Halo 2 Playlist Update & Stat Reset

Tonight is the night for the long awaited Halo 2 Xbox Live Matchmaking Playlist update and ranking reset. Tombstone and Desolation will be required for some of the playlists and if you purchased them before Monday, 5/7, you will need to download them again before you can play online. Both maps will become free in early July. [url=/news/content.aspx?type=news&cid=12427] click for full story [/url]

  • This is really unbelievable. Tombstone is the worst map ever, I cannot believe you made me pay money for that for the 'privIlege' of playing ranked games after being stripped of any rank. Yeah, it's only a number and legit gamers can make it back up. What about those of us who have now WASTED 4000+ hours of our lives working on those ranks? I really do not feel like doing it all again, just because some dev geeks like to think of themselves as gods of their little world. And since you're 'enhancing' halo 2 still, why not make it like every other xbox live game so you can see the active sessions and choose which map/game type you want to join? Call of Duty is a much better xbox live offerring, for just that reason.I am sick of getting rifles on colossus and rapid assault on warlock. The good news it you saved me $60, because there is no way I am paying for Halo 3 now. At least now I have no problem leaving a ranked game as soon as some loser demonstrates that they have no skill beyond sitting in a corner and sniping the whole session. or noob combos. there's no longer any reason to care about rank, so community, get ready for me to ruin your chances of winning, by leaving games early. It's a shame, because this game had a lot of potential. having two million more users a year is not a good thing, it's just more idiots wasting my time with their nonsense, and ruining what used to be a fun concept. Congratulations on all your riches, you'll not get one more dime from me.

  • Thats a fair reason to be annoyed with bungie, but it cant be easy distributing a new set of maps across multiple platforms, there's always going to be issues. It's not like they've purposfully stolen your money though, i'm sure they're doing everything they can to resolve the problems. Would you rather they just halted development on new maps and updates once the game was released? At least they've put the time and effort into providing as many halo fans with new content and updates as possible. I hope we see more of the same with halo 3.

  • It is about damn time this happened, this is one of the best updates ever. The only thing bad is that they are making Rumble Pit and BTB Skirmish unranked I think that was a bad choice on the behalf of Bungie.

  • I don't mind the ranks being reset but BTB Skirmish was my favorite playlist but now its unranked. BTB was the best it should be ranked.

  • Once again I'm screwed over by Bungie not only did I have to pay for the maps twice now I have to wait for them to so called "process the issue and have them call me back." So I can get my money back. I don't care if it was $1 for the maps they are stealing from their users and thats wrong and there should be consequences. If we are promised things and they don't cough them up we should recived a full refund. Now we'll see how long it takes them to call me back.....which probably won't happen also maybe you guys should think about making an 800 number that goes directly to Bungie headquarters so we can actually get someone who knows what they are talking about I calle the support line and it was some guy that couldn't even speak english well and he didn't even know what halo2 was. sad isn't it I'm fed up I tell you and all of you punks that think I'm wrong for writing this screw off. "One good thing always leads to 5 bad things" this should be Bungie's motto.

  • Daaaamn, thats a lot of hate i've just read! To all the haters: I dont even know where to begin, if you read the bungie updates you will have seen all the reasoning behind the updates to the playlists and the rank reset. It's sound logic to be fair, the number of people playing halo on xbox live is slowly declining, so you reduce the number of playlists to keep them well populated so gamers get quicker games. Bungie spicing up the playlists is nothing new either, get used it and quit whining about it! They'l be another change in a couple of months no doubt. At the end of the day they're not messing with playlists to destroy small minded ignorant gamers lives, they're trying to benefit as many people as possible, and before you retort with messages about how many complaints there are on here, thats because most people are having a great time playing halo with the new update, rather than whinging on here about how bungies somehow personally screwed them! As if some of you are saying u want people fired over this! Grow up, get a life, and if it's really that bad, play something else! Anyways, the new maps are a great addition to matchmaking and the banhammer things always welcome, not too sure about the rankings reset but i'm sure it'l freshen up matchmaking for a while at least. Much appreciation to all the people at certain affinity and bungie :D

  • The maps will be free in July huh? May I kindly ask that you guys bump that up a few weeks at the least? Considering all the issues with it and all. As it stands, everyone that still can't download them will effectively be "banned" from Halo 2 for 2 months.

  • Why get rid of rumble pit ranked!!!! The only gametype I play, I can't believe it. Rumble training is totally useless. They better not pull this crap in H3. I have never had a problem getting into a rumble pit match. I just don't understand this, this sucks bad!!!!!!!!!!

  • Bungie you told us the problems with getting the maps had been fixed, could you please address these new issues? Why are we still having problems getting the new maps after we downloaded them the first time?

  • dang it... i definately would have waited 2 months for them to be free if they had told me this before. oh well, its only $4, and its for a good cause. I hope Certain Affinity made some nice cash from this little project to start on something awesome.

  • There is no reason to eliminate BTB Battle (ranked). There are many people who play this mode only. I would not be surprised to see your total games a day or online players drop since this update. Personally, I dont not mind resetting the stats, but I would not have changed the playist. You dont fix something that is not broken. [Edited on 05.10.2007 12:46 PM PDT]
