I'm reading lots of comments where people want Big Team Training. Yes, this will help you get better at it. But if people quit out of a ranked Big Team Battle game, imagine what it would be like in training. There is no way a game would ever finish.

Hey, how about you make some games that are actually fun. Plasma wars sounds stupid and gulch wars is crap. Make some games like old halo 1 style CTF at COAGULATION with no tanks or ghosts just warthogs.

bungie, even if halo 3 isnt your next game, it will probably be after the game your working on now, so please will you put on the medals for the single player mode for each difficulty on like in the first halo..........just a thought

I think that you need some playlists designed especially for clans, because it's completely different when you already know your teammates going into a match and have a strategy. Some team-work-based gametypes would be fun.

I just hope that their "next project" is Halo 1.5. It could be a problem that Bill Gates has decreed that Halo 3 will be hitting stores the date PS3 is. I'm pretty sure that Bill Gates has quite a bit more power than the inventor of mister cheif himself so it could be a while until 1.5 is available.

Hey guys

was good to hear all about the new changes coming out soon - thank you!
Bye the way: Concratulation for the " hammer" update which removes quickly the "cheating community" at H2!!!! Makes gaming again more fun.

I am looking forward for the multi team option!

Greetings to Bungie and all H2 players, spindle

I've been a real big HALO fan eversince the very beginning but there are a few things that still bother me. like... what happened to the assault rifle?( wich used to be my favourite weapon.) we realy need a machinegun that can take down someone with a battlerifle cause not all of us are good with it and where is the fuel rod on xbox live? its a lot cooler than the rockets and it has no lockon wich make things more fun for those driving around in a vehicle
by the way the lockon on the rockets is way to easy to achieve, even the biggest noob can get a kiltacular of a spectre with those things.

OH, and one last thing... cant you guys do anything to make playing with spartans or elites different? like using the directionalpad to make your spartan peek around the corner when sniping, or make the elite do that typical sidestep when beeing sniped? even get the spartan to throw himself to the ground like the marines do when you try to splatter them or the elites can jump n roll out of harms way. Cause elites are bigger, wich makes them easier to spot and to hit, giving spartans an unfair advantage... That should make things more fun don't ya think?

Finally, a multi team game. Heres an idea 'Multi-Team Rockets'. CHAOS. Oh and Frankie, why wont you bring out an update where you can use fuel rod cannons as the covenant equivilent to rockets? Brute shots are too, eer, lets say useless, and bring out a map which invloves the arena where you kill Tartarus (R.I.P)

EgotisticStraw I agree with a lot of your points and i think some sort of effort should be put into pleasing an XBL client, but the fact of the matter is that all your complaints are something that can be avoided. if you think that "even the biggest noob can get a killtac with the lock-on ability" then please do the smart thing and stay away from most or any vehicals. as for the elite/spartan complaint goes well I will admit that when i have a sniper(im a spartan model) and im tring to kill the other teams sniper. I do find joy in the site of an elite holding a sniper riflle. simply put elites have really big HEADS!!!! If you have an elite model please take note to my warnings, if you pick an elite model you are way easier to snipe. But ofcourse this is just my opinion. however I would like to see a Fuel Rod Cannon(FRC for short) I would enjoy that prospect a lot. imagion an all out 16 player FRC rumble, the carnage would be much more then if it was just rockets. and if not making it a shoulder held weapon then put it on the banshee. the FRC on the banshee was the very first FRC i ever used back on the 1st halo.

(Also posted in Zanzibar) Just thought this is where to do it for the Update

Network Problems

The Problem:
When me and my buddy try to join eachother's party we encounter networking problems, but we can join if a third party is the host of the party, what's worse is that if that host leaves and either of us becomes the new host, one of us is getting lagged out, (this also includes games). This has been going on for two weeks, and it's REALLY GETTING ANNOYING; the funny thing is, we only live 15 miles apart (using two different ISP's Adelphia cable, and time warner cable).

Possible Causes (opinion only):
At first I thought it was maybe bungie protecting the Halo 2 online community from the dominating double team that formed when we got together, or maybe it was phantom bunnies chewing at our virtual network wires, or maybe still it was a sabotaging of Halo 2 by the disgrunted guys at Super Smash Spartan.
In the end, I have succumbed to much deliberation and decided that I HAVE NO IDEA what's going on.

Tried and Tested not so Potent Remidies:
We have both rebooted our modems, routers, and xboxes, tried different accounts, and i have tried a different xbox on a different connection (albeit still on Adelphia) none of which have alleviated the symptoms.

Any Sugguestions to what we should do would be much appreciated. Are we the only people suffering from this?

P.S. Gamertags are: StickyTrojan & PaCkMaN69

P.P.S. Bungie if you're reading this, Help us out!
