It would be awesome if people who have Halo 2 for vista could make maps, then transfer those maps to xboxlive marketplace, so that people with halo 2 for the xbox and people who have a 360 could download the maps.

Well I can't wait for it, personally.

Same. I'm REALLY looking forward to the map editor.

Don't expect it to be easy. I remember when I was making stuff for Custom Edition. Took some time to learn and get used to. The official tutorial that came with the tools sucked.

Ah, lovely. I have been waiting for some information on ready for this: H2V. Another acronym, yay. I also see that the almighty search function has arrived. I say thanks to the web team, the search function pwns.

Trailer Park Boys ~ One of the best Canadian made comedies ever.

I hope Xboxlive does not be in Halo 2 vista online. That would RUIN the game. They are already bad enough against cheaters in xboxlive, if they go to pc, its going to be worse.

Really cool stuff though! I can't wait to create my own campaigns, maps, ect. I wonder how much server rental is going to be, maybe reveal that in a future update?

I really can't wait for this to come out. One of the things i want to see is if they will be adding new maps to H2V (if this was already mentioned im and idiot). I also just bought a 19" lcd screen that has definately brought crystal clear gaming into my life. Halo 2 is already awesome on my hdtv in my livingroom, but it will look so much better on my new lcd screen.'

I am hoping that H2V will come with an extremely user-friendly map/content creator because i was a little disappointed with Halo Custom Edition. The fact that i needed a pretty expensive model app was a huge disappoinment, and downloading it through limewire or kazaa was not an option. (tons of people have done this) I hope that the map maker will be "Roller Coaster Tycoon-like" and it will be click and drag type of instances, rise and drop land, and have tons of set buildings to add in.

One thing i thought of is that it would be cool to be able to go into the multiplayer area, see all the games running at that time, and if someone is playing custom content at that time and you dont have it, you should be able to download it right there and play. (just a suggestion but you guys prolly got things like that covered)

The top reason i want to get H2V is because its halo, duh!!!!1!11one11

I am also pretty set for Vista when it comes out as well :)
p4 2.8ghz
GeForce 6600 GT
100GB hdd
2.5 Gb ram

I wonder if the 360 controller will be adaptable wih halo 2:Vista, that would help me since im a noob at PC games! Being able to create custom designed maps is gonna be awsome.

(10:19:49 PM) Scruss: oh and pezza, i saw what you did to that cat
(10:20:17 PM) Pezza: You were the one with the video camera breathing heavily. Of course you saw.

Looks good, can't wait.

  • 08.24.2006 8:58 PM PDT

What it is.

all i hope is that i can run it max settings:

AMD 64 3700+ clocked at ~2.2ghz(rated at ~3.7ghz)
2GB DDR
XFX Geforce 7900GT
470GB(total, lol)
SB Audigy2 ZS

i know i will run the game fine, and i already run Vista(Beta 2) fine, so i pretty much cant wait.

Something to desire: The lost levels of Halo 2.

I've heard that Halo 2 had three of its levels cut off, due to the launch date. I wonder if Bungie would ever decide to release those levels with Vista...

One thing that I think will be a major issue with this Halo 2 for PC thing is the modding. People will go nuts on the modding because now they don't have to transfer files to their Xbox or Xbox 360 and it will be as bad as the amount of modders on original Halo. This would be the only damper for me not getting Halo 2 vista thingy. Another thing, I love playing with a controller because it's more free and when I wake up in my bed I reach over and put on my 360 headset, turn on my controller which turns on my 360 and I start playing Halo 2. If I had a match against myself with me playing on my controller and then on keyboard and mouse I think it would be even for the main bulk of playing but when it would come to sniping keyboard and mouse are so much better because you just push your mouse straight to the head and BOOM headshot! Apart from sniping kind of stuff I very much prefer my wireless Xbox 360 controller.

Can't wait for all the wonderful cheating that will go on thanks to the ease of the PC moding. The online world will be great! I just hope Vista players aren't able to play on xbox live.

I have a feeling that there will never be a Halo 2 for Mac.

Damn! Your right...all we xbox people get is Halo 3, while you're still on Halo 2. You totally have the advantage. PC-1 Xbox-0. O well... I guess we'll have to make due.

Thats why you dont buy a mac if you want to game...its too much of a pain in the arse.

"Once the custom community gets cracking we're sure we'll see some pretty awesome material. There'll be a bunch of maps that look beautiful but aren't too well-designed, there'll be maps that are well-designed but not very pretty and then there'll be the maps that strike the perfect balance and rise above the rest to become as much a staple of the Halo 2 Vista community as the maps that shipped with the game. With any luck."

Best feature right there.
