Bungie doesn't see gamers any more. They see walking credit cards.

we r?

it may not be able to reach the gamespy server. I'm pretty sure you don't need gamespy. It happens to me, and I don't know how to fix it, I just wait for it to come back on.

What does the error message say? If it reads:

Error: Halo can't connecct to the Gamespy master server.

or something along those lines, check your connection for consistency. Also, check for firewalls, set them to allow Halo, and open ports 2302/2303 for gaming.

Dude. Don't double post and stop whining.

Check to see if your firewalls are up. That might be a problem. (Might.)

It is always your firewall. There isn't any other obstacle that might cause it (unless you have seriously messed up your halo files).

Do it again for port 2303.

*"Bumping" topics. Bumping is a tactic used to keep a particular topic that isn't getting any replies on the front page of the forum by the topic creator making repeated, non-sensical posts...Excessive bumping is not tolerated by the forum ninja's or me, so just don't do it.
Although this isn't the case, the point is bumping is not allowed. Bumping is when you post in an old topic which no one has replied to in a long time. There's no point in digging up an ancient thread called "I love Halo's music" posted two months ago and then saying "I like Halo music too!!"

Quoted from here.
