Halo2 Rocks On Kai
« on: November 10, 2004, 04:03:00 PM »

WOW, I have played halo 1 on kai a few times and it was fun but I just found it to lag way to much. I just tried halo 2 on kai and I was blown away at how smooth it is.  True there is a little lag from time to time but it's pretty impressive stuff.

Then you will like halo 2 on xbc because there are like 10x as many people on there.

xbox live is nice because of more people, but kai is so much faster to get in a game.  Live has the bonus of content download though. I have both so i can experience both

Live? Waiting 10 minutes to find a game and play for 2 minutes? No thanks.
XBC? Sit all day at the PC trying to join games? Don't give me this neXBC rubbish - nobody's even using it and from all I've heard, its performance is half assed compared to Kai.

So what if Live has 102304892082904 players online? It takes me on average 4 - 5 minutes to find 7 players. Takes me 30 seconds to run Kai, log in, and jump into the Halo 2 arena. Go figure..

Just so you know.. it's getting a lot better now. Updates are coming out, and matchmaking is running faster.

And BTW, only XBL supports online stats. It's an amazing system that Bungie has done, and your jaw just drops at the amount of information for your prior match in just mere minutes already online.

I can almost guarantee you're not paying for your video games. You should have lots of money to pay for Live. Oh wait...you actually have to buy games to play them on live.

Holy crap!  Look at all the trollers in this thread!


Last time I checked I was in the Xlink Kai forum, not the XBL or the XBC forums.  Funny that.






Halo 2 is great on Kai.

Props to the Kai team for making it easy for us to play online with lots of people AND NOT GET BANNED FROM XBL!!!  


fools.

Not really. You can have a 2 month trial subscription, and then sign up for $6 a month.

Not trolling. Someone said Halo 2 matchmaking can run slow, but with recent upgrades and patches, it's being fixed. So, I am correcting a false statement.

Yes really, do the math yourself, no matter how you make it out $6*12=$50 like the person stated, yes you can get 2 month trials but that is a different question alltogether.
And myabe $50 is a lot to people, just because you don't think it is doesn't mean other people don't.

Actually you are not correcting a false statement at all, someone saying halo 2 matchmaking can run slow is not false, under your interpretation it may be, however it's like asking how long is a piece of string. IMO Live is still slow, and in yours it's not.

It just annoys me when people rip on Xbox Live, when they haven't even played it, and they are too fucken cheap for $6 bucks a month.
