Heyyo,

Does anyone have a direct quote to Bungie saying they'd fix this as someone else mentioned?
Regarding the Xbox version, the only quote I heard was that it would not be fixed because it would create more problems. The Xbox and Vista are not THAT different that Vista would magically not have the same problems.
I don't think there's a direct quote... the closest thing is..
How does Halo 2 for Windows Vista cope with cheating, aimbots, and so on?
Cheating is a big concern for us, especially in online play, just as it is for any online game regardless of platform. Windows Vista and Live include several features intended to prevent cheating in online games, and players who need an extra degree of certainty can control their own community using Dedicated Servers or Live Friends lists. Even so, there will always be those who work around these measures and make it impossible to eliminate cheating completely. We’re doing all we can to make sure that online play is fun for the majority of honest H2V players.
so pretty much vague info... the not being fixed on Halo2Xbox was probably because Bungie's focusing on Halo3 as told by MS, and they aren't going to outsource an already couple years old xbox game to another company cause it's not cost efficient.
My guess though, is the button combos won't be in H2V since in order for H2 to be on windows they have to rebuild the engine like gearbox did. So unless the company who's working with Bungie (Hitman studios was it?) is creating it so the button combos will stay, they probably won't make an appearance.
