Yes, but most of the people here didn’t play many FPS like you and I may have. Halo is easier for people to play, not just because it’s so simple, but because it also has easy access to lots of ‘competition’, if you want to call it that.
I hope Doom 3 does well in its Xbox port. One can only hope.
Hey man not everyone reads the manga… If you are going to reveal plotline thats after what ever episode is on the air… Please notify those that may not want to know that you have “Spoiler info”.
Talk to aggravate vegas aside, I got a bum clan to feed the 4 Horsemen, over at haloelite.com. We’ve been beatin em down for like 2 years now, mostly in Halo 1, but yet they refuse to believe they’re bums. So who better to destroy them then the Little Ponies?
I don’t give a shit what a shithole mac programmer set calls something, though it is nice that they had some 4 years to figure it out before it came out, and still fucked it up. I mean “I don’t play halo because I get tired of losing to 3 pistol shots.” > “Yall gotta man up dog, the pistol is the way!” which now is “sorry you can’t headshot 3 times to death.”
Biz, if you played a lot of FPS then youd know that three shots to the head is way to lenient, just look at games like counter strike where any head shot will kill you if you dont have a helmet (the 50 cal. Pistol will kill one shot with a helmet on) or any Tom Clancy game where 2 to 3 shots from almost any gun will kill regardless of where you get hit(for that matter any squad based or military style FPS), and dont get me started on the UT series and its line of Weapons of mass Destruction (Bush should have invaded Atari for that crap)look, I like Halo 1 and 2 but theyre two different games, Halo1 is more skill based while H2 is more like every other FPS (more kill friendly) and you cant blame them, their in it to make a buck after all, and they do it by keeping the field tight so people who cant play as good dont start saying well that game is trash because the plasma pistol/magnum combo is too strong your not going to hear that because there is too many ways for a person of lesser skill to get on in that game and thats fine because it sells for them why dont people who can play halo1 ever complain about the pistol? I shouldnt have to answer that, and Id like to meet this mythical person who keeps giving these people 3 shots to head EVEY SINGLE TIME they pull the trigger, people make it seem like thats an easy thing to do (most of the time its easier to get a one shot sniper kill than to land three straight shots consistently to the head in halo1) and if it is that easy then just do it oh shit, then they would be good
Technically, the Halo that came out was in development for 9 months. Halo 2 was in development for like a year and a half-Bungie are the kinds of dicking around, apparently.
The pistol was the way to go in halo, because it was a weapon that was good for every situation. There is no such gun in Halo 2. Getting the 3 shot kill every time was damn hard, but even so, the fact that it was a superior weapon in all but the most extreme situations was annoying. The big Halo 1 players don’t complain about the pistol, because you can set the game to have to start with it, so it’s essentially a level playing field-the better players will kill faster. What irritated me about people playing Halo 2 is that they automatically assume that because Bungie, in their clarence-like “wisdom”, decided every level should start you with an SMG or a plasma rifle, both of which, well, kinda suck, that therefore, the game is just a run to the best gun fest, which, indeed, is what Halo was if you set the game to start with default on most levels. Setting the weapon set to like, Carbine and smg, gets that same flavor from Halo 1, but you can’t play random people with that, and I think that’s the major complaint.
Counterstrike and Clancy’s games are meant to be more “realistic”, which is why 1 or 2 shots kill you dead. If you really wanted that, may as well play with no shields.
it’s called “brandon never checks the forums”.
And Chad and Ben, they’re dirty defectors that must be dealt with. Painfully.
Happy holidays to all the wizzards crew in this!!!

You talk this bullshit but your favorite weapon is a sniper rifle :tdown:
Anyone knows, in Halo 1 if you were sniping at me and you just happened to miss, that was yo ass if you were in pistol range… Now you have to use a Battle Rifle or that Alien Carbine bullshit, which requires 4-8 shots to kill someone, while the sniper on the other hand has to land 2 body shots or one head shot… which do you think is easier? If someone with a Halo 1 Pistol sees that sniper, they can kill him with 3-6 shots… that is fair and balanced…
And we’re not even gonna mention the easy ass head shots in that game, I get rediculous head shots everytime I play online, I know that wasn’t even possible on Halo 1, they made the range for head shots bigger so scrubs can snipe :tdown:
Duel Wield weapons are trash, this means if I just responded and I have one weapon, and you have a Pistol and a Plasma Rifle, everytime you see me you’re going to kill me… everytime… Thats unbalanced…
All the Human weapons have been watered down EXCEPT for the sniper rifle… Pistol takes 9 fuckin head shots to kill, AND it’s supposed to be a magnum now… realisticly, A magnum is about is strong enough to blow ya head off your shoulders… so this is fake… Like Luke said, most FPS games kill you in one shot, so this is bullshit… The rocket is so fuckin small you can barely hit someone with it, and its weakened a whole lot, someone with an overshield can take TWO rockets now and still live to tell about it… GARBAGE!! The Shotgun is the shitest piece of shit on the fuckin game, they might as well taken the shit off if they were gonna do that… now they got this glitchy ass trash ass fuckin sword that kills in one hit :lame:
Halo 2 has 7 sniper stages, this means on the majority of the stages if you do not have a sniper rifle you will not win… Coagulation, Ascension, Waterworks, Collusus, Burial Mounds, Zanzibar, and Headlong (Can’t remember)… and about 2 hand 2 hand stages… TRASH… Halo 1 there were 3… so on those stages if you don’t have the sniper rifle your team is gonna lose… period, what the fuck you gonna kill a sniper with a SMG? Thats why the Halo 1 pistol was needed, to administrate faggots who run all day…
The Online play is laggy, they use radars on ranked games… All the stages have vehicles for bums to hop in…
There’s an infinite amount of reasons for me to hate this game, Imma trade this shit in to see how much $$$ I can get off this bullshit :tdown:
I gotta take Robo his computer, but if someone wants to call and find out if there’s some xmas eve gaming going on before I get there, that’d be cool. That way I won’t have to make 2 trips.
Halo 2 is like 2004; a few things that were neat ideas that were executed poorly, and a bunch of gimmicks that don’t really add up to a great sequel experience.
