t`ll be a new game and not just a simple port so lots of things can be done with it...if they actualy want to....ok don`t do much with the Singleplayer but in the Multiplayer dept. you could add tons of new content wich makes the game infinitly better then then xbox version
its not a new game, its the same game on a different platform, and thus a port. true lots of new things can be done but as the popular yet annoying saying goes "if it ain't, broke dont fix it.". its true that some things could do with alittle more tweeking, and some new features should be added.
I think that the BR should have a swith firing mechanism. Like you can switch it to burst fire (Halo 2 version) And single shot version (E3 Demo). Iggwilv put that, thats a great idea and can save you ammo on Legendary!
its not so much a bad idea, infact i would love to use that, but the problem is that there are already guns to support those functions (smg, pistol), as much as those might suck, they are there so there isnt an all in one combo rifle. Besides if it is put into the single player it will be demanded that it be put into the multiplayer and would need to be rebalanced.
Oh, third idea... Allow us to play against those on xbox too. Have it like a new option for the xbox players to decide if they want to block out all PC servers or not, and only allow PC players play on PC. That way, the xbox players can have privacy, but still play against us.
interesting idea, so you mean just have another matchmaking option for playing against people on PC? might push people to move to the pc version, especialy if they know they are missing out on some neat little extras like new warthog skins and stuff.
i don't mean press a button and do manuvers, i mean full control of the figher or whatever... Which means you'll have to change the controsl for the banshee... the problem is, do those manuvers and such and your'e still putting up with the same crap. How about freeflight controsl where you have to press the straif buttons to turn on your side and such and press down to go up and up to go donw or something like that rather than continually making slow annoying little effect horizontal turns.
it would be nice to just hold strafe untill you are upsidedown, and it would take some skill to dodge a rocket like that (not entirely sure how it would all work though). having to use the movement controls for moving isnt such a great i dea (wsad, or arrows). the forward button is used to increase your forward momentum, and back to slow it. but to change the left and right buttons, from strafing to the left or right would be silly. being able to strafe can be a usefull manuever, more so than being able to fly upside down i think. also strafing isnt for turning, its for well strafing, if you need to turn use your mouse...
Have you seen some of the CE stuff? Alot of people have very high standards for their work. There are a great many custom textures that look as good, if not better than bungies. Don't bash the modding community because in many cases, they can produce superior work.
dont give me that crap, ive worked with mods, and ive seen some very impressive things, i am not "bashing" the modding community by any means. but as i, and i would assume you, are well aware, the modding community doesnt always come out with the best stuff. alot of people release crap that is based around fart jokes, and over the top swearing. so im just saying that i would like it to be released by bungie because then it is guaranteed to be of excellent quality, and there will be no waiting period for the mod to be released.
If money was a problem, we wouldn't even be getting halo 2... Then again... Unless i find away other than through the internet to get some PC parts, i'm screwed. I have no way of getting anything online with money... I'm kinda screwed, ya know? And i'm sure there are other people, even younger people who have htat problem. I just want 256 to at least fit the minimum requirements...
man i need to watch what im typing more often, at one point in my post i meant the common standard is 512mb. in anycase look at the games being released now. alot of minimum requirements are 512mb of ram. not that it applies but the game F.E.A.R. has a minimum video card requirement of a nvidia 6600. and this is similar to the 56k thing heres a quote of my post about that, its pretty much applies.
just because you cant get dsl doesnt mean that you should instantly be allowed into a broadband intensive area. thats like saying "i cant get/afford a good suit so ill just go to the fancy dance in my overalls.", if you did that, you would probably be stopped at the door. and if you were let in, you would be hampering the experience of everyone else, and you would be scorned. (pretty good for on the fly), once again i will say i dont intend to be mean, but thats how it is, and at this particular dance i say the overalls go.

replace "dsl" with "better computer hardware", im sure that you will be able to comprehend all the little innuendoes.
Port to XP. Definitely.
Maybe Mac too? I don't really care about anything else; I'm fine with any way they do the online, but definietely make it XP compatible.
(has not read the whole topic)
Edit: And DO NOT add the Fuel Rod... just no. It killed halo PC, don't do it to Halo 2.
yeah i figured you havnt read the whole topic, and they havnt said anything about mac yet, and xp is not gonna happen. as for the fuel rod it should definately be allowed. it just doesnt have to be added to any "official" gametypes. so if you dont like the fuel rod, either dont put it in that particular game, or find another server, or i suppose you could find a way to get around it.
