I dont understand why almost all of the people on these forums insist on whining about what bungie is doing. They create a low cost game for our pc and then we throw it in their faces because they havent had the time or ability to port the second title to the pc. I hope that the admin and the staff at bungie would agree that this is somewhat a slap in the face. Do you think that bungie makes all that much money out of the hpc sales!?! I dont think so, you know why because the price is 20.00 and after you divide that among all the parties that expect a part of the profits there isnt much for the company. I am truly thankful to bungie for creating a game and then allowing another company to create add ons and mods for their original creation. If they do decide to go on and create halo 2 for the pc I beleive it will be another great gift from bungie.

sincerely,

{FOX}Z0ero

P.S. Why does everyone insist on overexagerating the lag on HPC, if its that bad that you need to lead your shots then you should try for a new computer. I only get lag when someones ping is through the roof or the server is just bad.

I haven't seen any whining, only some threads debating whether recent job openings point towards a port.

I think he's more referring to the threads about ME King. Complainers telling Bungie to turn FF off Multiplayer.

Its not even that Bungie needs to turn off FF because most servers I play on are not Bungie servers. FF keeps a relative sense of strategy in the game.

Well, maybe Bungie and Microsoft really should consider making Halo 2 for PC. But that's just my opinion.

I dont know exactly know what your personality has to do with getting beat up by cops. But I can tell you that the whining about the servers has got to stop. There are more servers owned by people who arent bungie than the ones bungie has set up for us. Honestly i rarely have a problem with team killers, but thats just me. I realy hope that bungie never takes the ff off of their servers, this would take the little bit of strategy that is left out of the game. Think about it, if you where in the battlefield in the real world would you feel right being able to shoot straight through your fellow teammates, yes it would make war much easier but that isnt how things work in the real world. So why would that be a good idea to do in halo. Yes I know its a sci fi shooter but if you have any skill at all you would know that you shouldnt run right or directly behind all of your fellow team mates. Even if you and your team mates do not communicate you should have enough sense to flank and spread out on the field of battle. Now back to the real reason I posted in the first place, if there is a halo sequel in the works for the pc, then I will be grateful but bungie does not owe us anything.

Well we don't want know conflict people, i guess we have got alot of rumours and evidence about Halo 2 PC in the past few days... so lets leave it there. And yes i do only appear on the "Halo 2 PC" forums lol, that's not going to be anymore.

Yea weve got a conflict here, the people on these forums are rude. They are noobs who have to complain about everything because they dont have the skills to back up anything they say. They blame low scores on lag and tkers, but wouldnt you think that the tker would be the one with the low scores, so just ignore them because they will never amount to anything more than a tking noob. Not every server has a tker in it and actualy most of them dont. And the lag that everyone talks about is due to the fact that your trying to run halo on a dell built in 1995.

Z0ero,
Compared to other forum's, this one is lightyear's ahead. For maturity level and overall friendliness. You are dwelling on a few thing's someone said that you didn't agree with.

GET -blam!----ING OVER IT.

Later friend?

Im realy not talking about the way we interact to eachother on these forums. It is the way that everything is blamed on bungie. The most ungrateful people truly are the ones who reside in the maw.

Than why are you here? I think I speak for several on this forum, I take offense to that. What have you contributed to this forum? So far all I have read from you is COMPLAINT'S about COMPLAINT'S! You are no better than the people you -blam!- about. (according to you)

We all have a few beef's with how the game was ported, and supported. Yeah, the game is several year's old, but look how packed the lobby still is on multiplayer. People still play this game. It isn't asking to much to have some support, or at the least, some acknowledgement if something is going to be done about certain politic's with Halo.

This is a forum my irritable little friend. You can be a part of the community, or you can take a long walk off of one of the cliff's on Blood Gulch.

But if you are going to post, at least make it worth while.

I'm not even going to bother commenting that. You obviously have no clue what we are talking about and even less WHY we are talking about it.

Wow, never thought people could be so narrow minded. So far I have realized that my opnions are different and that is bad. Jus because I respect the things that bungie has done for us and the things that they are still doing for us. Just read that first post about ME a bungie official posted soon after and updated the ban list. What Im saying is that there arent that many tkers as you all are talking about. If bungie didnt care then they wouldnt create the sevent coumn, and they wouldnt have ported the game at all. As for how it was ported how was it done wrong? Gearbox did a great job making the transistion from console to pc.

Many of you are misinterpreting what Z0ero is saying. Dispite a couple nuances in his defense, he is just trying to say that he dislikes it in when people say this:

"Bungie is so ungrateful. They don't even care enough about us to have admins on their Bungie servers, to make new updates for us, or to make us Halo 2."

This is not a bad thing. If you look at it from a company's perspective, they have very little room to work with us here. When someone says, "They left us to rot", it's because Bungie did all they could for Halo PC, and they simply can't make gain off of it from doing any more with HPC, or they believe they can't. It's not evil for them to work to make profit, that's how capitalism rolls.

Plus, there's a very good chance we will have a Halo 2 : )

To sum it up, Z0ero is saying he is thankful for Halo PC. He gets just the slightest bit miffed when someone disses Bungie because they did not do enough for us.

I hear ya ab. I guess is what got me a little fired up was the simple fact that all of his post's..... be it starting his own thread, or, just commenting on someone else's thread, had nothing to contribute.... he just flamed.

I just took it a little personal reading some of his "anti-maw" post's. He profiled and I did the same....no pun intended. (i think ;)

Anyway's......don't dis us maw people, the majority are alright.

Happy hunting.

Thankyou ateabana i apreciate some understanding in here. And zen i am sorry if I got out of hand with the anti maw -ness. But i do honestly get fed up with the complaining. Maybe i was complaining abou tthe compaining but its the same as fighting for peace with war. And yes the majority of the people on the maw are alright, but there are a few people out there who are disrespectful and the forum doesnt need people like that and neither does the game. Of course i dont dislike everyone on the maw im part of it and when there are people who are nice enough to defend my opinions i greatly apreciate it.

I guess I get annoyed with Bungie/Gearbox/Microsoft because Halo PC is not what it could've been. They could have put in AFK autokick, a vote-ban system, and a friend/favorite server list because those are in other games. It's one of the greatest games of all time but the PC port was an afterthought. And even though it has bad lag there are still 2500+ players on-line and it was in the Top 20 PC sales two years after they released it. I just wish Bungie cared about it as much as we do.

Long paragraphs like that usually lose my attention quickly too. Try to break them up into other paragraphs.

Sore lag
No updates
No AFK kick
The ban problem
Dying online
compare the online numbers to COD1 and 2, any Unreal game, and so on.
