Subject: Is cheating still a major problem in Halo 2?

I stopped playing Halo 2 long ago because of the disgusting amount of cheating going on.

Flying Warthogs, Scorpions that shot out 1,000 sniper headshots a second and such.

Has the cheaters moved on?

I'd love to have another go on Midship or Coag for old times aske, but I refuse to jump back into the cheating mess that I left.

Well, Bungie doesn't pay that much attion on Halo 2 anymore, their is people who are like Shishka to watch for Cheater, but its a boring job.

I just went into a couple slayer games a few days ago at lvl 28 and only ran into standbyers once. It sure did bring back some good memories. http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo2.aspx?gameid=799235 520&player=Fusilli%20Jerry%201

I'm pretty sure they won't get booted if there on an original xbox.

it differs from each playlist

Slayer - a pretty good amount of standbyers and host booters
DT - less cheaters than Slayer but still a good amount
Snipers - almost no cheaters, except an occasional cheater every month or so (there's 1 searching at levels 35+ in the past couple weeks)

the update was before Halo 3 came out.
Bungie made an update to the game if people are using mods in Matchmaking they get lagged out after 10 seconds.
