Speaking of making a difference - I can't be the only one who isn't willing to buy an Xbox just to play Halo 2 - why on Earth won't Microhard let me progress through the storyline of this excellent title on my PC?

It's been 5 months - it can't be that difficult for Bungie to port this game over to the PC, and their sales would only increase.

Its great to see so many people doin this, about halo 2 on pc razz_54 it took halo 1 a little more than a year to come out, thats becuase it takes some work to port it dude, so we can hopefully expect halo 2 on pc in around the same time.

Personally if something was done i would have much more respect for microsoft. After all, this whole thing isnt dealing with the entire corporation, just the computer game or something division. Then all we'll need is halo 2 on pc and all will be right in the world.

Yeah, this definetly should be a sticky.

I cant recall who posted it, but I agree about putting in the barrier in Danger Canyon.
Kudos Mard for putting this up. Its good to get back from Daytona to find the PC community fighting more than ever! I just copy+pasted the suggestions Mard listed. So you all should fill it out! It only takes a few seconds so there is no real excuse!

Heyyo,

Nice to see you're back dude. And I'm sure if I diddn't post it someone else would've beaten me to the idea. ;)

We payed for a great game, hopefully if this works it can be incredible. :)

Oh c'mon... dont bring us all down! Try to keep the attitude one that is posetive. Just coming in and saying 'this is worthless' will make us feel worthless and make us not want to try. We dont know that it wont work til we try right? Just keep thinking on the posetive side!

Long live The_MarD, copy and paste! If they just fix the net code it would be worth it!

Thanks MarD

Its true that we dont want a bad port for halo 2. But if they can fix some of these problems with halo 1 then these problems shouldnt even be in the picture for a port. At the least these problems will be dealt with in a port of halo 2. By the way has there been any official word on halo 2 coming to pc????

Just updating it with a few other suggestions...

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=%2Fi sapi%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.

* Add an inactivity kick option for dedicated server

* Better the bancode, so people cannot simply reset team kills by leaving then rejoining.

Let's try n' make a difference guys.

DEFINATELY STICKY THIS!!!!!!

"Although we are unable to reply individually to each suggestion we receive, we appreciate your thoughts and opinions."

I think they dont read the complaints they are sent as i noticed this and it looks like they dont give a #!*£ about what customers think!

Thanks anyway Mard i've send loads of complaints already as they may decide to do something!

From now on im using Linux i think! Stupid MS

Well they probably wont care at all about the problems we send them, but if enough people do this they might notice. U've gotta picture the people there getting probably thousands and thousands of things, so if maybe 100 or more people do this then it will be a greater percentage than other individual things.

Heyyo,

Yeah, 1 or 2 complaints ain't enough, we need to literally fill their inbox for them to notice n' give a damn, so keep the flamage going. :)

man even if they re-released an entireley new game that's the exact same as Halo PC, except all the bugs and laggg is fixed i would buy it. Also for Halo 2 the only thing they would have to do for Halo 2 PC would be to make a new multiplalyer, we ask for nothing more. although if they made us pay for online MS would really be a bunch of money-grubbing BLAMs.
