I forgot to mention it was SWAT with battle rifles.

You can die from a ricochet in SWAT. If you shoot a solid crate at point blank, you'll die.

I've killed myself loads in Noshi after shooting a wall.

If Bungie dont fix the modding issue which I imagine they cant, there has to be an old map's playlist for the people who dont want to play the new maps as that would stop the majority of cheating with only the superbounce to contend with.

Does anybody know what was happening here? A BTB on Waterworks, all our team were in the UK, and all were on red lines for the majority of the match while the other side were mostly on green. Lag was so bad that it was taking up to 60 seconds for us to respawn. At one point it was so bad that every single player on our team was dead at the same time as each other - coincidentally, while we were all sat staring at the connections screen, waiting for the game to catch up with the fact that none of us had respawned for over half a minute, the other team managed to get into our base, grab the flag and get it halfway back to their base.

They got their third flag capture without us even being aware that they'd grabbed it - there was nobody in sight as far as we could tell.

Standby? Something else? There's no way that it was just simple, everyday lag - I've never seen anything like that before.

Mmm, reason I'm asking is that the same happened to me before against french people. My team consisted of dutchies and britons, so you'd say that everyone was 'local' and the connections should've been top notch, but they were lagging it like Mr Ben.

Well, I've emailed the game stats link to the cheat report wotsit, so I suppose it might get looked into eventually. Hugely annoying, though - I think I was respawned and then killed at one point without even knowing about it. Had been sat looking at the connections screen for thirty seconds after being killed, then was faced with a totally black screen and suddenly heard the sound of somebody snuffing it.

There were also some weird deaths happening in the back of our base. It was all blocked up with crates, I was stood by them and then... urk. I die without there being a gunshot or an enemy nearby, then I see one of my team run over to where I died and cop it himself, then another.

It would have been funny if we hadn't just been put up against modders on Containment in the previous game. Patience is starting to wear a bit thin now.

Went into team preview solo the other day. Ended up on the same team as a modder. Seems they can effect the way everyone else in the game. my battle rifle fired like normal but killed in one shot and claimed itself to be a sniper.

Had one on Warlock and managed to kill the guy on my team modding a few times. He was hella pissed, booted me from the game when I did it too many times.

Came up against him on beaver creek a couple games later and pissed all over him. Was excellent fun.

Good. And then reported him, surely?

hmm, bungie and ms need to get their act together and start banning people from live althougehter, people with mod chips arn't really affecting other people, people fuckoing up the game for everyone else go unpunishefd, maybne occasionaly with a slap on the wrist.

Krypt and I did some double team last night and I've also done the odd bit of matchmaking in he last week or so and haven't seen any modding for a while :D

Maybe the novelty has worn off?

Nah, the modding's moved from Americans to British I'm sad to say :(

Have had a few games now where Brits are the ones doing the modding :unsure:

I'm really fed up with the lag in this game. Its a fucking disgrace. Bungie are knobs.

I really didn't think it was too bad before. Now I'm playing CS:S and UT2004 and the difference is amazing. Halo 2 seems like a painful lagfest half of the time now.

I've had no problems recently, what connections are you guys on?

Even matchmaking in the early hours is smooooooth with a capital smoo.

I was talking more generally of lag in Halo 2. I'm on a 1 meg connection with a DL rate of 100+Kbs and I get lag issues on Halo 2 every other game or so. Maybe I've just been unlucky with matchmaking recently

What's your upload speed though?

If you're on NTL then the upload speed will be 100Kb which is actually lower than it used to be.

I've got Pipex and it's knowhere near 100kb. It's 256 kps which I think in practice gives about 30 kbs.
