whats with you guys that have to make sure you are 1 of the first posts???
I dont understand.... do you think you win a prize?? are you the ones on halo live that talk about your level like your going to win a covenat vacation for 4 to the planet of your chosing??
Or do you think its going to be like the last starfighter and you will be taken by some government agency because your skills are so great at cheating, -blam!-ing and whining??
Just thought I would ask

Hey, someone couldn't possibly be banned for Halo 1 mods as long as their xbox isn't modded right? Bungie doesn't really have anything against that do they? And it shouldn't matter anyway because the update is for Halo 2 and Halo 1 isn't live.

I love Juggernaut, and i know a bunch of other people who like it also, is there any consideration for a Juggernaut Playlist? it currently is the only game not in matchmaking.

Don't know why they have to brag about it in the first place. I guess they are trying to feel important.

The guy in the first post is a very self assured person
The next two guys have low self esteem and so need to demostrate their importance to others.


ha...

the reason they bann ppl for modding in halo 2 is cause it causes other ppl to not enjoy the game. halo 1 isnt a public game so they cant bann ppl for modding in halo 1

Uh...yea..Im really sick and tired of all the lame ass people who think they are god because they standby and mod.....And it still amazes me that people can still stand by when there have been updates put out to stop it.....and it suck even more because today I won about 4 matches in a row then got standbyed and lost a whole level.......this game is really starting to become the biggest pile of crap Ive ever seen....But dont get me wrong I know all of you at bungie are working on all these problems, it just amazes me that when people cheat they dont have a care in the world. The say and i quote..."I don't give a F*** I'm just going to make a new account".... Heres an idea i have that i would like you to take into consideration.......can there be a way to ban a persons from matchmaking by the system identifying their IP address? If you cant post this for the weekly Whats update.....I would really like to hear your thoughts on what i had to say......thanks


I think they should only do that to poeple who mod, get banned, and mod again. Most people would learn their lesson the first time.

For those who don't know why we fight for first post is beacuse everyone who discusses the the news sees their name first. And I love the rant about cheaters....Xbox 360 should give screamers, cheaters, and modders a taste of their own medicine.

By the way, can you guys make desktop wallpaper out of the mister cheif pictures?

Hey Helljumper, I dont want to speak for bungie, just in case I am wrong, but I dont think they mind halo 1 modding. Halo 2 is the real sheebang. I have been modded against so much it is sickening, but once I got 29-30 in double team. That was not anything to BRAG about, I was just saying that modders suck in real life. If anyone wants to play team slayer, just send pete121 a friend request.

Peace,
Pete

Thanks for another update. I really hope that the modders will get banned just from the next AU.

Helljumper, I don't think they will be able to ban you for Halo 1 mods because it is a separate game and uses a mod chip instead of soft modding. As for Bungie's stance on Halo 1 modding, I don't think they approve of it. A couple weeks ago I saw a thread on the HBO forum and a person asked Shiska how he felt about modding just for fun and he basically said that he doesn't like it at all.

Thanks for the great update Frankie. I can't wait for the Auto-update and our final revenge against the modders...they can all go to hell in the handbasket that bungie built.

I also love the Mister Chief movie poster...especially the subtle inclusion of the Apple logo. A little reference to your roots Sir Frankie?

Cheers,

Bungie/Halo 2 Fan

Frankie, can I get banned for using action replay and a program called "Sav3r"? I can't get cheats for multiplayer using action replay and the only thing that Sav3r allows me to do is change some of my Game Variants variables. Here is a list of the only thing it lets me change: it allows me to put the medals and other symbols in the name, it lets me change the score to win round, the round time limit, lives per round, respawn time, suicide penalty, betrayal time, primary and secondary weapons (you can only pick the guns from halo 2 and not some made up guns), moving hill time, flag reset time, bomb reset time, bomb arm time, territory contest time, and territory control time. This program only allows me to go below or above the regular variables and not make a cheat. Since it changes the variables in the gametype it doesn't leave the other team or anyone else out; everyone starts with the same weapons and so on. I like this program a lot because it allows me to make double team slayer gametypes to 30 kills. Me and my friends like to play these customs quite often; our favorite is Stick Fest (A GameType were the you have no weapons to start or on map and starting gerandes and grenades on map). We also like to play a game called Quickie which is a nuetral bomb game to 5 where the bomb arm time is instant with bomb indicator always on. You can't use either action replay or Sav3r in matchmaking or to cheat in multiplayer. I can't see how this would be bannable but the issue of action replay hasn't been addressed directly to wether or not you can be banned for using it. I was hoping that you could clear this up for me. Frankie, if you and the people at bungie would like to clarify that what I'm saying about the program is true I would happily send you it if you e-mail me at huntm2007@yahoo.com. I would really appreciate it if you clarify this issue for me.

I'm VERY glad that the mod-cheating is going to be taken care of. I've learned to dread every Containment game, as inevitably SOMEbody starts flying across the map or generating walls in the middle of the level. Although, I've played some pretty awesome games where I'm on a non-mod team that works together out of anger to actually hold off the modders.

(and I say "he" with all deliberation – since girls are almost invariably pleasant – and they have to put up with the most abuse)

While this is true in regards to XBL (in my experience), in context this statement was about in Junior High/High School, and I just have to say that this statement is sorely dated. Again, in my experience, I've met and seen more female bullies and foulmouths than males, by far. And from what I've heard from friends in other schools, this is not unique.

Very nice to hear that the cheating will be stopped in 1-2 weeks. Isnt hacked gametypes on a matchmaking like putting a virus into a computer...the people with mods should be in trouble with the law. While thats far-fetch...it will be great to play the game again without modders or cheaters...
