Ok not only does halo 2 need some new maps but they need to give the battle rifle an ammo expansion, also build the ATV and bring back the pistol (from Halo1) And why no remakes of the BEST old maps from Halo 1 come on Sidewinder was without a shadow of a doubt the best CTF level of all freaking time. and WTF no new hang em high that level was so perfect for oddball it is so dumb that there will be no remake of it. Also the battle rifle had not even close to enough ammo supply because it does next to no damage. Also on November 9th i solidly believed that there would be an ATV but alas there wasent.. WHY THE F**K not come on are u telling me that Earth had no solution to the ghost? Its not too late to save a doomed game do these things and if u only do one PLEASE bring back the pistol that actually took skill to use. All u have to do is take Halo 1 and put everything that was spectacular about it in Halo 2 dont blow it bungie.


Give me a break! Who are you? You don't have any say in what should and shouldn't be in Halo. People in here sound like complete idiots when they sit there and wine for all the cool stuff they want. If you want Halo 2 to be exactly like the first game then play it over the internet on PC. Halo 2 is a completely different game so get over it. As for your statement about the battle rifle needing more ammo because it doesn't do enough damage you are completely mistaken, it only takes four shots to the head to kill someone with it. Apparently you don't know enough about the game to be making suggestions in the first place. You should try some team training or something. Maybe I could help you learn the basics, just send a message to ARon087 and I'll be sure to get back to you.

As for everyone else: STOP COMPLAINING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just wanna know whats so hard about letting people know the truth. Last week your update was all about telling the people whats really going on. Will it take another store or business spreading rumors to get real info? Frankie you said your self people were going crazy on this topic. why piss them off more with a "funny post"? Its not like everyone here is asking dumb questions. Some are asking about new/ old game types being on the DC. Some ask whats taking the cheat fix some long. Others ask about the prices for the maps (price per each download series). Is answering questions painful or something? Its not like you people dont have time to tell us. You wasted ours with that pointless post the other day.

Next thing.... Whats the point of telling people the names of the maps if we dont know what they look like? You gave screen shots for the first 4 maps. What would be so hard about showing other the five? And thats just the topic of the maps. You still havent told us what other "goodies"(as some like to call em) this DC is gonna have. You still havent told us when the glitch fixes are coming. and you still havent told us how your gonna stop the stand by problem. Why? If your gonna fix it then why cant you tell us how "just yet"? Sorrys kid but it sounds like you people at Bungie really dont have a fix do ya? Well maybe thats why we have to wait till the end of this month for the content because the brains of Bungie still gotta figure things out. Oh well I guess that gives you more time to dodge questions and play with your butt buddy Mister Cheif Huh Frankie?

I alrady now alot of people are gonna be pissed but im just putting out their what alot of other people wanted to say but didnt know how to word it. At least you people stick up for how you feel. What did Bungie do? They started the thread over... Speak out. Dont just sit back like nothings going on or you dont care. I bet it would make alot of people happy to see you say what was on your minds for a change.

To the guy that told me no one gave a damn about the old school 1 flag CTF from Halo CE:
I took my own poll from randoms on live, and people i never met before online...

Would like to see it come back: 127
Wouldnt like to see it come back: 18
Had no clue what i was talking about: 6

I rest my case.....

People worry too much about this. It's like you circle your life around Halo. I know it's fun but some people get so POD over this. Don't get POD just go do something else so you don't bore your self. I myself play HALO 2 alot but i don't count on it for my happiness. I have fun with it and all but there's more to life than HALO 2. So everybody take a break for a few days and when you get back on you won't wine and you'll do alot better because you won't be mad or something. All waiting for the maps will do is get you POD. Don't wait for them, It will go alot faster and you won't bed mad and you'll have real good fun when you get back.

Frankie most the time on xbox live i glitch like getting to the top of headlong, lockout powerjumping
in coagulation and getting to the top & bottom of Ivory tower so maybe leave some glitches And now for zeus20289
the reason there not showing the 5 other maps is because its a marketing tech.
plus for the people with patience a surprise, thas why they had the unlockable map

Alright guys, i got some questions, firstly, are their going to be any new kinds of matchmaking? That would be totally cool. Secondly, Will their ever be any new weapons, such as the Fuel Rod Gun, or Flamethrower? And lastly, when you guys first started making the originaly Halo 2 There was an ATV, will their be any new vehicles? *hint hint ATV hint hint**, thanks for youre time.

Zeus, man you got one hell of a point, i totally agree with what you said, however you probably shouldnt look so down on Bungie, or Frankie for that matter, Bungie is the one who brought us the best game ever, and Frankie can probably only tell us what they say he can, so seriosuly i agree with you on some matters, but they still both are doing a hell of a job.

I find it strange that after all this time people are still crying because Bungie aren't giving us the E3 level. When will people realise that this level was a showcase, nothing more. It was never intended to be integrated into the game. It was only there to demonstate what kind of things we could expect.

Please stop asking for extra campaign levels because they are NOT coming. Bungie have only ever said they would give us new multiplayer maps. No campaign levels, no new weapons, no new vehicles.

Sure the ATV may have been fun but we are not going to get it. Please do us all a favour and quit crying about it.

The new multiplayer maps will be with us soon. I can't wait to get back into the streets of New Mombasa and wage a few turf wars. I only hope that when they become available it will stop all the whining that is going on...

...probably too much to ask though.

Also (and I could be wrong) I think the reason we do not have a weekly update for last week is that someone got in trouble for the misguided April-fool Chiron gag.
Clearly the subject of downloadable content is a hot issue and a lot of people (good or bad) have some kind of beef about it.To throw us a gag like that quite likely enraged a number of people.
I'm sure it was done with the best intentions but even I have to say that it was a pretty dumb thing for them to post.

April-fool's fun is all good but topics as heatly debated as this one should be left well alone.

I just love the halo books, and that battle knife sounds great, so why no make one
not as a new weapon, but as a close combat attack:

press up on the d-pad (we are only useing the white for team talk), and a long blade come out of MC's plate he has in the hand and he strikes with it, its more effective than melee attacks
it your a covie, he takes up a brute blade (a smaller blade similar to the blade on the brute shot), pressing the up button again takes down the knife/blade

sounds good to me

no way thebooby, the battle knife is a really bad idea, it's nearly impossible to get close to a covenant elite becoz it will just beat you down, a jackal will snipe you, a hunter will knock you, a brute will charge at you, even a grunt will just run away, it won't work

WOW, I can believe you just admitted to be a glitch -blam!-. Why don't you go buy a Gamecube and play some smash bros cuz ur sorry ass doesn't deserve to play online. You're a POS with no skill, I can't believe you're proud of cheating.
