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.

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.

Well, there are also these things called "delusions." Basically, if something's a fact, and someone believes the opposite regardless of fact, it's a delusion. It's already an inarguable fact that Halo 2's multiplayer is noobified. Therefore, those that believe otherwise are delusional.

But it does take 0 skill to play. Believing otherwise is, like I said, a delusion.

Believing a game is good or bad is not a matter of fact. It is a matter of opinion. Go talk to an English professor and I promise you they will say the same.

the fact is that anything good or bad is a matter of opion. i hate sea food other people love it so I agree with dr syx. btw the way halo 2 vista is talked about we might as well be argueing weather republicans or demicrats are better.

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.


You miss the point. Everyone who plays H3 and Reach gets the same aim assist, so the playing field is equal. H2v gives an unfair advantage to the controller user, something you admitted in the previous post. They completely screwed over mouse users.

Go on Youtube and search for H2v aimbot, and you'll see that it is much worse than people using a controller. Virtually nobody aimbots on Halo PC anymore, but H2v is a cheating frenzy. Why anyone would play H2v is beyond my understanding.

Years ago people used to say that Halo PC was left to rot. Perhaps true, but Microsoft and Bungie truly have left H2v to rot.

I've been playing for hours every day for the past 2 months. I've only seen one hacker and been accused of hacking twice (By the same guy, "SillyMarsh A7x") Which, of course, I'm not a hacker. I didn't even want to use the trainer, even for Campaign to get the Scarab Gun. I just think that people blindly say people are hacking when either their internet is terrible or the person is just good. I've only seen one person using hacks before. That's it. (Btw, I think its stupid when people can mistake bad internet for hacks.)

You can't "see" people cheating on H2v.

You'd think you'd understand that concept considering people have hackused you of cheating too.

the person is just good.

Any person with an IQ over 80, after watching that video I just posted, would know that there's no such thing as "good" in Halo 2. Hell, 5 minutes in the damn game will show any decent FPS player that the game takes no skill.

It's not a matter of opinion. I'm basing what I say on facts. Lemme lay it down for ya, since you're either clearly not smart enough to have picked it up by now, or are one of the delusional people that my previous post mentions.

FACT: Halo 2 has a heavy amount of aim assist, more than any other Halo game available, helping weak players that can't aim for themselves.

FACT: Halo 2's bullets and projectiles will home in on a target with a sort of magnetic pull, rewarding bad aim.

FACT: There is no fall damage, and therefore, no penalty for an idiot slipping off a cliff.

FACT: The hitboxes scale in such a way that a sniper shot can miss someone's head by a yard in-game, yet the shooter will still be awarded a headshot, which rewards bad aim.

FACT: The lunge is about 15-20 feet of in-game space, homes in on a target, and is much more powerful than Halo 1's melee. This caters to players who can't even aim at all.

Yes. Some people like all of those facts. I personally don't. I don't like Halo 2 over any other Halo. I like Halo: CE more. All I'm saying is that you can't say, for a fact, that Halo 2 sucks. That is a matter of opinion. Its actually my least favorite Halo.

Also, I've played Halo PC for a long time, I can tell when someone is hacking. I'm not an idiot. Its not like I was thinking there was a giant sign over their head saying "HI! I'M HACKING!" but you CAN tell when someone is using an aimbot. Yes, I was accused of hacking, which supports what I'm talking about. People mistake things as hacking when the person is NOT hacking.

What I'm trying to put, as my point, is that for the people who want to play Halo 2 online again, Vista is actually good, in my opinion. It doesn't completely replace how good it was on the Xbox, but it is really really close. Closest you're going to get. Plus, you get achievements out of it.

FTFY.

H2 isn't even that much of a bad game, It has it's flaws but it is by NO means a game that should be taken seriously. And that is what some noobs just don't understand.

It depends. Sometimes it works, other times it's "Live gaming on Windows failed to initialize"

I don't think anyone here sees 0 problems with Halo 2 Vista. I like it more than I hate it. The only major problem that effects me, that I've noticed, is the lack of people. I understand what a lot of other people are talking about with the mouse, but I'm a lot beter WITH a mouse. So, I guess I just don't notice it as much as other people.

Attributable to the fact that most PC gamers know what makes a game good, and H2 doesn't have it. Not so much the case with console kiddies.

Alright, so, when it installs properly, you LIKE Halo 2, you're good with using the mouse instead of controller (Me), and all you're interested in is playing the multiplayer, the game is pretty awesome. xD

(Also if you want to play Campaign)
i use a mouse and it works fine :P

Halo 2 Vista is wholly unfair to the people that use m/k, and the multitude of troller users (including myself) is discouraging anyone from playing competitively, let alone play at all.

For example, I have a pretty nice setup for any other competitive PC game - Razer DeathAdder, Saitek keyboard - but since I play CS:S and Quake Live, which both have extensive options for sensitivity and all, I don't feel the need to install the mouse drivers, because I don't need my mouse to be slowed down by software in order to play those games.

However, in Halo 2 Vista, there's only 10 options for sensitivity, and my mouse is way too fast on all of them. GJ, devs.

Also, the vast amount of aim assist with the troller is even more incentive for me to use it, although I feel I could play better if there were more sensitivity options or some sort of console, like in CS:S/Quake.

Chill,I respect your views.But I feel like your demeanor toward the game is just too NOSTALGIC.The game is mediocre as stated,but you're opinions make it seem that Halo 2 and Halo 2 Vista was atrociously bad for a FPS.And the generic "does not take skill" quote.This has been already overused most FPS games.It is self-evident that Games are a form of escapism which most people find it hard to believe,and games were created for entertainment purposes.It's rather to enjoy then expressing the lack of skill of a game making a comparison with one another.I find it amusing that for a while you have been bashing Halo 2 also Halo 2 Vista for a few years at course.I admit Halo 2 didn't really "take much skill",however the funny moments of the game and mods,super-bounces and the community is what makes it a great game.

Delusion?Not really.Experience is not delusional,Just your mind and ideals are what really causes you to be the deluded.

Before,stating that I am a hypocrite.I notice the games flaws in my posts on the game and complain.But not hatefully bash it.

TL;DR :]
