Subject: Why does everyone hate Halo 2 pc?

ffa is fun for those who hate how unfair swords are with concern to connection. coag ctf -the sword starts is fun because its a classic. and yes there aren't a ton of people on and that is one of the problems but i have made some fun game types and i usually get my party full in the first five minutes.

and the reason why the server list has mostly coag ctf is because it is popular i'm not saying its my favorite game type but people are having fun and thats what counts

It doesn't run well on my laptop. I'd imagine if it did I'd be amazing at it.

I'm also getting tired of constant Coag CTF with BR/Sword starts.

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

So in other words I should forget about H2V, because the majority of people want to play 24/7 a map and gametype I am sick of. I hear ya.

Bungie knows that variety is the spice of life. H2V players seem to disagree. All this work to get the game working just to find it was hardly worth the effort. Sweet.

I think the matchmaking refugees are going to be sorely disappointed in the tedium of H2V, if they can even get online at all.

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

LOL! Halo 2 Vista is just fine, your all a bunch of little brats. It works fine, plays fine...you can have all the fun you want to. Just STFU and play the damn game. If you don't like it, then don't play the damn game. You won't be missed.

No, Halo 2 Vista is just fine FOR YOU. Don't be insulting, and don't assume we give a crap if we aren't missed by the 50 or so people who can actually play this game online.

I knew you'd show your true colours eventually. One more reason to avoid Halo 2 Vista, Halo in general. I can't count the number of times I've asked other players for help to get the game running better and gotten a sarcastic reply or no reply at all.

I've been enjoying Resident Evil 5 on my computer with 60+ FPS, perfect controls, full graphics settings. There is nothing wrong with my system and Halo 2 should work!

Since you are the expert, do YOU know how to make the mouse work smoothly, and the server list actually show servers reliably? Do you know how to make the game recognize all available screen resolutions in full-screen mode instead of a window? Can you improve the H2EK? Can you remove the artificial barrier to running the game on XP, which has a massive installed base? Can you stop script kiddies from crashing? Can you enable/add co-op? Can you at least make Microsoft remember they released this version? You could take a shift calling MS support begging for a fix since I've been at it for over a year. Maybe if you in your wisdom solved these problems for us we wouldn't be so PISSED OFF

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

LOL! There is a read this thread for tech issues for h2v sticked here.
"All the fun you want to". Its only fun when you arent in some endless "MLG LOCKOUT SWAT" game or "COAG CTF" with sword starts and smg starts.
And n357 isn't the only user with problems. The server list never comes up half the time!
And one last thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBzcxisbbco
Who needs a aimbot when you can use this! Most h2v clans use them so they think they are better in their 1v1 mlg lockout games.

Big talk from a money waster.
IMO, monstrmoose are wasting money to host servers on a crappy game.

hey guys can't you stop insulting people, the fact is that we all enjoy some games and dislike others, people who are looking on this forum are trying to find an answer to whether or not they should buy h2v and by fighting and insulting rather than just a having a friendly discussion is not helping

  • 05.13.2010 12:27 PM PDT

Halo 2 is the bomb! I think it is the best Halo there is. I own Halo 2 limited edition, Halo 2 multiplayer map pack and Halo 2 vista. Oh and to those H2V haters out there H2V kicks butt!

Halo 2 forever!!!

i agree u statutory
i just wanted some opinions and answers not a trash talk sesion.
Those seeking to buy the game or are not sure if they should i highly reccomend it

Look at everybody that is getting so upset over a game that they claimed were "DONE WITH." for like a year now. Go figure.

Don't play Halo 2 Vista if you don't want to. You can bad-mouth the game and its players all you want, but going off on how the game is garbage isn't going to fix H2V for you.

DON'T PLAY IT! LOL! It's so easy for you guys! Don't play it!

I want to play it. What is going to fix it? If had any programming skill, I'd try to fix it myself. I already asked MS for source code. That got some luls.

No real story. I asked Shrikant, can I at least have the source code to fix it myself, and he said that wasn't possible. I knew it wasn't going to happen ever so I didn't push the subject. In a fair world, the source code would be available to everyone who wanted it. There would be no power trip where the big evil corporation decided who could use software and how.

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.

And bamf. There's Chaos showing just how easy it is to completely own a Halo 2oob. Make note of this example, gentlemen.

It typically takes one sentence and little effort. They make it so easy. =\

The only luls were from me, since asking for source code from MS is totally laughable. The only luls I got from anyone at MS is from the guy I asked about Reach codes for retiring H2X players, while he was telling me how great and crazy Reach multiplayer was while I can't even play it. MS support staff are not running on all cylinders.

I loved Halo 2 because it was the fun moments that I had with friends and my brother online. I can't put a price on those moments.

Also, I loved working with Grunts and Jackals in the single player mode--so much fun.

Agreed. Lots of memories from Halo 2 Xbox back in the day with my friends as well. Shame, Halo 2 Vista will never capture that same feel, especially with its problems and lack of players.

I would suspect most warm-blooded mammals can feel the evil emanating from the game. That, or only a fraction of people who bought it can get it to run.

I had several years of fun with Halo 2 on Xbox with my little brother. Loved it. It had flaws, but I didn't get the feeling of disingenuousness I get from the Windows version. It's painfully obvious that the people behind this version don't give a rat's ass about the players. And to use something as sacred as Halo to manipulate people into forking out outrageous sums of money for an OS upgrade they don't need is disgusting.

It's a lot like being with a sex trade worker. Once the money changes hands and the deed is done, you try to forget it ever happened. On both sides.

You're the little brat for believing that people should "just sit down, shut up, and play the damn game."

The United States is a democracy which uses a capitalistic economic system. I believe Microsoft expects people to pay to play their games without complaint. That is not democratic.

If a company charges a lot of money for a product which turns out to be defective then it should be recalled. It should also be fixed. As was the case with Toyota relatively recently. The case with Halo 2 Vista is not so different. The game should be fixed.
