Got Broadband and just played Halo 2 online for the first time- Pethatic

Ive found it horrible, I hear Bungie wanting to keep halo 3 as fun as Halo 2 online, I dont see the fun in halo 2 online, Ive just started to dabble into online gaming and have a decent collection of online shooter games, Geow, R6 Vegas, Cod 2 and Cod3, Fear, Graw and Rfom and a few others like Pdz. Prey, Quake 4.

For me Cod3 and Rfom are pure fun and trump all the other games, Easy to pick up and play but requires you have more skill to be above average, Both those games to me have very smooth controls and most importantly both have a sprint button.

Geow- I dont like the 3rd person view and i feel it restricts the map size which limits the player count so to me its a negative, Id rather have the option to play on bigger maps with maybe the wepons made a bit more accurate just so the bigger maps arnt at a dissavantage, But i admit it can be fun though but i think its lacking in modes, its a no brainer to buy and i think with time and effort you can slowly get better, I dont think its a game that if you have quick reflexes and good aming you will start pawning your opponents from the get go.

R6 Vegas- Its realistic and has great depth to it, Its close quaters action and some people like that but i dont although i havnt really touched the online, I havnt even finished the Sp yet either- almost, I havd had some lag which is why i havnt got into it but from what ive played i wouldnt call it easy fun.

Fear- Havnt played online

Prey- Couldnt find a game online

Quake 4- Havnt played online

Graw- Played one match, Didnt know what was going so quit

Pdz- Same as review as Halo 2 review

Halo 2 - The map is so sparse, You cant hide in anything properly and most importantly you cant sprint, The wepons are horrible imo for online, The energy shield just lasts to long when being shot or shooting, Id like to find a player and shoot him in the body for a max of 2-3 seconds with a medium entry gun and i dont see why you cant to do that, Headshots should be made as kills except for the sniper when you shoot them for a full second because of the armour helmet, Tossing of the granades feels horrible and it feels like a weak kid is throwing it, The modes should be named standard like deathmatch and team deathmatch and what not, I dont like the controls, Their to loose when aiming and you only can adjust how fast the aiming circle is moved in a circle- This was all imo and if anyone wants to give me a few pointers how to play better then do so.

Cod3- Now this is fun, The maps are great everything elese about it is also great, Its the total opposite of halo 2 imo, I can get my rifle and a few quick shots ive got a kill, Cod3 requires stop and pop shooting and once you find a few players you skill comes into how well you do, You find them first they will probaly die first depending hoe fast you can hit the trigger multi times and how fast you can aim and find the next enemy and take sevaral people out, In Cod3 you have trees to hide behind but in Halo 2 it has nothing to hide behind of, The vehicles a fun to drive and mass counter attacks is really fun, The modes are awsome and just the whole milatary theme with proper people is cool.

Rfom- Man i love this game, Its fast paced the controls are smooth and the maps are the some of the best ive seen, I love the rankings system, The shot time death is perfect, The modes are extensve and lots of options to boot, theirs no lag the graphics are of the same quality as the Sp, 40 player matches also, 2 diffrent species, Human or chimera which have their own strengths, I cant think of anymore but i am having a blast with it.

Summary

I love Cod3 and Rfom and i fail to see how Halo 2 is hailed as the best console shooter, Its one of the worst experiences i had with a video game, Although ill be getting Halo 3 for its single player ill still try the multi although if i dont like im sure their will be other top qualtiy online fps shooters on other consoles if not ill be buying a gaming pc.

Ill be taking back Halo 2 and getting my $15us back.

4 billion matches played disagrees.

lol@ pethaticbraydee1234

I respect your opinion, bud, but you are in the vast minority in not liking Halo 2.  Halo and Halo 2 are two of the finest FPS's ever created (check gamerankings.com).

 I tend to agree with the general consensus on this one.  Halo and Halo 2 have an awesome story along with great weapons, great multiplayer, great controls, and good graphics and sound.  Halo 2 over Live is just amazing....so much fun.  I can't wait for Halo 3!

