Frankie, can you tell me why I keep failing to load maps. It keeps me from having fun on
x-box live. I keep having this problem. Can you tell me why this happens?
I also have another question about the friends list on x-box live. Will you ever expand the list because it pains me to remove my friends from my list?

Excerpts taken from 7hr33 on what Multiplayer needs

Show Health on the HUD beneath the Shield gauge. This would alleviate so much of the perceived randomness of damage in general. Whether this is implemented universally or though a new profile option to choose different HUD styles is open to discussion.

Fall Damage should be reactivated, even as an option for those who would like it.

Allow players to turn off or modify which text messages are displayed on screen regarding who-killed-who and what ammo has been picked up, especially for split-screen play. (We are pleased to report that the public's cry has been heard on this point. Thanks, gents :).

Speaking of clutter, have an option to totally remove the radar from the screen when not in use. It looks neat, even reminiscent of the Marathon HUD but boy, does it get in the way.

Have the shotgun fire more pellets to reduce the randomness of the damage inflicted.

The Plasma Pistol needs to be reinstated to its former "glory", ie. to be able to kill someone with less than 19 shots to their unshielded body.

Reduce or refine the seemingly random grenade damage (or at least send me a memo explaining their intricacies).

For both grenades and melees, increase both the damage and range (if only a little), and make a slight time delay when dropping a paired weapon to do either, making it a legitimate compromise to pick up a second gun (please follow this link for a more in-depth description of the issue). This melee extension might also solve some of the problems encountered when attempting to melee a running opponent in the back and missing aparently due to his/her feet sticking out behind them...

This is their chance to correct one of the sequel's greatest confusions. Make the Needler do something. Anything.

Remove mid-air lunging with sword and/or reduce lunge distance slightly.

Make the blast radius of the rockets huge (limiting its use in close proximity), but make it take forever to cycle between shots and reload.

The "freezing" effect of the energy weapons could still add a crucial variation to the weapons.

I want to know when all the cheaters are going to be dealt with and when Bungie is going to finally do something about them rather than just ban people. I could care less about these new maps coming out in months from now when cheaters are currently running amok online now.

Legendarywarrior, Warlock does not resemble Sidewinder, at all. If Sidewinder is London, Warlock is downtown Tokyo. I believe you are referring to Containment. Not trying to dis you or anything, just pointing out your mistake in a way that people can make fun of you, in a good way, though.

For everyone complaining...

Halo is the greatest thing ever to happen to video games. Stop your bit ching and crying. Do you people not get that this a business? How can you run a business without making money? How could they release nine maps, with all the resources, time, money, and people spent on them for free? Most of you didn't understand that sentence. Re-read it, you will be O.K. So anyways, if you honestly, seriously expected a company to release part of it's product for free, all I can say is you will be helping the world if you practice abstinence. Tell me you understood that.

Disagree? You are wrong.

Wow, this is just what I wanted. I thought the maps that came with Halo2 were too small and didn't make use of the vehichles (except coag).

OK by the way....

Sivel, you are an example in just about every way of what not to say.

People, you must agree with me.

Sivel, instead of buying a new game we should cheat a company like Block Buster out of money and quality?

Rockets....larger radius? Stop.

No, he keeps going, and going, and going. You should change your gamertag to Energizer.

Stop posting, no one wants to hear what you have to say.

Ok don't even get me started on BLOCKBUSTER and thier lies to the consumer about no late fees! they actually charge you the full price of the game or video after a week and say SAY that its only a hold until the item is returned.

Bungie must have taken notes from the marketing team at Blockbuster when coming up with these outrageuos #'s to charge people for less than 10$ content!

No I wont stop thats what freedom of speech is for.

If Bungie and or anyone else decides to take that away from myself or anyone else then there no better than our corrupt government!

Let me say something nice if I may and before I recieve a bunch of Private Messages from those of you who think I am just talking out of character to be a jerk!

I love Bungie
I love Halo 2
I have loved bungie since the days of Oni and I love what they do for our entertainment
I think they do an excellent job within reason

I however do not like the fact that they changed Halo into what it has become.

I dont blame them personally either (Well not all of them)

Halo used to be a game where friends got together on the weekends, brought snacks and drinks maybe a little pot and had a bash with it.

Halo 2 killed that for what it once stood for! Now people just complain about how the Live scene has made that less of a treat.

Albiet you can still do the lan thing maps like Coagulation and WaterWorks too large for thier own good have turned into CTF's where neither team can score. Problem is not enough..

Halo had the PERFERCT balance, you spawned with a GOOD WEAPON (Pistol) which was universal for everyone who took the time to learn it and vehicles were always consistent and THERE to grab. Now you have to wait an hour before it respawns or try running across a map the size of the United States with an SMG because everyone else took all the good weapons hoping you come across something better in your jog over to the other base. OH BUT WAIT WHAT EVER HAPPEND TO DROPPING YOUR WEAPON TO SPRINT ACROSS THE FIELD? I guess that was 86'd with alot of other treats that were promised.

To be continued...
