Do you guys think i hate halo? Nah, i love it! Its just got some annoying flaws...

About the bots, im talking about offline multiplayer bots, when you play with your friend or alone. And im not sure what you guys are playing, but you CHOOSE how good the bot is. You can make him miss every shot, or snipe you out with a pistol on most games.

On my games, if the bots are to easy, jack it up to hard or 5 star and have some fun! happy.gif

Halo 2 is considered a disapointment after all the hype it received. First was the "Defend Earth" theme that was going on, everyone loved it. Even the demo trailer was about that. Plus it just seemed rushed (although they've had a couple of years). The missions weren't that great compared to Halo 1.

Key concepts they missed

-Bots
-New types of weapons, not ones that were in halo 1 and just can be used. There were only a couple of new types.
-ATV and other new vehicles. Plus I remember reading a article that said they were gonna use the Scorpian Tank more often than in halo 1. Doesn't seem like it.
-Multiple warthogs
-New covenant vehicles (I believe there was only 1) and secondary fire for the wraith available for the players
-More types of covenant soilders (besides brutes)
-More maps. Include the ones in halo 1 as well.
-More gun turret usage
-multiple fire modes for each gun (Automatic fire for the Battle rifle, and a burst fire for the needler or something like that)

Overall they did a good job, but halo 2 was all about the amazing graphics they were gonna come up with, and that's probably the reason why they skipped so much key stuff. In fact, I'd prefer the halo 1 graphics as long as they improved gameplay

I agree.

And yes, they did say there was going to more Scrop Tank usin', they failed horribly with the hogs, only TWO, which they had renders for four, and even had a section on OXM contemplating wether they would be used or not... obviously they weren't cry.gif

And burst fire for dual needlers would be good but, one? If memory serves 7 = death, but burst fire is like 3 shots or so.

True,

Halo 2 fell horridly short to my standards, but I love it, not as much as my beloved Halo, but it still has its place.

And,
Theres always Halo 3 to look for... as long as they don't censored.gif that one too.

But,
I think the main thing was, Bungie made a ton of maps, and then someone thought, well instead of having the Covenant pound Earth, have a PROPHET jump blindly into space, I mean why would a Covenant cruiser jump blindly? They pwn in slipspace, this was a flaw in the storyline. They could have just jumped to High Charity.

Instead,
We find ourselves on another damned Halo.

yeah. No one wanted to fight the flood again either (they were more annoying than cool)

Everyone wanted to see upgraded Covenant vs upgraded Humans with each side having better and more variety of weapons and vehicles and have them duke it out on Earth. I just don't understand why Bungie didn't do just that

Holy crap pal, you still don't get it. I never said you can't play with friends. All I'm saying is if you are playing multiplayer WITH A FRIEND, you can choose to play without bots if you whine so much. It's funny how that gets warped into this situation where I have no friends. confused.gif
