Yankees.Pwn.Sox.

Bishock is a good game, if you judge it on the demo then you fail.

Southeast Lancer Marines a place where you can go away from the Flood and all the flaming for other conversations

Whoa, that's the highest ping I've ever heard for Halo. The highest I've seen is around 2200ish.

And yes, I really hate people with slow connections and/or slow servers. It takes the fun out of trying to 3sk or snipe someone.

Listen up. There are thousands of people out there, among them the legendary aM Inspire, who are FORCED to play on dial-up connections.

Just because they don't play on anything higher on Dialup doesn't mean they're doing this out of choice. Some, like aM, are not able to receive dial-up in the area they live in. Is it right for us to hate on people like aM when he was uprooted and displaced from his (broadband-enabled) home and relocated into an area that doesn't provide anything higher than 56K?

Broaden your view, don't think narrow-mindedly, and stop posting without thinking.

If you don't like them, leave the game or put up with it. Besides, a competent player is able to put up with any situation, be it hell, high water or lag.

Ok, I think I'll have to correct my first post. I mean that I dislike lag, not the player themselves. There, happy?

I used to only have dial-up only in my area, but then Alltel showed up and now I can play Halo and other online games. Yes, I know, it sucks for them, but hopefully in due time they'll get better connections.

Then again, it's kind of stupid to buy a game that's going to be played most of the time online and you have bad connection (unless you plan on getting a better one or being like aM Inspire). It's like buying F.E.A.R. when you have a year '98 computer running XP.

And since we're on the subject of lag, I'd like to say that I hate the people who host their servers on their computers, but they lag the whole game when they lose (lag hack or whatever). Now THAT I hate.

ive gotta admit, 8000 ping is ALOT, ive only seen people with 5000-6000 ping, and trust me, i had to restart my computer, i couldnt even move my mouse, or even get out of the game. i waited like 5 min till the game cools down, but out of desperation, i restarted my computer...but dam, i cant imagine what a 8000 ping would do to anyone...

but still, you cant really hate people for it. some people are forced to have dialup, i know, becuase one of my clan member, who is also a good friend of mine at school, had to play halo on dialup. but after about a month of playing, he got dsl, it was a happy day for him and even me. so dont HATE those dialup players, the best thing you can do for them is pray that they get a better ISP so they can fully enjoy the games along with us. =)

Yep, exactly, like I said, hopefully they get a better connection. Soon no one in the world will have dial-up, as it is already obsolete in my book.

agreed. cant wait till every single goddam dial up ISP's die out. people who have dial up should get a better ISP fast, because theyre not going to be able to enjoy halo, as i have explained before.

cant wait till AOL, People PC, and all those other cheap (or should i say "overpriced" because hell, 29.95 for DIALUP?!?!?!) ISP's goes bankrupt.

Whoa whoa whoa, $30 a month for dial-up? Wow, the monopoly in those areas...so unfair! I pay like $20-25 for DSL.

WOW, 25-30 dollars juat for a 6k dial-up. Right now I pay 10-15 dollars for pretty high speed version of sbc, I think.

Ah, it's no matter. ^_^ Everyone screws up, and we all make mistakes in anger. (Hell, my post may've been too harsh.) The thing is, though, just don't assume things about people, such as that they "like" using dialup. It leads to misconceptions and makes mountains out of molehills, as the saying goes.

IMO, saying "I HATE LAGGING PLAYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!" is akin to saying "I HATE PEOPLE WHO GET COLDS!!!!!!!!!"

Eh, it was probably just a mess up in the netcode. I think 15000 is even worse than having dial-up.

But I agree with The Rizza to a certain extent. People should not have to put up with others lag. (I don't mind that much though.)

Especially when people use lag to thier advantage. Has anyone ever tried to catch someone with the flag when their ping is 2500? I stopped trying a long time ago.

i dont mind the people on dialup as long as they actually play the game, or die trying. What i hate is when a player comes in with 2000 ping, lags the entire server, and goes AFK. that SUCKS.
