Have to go to single player first. Tackle the entire campaign before even touching online play.

If it wasn't for Campaign, I probably wouldn't still be playing Halo 2.... nearly a year and a half after its release. Yeah. That's the ticket. Obviously Campaign is the most important to the majority of people here. That would explain the snails pace that the New Mombasa forum used to keep as opposed to the fast and furious speed of Zanzibar. Yep, they were all talking about how much better Campaign was. In Zanzibar. The Multiplayer forum.


Really? I'm detecting sarcasm.

Let's sum up the Zanzibar forum with the normal topics seen there:

I GOT MODDED
I GOT STANDBYED
Noob combo!
Poll: Noob combo
Poll: Should the noob combo be removed
Superbouncing is not cheating!!
Poll: Superbouncing cheating?
Bungie fix yer game!!!!111!
Way to fix cheating
Idea to fix modding
idea to fix standby
I don't cheat
I was wrongly banned!!!
Bungie fix yer game!!!!

That about sums up the topics that would pop up hourly in the Zanzi forum. I would rather a forum move at a snails pace than be filled with that spam crap. Thank god it's gone.

Just like last last time the good ole Spartans of Mason will obtain 8 copies at midnight and play for 24 hours on system link. Then there will be campaigning in solitude for many more hours. Then we will take our place on Live.

Campaign. I am confident that Bungie will put more into the campaign this time around.

That Zanzi was, sadly, a spam fest has no bearing on which is better, Campaign (for nerds who love to relive Aliens) or mulTiplayeR (for winners).

I'll more than likely rip into the Online play, first thing.

I didn't have XBL when I got Halo2, hell, it was the sole reason I ended up getting XBL. So that resulted in my not being totally caught up with everything going on in the multi-player.

I plan to get caught up this time.

The Sentinel Beam isn't excluded from Matchmaking due to any performance concerns. It's excluded because it's ridiculous. It may as well be firing super-accelerated clowns. - Shishka

I'll play a few online matches with other halo fans. Then I'll start the campaign.

Read about my gaming here.

This is how I see it, no one, absolutely no one should be allowed to play online before they complete the campaign at legendary. This is because playing against people who are new isn't fun, playing with people who are new isn't fun.

Playing against new people aren't fun becasue they are not a challange, aim, shoot, dead and then again, aim shoot dead

Playing with people who are new isn't fun becasue they drag the team down real bad.

Playing against people who know their ways are fun to play against becasue it's more aim, run, aim, shoot shoot shoot, miss miss, be hit, run, cover, grenade, etc etc

So by completing the campaign at legendary would get all those new people know the game, know what to do, how to do and when to do it.

But that's how I see it

So I guess you think I'm going for the campaign first, then your right, campaign legendary first, later to kick ass in multiplayer.

That was entirely my point.

Campaign (for nerds who love to relive Aliens) or mulTiplayeR (for winners).

What's more nerdish? Passing time playing a great shoot 'em up game when you don't feel the need for a competition, or, fighting against a bunch of pre-teens, all while wearing a headset screaming at a television to GET THE FLAG! Grab the bomb! Noob combo whore!

Multiplayer is fun, but I wouldn't say it's for winners. Also, don't say the campaign is for nerds when you're basing that entirely on opinion.

I'll do like i did with Halo 2, I'll play campaign until I get about 3 levels into it and it's too difficult, then I'll go play online with a bunch of other crappy players for fun instead.

which reminds me, I'm making a proposal at the BFG rules conference that anyone who has finished the game at legendary will be banned from tournament competition for use of performance enhancing agents.

  • 05.11.2006 10:52 AM PDT

I miss the mark of shame on my shoulder. :(

Campaign. I gotta see the story unfold!!!
