I thought it made the game very interesting

Halo multiplayer sucks!

Based on campaigns

Halo 2 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo 3 > Reach/CE tied

Yes, it was part of what made Halo 2s story so good

Absolutely. It got really terrifying on Flood levels and unpleasant on Brute levels but fighting the Heretics was great.

Yes, but I didn't really care for all of the Flood levels that I had to play through by playing as the Arbiter.

Oh Yes!

Yes. I saw another side of the story which was fun to explore.

Off-topic: I never played much of the Halo 2 multiplayer, can anyone tell me how to sword fly? Youtube videos aren't helpful at all.

I run Skirmish!!!

yeah i loved the feel to playing as the covenant for once

  • 08.14.2012 3:17 AM PDT

I actually thought getting the play another side in the Halo universe made you see the Covenant's point of view on their sacred religious journey, their eventual demise, and the Arbiter's transformation from being a simple pet of the Prophets, to seeing past the lies and making his stand to stop the ring firings.

I think having the Arbiter's side of the game made Halo 2 the best campaign yet by Bungie.

Fada beo Halo 2!

I think it's the most interesting and well done campaign of the series mostly for that reason.

The Arbiter and elites are just awesome. :)

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

It was a great experience seeing the story develop from the Arbiter's perspective, especially the missions sacred icon, quarantine zone, and uprising.

Easy mode...
1. Go on Coagulation, limited ammo, sword and rocket starts.
2. Go close enough to a friend that the reticle for the rocket turns red without zooming in. Be sure to have an empty rocket launcher.
3. Fire and Press Y and X at the same time.
4. If this fails, spam Y and trigger, while pressing X.

Eventually, you will get it.

Black Ops 2 I run two accounts warmup only at 1.97kdr...real is at 3.77. i'm in master division 4 league play. pm 4 clan inv...must have 2.5 kdr or better

No, especially that chase level. It was tedious and unnecessary.

"What are we holding on to, Sam?"

Yes, definitely. I disliked having to constantly play Flood-based levels though; wasn't as interesting as Covenant fights.

I thought it was a good addition to the game.

I don't think you need to press X unscoped with the rocket.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

The Covie half of Halo 2 was what got Halo 2 the best campaign of the series.

  • 08.25.2012 11:45 AM PDT

No. It was boring as hell.

Vote for me for a free cookie.

Yes. Uprising was amazing

  • 08.25.2012 6:14 PM PDT

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

I loved it as well as the light it shed on the Halo Universe. Though, when playing as him I felt the need to use Covenant weapons exclusively...

This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.

Account Status: Silver :(

Not really. Halo 2 was ok, but it was too linear for me.
