  • Franky keeps Waahmbulancing all cheaters and modders, and bla bla bla... Even if I do, in fact, like to mock cheaters, I was wondering if you were actually wrong sometimes. No, wait, Bungie is never wrong, but does it happen you unban accounts because someone has good arguments concerning his account or he has actually done something that shouldn't have got him banned and was?

  • Halo 2 is getting out of hand, players are cheating way too often and ruining the game. I was a level 30 before we started to play. After playing games i dropped down to a 27 in team slayer because we played against players who cheated by standbying. I have sent feadback on everyone who has cheated but for some reason nothing ever happens. What i don't understand is why people cheat, can they not win a fair game? Instead they have to cheat to make them selves look good by having a higher rank. If cheaters have such a high level i would like to see them prove it by playing a game without cheating. Can we PLEASE STOP CHEATING and play by the rules which were placed for a reason.

  • posted by Frankie in the weekly update "When the single player guys file out (or as is often the case, stay put) then the multiplayer sessions begin in earnest. We were trying out a new multiplayer game type - and it is super fun, yet utterly terrifying at the same time. I have never, ever heard so much frightened screaming during a play test of anything. And plenty of laughing too" I hope It's "falling" is what everyone is "frightened" and screaming" about, and getting hurt from that fall is what's so "terrifying" to you....... fall damage and a health system would be so sweet to have in the game again..... you know... think alil harder before you act.....not so much "cowboying" going on ya know. It made you feel more Human than Cyborg( and in Halo 2, you said he was supposed to become more Human although the game released with him being more Cyborg or robotic. He's part Human and that means he should feel hurt and be able to get hurt. Not so Undestructable.we already Know he has a conscious, thats Obvious... so shouldnt he have to be able to "bleed" as well?).... not so unstoppable...yet alittle more talented and certainly added a "second guess" before Battling it out with someone with Full Health when you have 1 red Bar of health left and the "Thump, Thump" of your Heartbeat to distract and remind you what you were about to get into( if you get so much as farted on, you're dead at that point). It also caused more usage of the Multiplayer Maps...... I felt the Maps in Halo 2 to be more confined to certain battle areas because of this. I would really love to see that the MC is acxtually still Human and can get Hurt....then needing medical attention.... it made me feel as if I were him, and not just a robot who could get blasted by 4 players and run around the corner and hide with no Consequences but a couple seconds on a shield recharge. I hope the laughing was whatching a player fall to his death or his near death. Maybe some more perriless catwalking and precise jumping, or your done, or depending on the fall, almost done. this is missed dearly from Halo: Combat Evolved when you would walk around "scared or Terrified". It added more drama in my opinion. about the mister chief? "And finally, here's a sneak peek at what will end up being the greatest Mister Chief of all times. This is just a corner. More will be revealed in July." I'm so hoping I'm on target with the July Rumors from IGN... like i said, I won't tell the message I sent Frank reguarding certain updates for a particular game... I'm hoping Frank can respond and let me know if I'm atleast close...probably not... but the rumors are definately there, and they are From IGN. any word on my guess Frank? ..... Please respond.

  • Thank you for banning these cheaters. The chatter on the site is that reporting them does not result in their being banned. I believe that super jumpers should also be included in the cheating classification because it creates an unfair advantage.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] FluKy man thats unlucky. i never had that happen to me. bungie actually checks if you did something wrong before banning i thought. atleast it wouldnt be permanant[/quote] Flukey, I have not been Banned yet for negative feedback, I never said I was.(but i know someone who was) All I'm saying is that it will build up and is very possible to get a ban from it. And yes, It is reviewed (supposadly) before you get Banned. Bungie says " the feedback system is the most effective way to report someone,and it works". I just don't like to see these kids get in the spotlight all the time on Bungie.net. they get way too much attention and then made famous on Bungies website...and that's what these kids want. I don't see Bungie Posting my collection of Over 50 halo figures, including Lightable Cortana (only 2,000 made) and Active Cammo MC with Sniper and AR (only 5,000 Made) and an almost Finished Classic Scale Model of "Blood Gulch" with all the weapons vehicles....etc. on the map using many of the Opened Vehicles and Action Figures (mostly the small figures) It's hard to believe, but The Model is Scaled to fit these Figures and when It's done, I plan to post it On the web. this is extremely hard to do and has taken an awefull long time. I guess sometimes It's depressing to see that Bungie is banning players, yet they Cannot stop it, and then make these kids Famous. I know their names are held back for obvious reasons, but these kids are very much aware of what they wrote Bungie and when they get their letter posted on the front page, i think It's like opening a can of worms if ya know what I mean. Once again, thanks for your concern. BtW- I want to point out that I consider Quitting the most Unsportsmanship like conduct, next to cheating. I think Bungie has expressed this also. It breaks my heart everytime I quit a game, and for this I appoligize, but I will not allow these kids to have their fun at my expense. No matter what the consequences are. [Edited on 7/5/2006]

