I just wanted to say how impressed I am with Halo, many video games today such as anything made by EA like BF2 are full of bugs and everybody at their forum does nothing but complain about how they cant play becasue foftheir ATI cards or the fact that they dont have a brand new computer. So thank bungie for making a game that is fun, works well on any computer ive seen it installed one. So thanks again. Keep up the good work.

Just because we don't post much doesn't mean we don't read the messages.

Grim had made a comment about Bungie employees not coming into the Maw.. I was just saying that because we (Bungie employees) don't post in the Maw much doesn't mean we don't check out the messages.

I think he is disproving your assumption by posting. The wording of his post suggests that he is a Bungie employee. But I was under the impression that Bungie employees have custom avatars and yellow text.

Yes I was disproving the assumption. You are probably correct about the custom avatars and text color; I'll figure out who to talk to here to get it "fixed".

They do. Even the ones that aren't forum mods/ninjas. Seems to me that he's fibbing a little bit.

That convinced me he's legit.

*throws pillow case over Dommers head and ties him up with rope*

Some one grab his feet, we'll take him to the interrogation room and pump him for info on H2 Vista!

We can start with 50 hours of sleep deprivation and then start to grill him. I'll play good cop who wants to be the bad cop.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

It took you that long to see the custom title? :p

Welcome to The Maw.
I am glad to see that you are reading our posts, and hopefully implementing the best ones into H2 PC.

FYI, his title originally said "Member" It wasn't until he posted the second time that he changed it.

50 hours?? That could be rough; I haven't been up anywhere near that long since helping ship Counter-Strike for Xbox a couple years back..

Are you talking "American Wedding"good cop / bad cop (from the American Pie series)? If so, then.. hmm.. tempting and I may go for that. Otherwise I'll pass :)

Forget HIM, somebody go grab that copy of H2PC lying on his table!

And while you're at it, I'll swipe his shiny new Visita DVD...

Thanks.. It's been interesting reading the posts over the last few months and I'm looking forward to more interaction here once we're able to release more details about the game.

Maybe you should look at Dommer's rank. HALO 2 VISTA TEST LEAD. Does that look like the generic Member to you?

Having the same blue text is part of staying on the down low (or is it the low down?) :)

My rank didn't change until around 12:45pm PST today so any posts from me before that just had rank of "member". After McKeegan_WRX pointed out the different color text is when I talked to Achronos to get my rank "updated".

Hey Dommer, are you going to stick around for us to ask you some questions? Or at least...as much as you're at liberty to say? I think I can whip up a batch of questions soon...

Got em. Speaking on behalf of Halomapscouk, if you could answer as many of these questions as you are able to, we would all appreciate it greatly...

Are the graphics going to be massively improved over the Xbox version?
Are there going to be any major improvements/new parts to the engine
Are there going to be any additions to the weapons/vehicles currently in H2Xbox?
Do they have a level editor right now or is that still to come?
Has bungie considered a way to reduce lag on its games?
What kind of server control options will server operators have?
Can you tell us anything about the release date for H2PC?
If the beta is already out, will H2PC be released right after Visita is released? Will it, in other words, be a "launch title" for Windows Visita?
Is bungie planning to provide real content/balance fixes in patches?
Has Multiplayer experience in general been improved since H2Xbx?
Will there be anything in the PC version that was cut out from the Xbox version due to the notorious time constraints on H2Xbx?

Thanks for your time! Even a single answer would be appreciated.
