The reason Halo CE is dead is that it is not a dedicated SDK. Also, gearbox never took into cionideration the PCs extensive mod community, when porting Halo.

Mods are very hard to use with Halo and setting up Halo CE is a mess which puts most poeple off.

It should be like Half Life 2, where oyu just exxtract the mods to a folder and you activate them in-menu.

The few, the proud, the leet.

Correction on my part, there are over 4000 active and unique users who have visited the HIV server since rec0's server tool was installed.

Me user 3178! YAY!

Check out the Diesel PL dedicated servers. 1st is a good CTF rotation with the time limit set to 3 hours for each game, 2nd is always coldsnap (CTF, time limit 30 minutes), I think 3rd is always Blood Gulch CTF (MAJOR heavy whore infestation there), and 4th and 5th seem to change or dis/re appear on a daily basis. You will probably see me on 1st, 2nd or 3rd (HAL 9000). Just cause one of the servers is empty doesnt mean you should avoid it. Join it, and after about 5 minutes, more people will join. My personal guarantee. :)

-EDIT- In reply to stealth's post, I think SOMEONE needs to create a mod manager for Halo. Google Freelancer Mod Manager. That's EXACTLY what we need. Just for Halo.

Halo CE would also be more popular if there was a download thing where if you joined a server and didn't have the map you downloaded it right there.

Two problems.

1) Downloading a map takes up too much bandwidth.
2) Downloading a map takes up too much time.

Wow, they're like, totally the same problem. Just rotate 'Bandwidth' and 'Time'. LMAO!

Welcome to my signature, apparently I can't respond right now so please don't leave me a message, because I will not get back back to you after the beep.

Agreed. It just never took off. People are just too lazy to download Custom Edition, either that or they've never heard of it, and even then most of the people who downloaded it don't play it that much. It had so much potential, but now it's a desert wasteland only with a few nomads roaming the servers, small pockets of inhabitants that you'll see only once in a blue moon.

me = too lazy

I have a different perspective about this subject. You see If the game is so dead then why are so many people abusing my bandwidth :)

Over 1,879,857 Halo CE Map files and more than 50.57 Terabytes of data has been transferred since Jan 1 2005. - as of the time of this message.
