Subject: Desolation and Tombstone in Halo 2 Vista?

"Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain and most fools do."
-Benjamin Franklin

I have already looked for an answer but haven't found one yet so I was wondering if anyone on the pc forum knows why the halo 2 maps desolation and tombstone didn't make it onto halo 2 pc. Since Halo 2 pc is an almost direct port from xbox to pc I don't see why they were cut from the pc version. Will they be added in a future patch or what?

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Halo 2 Vista has been abandoned by MS and their "Hired Gun" dev team that did the sloppy port.

Desolation and Tombstone came out after H2V, so they would have to be made by modders, which is unlikely to happen.

H2V has it's own exclusive maps, District(what Turf should have been) and the island one.(I forget the name at the moment)

You, like many many others, are a casual a gamer. I know this because people who understand competitive gaming know that having a "god weapon" is vital to competitive play. Reach's sandbox makes you choose a weapon and stick to it's niche. But when you have a dominant all-purpose weapon, you are free to move around the map. When you can navigate the entire map, you are suddenly given many more options strategically, and being able to find the best option is indeed a skill.

The island one is Uplift and Tombstone has a "sort of" alternative, the Hang em High Beta.

Halo 2 Vista needs some DLC.
