Subject: Sorry Bungie, tried everything to play :(

I heard that today was the last day for Halo 2's servers, and you guys were willing to play one last time with us. Naturally I wanted to join, but everything worked against me. First off my Halo 2 dvd failed me.. and all the stored were closed.. made dozens of phonecalls and finally found a second hand store that sold the game. I explained the clerk my situation, and she smelled that I was desperate for the game.. and asked 30 euro's for it... plus the disk was scratchy.. I had to buy it.. Then I forgot that I didn't have Live anymore so I bought a 1 year subscribtion online.I was really happy when I put the DVD in my 360 and it worked! Just when I found out I didn't have the maps... but on the whole disc.. the part that had to be damaged was the dlc downloader :( I almost burst in tears lol. And I was so looking forward to playing some halo 2 online.. and for all the goodies that came with it.. the visual flair for reach :( man this sucks...

Sorry to hear that, bro. I have 2 extra copies. Wish you had it instead of me.

Yeah, thats pretty unlucky.

Why do I have to be so unlucky.. I tried everything to clean the disk..

I'm not trying to sound mean or anything, but try keeping your games in better condition. I have a library shelf for all of my disc games. While it may take up some room, I'd suggest you do the same. Just in case Halo 3 is taken down for when Halo: Hadron Collider is coming out.

Play big team... I'm pretty sure you don't need the maps

My disc is very scratched. But it works. But due to "time zones", I cannot play Halo 2 online ever again. This makes me sad as I noticed today that Halo 2 is überawesome :( R.I.P

Its the hardship and tales of self sacrifice in life that makes us stronger people or, of course, an Overshield and freshly spawned Spartan Laser.

Every mappack but the damn bonus pack downloads fine, but the bonus one fails out at the end. Why the hell did Bungie not put up one playlist that didnt require all the maps? Im pissed now. Bungie you guys can be real douche bags sometimes.

Thanks guys.. I appreaciate the understanding. But to make things worse, my xbox original wont connect to the internet.. this is just amazing..

PLAY BIG TEAM!!!! I am almost positive bigteam doesn't require the maps. I was playing it yesterday without the map pack... I thought there was another playlist that didn't need it either...maybe team training?

  • 04.14.2010 2:46 PM PDT

Big Team also requires dlc :(

Did you try every single playlist? I know there was one that didn't require... I don't know, maybe they changed it since yesterday.

Oh well, I'm sure the special reach things wont be that cool. And you will still have halo 2 campaign and local custom games to enjoy...am I right?

My connection failed during my last match, feeling like a sad panda now :(.