Just cause you suck at it stop trying to compare halo to othere games halo its own game. gamer4life85

Well Halo can stay its own game as far as im concerned its pure trash, Wheres the fun and how can i suck when i just started, ive found im pretty good at most online shooters but for god sake Halo 2 hasnt even got a sprint button and why o why when i move forward i get jerked back to where i was over and over in the blink of an eye.

[QUOTE="braydee1234"]lol@ pethatichunters0

You do know that i did that so more people would come in.

There is more to Halo's multiplayer then most people give it credit for, its not your normal FPS online. You also must be good to have any real fun.

I think they shoud make you genaral of army, Ok men run around in the open and hope not to get killed, But really ive got fast reflexes my aiming is good and i can hit the trigger quickly, Can i shoot at the body or is that not good enough, Btw i got more kills then deaths so i dont think i got owned to bad, The wepons are way of?, Watch a movie because usually a couple of shots and they have killed someone already and ususlly guns  dont have to be used close up, Yes the sniper is weird but is only a minor problem.

i cant take anyone seriously if u think COD & R:FoM are better then halo, gears, and rainbowsix.OpticalCanine

 Who said i said Cod3% Rfom are better than Gears and Rainbow six, I might of said those games are not my personal prefrence in online shooters but i also said i can understand people having alot of fun with them, I like to get into gears a bit more ive gotten alot better at it since i found out you can aim in close quater combat but i have had trouble with r6 due to lag but i think my connection is better now ill give it another try though, But i still dont know what so great about Halo2 online.

Savo161savage161

You're judging all that off of 9 games? You're still a lvl 1! Just because you are horrible doesn't mean the game is horrible.

[QUOTE="savage161"]Savo161Bansheesdie

You're judging all that off of 9 games? You're still a lvl 1! Just because you are horrible doesn't mean the game is horrible.

I would assume if im pretty good at other shooters why arnt i good at Halo 2, Do i have to aim for the head and the head only dont i use the machine gun with the scope on it for close combat, What is it?, Explain to me what i have to do to get the quickest kill without mele and grenades.

While I respect your opinion, IMO you played a few games, got wasted (which it sounds like you aren't used to in FPS), and decided "Oh, I can't suck, it must be the game."  Seriously.  Besides, how can you say PDZ is the same as Halo 2, they play nothing like eachother.

On the plus side, at least you added 9 games to the over 4 billion already played 8)

Well, you could dual wield two SMGs and just shoot them until they die, or dual wield SMG/Plasma Rifle, or just use the Battle Rifle and shoot them in the head, or just use one or two pistols to shoot them in the head, or use the plasma pistol and battle rifle combo (Noob Combo).  Thats all the advice I'll give you, I'm not going to list the dozens of ways to kill someone in that game.

[QUOTE="hunters0"][QUOTE="braydee1234"]lol@ pethaticsavage161

You do know that i did that so more people would come in.

 Sure you did buddy.

But anyways, Halo 2 has some of the best online ever. The maps are top-notch, the guns are fun to use, and the game is just plain fun to play. I really don't care if you miss out on Halo 3. I'll be enjoying myself too much to give a damn.

Golden rule of Halo is get a BR. If you don't have a BR then you are in a rut, a very deep rut. If you don't want any tips of nades or melees then I just say go for the BR. Remeber this though, you can't win at Halo if you don't melee or use nades.

So basicaly Halo 2 is all about dual wilding and headshots, What if i want to rip their heart out, Id bet they would still be alive.

Basically i just checked this guys profile and he got owned BADLY. No offense, you really dont have much of a right to make an opinion on Halo 2 right now because you havent tasted what it really. The essence of the game is learning the maps, rather than getting better with one weapon. Its very rock paper scissors, unlike RFOM where you can grab the carbine and own anybody.

Seriously dude, this topic is 'pathetic'

Dual wielding is overrated, nades and BR is the way to go. And sniper when you get really good at it.

