that sound like a good plan but if modding is ok more people are gonna keep modding there Xbox and in months every -blam!- game u enter there will be somebody that mod. so i sould quit cause some loser has a mod. there is NO! fun in that. by the way ranks are like a challege just like life. if u want a non rank game there always Tranning. Bungie should just Stop Hacking and continue ranks. just like the game of life u will lose and u will get mad.

We got owned at 9:11pm. And he's still on modding more people. But do you know what. Thats why people hate it. I mean look at O.J. Simpson. He killed his wife but do you know what, He was NOT GUILTY. And thats whats going on with cheaters. They are commiting the crime and they are getting the NOT GUILTY sentence.

ok serious messange now...

WILL THE PERMAMENT BANS BE AN I.P. BAN AND NOT JUST XBOX LIVE ACCOUNTS!??!?!
because c'mon.. whats the point if you can get a free 3 month account to cheat... cancel and just cheat again.

If microsoft is serious about cheaters they would stop taking their IP's as valid...but i suspect they wont want to loose a customer forrever, and we will keep being screwed.

a LIVE account ban is not enough,
if its obvious then ban the connection and the gammer.

(*note*)
By IP ban I mean the address given by your internet provider.... the address only your service providor can, in fact, alter.

Not the internet protocol anyone can change on thier router or xbox settings.

This is a RETICULE, and that is a RETICLE. I'm using the latter to aim. And what are you using?

I really appreciate Bungie's efforts to minimize modding and other forms of cheating as much as possible. However, I'm still wondering why it was possible to become so bad in the first place, and my conclusion is: it's Bungie's fault.

Ok, that probably sounded a lot mor harsh than how it was meant. The point of it is that it was - and still is - far too easy to cheat in one way or another.

Standbying is so mind-boggingly easy, it makes me wanna cry. And if it is that easy, why did Bungie miss that? Why wasn't there any standby-detecting in the first place? Why did innocent players have to cope with a massive impact on their gaming experience? Why did they have to wait almost half a year before Bungie finally came up with some solution in the form of the auto-update?

And the very same is true for the rampant hacking/modding that's going on currently. One doesn't have to know how to hack the new maps. One doesn't even have to own a modded xbox. All one has to do is to download the already modified maps from the internet and use some device like Action Replay to transfer the files to your xbox's harddrive.

True, the only thing I can blame Bungie for is their carelessness and their naivity with this issue, but the obvious amount of carelessness and naivity really pisses me off.

Halo 3 (31st), ODST (14th) and Reach (4th) Mythic Conqueror. (Mythic is Solo, Legendary, All skulls on + scoring on and no deaths/saves).

Hmm, will this 'New' update be on the Disc? Or is it too late to put it on there?
Soft Mods with the modded maps and things on XBL is NOT right in my opinion. But personally, i love seeing all the crazy stuff people can do with modifications on modded xbox LANs. Don't anyone EVER think that these cheaters on XBL represent the whole modding community. Infact, most of the true modders resent and hate the cheaters on XBL for getting them a bad name.

You sir, are a complete -blam!-! Modified maps are a problem not just with Halo 2 but with EVERY game that has downloadable content. And not just on xbox, but the PC gaming arena is even more rampant with modded content against people who don't expect it.

Bungie's fault? Wahta! THEY are not the ones who were screaming for downloadable content. THEY are not the ones that were screaming for Xbox Live with Halo 2. THEY are not the ones that distribute these modded maps. THEY are not the ones that made action reply so easy to transfer modded content. Nieve. PUhUH lets so you make a more stable and cheat-free game huh? see how long it takes you! retard.
