Halo2 Multiplayer thread

I will have my Xbox hooked back up by the end of the night or much sooner.
So when are you guys playing usually now so i can hopefully get some matches in again.
I should be able to get on almost anytime friday.

5 - 10 my time during the week I am on and off. Kind of hit and miss.

Thats what 7-12 here.
Sounds like my time frame
It will be good to get back into the game a bit.
BW Tips and Tricks is on their second issue running Halo 2 tips and unfortunately all of the ideas we used i think are in there. I didn't read the article yet but based on he screenshots they had it looked like all the stuff we took the time to figure out. :-/
Flag bounce, the other people who would jump off with the ball, the spot on collosus for oddball there were 4 or 5 others too. I was actually dissapointed that they did their job well....

[captain_nintendo]

Well there goes the advantage over noobs
Oh well , as long as people dont use stand by then my team always has a chance to win

I figured anyone who cares is going to see it in here so rather than start a new thread.

When you put the Halo 2 Bonus DVD into your DVD player, it brings up the main screen. If you wait for the main screen to repeat a few times, a marine starts shouting at you to press the play button. Also, when you go to an option that brings you to another set of options, such as "bonus material," the marine shouts, "You did it!" This, however, only happens if you wait for him to yell at you on the main screen a few times.

It is talking about the DVD that came with the Halo 2: LCE. I have yet to even watch it so i am going to have to try this as soon as i can use the DVD player.

Cool I will have to give it a try.

I completely forgot about the bonus disk that came with that.  Time to watch!

Me too ! I think my Halo 2 has left the Xbox a couple of times and even then it was temporary and I put it in the Mechassualt case :-/

[Toilet > my N-gage]

[captain_nintendo]

Finally made it back upto a 15 in Big team battle after getting knocked down to a 13. Lost a bunch of games due to stand by and unfortunate events.

But soon I will be in the top 1000 players at big team battle.

How is that black eye of your doing Scott ?

I got a chance to play Halo2 online last night. I was ata buddies and he has an account. since he signed us in as guests we were limited to what we could play. I think the one we played was called rumble training. It was a bunch of annoying little kids making stupid comments. One of our guys did allright. He was at 23 kills when someone hit 25 to end the game. I only had one. it seemed like everytime I respawned there was someone directly behind me. it was brutal.

What are you talking about? Me killing you?

[Izret101]

Rumble Pit can be brutal Den.
What map did you play on?
I am going to guess Ascension.(It has a huge "satellite" like bowl in the midle of the map)
Also what level is your friend?
That will influence the level of the people you play against.
Playing a Level 9 or 10 (or higher) is totally different than playing against level 4 or 5s.
In some cases even 1 level of differance can be a huge change in the skill.

[den68]

we only did 2 maps. Beaver Creek and Midship. I don't know what level he is. We had to go in as guests so I'd guess that was lower level players. I guess the 2 times I'd played were not sufficient preparation. It was the first time I'd had more than 3 other people shooting at me.
