Firstly, thanks for the updates!

I do have a few questions though; 1. Are any of the weapon balance fixes going to affect the plasma pistol/ battle rifle combo because, quite frankly, I won't be too disappointed if it does? A charged plasma pistol combined with pretty much anything is virtually impossible to defend against and it has become increasingly frustrating to play against an entire team wielding them!

2. Have you thought about changing the default weapon set on some of the maps? The reason I ask this is because Blood Gulch (a.k.a. Coagulation) used to be my favorite map but now it is one of the maps I dread playing. The fact that we respawn with an SMG and have to attempt to kill a person half a map away with a battle rifle or worse still, a sniper rifle, is oftentimes pointless! I don't understand why the default weapons on Midship can be changed yet on some of the bigger maps we have to run into battle with a gun that practically serves no purpose in a long distance battle. If this is one of the things the patch fixes then Bungie will definitely have earned it's supreme status in the annals of gaming history! Quite frankly, you guys aren't far off already!!! The fact that I have virtually no desire to play any other game should be testament to Halo 2's greatness!

Great! I am looking forward to testing these fixed problem and added features. As a matter of fact, I am getting off the computer now to go play Halo 2 for Xbox Live :D

Mate, the levels aren't going to be reset today and the update isn't going to make a difference to your stats so you'll still be at the same level after you've downloaded the update as before!

And Yes, I have heard much talk about our levels being re-set back to '1' is this true? I read your entire update page so I don't know if I possibly skipped over it by accident. But if you do I will be some what mad but I know it's for the best and know it will be for the best in the long run. Thanks,

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha you are funny bungie this was the biggest waste of time all they did was down the time of standby use thats stupid and made the already powerful granades more powerful! and they did fix anything at all they should stop wasting our time and give us our new maps!!!!!! jesus christ bungie!!!!! if you are gonna fix it fix it right !! i mean ask valve for christ sake they fixed standby for counter strike!! so yea i think they should just not waste our time and excite us about no standby when in fact all they did was over hype things and not give us results !!! so i am another very unhappy halo player!!! amongst the millions that are very disappointed!!!
