Heyyo,

Aright guys, let's actually stop moaning and let's get Microsoft to try n' update HaloPC to what WE want.

http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp?from=cu&a mp;fu=%2Fisapi%2Fgomscom%2Easp%3Ftarget%3D%2Fmswish%2Fthanks% 2Ehtm

Ok, now, once you click on the link above, uner "Products", select "Games - Other".

Checkmark the boxes that you deem appropriate for what you suggest. For the suggestions I have below, I suggest checkmarking these boxes:

* Preformance.
* Networking or Connectivity
* Customization of Preferences


I say mention these statements:

* Fix map exploitations on Danger Canyon's base's back walls by separating them more.
* Fix map exploitation on Infinity to get ontop of level by using a banshee to leap out and croutch.
* Make weapon balance better by lowering rate of fire on fuel rod and make it do less damage.
* Make weapon balance better by lowering damage of fuel rod attached to banshee.
* Improve video optimizations more by better level geometry optimizations and particle effects optimizations.
* Fix crashing errors on map change.
* If possible, improve netcode for less warping, and fix the errors that HaloPC patch v1.06 caused.
* Change gamemode "race" default settings to "cumulative" scoring.
* Fix msxmenu text system bug where if you alt-tab out of HaloPC, and return to HaloPC the text messes up.
* If possible improve netcode by implementing Gearbox's netcode fixes for HaloCE onto HaloPC.
* Keep track of Macsoft's progress on Patches since Halo for mac patch v1.06 still hasn't been released.

Let's try n' make a difference guys.

Right on man!!! I recently wanted to try and get something done about the bad netcode and delay thing but im always pointed to gearbox or told theres nothing that can be done.

It only makes sense to go right to the top to the people who seem to be running the show. I just sent it in, you basically have got all the important problems listed right here mard.

I say that everyone on this forum does exactly what the mard says, were not gonna let this go any longer, so lets do this.

Heyyo,

Thanks for furthering the cause Silent Death. :)

We must all do this around the same time or they won't take us seriously! so c'mon guys! start-a-posting! :)

Microsoft handles all the tech support n' stuff for HaloPC, so they probably also handle the product feedback, which lead me to this idea, so yeah, spam if you have to, we must be heard.

Everyone who posted product feedback post on here, let's see our numbers boys. ;)

I heard that CE had better netcode also, but i played bloodgultch and when i used sniper i had to lead just like in original so i dont see how its any better. CE is cool but thats not the point of this thread.
btw, i hope u did the microsoft feedback thing!

It would be nice if something is actually done, but what i think will happen is that they just wont bother doing anything to halo 1 then just fix these things for the halo 2 to pc port. I just hope something happens.

Indeed Mard, they'll up date this game iin the future cos they do things like that like re-releasing products. Hey people, talk about Halo 2 on PC in my new forum lads, write anything you want about Halo 2 on PC there!

thx Mard for finally copying out all the improvements for Halo PC that we've all had in our heads the past months, it's really good that we're are finally doing something to help improve PC, i mean sure a petition would be nice, but we're all just too lazy to make one, so this a great option point click, copy paste, and it's all what we really want to happen, power in numbers people!

Great idea, MarD! Im doing it now...

EDIT: By the by, how do you know that it will go for HaloPC? It looks pretty impersonal. Theres no way to go for halopc specifically...

Heyyo,

Well m$ ain't a very personal company, and I doupt they'd budge a finger for a petition, same for talking aboot it in forums.. but if we spammed their product feedback I'm sure they'll listen. ;)

This should be sticky so more people read it and do it.


EDIT : We should put something in our sigs so other people also see it.

Hey Mard, this is shweet, im so gonna do this. Oh, and instead of seperating the wall more for danger canyon, why don't they add one of those boundries that kills you when you pass it.

Mard,

THANK YOU for the ending problem. still, i do not download the patches (see the gaming community post "The problem with CE"), so this will not affect me much. I can try and help you by spamming the place. It would be great to see MS actually respond to their customers.

If any offense was taken by the Windows croud, too bad.
