Halo 2 PC, Have some questions
« on: May 08, 2008, 07:49:37 PM »
I'm thinking about Buying Halo 2 for the PC, but I want to know some stuff

1) Is Multiplayer free like Halo:Combat Evolved

2) Are there any BFM servers in Halo 2

3) Do you need to aim ahead like in Halo to actually hit?

4) Do you think I should get Call Of Duty instead? :P

1. Multiplayer is free, you just have to set up a Windows Live account.

2. BFM does not have  any Halo 2 servers at this time.  It does not look like we will be getting one in the near future as well.

3. As far as I know, Halo 2 uses the same physics as Halo 1, jus tthe graphics are better and more detailed.

4. I have never played CoD, and I have never played Halo 2 multiplayer (because I can't connect to Windows Live for some reason), so I can't help you there.
You blame me?  Remember it had to get past 10 other players before I saw the ball.

Thanks to Spidey for this sig!                                                                                                                  .

Call of Duty 4 is by far the most superior game graphics-wise I have ever seen. BUT, you buy it for multiplayer, although the single player is excellent as well. The campaign is quite short. If you want to buy a game with an excellent campaign, you would be choosing Crysis.

1) I think you have to pay for the Windows Live account. Its like the Xbox live, but if you have one of those, you can use that.
2) No. As it doesn't support race.
3) Yes. Thats the basic physics of the world and the games, the amount you have to would depend on lag. In campaign, not so far.
4) If you have a good enough computer then yeah.
