I played against a modder in a double team game of CTF Classic on Warlock. When the game started he jumped from his bases block and jumped overtop of the center piece (where the cloak is located) and landed in my base grabbed the flag and jumped back to his base. The game was over in about 35 seconds. In another double team game we played slayer on Warlock and they were running at about 100 mph and would just run all over the map with shotguns and that game to 30 lasted about 1 min and 30 sec. Something must be done about these modders it really is ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!

WORD UP! TO ALL U CHEATIN SCUMM YALL CAN GO LVL WHORE WHILE I PLAY TEAM TRAINING : )

DAM FRANKIE GOT THE FIRST POST!

anyways when they say there gona ban modders.. i laugh my cousin mods on live and hes been doin it ever since he made friends with some geek and that was a week after halo 2 came out so basically there just tryn to scare modders cause they cant do jack about it and its true!

ps. i dont cheat, mod or any of that crap actually ive stoped playn this game cause of all the junk that ppl do to get the almighty "lvl50" o0o0o omg omg ur lvl 50 i bow down to u... actually i dont give a dam.


Nope. It's true. I have three idiots on my friends list who modded for four months straight and said they wouldn't get caught. They just got perma-banned from matchmaking and whining about it. Ha. I laugh at them now. BTW: Modders suck.

All the maps sound awsome and so does the movie. Can't Wait. The people at my local game store had said that because the are putting a different graphics chip in that halo 2 wouldn't work on xbox 360 because it used the graphics chip so much. They said other games that didn't use the graphics chip as much would be reverse compatible. I was wondering if you knew if xbox was going to make an exeption for halo 1 and 2 because of its popularity or if we are going to have to wait for nov. 2006.


Well the people at your local store are retarded, especially if they think that microsoft will not make absolutely sure that both halo 1 and halo 2 will work with the emulators they will be using for their back-compatiable feature on the xbox 360

I often play with a couple of real life friends and even though we have different levels (21,16,9) We enjoy playing together more than any other game. The problem is the clan we've recently set up.

I hoped as newly formed clan that we would have a gentle learning curve to play with, culiminating in an eventual plateau that we would work together and learn to overcome. As it happens we haven't got above level 2 in clan matches because we consistently face opposition of 20 -30 level players, who have just started a new clan.

I know that this would be impossible to solve in this evolution of halo, but I really think that in Halo 3 you should incorperate a system where your best ranking determines what level of clan you qualify for.
I challenge anyone quite good at halo 2 to form a clan with a couple of relatively new players and see how you progress. Seriously.

The reason Halo is, in my opinion, the best game I've ever played is the obsession with balance I've seen that is fundamental

Player skin:
All players can move and jump to the same degree.

Weapons:
The smg owns the sniper in the right cicumstance.

Maps:
e.g.
Red has the best access to super weapons.
Blue has the best defensive position.

Ranking:
e.g.
Rumble pit
23 year old college student, dosen't play enough to get above level 9
14 high school student, plays a lot but just can't progress above level 9.


The clan system I've played in, defeats the point of halo's near perfect balance. I hope it can be righted in the future.

Hey Frankie I play a lot of halo and mainly team slayer. and most of the time i see people super jumping. Can you get banned for super jumping? And how are you going to stop it?

Ok, cheaters can be modders, but not all modders are cheaters. To all the cheaters I say, "you suck!" To all the serious game players that have good manners I say, "Halo on!"

I really hope you fix the cheating soon, so you don't have to reset stats. I just got a 29 in BTB and I DON'T want it getting reset.

We're only going to say this once, so listen carefully, and if you're using hacks, or know anyone who's using them, pay close attention. Every time you show up on Live with a hacked map, hacked save or other exploit, we not only know about it, it lights up our system like a pinball machine. We were almost tempted to print gamertags as examples. Right now, we are taking very, very serious measures to end it. They will be severe measures, and they will be global. That's all we're going to say about it. So now's the time to stop doing it. We are not kidding, and we are not bluffing. The reason the new measures have not been implemented so far is the same reason as ever - testing. This was your last and only warning.


-_-....... wow, did shishka write that?? then why havent you stopped them yet?? i lost 2 levels because of this hack, and you say that you guys can tell who's doing it.
why havent you stoped them yet. you should stop them from the first time you do it. but you guys ''talk but dont do'' I quit ur crappy game but I still want to know how the hell do you post a lie like that, here lets see..... i have a friend that I heared he uses the mod hack, ummmmm why is he playing matchmaking on my friend list right now??? hmmmmm his name is red n gold

bungie, why standby only screw's up halo 2??

as you can see, bungie told us that standby is gonna end by banning people, they said that they connot stop people from pushing the suspend button, but they can ban them, well cool i hope you know that you guys didnt ban S H I T!!!!!

if you guys cant stop standby how the hell do you have the guts to come in here tellin us that hackers appear like blimps.... bull-blam!- go tell shishka to f u c k him self




For some who "quit ur crappy game " you sure do play a lot. Both custom and matchmade games. For all you people reading this, just ignore the hipocratic idiot if you check his mm games he gets owned just like everyone else---> no matter how good you are there is always someone better> Oh and before you get all pissy at me and start whining like a little girl how good you are and how you could own me.

1) i dont care, i have better things to do with my life
2) Nobody cares, we all have better things to do with our lives
3) IT'S JUST A GAME. GET OVER IT, STOP WHINING AND JUST PLAY FOR FUN!

Having the same problem as well. This is a definite Halo 2 bug. I tried multiple controllers with no luck. If you slow down to a near stop and then speed up, the problem goes away 50% of the time. The other 50% of the time: slow hogs are easy targets. I have no problems in Halo 1...the warthog goes at full speed there.
