Does anyone know if the X Box version has things such as an AFK kick, favourite servers list or a decent ban method? If so...why the hell was it not incorporated into the PC version?
I feel a bit sick knowing this originally was meant to be a front end PC game and now it's turned into a second class game for the PC.

Heyyo,

Yeah, it's the bane of us Halo gamers.. infact, any gamer that likes some of bungie's titles. The day m$ bought out Bungie, was the beggining of the theory that consoles will become more popular than PC gaming... now it seems almost inevitable.. god I hope them consoles will support a keyboard n' mouse fully, or I'll just drop dead. lol.

Now, Halo was meant for mac at first (bungie of course, being mainly a mac gaming company) but then ported to PC. This way would've turned out LEAPS better than the current situation... we're royally screwed people. m$'s new policy must be "hey, why fight the competition when buying them out will mean more profits since that's what we're all about now, being better for bigger profits." m$'s such a monopoly... rediculous. I wouldn't be surprised if they started getting into creating computer hardware, and start buying out smaller companies like sapphire and the likes......

Anywho, I'm off to bed, just 6 more days ti'll GTA San Andreas comes out, I can't wait. :)

Oh, my b-day's in 5 more days, lol, so that's also cool. :P

Does anybody think the PC version may have been intentionally jacked up so that we'd be more encouraged to buy $boxes?


lol you never can tell what MS's shadowy master plan is, maybe: TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD!, nah.

i really dont understand i mean hasnt bungie ever played halo pc. io mean if you play it you know it laggs. they say that its a bad luck cause people dont have good connections. well i say screw you bungie thx for a good for nothing pacth i hate you.


ha, ya i really think I'm going to email Bungie soon and actually ask them if they've ever actually played a game of Halo PC on an internet connection other than their fancy T3 line. You know I'm really starting to think the idiots at Gearbox actually only tested this game on super-fast internet connections, yet another reason why i'd rather buy an xbox for Halo 2 then wait for another crappy port. I mean if Bungie actually saw the REAL Halo PC multiplayer I'd think they'd have a heart attack and die, the Webmaster himself would go on a mindless beer-induced rampage to destroy Gearbox with his his jockstrap-chainsaw and other weapons.

Pacific? Specific you mean. To the guy who asked if the XBox version had AFK kick and stuff, the XBox version didn't have online multiplayer. There was no need to have those things.

Heyyo,

Haha, MA5B, did you not read what sawnose wrote before? all the patches do now is security fixes, NO IMPROVEMENTS gamewise... which's really ghey. all that's left of HaloPC/CE is microsoft's secuirty policy.......

that sucks. I would imagine that there's more of a security threat through email than halo. I mean, come on. That's what Norton and Mcaffe are for.

The non-CE links you posted are dead. Any way I could find all the updates in downloadable form, so's I can archive them for later reinstalls, etc?

As an aside, what is the differece between CE & the multiplayer engine that's incorporated into the standard product?

As for mods, while I don't make them, I *do* find them fun to play on occasion, so just ignore all those who dis you for them (same for the patches, I appreciate them)... Just wish the maps werent made using 3DStudio Max, cuz it's danged expensive.

It says "unable to join game" and its never done this before untill we d/l the 1.07 update. It does not do this when we join other peoples servers , only for us. I'd also like to add that when I played in other peoples servers I got excessive amounts of lag....playing with like 6 people. Can someone please explain why it wont let us play the game ?
