Subject: How is the population for H2 V?

I'm pointing at the emu of elf excretion.

Lol relax guys. All I wanted to do was experience Halo 2 in a competitive environment where I could learn what made it such a great game, and wasn't willing to do it if the population was as such that it wasn't reasonable. I understand that smaller populations can make for a family like environment, and I appreciate the invite but I'm really not all that interested if the population tops off at 50 with not guarantee of an increase and more likely towards a decline. Maybe I'll consider Halo PC if the community on that is a bit larger.

And not that my opinion matters, but regardless of motive, lying about the population to gain new members is really silly. Just saying.

You should get Halo PC. As for h2v, it's just dying out. Only a few people play now, and the people who do play it end up starting flamewars with each other.

Attention Bungie, Thanks for 20 years of EPICNESS and 10 years of HALO!

As an H2V player, I find that insulting. We are not all rageing blabbering idiots. We are just split into a few close-knit groups and when that happens, tension can occur between groups easily. As for the game itself, you might want to do some research before you go posting incorrect information. The game is NOT dying out, in fact the population is growing with more and more H2 Xbox players discovering the game. However the growth is slow and the servers can still be dead at times.

Hey, I'm TetriS/r4v3n/Ryx. I've been modding Halo 1 pc since late 2008-2009, and playing Halo 2 Vista since summer of 2010. If you need any help with Halo 1 modding, just ask; I haven't modded in a while but I remember most of it.

I'm always up for a h2v game; message i4Ni TetriS and I'll get back to you.

Halo 1 has the insane lead-lag though. tbh it feels great to go back to h2v after playing CE for a few weeks.

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

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.

Why sarcasm? H2V sucks. I don't think I could say it sarcastically.

That's with a controller. Controllers get autoaim. l2look.

Your second link even shows the controller vs mk, further showing my point.

mk is the way to go. you're trolling in more ways than 1, and you suck at it.

No input device should get autoaim on the PC in a multiplayer environment. Ever. Not even a controller.

What I forgot to mention is that mouse support doesn't work correctly in H2V. Turning is broken with the mouse, but works perfectly with the n00b troller.

Fada beo Halo 2!

Not good...

Attention Bungie, Thanks for 20 years of EPICNESS and 10 years of HALO!

I really don't care about what any of you think and say. If you suck so much at H2V that you hate it (or you happen to be good but just run into n00b hackers all the time), then don't even post about it. Just because you feel that it sucks dosent mean it does. Likewise just because I think its awesome dosent mean it is. However, I would rather keep my copy H2V then my copies of Reach AND H3. Im not trying to insult anyone here but if you hate it so much then why post about it?

Implying that there's such a thing as a good H2V player. lol

We save prospective buyers from disappointment. Saying H2V is good is misleading. Saying it's some phenomenal PC FPS experience with a booming population and incredible multiplayer is just flat-out lying, and people need to know that.

Yes there are good H2V players, including me.

However this^ is true.
Im just saying that while its far from the greatest game in the world, its not terrible. Personally I think its awesome, but could be better. It was the first Halo game I owned (but not the first one I played/beat) so I will always feel this way.

Living embodiment of everything I've ever posted about H2V right there.

Well, you and Ben.

Some things in this World you just can't explain; but that doesn't mean they are any less true, just that you have to chose to believe in them.

Either it's a lie or we're all seeing different things in the "Live Game Browser", but I'm inclined to go with the former.


I'd say so, when I play online there's like 2000 people on my server.... Usually more then that.

  • 05.18.2011 8:22 AM PDT

I'm sure your talking about Halo PC right?

RIGHT??????


Wait wait wait.... 2000 people on one server?

H1PC. The gameplay is significantly more skill-based, there's a much larger population, kb/m isn't hindered, it's a better optimized port with no compat issues with any OS post-XP, and you don't have to deal with GfWL to play.

Now I play the waiting game.

Halo PC, never going to find a shortage of players but you do have to learn to compensate for the lag by leading the target a fair bit.

H2V is almost dead, while you don't have to lead, the game's buggy and the fact a controller is for some reason more accurate than a K+M just makes the whole game not worth it.
