Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

I made my weekly call to MS support. Talked to "Sam". We talked about Halo 2 Vista, specifically server list not populating. He launched the game on his machine and found the same problem. He's going to "forward the information to the developers". What developers? What a joke.

It's no joke. Steve Ballmer is hard at working correcting the issue!

Couldn't you talk more?
since the downfall of H2V, there must be something else...

like,
fixing the over 60 fps issue, Fix the game renderer
bringing back custom map images,
either they fix the H2EK, or get pwned, by Km00.
Fixing of netcode, add online co-op and survival mode.
add Infection, Race, VIP, etc.
Bring back all Server and client sided features.
Matchmaking.
Fix the damn browser, in connection and viewing.
Support all resolutions.
more detail in current match, gametype, pings, players.
Fix, Fix, Fix.

wait, wut!
Steve Ballmer actually cares? is this because of the demise of H2X?

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Reminds me of similar non support with h2x. When matchmaking went down, they said they contacted someone and that "your internet is messed up" W7F!?!?
Also, i once called about the crashing, and they gave me a dead email for halo 2 XBOX cheaters that bounced.
And the reason for the list, is the fact that gfwl has issues with h2v lol.

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

Microsoft Support. That is an oxymoron.

Sorry for big quote. Just woke up. I've only been hounding them about the problems I've experienced myself, mainly the FPS/control issues and the Live server browser. In the past when I brought up multiple issues, I was only allowed to address one at a time, so I thought the server browser issue was the best choice. Fix what's broken first, then add what should have been there in the first place later. I guess it's all pointless, though. The policy seems to be to forget the game ever existed.

That's true. Seems to be the same with almost all software companies. I'm getting the same lack of concern with 2K, Capcom and even Valve.

By the way, "Sam" insisted there was no activation limit for H2V. I tried to set him straight, but I don't think he believed me.

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Valve.

Maybe on consoles. Valve loves their PC players to death.

No, Gearbox did. They also made Opposing Force, the Cancled HL dreamcast port, and a port of the bonus content to PC (Blue Shift), and Halo PC.

And hp support is worse.

I can't believe anyone is working hard to fix H2V. If someone was I bet it would be fixed by now.

Yeah, but they developed the ORIGINAL PC VERSION! Gearbox ported it though.
