Screw Halo For PC

So I got Halo a couple of months ago for my computer, and I am bored enough now, so I installed it, have been playing multiplayer, and it's the stupidest "PC game" I have ever played. It looks so sh!tty, yet runs like a hog, so I feel like I'm playing on some emulator here or something. I would take CS over Halo anyday :thumbsdown:
 
Yeah, I gave up on Halo after a few days because it ran like crap on my system. God, I hate console games "ported" over to the PC. :frown:
 
Damm, what are running?
Halo runs smooth as silk on my rig. and its a lot better than the console game
(except you cant play co-op) but it plays just as good if not better on my pc, and easyer to control with a keyboard and mouse if you ask me.
just MHO
 
BTW, it was a PC game ported to the console when bungie was bought buy Microsoft, then finally ported back and released to the PC after "bill" made enough of his XBOX game.
just a FYI

🙂
 
halo runs smooth for me too but is just a really bad game... go here... kill him... drive this... kill him.

After the reviews it sounded like this game opend up a new genrie (i know i spelt it wrong) of gaming. But i played it and it was a dumb first person shooter with sloppy controls for the vehicles.

It was kindal like they slapped system shock 2 and tribes 2 together... but it came out crappy
 
I have to agree that Halo for PC sucks. The graphics aren't great and the game runs only at a acceptable frame rate even with a 9800 Pro, 1024MB RAM, and a AXP 1833MHz. The levels and enemies are also very repetitive and makes gameplay a chore rather than fun.
 
I like the cool video that they made of the grenade experiments though. That was some awesome stuff! 😀 I didn't really try the game that much.......played the demo a bit...but stuck with stuff like UT games and other FPS's. If you haven't seen the warthog experiment.....you should google for it and try to download it. It's great!

So, one of your complaints is that Halo "looks so sh!tty", but you don't have the same complaint about CS?

Mmmmm-kay. :roll:

lol.
 
yea, I never understood why halo always got "10 stars" "Amazing graphics" blah blah. In my eyes, the graphics looked a little dated, or maybe I expected alot more.

Also remember that it was a PC game first, then recoded to xbox, then ported back to PC. If it would have stuck PC first, I think they would have done a better job. You are a bit limited with consoles.
 
Halo SP ran smooth-as on my PC, even notched up AA a bit 😕 never played MP though. Only got sluggish to any slightly troublesome extent on the ending run, and I'm VERY fussy. IIRC theres a setting similar to the moiuth smoothing in UT2004, I found turning it OFF removed the odd lag, whichas it turned out was controls lag (found same thing in UT2004).

I think I must have some uber directx and anti opengl rig or something, halo and ut2004 runs great, ET etc runs shiat 🙁 Halo was a good game imo, not GREAT like it was on xbox, but not crap either. What I get for getting an AMD and ATI I suppose, both of which are stronger in dx and weaker in opengl :/

sadly I play ET about 100x more than the other games 😱
