Subject: Halo 2 Vista is great

Posted by: Nessy

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

Not sure what to tell you. H2v is the only PC game that I have ever played with mouse lag problems. In fact, I hadn't even heard of that term, mouse lag, until H2v came out.

Like I said before, seems lovely to me. I'd rather play with a keyboard/mouse than a controller. In fact, people on h2v have accused me of using a controller before. This one guy has accused me of hacks and booted me twice as well. (I don't have any hacks, like I said earlier in another thread, I don't even want to use them to get the Scarab Gun xD)

Some mice are more sensitive than others, can't play any shooter with my BlueTooth mouse because it's way too sensitive, have to use a wired usb mouse instead. And I mix it up what I use, mouse/keyboard for multiplayer and controller for campaign (reminds of my old xbox when I do that lol).

Yeah, when I first got my mouse it was way too sensitive, so I turned the sensitivity down. It was still working a bit faster than my old one, too xD I'm guessing that if your mouse isn't working fast enough then try to increase the sensitivity of the mouse its self THEN increase it on the game.

  • 10.27.2010 6:57 PM PDT

For H2V, I found the mouse sensitivity made me feel like I was playing in molasses ... until I cranked the sensitivity up, then it was great - no more lag.

H2Vista holds up better graphically than the XBox version - and the campaign, at least, is still an enjoyable romp.

I enjoyed Halo 2 Vista a great deal. I know a lot of people hated it, but if you were willing to adjust a few settings to get it to play well with mouse and keyboard it was very good and most of what made it hold up on the XBox - level design, art design, and a better than average story - is still present.

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.

But the multiplayer still sucks more than Paris Hilton on a party night.

The multiplayer is fine, the userbase it what sucks, it's borderline non-existant. Well, that and no Matchmaking, which was what made H2X awesome.

meaning, players using the xbox 360 controller gains an advantage than the mouse+keyboard users.

I wouldn't say that it would make it like an aimbot. Nothing like it. Also, I've beaten people with a controller. I like using the mouse/keyboard than a controller. You probably just need a better gaming mouse. What I have is a small Logitech mouse.

He means exactly what he means.

And it is fact that Halo 2's multiplayer blows, and the only people that would actually praise such noobified gameplay are those that suck at FPS games.

I'm willing to bet every single poster who praises the game uses a controller.

The game is a disaster with the mouse. The mouse lag is inexcusable.


after play vista for about 2 weeks with the mouse my accuracy was about 50% and that wanst good for the main weapon being a BR the sad thing is that 80% of my kills where from beat downs on purpose. but a couple days before it got my 360 (this summer) i borrowed my friends 360 controller and got a KDR of about 1.5 for that day. its safe to say use a controller.

ARE U RETARDED, Halo 2 was THE most played online game on the original xbox. basically saying that a main reason for the creation of the 360 was to get more live subscribers and to buy the Xbox 360. if it weren't for halo 2 there would be no such thing as a Xbox 360

oh and NUM N U T S there is an "aimbot" for halo 3, and reach. I'm sorry to say but i agree with south park in believing that 1/4 of America is retarded.

Edit: By aimbot i meant aim assist.

Wow really? Maybe you missed the OP. This entire -blam!- forum is just people -blam!-ing about the game. Sure, it has it's problems, those have been stated thousands of times and just about every thread in this forum is just people complaining about lack of XBL on the original version and then how the PC version sucks ass. The PC version has just about everything that the original version does with the tweaks everyone keeps requesting. "Hey I got a good idea! Let's get Halo 2 back with online mutiplayer and Hi-res graphics! Wouldn't that be great!" H2V, despite all of it's flaws and short comings, is just that.



This guy stated the facts supporting my case.

You should get a decent grasp on grammar before calling someone retarded, hypocrite. You might wanna try the edit button some time as well, as that post-tacular makes you look like a tool.

You pretty much proved my case in your above post. You were garbage until you got a controller. And the controller has aim assist. Therefore, you're garbage without the game helping you aim.

That's the kind of player that Halo 2 appeals to. If you suck, you'll enjoy Halo 2, because it's a terrible player's paradise. You don't have to worry about getting slaughtered due to another player's skill, because Halo 2 involves no skill at all.

Pfff really i dont suck at halo but i do know my grammar is s h i t this is something that isnt new to me. but frankly i dont give a flying F U C K about grammar on a video game forum. and yes im garbage at mouse at halo 2, but i had no problem with halo CE PC, call of duty MW2 PC, Combat arms, Star Wars Republic Commando, unreal, half-life, half-life 2, portal (not saying much wen it comes to aiming at portal), COD: WaW, and Star Wars Battlefront 2 prolly more but just listing PC games useing a mouse not bragging about games ive played.

EDIT: just for you, if you hate halo 2 mutli player so bad why talk about the main reason people play halo?

P.S. its for the "s h i t" multiplayer.

I'm only decent at FPS games, and I guarantee I could slaughter you at that game.

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
call of duty MW2 PC

Also takes no skill to play, but at least IW doesn't pretend it does.

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
Combat arms

That game is awful on so many levels. Still better than H2V, but that's its only 'deeming quality.

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
Star Wars Republic Commando

wat

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
unreal

That's the one game I know I could take a Halo 2oob 25-0 at without even trying.

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
half-life

Only decent multiplayer.

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
half-life 2

Suffered the same problem as HL1.

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
portal (not saying much wen it comes to aiming at portal)

Also has no multiplayer.

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
COD: WaW

See "CoD MW2" for relevant info

Posted by: L3gitK3nny
Star Wars Battlefront 2

People still play that? lol That was also a casual player's dream.

Because they are such players. If the multiplayer is crap, and tailored to favor crap players, than crap players (such as yourself) will gravitate to the game like flies to... well, it's been stated. :)

Like I said, you have shown ignorance. You don't know the difference in fact and opinion. A fact is something that everyone can agree and is just simply that way. An opinion is something that someone has an idea of how it is where someone else could easily disagree. Seeing from this thread, Halo 2 sucking is obviously an opinion. Just because you hate a game doesn't mean that it takes 0 skill to play. Grow up and learn that your opinions don't matter over anyone else's
