I have played Halo online via Gamespy and have recently been playing the trial version on Halo for the PC. The questions I have mostly pertain to how games are started and carried out in the multiplayer portion.

When a game is starting does everyone enter a 'lobby' and wait for even teams before the game is ever started? I personally HATE the UT format where everyone can join at will as the game continues.

During a multiplpayer game with teams can players switch teams at will? This is just stupid IMO.

Other than that it looks like everything is similar to the xbox version.

-S

The game is similar to the conventional multiplayer format. No lobby, and you can try to switch teams at any time (though the servers have autobalancing, so you can't simply leave the losing team).

Truely a bummer, Gamespy should know better, after all they use lobbys on their Arcade.

If anyone from Bungie is reading this, use lobbys and DON'T let anyone change teams in the middle of match!! Fix this in Halo 1 for PC if possible but for god sakes, make Halo 2 right.

This alone is keeping me from buying this game.

If you really want someone at Bungie to read your comments Jugbugs ... you should change the title of this thread into something like:

"Bungie please add Lobby's in Halo 2 multiplayer"

or something like that...
