THE NEW UPDATE IS BULL FECES. it doesn't work . i have played 2 games and encountered cheaters again and again. how does it feel BUNGIE to be outsmarted by bitter players with no skills, who must result to paying some computer nerd to make halo 2 fans pissed. TEAM PREVIEW is un playable. WHY DID I PAY MONEY FOR MAP THAT ARE DESIGNED JUST FOR MODDERS. RELIC IS AN UNPLAYABLE MODDING PLAYPEN. I play the game to get better to experinence defeat as well as victory. and it is so frustrating to encounter these cheaters who have no skill and they talk like they are the best players around. one cheater whom i cant recall the gamer tag (because they are so FRELLING many) bragged that they had like 56 kills. he got a hold of the sniper and every shot was a kill. PATHETIC. WHY DOESN'T BUNGIE DO ANYTHING???
Bungie says that they ban them but they just get another account and presto chango a new account to terrorize us with. Can't you ban them by their credit card account? Or is it that you want them to cheat, so you can ban them, and they have to start a new account, more profit for you. Why don't you do a Napster like banhammer complete with legal action as in heavy fines. These cheaters are violating serious XBOX LIVE restrictions and aren't these binding rules. Shouldn't you make an example out of some of these cheaters. But until then i will not be playing XBOX LIVE anymore. I will cancel my subscription due to the lack of protection from bungie. it is really sad. i became enamored by XBOX LIVE due to HALO 2 and now i have become jaded and hateful. I wonder why so many of my friends on my playlist dont ever go online anymore, and i have figured out why, no one likes to lose to people who cheat to get their wins, even though back then the cheats were far from now i feel the same

true i am quite pissed myself. im tired of ppl running faster than the juggernaut and jumping to high that they're pretty much flying. all the -blam!- nerds have to do is leave their xbox's on and they can still mod. but eventually it will all sease to be and all will be as it once was.......hopefully.....

I m not home right now, but i'm not as happy as before after i heard some of your stories. Some of you downloaded the damn update and still got modded!!!!! I really hope that this is just a temporary issue with some smart asses that didn't turn off their Box! Bungie should make then reset their network!!!!! Damn i was really looking forward to going home and playing some games with legit people...but i guess these guys are still out there causing havok. I might as well quit playing this game.....i come home and want to relax and release some stress...and i have to deal with these fools, stressing myself even more.

Ok foolios, the update was not supposed to instantly prevent people from modding. It was only supposed to act as a monitoring tool, which Bungie will have to look at over the weeks to come, so don't expect the cheaters to be delt with for a couple of more weeks.

a monitoring tool....if thats the case thats like a slap on the wrist for these guys. What are they going to do, "monitor" while they play and ban then a week later you know how much damage these f*ks do in one day. bungie should just remove the new maps from MM until they figure out what the hell they are doing.

They can't remove them becuase they can only monitor the new maps sincey they are the only one that reside on the hardrive. But don't worry, a short amount of monitoring will result in a huge "lump sum" of banning.

Sorry bungie if this post offends you, but this is how I feel.

I hate modders, but I did use action replay for a game called Team filming. All it did was take off the grenades, health, and other things that took up the screen. judging by the name, you could imagine what I used it for. Besides playing Matchmaking and hanging out with online friends, I also work on my website, along with a friend's.

www.freewebs.com/zlut

I got tired of only using half a screen so i used it to record. I didn't believe that it was cheating, because noone lost a rank, one visual aspect of the game was changed, and it would be impossible for me to use this in matchmaking. I would have to choose the game to play it and makemade games don't allow that. N E Way, I can no longer do that... EVEN in a custom game with three people.

But o well. I guess bungie has to do away with every little thing that poses a possible threat. I'm guessing superbounces will be the next to go. Halo 2 is fun, but after about two years of playing, getting your rank up, getting it reset twice, and redoing it all... I think halo 2 is slowing down for me. You know... shooting bridges to make a base in the sky during a custom game or even a simple filming screen made the game worth playing. But I think I might give up on it, like about 13 of my other friends.

Halo 2, for a lot of people, is dying out, and I might be one of them...
