OMFG GFWL UPDATE!?!!?!?

[p0lar_bear]

The update was for Games for Windows - LIVE, which means it also affected Shadowrun, it is not a title specific update. We'll have more to say about a title update soon.

Well, I take that back, as that's comforting to hear that it wasn't a title update. Though I don't actually own the game, I try to pay attention to what's going on so I can help out as needed, and to see when some of the issues with the game are fixed. With all of the problems people hare having here, and with the problems I personally had playing Halo 2 on the XBox, I don't have much incentive to upgrade and go out and buy the game.

So...when can we expect a GFWL update that actually does something useful and RIDS ITSELF FROM THE GAME? :v

Oh shit, I just lost my crown to jcap.

Of course, they wouldn't go ahead and mandate a fix for any game-breaking bugs like multishotting, or that random invincibility glitch. Nah, let's just make sure that the bloated, useless LIVE service remains in top shape for the people who actually think it's a good service to force on PC users.

I talked to KP about that ages ago.
Point is, it's a port.
Xbox had button glitches too.

I didn't realize bandwagoning was more on par with a plague than a social movement on this forum. Christ.

MS is probably caught up to their eyeballs in dealing with the RROD issue with the xbox360 as a primary focus of resources, and just releasing this update for the purpose of saying "We are committed to the development and progression of games for windows live."

Holy shit do I feel smart.

That's not an excuse to neglect software and leave known bugs untouched, especially bugs that make half of the userbase bitch. You're either providing support, which means attempts at fixing reported bugs, or you're not, which you state as such.

I didn't realize having a personal opinion based on previous experiences with the title that just so happened to match up with the opinions of a few thousand others meant that I was "bandwagoning".

I agree with p0lar here, and I'm not hopping on the bandwagon either Veegie.

Interesting that you take a general observation as if I singled you out individually.
Those line breaks aren't put there out of spite.

Even if you weren't talking to me individually, you seemed to be making a comment regarding people who don't like Halo 2 Vista and GFWL, and I just so happen to be one of those people.

Line break or not, Veegie, I got the same impression as p0lar. You might want to read over your message and clarify before posting to avoid saying things you don't intend. Anyway, derailed much?
