I couldn't imagine the power needed to host a 64player match. But let not beat a dead horse or argue about somethng that has been already decided on. What I want to know is will you need to subscribe to Live Anywhere to play Halo2Vista Multiplayer.

Come on, Halo 2 PC is a port, from a two year old console game. You're going to be lucky if we get any increase in player support at all. H2 PC isn't it's own game, they're translating the Xbox version to PC, not making a new one, so increasing the maximum amount of players in a game is harder, because they're not starting from scratch.

In the update, it said that PC users will play against each other, both versions will be isolated, this along with dedicated servers will mean that there will be no pay to play online. Hurray.

Keep the 'hit' tone you get when you hit something. "boop boop boop" You killed New001

Oh yes! The "ding"! I forget all about that. I get dings all the time when I pwn noobs. XP

They should have an option to disable that.

YEAH!!!!! Finally Halo 2 on PC! In Halo 2 for Xbox you can play as an Elite in multiplayer. That'd be great if you could do that on PC. Also on Xbox Ghosts can "boost". If you could do that by pressing "B" or something that would be pretty sweet too. Thanks for hearin' me out Bungie guys!

Pardon me being extremely nieve, but whats an ODST?

Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, or "Helljumpers" as they prefer to be called. They drop down from orbit onto a planet in pods with parashutes. It's all in the books.

Of course! Why wouldn't they allow players to use Elites for their avatars? And why would they take out the boost function?

Btw, please don't double post.

They need to adapt the game for the mouse and keyboard, so you can host password protected servers in addition to inviting players.

Auto aim is just retard on a PC. There is no need, and just because someone is better than you doesn't mean you should get auto aim so you can kill him.

The aim asssist is for the controllers becuase it is harder to aim. Most PC games don't have it, so my guess is it will be removed for H2V as well.

And, they're almost as high up on the cool scale as Ninjas!
