day for at least the last 3 weeks has never exceeded 25,000 (that's twenty five thousand just in case you were having trouble ;) and has no more thant 5,000 at any one time.

Thirdly, H2 has had 0 (Zero) attention since the release of H3, and if you believe that not to be the case please inform me.

Fourthy, (in answer to "WTF where did you get that") I got it from playing H2 a fair bit, browsing bungie.net and being observational of blatant things

Halo 2 is so much better. So much more fun, without question. H2 FTW!

H2 was considerably more fun for me. I don't know if it was the maps, the teams I played with, the BTB Skirmish, or just the overall feeling of the game, but I would much rather play h2 than h3. If I could have it my way, h3 online would be taken down and everybody would go back to h2.

As a campaign only player, gotta give props to H-2.
Massively long levels that added new dimensions without subtracting.

Technical issues make H-2 better than H-1, but, both campaigns are superior to 3.
(And that's flippin great anyway)

My "No die" attempts in the first two games metered in the hundreds.

H2 is not dead, I still play it vigorously.

Indeed, I agree. It isn't dead, yet has been left for dead.

I'm a dude playing a dude desguised as another dude. I hate heritics, non-logical thoughts and people who are better than I am. People tell me that they like a lot of games, but I hate them all. Whenever I play a video game, I always go crawling back to Halo 3. Never go full retard!

You know what? You're right! They should update playlists and stuff to accomidate this new burst of inactivity!

Don't get so worked up, man.

We're all here, and we all have our own experiences.
And they were great ones.
I still pride myself on executing Honor Guards with a pistol.

But things change and stuff happens
All the onus is on H-3.
And that's cool.
Because no one can ever take away the mad fun we've all had on H-2.
It's the stuff of legend now.
And (best part) it's still ours to have.
We're all here remembering.

Halo 2 sucks...halo 3 is way better...and bungie is never going to update halo 2...200k+ ppl are on halo 3 and what 4000 are on halo 2? lol...and all halo 2 was hacking/modding/standbying...i swear if you went into double team you will get standbyed alot...H2>H3 H2=garbage.

  • 07.08.2008 9:06 PM PDT

Campiagn Kill Count :31,745. And growing.

The Revisionaries- One of the greatest screenshot groups on B.net. With 250 members and growing.

I wish more people would come back to Halo 2.. Team Slayer, Snipers, BTB and SWAT are the only playlists it's easy to find poeple. And Team Training.

Other than that, you can be searching for people for hours with no results. It sucks.

When I go live someday, you can bet on finding me as one as many players for Halo 2.

Until then, I'll just enjoy the campaign of both, Halo CE and Halo 2.

You must be forgetting that I have a lag switch in real life. Automatic win. Im like a DBZ character....except Im not allergic to barbershops.

Ahh I remeber it like it was only yesterday. Those times werethe best I've ever had on a video game. Me and a few buddies would just chill in the lobby for hours at a time talking about senseless garbage. Good times, good times.

Good ole days

Halo 2's online quality was garbage compared to Halo 3 online. There was no protection against modders, hackers, and network exploits (IP flooding, standbying, etc), not to mention the plethora of unfair glitches players could exploit to give themselves an unfair advantage. (I think that's why a majority of BR molesters here hate the Halo 3 BR--it has no glitches, thus making the user rely solely on their own skill and aim)

The weapons were highly imbalanced, as well.

Halo 3 has fixed the majority of those problems, while reducing the effects of the rest. The weapons are also much more balanced in Halo 3; all the weapons work in their respective corridors (Battle Rifle/Carbine is midrange only), as well as giving players a spawning weapon they actually have a chance with.

Mind you, Halo 2 was fun in it's time, but it has been eclipsed by it's successor, the mighty oak that is Halo 3.

There is only one thing I will give Halo 2 that it has over Halo 3; and that is Campaign. It is my favorite out of all 3 halo games.

You couldnt get hard modded moron i can mod h3 right now and i can still IP flood you in H3... As i was going to say is f.uck bungie for not keeping the H2 community alive it's by far better than the competitive lack of H3

H3 is Uber easy to get a 50, therefor getting a 50 doesnt really mean anything, there is no competitive gameplay in H3 -blam!- stupid AR and other -blam!- bungie -blam!- up on. And H2 has a good ranking system btw it looks cooler and there was good competitive gameplay.