  • Um...I really don't know. I just thought that if you we're modding or doing wierd stuff with connections like bridging or standbying and people reported you enough times that Bungie would monitor your games that you play so they would see if you're cheating or not. But maybe Bungie changed their way on how they ban people. Honestly, I really don't know though. P.S. I think Bungie should come out with another set of maps for Halo 2 before Halo 3 comes out. That would be cool. :-)

  • Can Bungie Detect Bridgers? Cuz I love reading Waaaaambulance E-mails and some say they didnt know they were cheating or they mate did it. but i never read anything saying about i never bridged, The player in my party did or i got matched up with bridgers why did you bann me. So can Bungie Acctually detect them?

  • Hello Frankie, my name is Barrett Hamilton and i'm a student at ICP Technical Institute and i work as a complaint consultant for the college ( its like a minijob) i have two Xbox Live Accounts and i check halo2 for modders and report feedback. Modders are wrong for cheating, but that doesnt mean you can mock them when they complain about being banned. If you seriously want them to learn their lesson you should be nicer when you reply to their complaints. Mean and rude replies tell players that you are not considerate in any way and theres a chance that they'll mod or cheat again just to make you guys angry. Please promote sincere and kind replies to those who posted bulletins that are kind and short to the point. This way we can all see a better working future. Thank you for your time.

  • The wahhhhhmbulance was nice, wasn't too keen on the all caps guy... if they cheat, they should pay "through the nose" for it.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] FluKy you dont automatically get negative feedback from quitting. i think the person has to select you and say i dont like you anymore kind of thing. its just not possible to be banned automatically with no person sending you feedback from quitting, just the system[/quote] Thats correct, you don't get negative feedback automatically, i never said you did. please go back and read what i posted. If I'm in a game and getting cheated on, I say " hey guys... stop cheating or we will quit and noone plays". then the cheaters say...."go ahead we will just report you for quitting!" .......... like i said i may not have wrote this quote in my post, but i did mention that i get quitting feedback when i quit against cheaters... i never said it was "automatically done". thanks for your concern, however i am aware of how the feedback system works. are you? and i never said you get negative feedback automatically, i said you get banned automatically when the negative feedback builds up. if you read my post, you will see that I said "the cheaters then report me for quitting"....... please read the full post, thats all i ask.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] silverknight598 Dude, thats perty funny that you can get flanked by Grunts. (P.S. My first post!!!)[/quote] yea, it reminds me of playing Halo:Combat Evolved. One level that comes to mind is well actually level 2 Called "Halo". I remember getting flanked traped and slaughtered by all kinds of Covenant(on all levels)"Halo" is just a perfect example... if you ran , they followed and found you!). I want that feeling of the Covenant on my ars again. What an experience. Things like this didn't happen in the second game, thats why i was wondering what happened to the AI? It actually seemed less advanced in Halo 2 Than it did in Halo: Combat Evolved. But those are just my experiences. Halo 2 the enemies just seemed stronger and more plentifull, but not really chasing after you(or even attacking with any sort of plan or "AI" like they were in Halo:Combat Evolved. I guess the story line could have helped this style of single player gameplay in Halo 2, but i really missed it in the second game. I really hope things like Frankie says, are gonna happen in Halo 3. Take the first Structure you come to on that level on legendary. If you play the game as it comes at you, and dont't hide and wait like the books tell you, this is one of the hardest and most intelligent parts of the game. If you stay with the Marines and try and save them like you are supposed to, either on the ground or in the structure, WOW!!!!!! theres flanking, surrounding, attacking, and alot of ships landing "with a plan" to take you down. I remember being completely down on health hearing the "Thump, Thump" of my Heartbeat to remind me i was nearly dead, Hiding behind a huge rock in the middle of the ground around the structure, listening to 2 elites "TALK TO EACHOTHER" in Alien tongues and then flanking me from both sides of the rock and there was nothing i could do.. I wonder what they were sayig to eachother. Iknow it had something to do with "HOW" they were going to take me out! This is what was missing from Halo 2 Campaign. Anyone else also notice how quickly you would get attacked again during a Reload of weaponry in the first game, It was like they could hear you removing the clip of the gun, and then sure enough, you hear the Elites talking (giving orders I'm sure of) and the getting attacked perfectly by the covenant during a Reload......... SURPRIZED??????????? OH YEA!!!!!!!!! [Edited on 7/4/2006]
