Thank you so much for pasting the WWU. I too cannot see it from multiple computers. It all sounds good and lovely.

Adding online Co-op for 4 players would be the fried cheese and bacon grease they promised before release.

I'm glad about the pp/br combo thing. What sucks, is now I'll have to get good at mlg rules becuase of the br starting wep thing. Oh well, if it's a small map, I'll still own with the sword... I hope.

I am so pissed off about the new playlists comming out. Team Rifles? WTF?! that is so stupid, and for team slayer human weapons because little newbs got pissed cause they were getting owned by the br/pp combo! The new maps could me much better the updates suck balls, grenades are -blam!- now, ctf with covenant vehicles is retarded everyone will just whore the ghost, it is just soooooooo stupid. No radar for head to head is also -blam!- retarded.... just because a couple of newbs don't like doesn't mean you should take it off. Also king of the hill and oddball for head to head is dumb as hell. Bungie this is one if the most stupid things you have done with your games, especially this one. You should reset everything the way it was. It was obviously more fun that way. You should add MLG Gametypes to the playlists and get rid of what ever the hell you guys are going to add. I bet you any skilled player will agree with me on what i just typed. Most of the people that complain shouldn't even be playing this game in the first place. Most of them are 12 years old and they don't know any better cause their little minds are still growing...... SO PLEASE BUNGIE ALL I AM ASKING IS THAT YOU JUST RETURN EVERYTHING THE WAY IT WAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS A BAD MOVE FOR YOU GUYS TO DO THIS.

GT:I Dozer I ( the I are i's not l's)



^^^Lmao, dude. I agree with what you just said. Especially the "brain still growing" thing. just becuase someone cant learn to defeat/ use the br/pp combo they're going to remove the pp.. that's lame.. If you people dont want the pp/br combo play a godamn custom game and turn them off. Which reminds me, I heard a briliant idea in one of the Forums... make it so you can check off each weapon you want available in a game. Oh yeah, one last thing.... NiGHT_LeGEnD I agree with your online Co-op mode. But as far as the new maps... you're on your own with that one.

Good job Frankie, Sketch, and Jeremiah! Bungie is looking better than ever, as they are further demonstrating that they have been listening to the community and other fans. I am also glad you have been taking the changes seriously and putting them through the intense scrutiny that they deserve. I look forward to the modifications.

I would like to thank everyonge at Bungie for making an amazing and fun game, and giving me, what is usaully a great expierience on Xbox Live. However I have had some very bad matchmaking expieriences, I am appauled with the number of people I have been matched with that are racist, and homophibic, and believe their sole purpose in life is to put down every person with a different -blam!- orientation, ethnic background, nationality, religion, and belief that are different from their own. After palaying in a matchmaking game with people who constantly killed and put down their fellow team mates, who, afeting hearing from a gentelmen that he was a marine and would be sent to Iraq, had the audacity/stupidity to tell him that he would be lynched and hung from a tree, I have decided that I cannot put up with these kinds of people anymore.

I plan to stick to custome games from now on. If you have had similar expierinces of feel the same way I do, feel free to send me a friend request. I love playing halo 2 and want to continue to have fun and exciting games, and this should be attainable.

No more Plasma Pistol / Battle Rifle ownage in Slayer games on Beaver Creek or Colossus - we now use Human weapon sets for Slayer variants on those two maps. This will be controversial and we understand there is some small skill required to use the combo, but frankly it has become tiresome on those maps. It takes far more skill to win without that combo. More skill = more fun, right?

Boy do I agree to that, What guys you can't hit me more then once with a Battle riffle?

Halo 2: A Documentary

After a couple months since the games release, Halo 2 has been going downhill with cheating, a dissapointing campaign and the long abcsence of dlc. The XBL games were mostly cheaters,glitch whores,stupid games like phantoms,PP/BR combo which was used all the time, and many more things that made me quit for a few weeks. I knew that I was not playing the game that I had waited about a year for. And ever since we got word of new maps, hopes began to grow for Bungie. Finally the auto-update came out, and Halo 2 began tostop running down that hill, and looked back up. Cheaters and glitches were gone and enhancements were made for more enjoyment. The following week New Multi-player maps were released as long awaited DLC. as news got out of playlist updates, more interest came to Halo 2 quitters. Next week, almost everything that many players were agravated with, will be gone. Bungie will give us the online experience that we have expected on November 9, 2004. Thank you, Bungie for answering our calls. Thank you, Frankie, you crazy monkey, for updated us. I'm sure I will be satisfied with the new changes. Im Michael Marcanik, gamertag:MYK1217, log-in:Sniper Todd. Good night.




How about that for a television documentary. BOOYAH

I cant wait for the stats reset and all that good stuff, ESPECIALLY THAT PP/BR THING!!! Thank you so much,I f-ing hate people that use it, I use it sometimes, but not usually, and I also think taking phantoms away was VERY smart, that's the worst gametype ever

Yes the plasma pistal battle rifle combo was getting really old, glad to see it go. No other combo pissed me off as much as that one.

If anyone can't see the update i copied and pasted it on page 3 of this thread.


To those of you that are complaining about the changes saying Bungie is stupid for making the changes, who is dumber? Them for trying to appeal to the vast majority to make money? or you for saying the game has been ruined but still playing it anyway.
