So is there going to be Co Op (Campaign Mode) for halo2 PC? Gearbox just did what they were payed to do (and nothing extra) for Halo PC. Of course they could have made a Co Op play option for the campaign mode, but for some resaon did not deem it useful to allow PC gamers the same fun as the xbox gamers. Yes i understand that it is alot more difficult to synch 2 computers over LAN or WAN to play the identical Co Op features as the xbaox does on the one console. That doesnt mean that it shouldnt be done, or cannot be done. I just hope that when gearbox (or whoever) does the PC version for Halo2 they will not just leave the PC gamer out in the cold, barren world of non-Co Op campaign gameplay. I and other hardcore PC gamers dont own consoles, we own top of the line PC's or Mac's that cost well into the thousands of dollars. We own and operate Microsoft OS's to run these machines (maybe no the Mac guys). Does'nt anyone notice when we get left out in the cold ?? Personally i have been a gamer since i was old enough to hold a colleco-vision paddle, and have owned every console since then to the PS1, but in the face of non-updradable-out of function in 4 to 5 years-consoles. I have decided that PC gaming is the best choice. The pile of well used consoles still resides in my closet, in a box, un-used since i built my own killer gaming PC (64bit,gig of mem,5950ultra,audigy2 zs platinum pro /w 6.1THX). This is my choice of gaming machine. So why (if i am buying the same title at the same or higher price) dont i get the same options as the Xbox? Thank You Bungie for making such a great game, and please let there be Co Op campaign play for the upcoming Halo2 PC release

A true halo fan likes the game play. not the format or what graphics their are.

and as for online co-op in the PC version. Gearbox were suppost to release a patch that would let you play co-op for halo PC, but they soon scrapped it or they just havn't got around to it yet. I'm pretty sure that gearbox will put online co-op in Halo 2 PC. That's if gearbox does it next time ofcourse. But i wouldn't worry about it for at least another 3 years yet. It'll take that long before they make it for PC anyways.

Why do you feel you need to say that in this forum? There are some people in the world who don't care about the xbox version, but they care about the PC version. You could say they should go to hell, what's the point though you aren't even talking to them. Can't you just respect other's feelings? I recommend that you learn to treat others nicely because there will be more posts/threads like this.

Well I've never played the PC version, but no co-op stinks. We will have to see what bungie does. Hopefully they will grant your wish.

being the originator of this post i thank all that understand my pleas for a Halo PC patch for Co Op play or a promise from bungie( or gearbox) that Halo 2 will have it. as for the folks ( yet they shall stay unamed) who are damning me for being a hardcore PC gamer with a (super) computer system, I am sorry you feel that way, and when u realize that your antiquated console is next years closet item while My PC investment is still playing the newest (coolest) games. You may recall your FLAMING post to me. I do hope you understand that PC gamers are just console gamers that think outside the console box :)

Sheesh, nobody even bothered to answer the question.

The first problem is that there has been no announcement of any kind regarding a PC version of Halo 2. As such, it might not happen at all. Given that zero is known about a PC version, nothing can be said about what features it will have.

Oh, and Dragon X, no more posts like that. Got it? That was totally rude, wrong, and uncalled for. A real BUNGIE fan would know that Halo started as a PC game, and wouldn't even exist were it not for Marathon trilogy, Bungie's games for the Macintosh.

Thanks for Team Snipers Bungie.
Mythic Member, Legendary Member and back and forth. i just can't make up my mind!
Campaign - Halo C.E.>Halo 2>Halo 3
Multiplayer - Halo 2>Halo 3>Halo C.E.
Just about every thing I post is my opinion and nothing more. Be subjective. Respect other's opinions. Try to understand other's point of view.

We don't even know for sure there will be co-op in campaign mode in the xbox version.

BINGO

Everyone assumes theres gonna be a Halo 2 for PC. Why? Just cuz Halo 1 is out for PC. Halo Xbox was released November 2001, while Halo PC was released September 2003. Screw Halo 2 PC, cuz Halo 1 on the PC has ALOT of flaws in it.

I do hope you know that Halo 2 for PC may never be released. If it is expect it in '06, like halo took 2 years for PC, Halo 2 may even take longer. And people, come on now, I mean , why flame a person that doesn;t want to buy a console. He just wants to play PC games, which is cool. I mean there is little difference in Halo on PC to Xbox only that PC has flamer and fuel rod gun. Co-Op will have a patch by 12-04 , so expect to be playing co op then :)
