Here is the survival guide for those still online and kicking in HALO 2.

I have four tips to provide but the rest hangs on the HALO community.

1: "Keep the line clear!"

Make sure that you're running on maximum capacity. You don't want HALO 2 to end because of a Stupid lagg-gg-gg or glitch*.

2: "Stay frosty"

Make sure to keep the XBOX cooled at all times. I packed like thirty ice-cubes into a plastic bag and put it under the 360 (the 'hot' end) to keep it cool.

3: "Think before you act"

Before doing anything that might upset current conditions, make sure that you know what you are doing.

4: "Clear your mind"

Stay fed, hydrated and if you're scared to go to the bathroom shove a catheter up your... just keep a bucket or something near you alright XD

The rest is up to the Forum members. Help keep our fighting men, women and Sangheili in an upright and fighting position!

R.I.P. Halo 2
11/9/04 - 4/15/10

- B( )B

Damn. I wish this event would have taken place this Friday rather than last night so that I could still be playing it. I mean, what am I going to tell my parents and boss? "I'm staying home to play video games." Just doesn't work that way.

At least I can say I was one of the last 150.

YES, say that!

Your boss is probably a fan XD

I prefer an intercooler... But I guess that works just as well! Congrats to everyone still online again. You are really are some of the most dedicated and luckiest players to grace Halo 2. :D

It's like visiting a dying friend. Some may choose not to so that they instead may remember them as they lived which is fair to them but not to the person in question. HALO 2 isn't alive but it is very much so in the hearts of these players. Support them for what they are doing as you should!

New tip!

This would be number 5: "Don't trip over the wire"

When refreashing your drinks; move deliberately!

Number six: Play HALO 2 soundtrack in the background so that you may stay motivated. Remember what you're fighting for!

And so it was because I'm not playing HALO 2 anymore XD

Jokes aside; I have never had a problem with it even through longer campaigns (that's war campaigns not actual in-game). This is my method, I would gladly hear yours'...

Tip: Chill maan'

When taking a brake, STAY LOGGED IN! Keep your character in the lobby or in a custome game until you're ready to get back into the fight.
