Why? Why do people cheat? Their mothers must have dropped them as children. Or perhaps it stems from alcohol abuse during pregnancy... Either way, it needs to end. Modding has become so prevailent that every other game (if not every game) there is at least one modder in the game... If you want, I can take down all their gamertags and give them to you so you can personally ban them for life. Its either that, or I enact vigilante justice by visiting each modder personally at his or her home and "modifying" them...

i think that people shouldnt get pissed of when others cheat and then post their gamertags on here. leave them feedback and then its done with. who really cares. if your in a game with them just quit. i personally hardly ever give a flying crap about levels. if i quit a slayer game i dont care. i modded my ps2 because its funny to fly around like superman in san andreas. im not defending people who ruin the games for others, but i also see nothing wrong with mods that arent used in online play. if my xbox was modded i might create a closed party and show some of my friends because it probably is fun to do this. as long as its not in matchmaking and your not pissing off all of the kids who think their hot $hit because there level is in the twenties or thirties. one of my accounts is a twenty six and that was from one day of gaming. i lost two games because there are people in the twenties who are not good enough to face the people who were in the twenties before the stats were reset. i sometimes start new accounts because im tired of the little retards complaining of level loss. one again im not defending modders but leave them alone and let bungie handle it they said they can tell.

Like another player had said before about the warthog going half the speed. That has happened to me about 50% of the time you get into a warthog. I have to get out and jump back in to get it to go fully speed. That doesn't work some times. It really sucks because when your getting chased by a ghost or and other veichle they can easily kill you because you can't get away from it. This has happened ever since the update. I've played a friends Halo 2 that doesn't have Xbox live and that problem hasn't happened once. I use the same controll that i use one my xbox so it's not the controler. I don't know if there was a problem with the warthog that the update was sopose to fix, but it really didn't work out for the best. Others haven't responded to this problem because like i said before it only happens about 50% of the time you try to take off in the warthog. I know this is ture because people that i play with in matchmaking and custom games have the same problem. This problem usally comes up the the worest time. I would just like to know why this is happening. Oh and when you look at the dash board to see the colors which indacate the speed of the hog (green, yellow, and red) The dash will be red and the hog will sound like its moven at top speed but really only be moven at the speed if the dash was green. If you could explain to me why this is happening or tell us if your going to fix it or how we can better protect our selfts against this flaw i'd be happy.

YAAAWN... I swear most of you are freaking noobletts. first of all super jumping (aka super bounce) is not cheating because it doesnt change the game what-so-ever it just allows peopl to get to better sniping places. And second of all who ever complains about the Br55 Rifle and the Plasma Pistol should get a life if u dont like Pros using good weapon combinations dont play because if you haven't relized YOU CAN USE IT TOO. Also for the people who are complaing about cheating you are also noobs I have no problems with with people who do use cheats because they still suck even with the mods. And for the last time mods make the game fun BECAUSE OF NEW CHALENGES TO OVERCOME. And me personally I like the Plasma Pistol and SMG together.




P.FREAKING. S. QUIT COMPLAINING A BET MOST OF YOU COMPLAINERS ARE LITTLE KIDS WHO ALWAYSGETS THERE WAY AND ANY TIME YOU DO WIN EVEN IF IT BE BY ONE POINT YOU CALL THE OTHER TEAM NOOBS AND TRASH TALK THEM WHEN THERE ARE SAYING GOOD GAME SO YOU AR GETTING WHAT YOU DESERVE.

Wow, why don't you ask frankie if super bouncing is cheating, cuz I did, and he told me it's cheating. But there's no way for them to pick up on it automatically so you have to send feedback for those people. Just to clarify, using a superbounce is manipulating the game code to do something it's not intended to do. Why don't you just face the fact you're a cheater, cuz that'll be the first step in realizing that you suck at life.

Hahaha. Well, you need to chech the cheating faq update.

Q

What is NOT considered a bannable offense by Bungie?

A

Quitting a game is not a bannable offense. Having a team-killer on your team sucks, but that's not a bannable offense either. Many people are also aware of the "super jumping" phenomenon that allows players on some maps to jump to extreme heights. We are monitoring this situation for long term impacts to game balance but we are not banning people who do this simply because it's too widespread and is something that's basically built into the map. Anyone can do this if they want to though it is difficult to pull off in many cases. We will continue to monitor the impacts this bug has on our game.

Not bannable = not cheat .......maybe "cheaping", but not cheating.
The subject of superbouncing is so old. If you need to know how to do superbounces, google it. Don't just call it cheating if you can't do it.

Who ever says the super jump is cheating is a -blam!- -blam!-. Everyone can do it now, especially on Zanzibar. And besides, they die just as easily so stop whining about it. now my friends mod and im wondering if ill get banned for playing with them. i think playing mods or haks in custom games is perfectly fine but in matchmaking then they deserve to die. Also there is a way to make the game load only new maps that are on the hard drive the you have no control over Bungie, just to let you know. My gamertag is Smoochy32. check my stats i aint a cheater

Wow the lack of ability to argue effectively and not just whine and make idle threats saddens me. I just started reading these forums and all of the low education typing at eachother is more annoying than usefull when it comes to "discussing" the topics in the weekly update. It is unamusing and makes the forum not worth reading unless you can skim and find the posts that ARE NOT IN ALL CAPS WIT BDA SPEELIGN AND LINGO, JUST AMIED @ YELILNG @ PPL YOU DNT NO.

Now to set it straight, super-jump is cheating since you cant do it just by jumping by itself and it wasnt meant to be done. People who hack do make the game not fun for many people but Bungie has assured us they are working on it. For all of those who did not catch it before, they said they have not put the plan of bans into effect yet because they are still in the testing phase and cannot give a specific date as to when their "ban hammer" will go into effect. So everyone has the freedom to be angry about the mods and be annoyed and want the bans to happen, but we all have to wait for Bungie to do their thing and find the most effective ways to deal with the problem. Patience and feedabck are the best way to deal with cheaters for now. Just remember to give feedback when you know someone has cheated and do it everytime someone does. The more they are reported the faster they can be eliminated and faster the game can become more fun for all legit players again.

yo today alone i had a problem with modded x boxs in 20 games i got 15 of them were using modded weapons!
im sick and tired of cheaters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
im realy thinking of stop playing halo 2 at all and putting it in a frame and leaving it in my shrine to bungie.
im sorry about whining but i cant stand it any more to all those who know what im saying does it piss u off to?
cheating defeats the purpous of even playing the game it take the chalnge of the game out. i play with lvl 23s and 24s when im a 21 then i get the problem of super jumpers that get onto imposible areas and snipe from a spot where u cant defend from im sick of super jumpers that us it to defete the perpous of playing fair. i never use super jumps even tho i know them i mean the entire purpous of the live is to improve ur skill and not to CHEAT UR WAY AND BE A WIMP BY MAKING OTHERS STOP PLAYING THE GAME BECAUS OF IDOITS WHO CHEAT AND OTHERS WORK HARD TO GET UP THE HARD AND FUNNER WAY.
finaly i will hope bungie takes care of these modders and ban those accounts
