If the H2PC team really are looking in here i think that they should include an extra level.. the one in the E3 demo.

Ya maybe the E3 demo, thats a good idea, I mean just include it you don't have to make it Halo 2 PC dx10 level, but add it in as a bonus the way it was in E3, don't update it if they don't have the time, but if they have some extra time, like a couple weeks, update it.

I think health should be incorporated, to me it's stupid to be able to survive a sniper shot, and then you are fully healed, so basically you can survive infinite sniper shots, if you get shot once, then the shields respawn to full strenght. Not dying while falling is still good.

Ya, I think the new health system is as good as the first, you die just as fast or faster in almost all situations.

Pretty nice video fastmatt, Maybe you should post that in your sig.

Ya, but there are new and other methods to achieve the same results in halo 2, and even with the ability to be destoryed they can lauch them even higher.

Don't know if this has already been added. I'd be surprised if it wasn't required by Microsoft - but whats the deal with 64-bit support? Games such as Far Cry and Half Life support it.. Is this the reason for the delay.. porting a 32-bit engine to a 64-bit? If not, 64-bit.. you better support SMP/Dual Core. :D

Wait, Halo2 does not have health; only shields, that doesn't make sense. Shields should protect against initial damage and anything else is to the person which needs to get healed. And there is no fall damage in Halo2. That's totally retarded. If you walk off a cliff you die, that the way it goes.

OK so let's decrease the amount of damage you take per 10 feet dropped so that you can fall farther without taking lethal damage, but eventually he's going to reach a fall velocity that will kill him despite his enhanced reflexes and armor.

I have never posted on bungie forums, but because nobody has mentioned this and this is probably the only opportunity ill have in influense the halo 2 pc game, here goes:

I think they should add split screen feature for co-op and multiplayer games. a couple years ago i bought a game controller for pc and its a lot of fun to play serious sam with split screen with my friends. for those of you who say that it is impossible to play with a game controller against people with a keyboard and mouse, I've beaten the entire halo 1 game on heroic and most levels with legendary with my controller,

i kinda liek no fall damage though since all the drops, and falls in H2 arent really that big anyways.


This isn't a big fall? Plus he blows himself back up top with no damage. C'mon give me a break, if I want to do crap like that I'll play Mario.

I know halo 2 shoudln't have health, but it should, I don't like it how person A snipes person B in the foot (taking down shields, but not a kil), person B takes cover and survives, and person A snipes him again, and it repeats, and person B survives. Person B should not be able to take that many hits and not die, he should have really low health, and the next shot should be the kill, so 2 shots and dead, like halo

have you tried to put any of our Ideas in the game?

I can't comment on anything specific but given all the ideas and suggestions it's safe to say some of them have been discussed :)

thats an Exploit ointo the Havoc engine, and if you notice he killed the guy that was standing there, thus havok made his fall take no damage.


So if there was no one there he would have died from the fall? And what explains his firing a rocket point blank at a wall and accelerateing upwards 200 ft to the top of the tower? It's this kind of stuff that bugs me, if its a mod OK, but if thats the way the engine works I hope they fix it to make it more realistic.
It's fine and dandy that you killed the guy at the bottom, I would expect as much if you land on someone traveling 50m/sec, but there is no way you should walk away from that.
