but what you don't get is banning is unfair. because most of the stupid moderators don't even tell you your doing something wrong or to leave. They just ban you. it is stupid. I think there should be a warning system or like a bungie court where using chat they can deside if you desered to ban or not with a bungie halo moderator.

if the moderator see that the person shouldn't have been banned then he can unban from there server. I dont know just find a way to make it fair.

Banning will be included. If you are banned unfairly, play on a different server. If they are being jerks, just leave them alone.

I want:

1. Anticheat system
2. Linux dedicated servers
3. Decent netcode
4. Multifunctional server/dedicated server application which allows you to log massive amount of data (stats) as well as sort them out in many ways
5. Spectator mode
6. More options to custom games (foor example: respawn 0 sec, Magnums only).
7. Ability to use custom (own made) Emblems.


All of the above are very good ideas, especially numbers 2 and 3.

2 things on this one: perhaps read the rules on entering the server (there's another suggestion in itself, proper working MOTDs that can be read from webpages, a la CS:S) and you won't get banned for no reason. If you are banned for no reason, then quite frankly, the server's not worth playing on.

What, I think is that there should be a ban system, but a little different. The first attempt to ban you get warned and get a reason so you can stop and the second time they try to ban you if your still doing it. So that way everyone's happy. :)

Man i love ur suggestions. Becuase first of all AFK ppl piss me off especially in a slayer, becuase there just a free kill, so then u have some newb getting a kill and he may end up winning the game. I would also like to see u be able to Add Bots that u can set to differnt skill lvls. But adding a pelicon? i mean come on that really wouldent be very realistic haveing a big ass ship[ flying around? butr ur idea about some new vehicles is nice, maybe somthing from the humans side that can fly?

Well anyways this is all great but i really reall hope that 'BUNGIE' comes out with PC h2 fo all us that can't afford, Dont want an XboX or dont really wanna pay 100$ a year for Live.

I don't know, a pelican would work. Ok, the way this would work is increase the ammounter of characters in a match to 24, bump up the maps a lot, like make them bigger but maintain proportion. and there ya go, kinda like make the game a BF2 ish thing.

But uping portortion doesn't work, becasue if you're all left is going on by foot then it's gonna take a long time to get there, so even if you prototion the maps and players it still won't work. Let's just keep it 16 just in case. But are some pretty large maps like the size of BG and bigger pelicans would work.

Also, Plasma Pisstol thanks for the comment, but I didn't get the idea of new vechiles, other people started that, also about the ban people came up with the idea of making the banning system different, but I merely came up with a good idea of a ban system.

Also, please how about since so many people want to, talk about the banning system, lets come up with a good way. I think a good system would be having a warning ban the first time you try to ban someone, so they can stop, and if they still are breaking rules the second time they're banned. Also along with that, they should have playing voting system to kick them or ban them. So if they're a bad or corrupt moderator then the players can ban or kick them them by themselfs.

if you didnt notice the walk speed in halo is relatively slow... so if you made a bigger map, those unfortunate enough to not get in a vehicle will have a nice stroll ahead of them.

i dont think suggestions larger than tweaking an existing feature are worth making. Most change the entire game. If you change the game too much it ceases to be halo 2.

third party mods on the other hand... go ahead. not everyone will have to download it. But if they changed the entire game... wouldnt they have to call it something beside halo 2?

Ok i'm new here and i'm not from uk or usa soooo i may have some spelling problems, but i think that it is readible...now it would be nice to have better grapihs in the game....a better engine more like souce...but not too demanding, you know so it could be played on a mashine with 256mb ram, GeForce4 mx series - on a grapih card whitout pixel shaders....better multiplayer comunication - sound, but with a mute option...

Welcome to the Maw, your English is better then some of the English speaking members here. The graphics will be better because they will be using DirectX 10, however that will make the graphics requirements more demanding. 256MB of Ram and a Geforce4 MX barely ran the original Halo so I think were going to be looking at 128MB video cards to get desent fframerates in Halo2 PC. 512 MB will be the standard because you will probably need that to run Vista, unless they succeed in making it less memory intensive.

lol, thx. I just hope that win vista will be better than xp - faster, with a new cooler look, and that Halo 2 pc will realy see the sunshine....i waited for that game for a long time, and I thought that it will never be made for PC. It is a goot thing that it is coming out for PC - finaly I can just relax and see what will the guys from Bungie make.

Scaling things is easy. Skinning only works for bipeds in halo, and it would only help for deforming meshes, like a biped, not static ones like a bsp or vehicle.

we r?

I think most of the glitches should be removed, I was playing CTF on Danger Canyon, literally 6 seconds after we started we already had the flag, and we scored 4 seconds later. I don't know if there is an aimbot or what, but I know sometimes I get shot in the foot with full health and I die, I can see the vapor trail. I think the AFK boot time limit should be a minimum of one game. I mean, I have a broken foot, and it's gonna affect my life, so I can't go to the bathroom and back within 2 minutes. i can't believe that guy was AFK for 2 days, I don't even know how to tell.

Also fix the tendency, I shot a tank 3 times with another tank, and he did not die. I got shot once.

Here's a good one: It would be nice to have "custom coloring" for your multiplayer caracter - a option for custom coloring and custom "home made" avatars on your multiplayer caracter...hope you understand what am I trying to say...

NO NO NO AND NO!!

This isn't halo 3, this isn't halo 2.5, this isn't even halo 2 with added extras, it's Halo 2. The gameplay must stay identical, otherwise it wouldn't be halo 2.

O/k. I'm a new member. this is my first post .

I don't know if this has already been suggested but you know how they turned down the graphics on halo 1 for the pc version? Don't do that for the pc version of halo 2. If you NEED to, do it as little as possible.

You should add some new multiplayer modes. I was thinking something kind of like assault in the Unreal Tournament games. Two tames, and you give us a scenario. There are objectives to be destroyed. One team destroies, the other defends............just a thought........I mean..........I doubt this will be in the game.
