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.

A lot of the people who have posted already haven't played the new maps or playlist. I have played several games in BTB and no big gripe there. I tried SWAT and it was slayer but it was as if it was in Team Training. Shields, Sword, and Snipe on Lockout . There was NOTHING to do with SWAT except the the word on the playlist I entered. 1 out of 3 games seems to be a Team Training Game. Is that correct? Why did Bungie put it in SWAT? Would it be possible to fix that playlist as well as dimming the effectiveness of host. It seems that if host is decent, then that person will get 20-25 kills. On the other hand trying to kill him is NEARLY impossible. Before the reset, If a person playing SWAT was going against the host 2 out of 3 bullets had to hit him in the host in the head in order to kill him. After the reset 6 bullets have to hit him in the head. Factor in reaction time of the host and 1 or 2 rounds from him or her and there is no way to kill him cleanly unless 2 players fire at them simultaneously. Like I said NEARLY impossible. Thank you for reading. [Edited on 05.10.2007 11:00 PM PDT]
