when you go to play online how much servers do you get? I get like 50 at max. Is it because of dial-up?

depends on the time of day..i get a couple hundred. do you have filters on?

No filters. But back about 6 mnths ago there was like 200. Its probably dial-up.

By the way do you like my first sig?

Or, are you running like a no-cd crack or something?

Those kinda "stop" the updating.

To tell the truth there was a time when I had a burned version but there was a patch so you couldn't play online. So I actually bought the game just to play online. Then I moved the Halo Program files to a different folder and now it doesn't think the game is installed but if you click the shortcut it plays.

After you download the manuel one how much are after that? Every time I go to play I have to download another one. Are all the updates the exact same size or does it keep downloading the same one. It says it updates the game and the window disapears and nothing happens. I that what its suspost to do?

actually the update does matter.

if you do not have it, you cannot see the servers made with it. if you do have it, you cannot see theo nes without it.

Oh man that kinda of sucks. One of my favorite servers is Talons Invisiaction. But it won't be there when I update. Too bad.

It could be firewall problems.

Thats True. do you think it could be service pack 2.

lanzo · Post by **lanzo** » Fri Feb 25, 2005 7:36 pm

it just finished downloading and it goes to update game right. SP2 pops up to make sure you want to run the update. I click run and it updates game I go to play online and theres another update. Should there be this many updates? Am I downloading the same one every time. All of them are the same exact size 4790000 bytes. Could it be because I moved all of the files that I had it originally installed to. Maybe its trying to update to the wrond directory.

I get well over 1000 servers when Im on.
