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

H2PC sucked, and MS doesn't care about PC.

Halo 3 would've been better for PC.

Higher RAM means a lot. :3

That's my gripe. Halo CE is so outdated it's ridiculous, and nobody plays Halo 2 (and it sucks). In the larger maps of CE you can't even see the other side due to loading zones.

Not loading zones.
Clipping aka render distance.

All correct except Halo 2 came out in 2004 not 2003.

If it was a load zone, there would be more then 1 map. Look at lumoria for example, then look at a Bungie SP map.

for some reason, I dont remember halo 1 and halo 2 coming out in the same year

Bungie and Microsoft are making fun of PC gamers. They can't port Halo 1 and Halo 2 to PC without letting us to finish the fight.

They don't know how to make PC games, perhaps they need Valve to do the porting work. xD

Something that people don't seem to understand. Until ~2001 Bungie was an indie studio. "Indie" means that they make the game and publish it. When microsoft acquired them they became a game development studio. They made the game and then microsoft would publish it. It is up to the publisher to decide what platform they want to target. Halo 1 was ported to PC because it was already in the works to be a PC game when Microsoft acquired them. Microsoft owns the rights to Halo 1, 2, 3, ODST, and Reach (I don't know enough about Wars, but I'd imagine so). It is entirely up to microsoft if they want to do a port to PC or not. Also, considering that sawnose still updates Halo PC and they included a special nameplate feature in Reach for people that had Halo PC and still played clearly indicates that they don't forget their PC roots. Anyone that knows Oni, Marathon, Myth, PiD, and Minotaur knows that they are dedicated to delivering a quality product to PC. I still have my marathon CD and manual. In the manual was a card with the full retail serial plus a network serial. This network serial was designed so that when you bought the game you could install it on a second computer on your network and play LAN games. I have not seen many game devs that would do this. It is not that they don't care or that they are making fun of PC gamers, they are unable to do it.

Halo 1 PC/Mac getting a nameplate for Halo Reach is probably the last thing that happens for them.

You are projecting based on no information. This makes your opinion valid and informed

And when did sawnose last update Halo, and how is he still updating Halo?

And the last thing that did happen was the nameplate.

you find a multiplayer bug or game flaw and send it to him he will try to fix it. i've done it before, he will look into what you have to say and the issue that it causes. He is able to update halo because he was given access to the code from microsoft to keep it updated.

  • 02.22.2011 9:54 AM PDT

Dirk_Gently is right. That's the truth.
However i still believe that Microsoft is making fun of PC gamers. Why the hell do they release Halo 1 and Halo 2 for PC, without continuing the series? It's a matter of coherence.
Fable III is an Xbox360 exclusive too, but it is coming to PC.

And the only updates are serverside patches to stop exploiters, and then he said that he wasn't fighting a hacker war on a 7 yr old game.


Translating....

DONE!

Bungie doesn't care.

REALLY?
O_o

Can you or anyone confirm this?
I never thought sawnose would patch over 1.09

I don't care about that game.

@JacobGRocks ok, my PMs indicate his willingness to look at problems differently than what you say, but whatever.

I don't know, I haven't PMed him. But then again, there aren't any public crasher/looper apps, only private ones.

Yep, people that make them normally contact the devs about the fix.

If it's public, yes, but when it's private, they never contact the devs. They share it around with their elitest friends so they can boom servers and be elitest.

  • 02.22.2011 11:45 AM PDT

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

It's possible for them to get it done, it's just not worth the hassle.

Sounds like someone is butt-hurt.

Tell that to Rainman116 and shock120 about their 81e4 exploit.

No 1.09 bugs or 1.08 bugs there, yet crashers do exist in the hands of few. I know because 1.08 patched some and gandanur patched some in 1.09

Know that not everyone releases exploits. The 81e4 h2v exploit was private for a long time until some nub released it. Welcome to the hacker elitest scene.