Yep ownage confirmed, you suck really badly, you havent even completed a SINGLE game, the most kills you ever got was 6 and you still finished 7th! On top of that the game wasnt even ranked and yes not finised. Seriously, play it more before you try acting like an expert

9 games and he got pwned in them all:lol:

Seriously, if you want a well mannered discussion to why you dont like it so far then fine. But if you are playing on stereotypes and acting like smart Alec, then you have no standing whatsoever for somebody who hasnt even played it (yes thats how i class you). But seriously, some constructive criticisms have been nice but you are writing it off with less than a FEW MINUTESof gameplay. This is a fantastic game with fantastic maps, its shame the playlists are quite bad, some maps i ve NEVER played online, and its shame, because some of them i really love to play with my friends.

If you want, i can arrange a game with you where ill teach you the ropes of the game and improve how you play as give you insight on all the maps and strategies, seriously, this is an offer, but if you want to carry on acting like you are a 1337 FPSerz then youre only going to get laughed at.

Ive found it horrible, I hear Bungie wanting to keep halo 3 as fun as Halo 2 online, I dont see the fun in halo 2 online, Ive just started to dabble into online gaming and have a decent collection of online shooter games, Geow, R6 Vegas, Cod 2 and Cod3, Fear, Graw and Rfom and a few others like Pdz. Prey, Quake 4.

For me Cod3 and Rfom are pure fun and trump all the other games, Easy to pick up and play but requires you have more skill to be above average, Both those games to me have very smooth controls and most importantly both have a sprint button.

Geow- I dont like the 3rd person view and i feel it restricts the map size which limits the player count so to me its a negative, Id rather have the option to play on bigger maps with maybe the wepons made a bit more accurate just so the bigger maps arnt at a dissavantage, But i admit it can be fun though but i think its lacking in modes, its a no brainer to buy and i think with time and effort you can slowly get better, I dont think its a game that if you have quick reflexes and good aming you will start pawning your opponents from the get go.

R6 Vegas- Its realistic and has great depth to it, Its close quaters action and some people like that but i dont although i havnt really touched the online, I havnt even finished the Sp yet either- almost, I havd had some lag which is why i havnt got into it but from what ive played i wouldnt call it easy fun.

Halo 2 - The map is so sparse, You cant hide in anything properly and most importantly you cant sprint, The wepons are horrible imo for online, The energy shield just lasts to long when being shot or shooting, Id like to find a player and shoot him in the body for a max of 2-3 seconds with a medium entry gun and i dont see why you cant to do that, Headshots should be made as kills except for the sniper when you shoot them for a full second because of the armour helmet, Tossing of the granades feels horrible and it feels like a weak kid is throwing it, The modes should be named standard like deathmatch and team deathmatch and what not, I dont like the controls, Their to loose when aiming and you only can adjust how fast the aiming circle is moved in a circle- This was all imo and if anyone wants to give me a few pointers how to play better then do so.

Rfom- Man i love this game, Its fast paced the controls are smooth and the maps are the some of the best ive seen, I love the rankings system, The shot time death is perfect, The modes are extensve and lots of options to boot, theirs no lag the graphics are of the same quality as the Sp, 40 player matches also, 2 diffrent species, Human or chimera which have their own strengths, I cant think of anymore but i am having a blast with it.

Why are you compairing next gen games to a last gen game?  Halo 2 for its time had the best Online system out for a console, so when they say they hope to be as good as Halo 2 they mean be the best online on a console at that time so they are gonna improve and make it better than all those games you mentioned.

Oemenia

But what really pathetic is the fact that Ms centers is self around one game and yet alot of people wont want to play it, Now i know why the xbox sold only 24 million and i also know why the 360 atm is having a hard time boosting its numbers.

But the Pathetic thing about this thread is that i no way i said halo 2 was bad i just felt imo it was bad, I would of thought that most people would of tried to suggest the reasons why i felt that way.
