Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

What is your connection speed for you internet and what type of service do you have?(cable, dsl, dialup)

Also, what site are you downloading it from?
Try this site for downloading it. I usually have fast downloads there. To get better downloads, register for a free account. That way it has no waiting, and the speeds are faster than normal. You can also sign in with your IGN account if you have one.

I just got CE, and I downloaded the setup from halomaps.org and it didn't work, but I went to haloimpulse.com and they had a file that worked for me. It took ten minutes to download, but I have a pretty good wireless router so you'll have to see how that works for you.

Hello!! Halo CE is a multi-player version of Halo. It allows people to create their own levels with the HEK. You can also play online with other people with custom maps!!

Well, that might be it, I'm afraid. You might be stuck with finding a good time to dl it, and setting it up to do that while you go about your business. You can do it overnight if you can leave your computer on.

Try having a friend with broadband downloading it for you and burning it to a CD. You can also try finding a magazine that has it on their disc.(I don't know if there are any, but there might be one)

Hey P1i2z3z4a5,
If you get Mozilla Firefox it will allow you to pick up where you left off when downloading ce. Just in case you wake up the next day only to find out that the night before when you started to download ce, it quit five minutes after you retired for the night. With Firefox you can pick up from when it quit, so you dont have to start all over.

Or you can get a dsl or cable connection. It took me 15 mins with my cable. Maps take me about 5 mins. But I'm not trying to rub it in....hehehehe.

Good luck.

I have no idea what you said, please take a sedative and then take more than 20 seconds to write down what your problem is.

paint cannot read this file.
this is not a valid bitmap file, or its format is not currently supported.
