why'd you play CE?

[Spartan000]

I started playing CE back in the era of casualty gorge

First map I downloaded? Castel 2 Castel.
First map I played online? Casualty Gorge.

Halo PC has about 2000 players online at any given time, whereas CE has around 40...

Wrong. PC has a pile of noobs that scream "AIMBOT AIMBOT OMFG AIMBOT U GAY FAG"

Wrong, ever wonder why most of the servers are locked?

And ce on average now has about 300 players.

I think hugeass was my first map. Just looked to hilarious. I started cause my brother discovered it one way or another when he started modding pc. I was blown the fuck away by the pelican and jets, and the rifle was just like "OMGWOW". Now I've discovered it's all quite boring stuff, but nothing compares to the feeling I had when I first discovered custom content.

1 in every 16 Halo players in PC are afk...

The lead in PC, augh I can't get used to it, even if I'm in a server that is in the same state as I am in.

hmm I beleive it was during the evening, and I was in halomods irc chat when I heard the much anticipated CE version of halo was just released on cortana.org, shortly after the HEK was also up for download.

I managed to download CE, but by the time I went to download the HEK the servers bandwidth was all being used up, so I had to wait like a day.

Then to go onto why I bought halo pc... After beating halo 1 I was hooked, I wanted more, I had played a couple of games with friends and family in split screen, but that wasn't enough.. then I found out about halo for pc, and at first I was really excited, but eventualy I forgot about it because it took quite some time to release. So I kind of just played more halo campaign and eventualy beat each level on every difficulty, and before I knew it there was a halo pc demo, which I quickly downloaded in order to play online with people in bloodgulch. A little later I bought the game.

Howd I start modding... I honestly can't remember exactly, I think I was trying to see if halo had cheat codes at all or could be edited at all. I googled and eventualy found some article on projectile swaps which weren't quite dead yet, but just about dieing out or losing popularity. So eager to make my assualt rifle fire rockets I quickly researched and found halomods.com. My first mod I released a video on was making a longsword drivable which wasn't a hard thing to do... although some people thought it was cool, because they had never seen it...

Halomods.com was fun back before when it was much smaller, and it kind of died out with the HEK and HaloCE mostly to the flood of new people coming in.

Thats my story... for PC and CE that is...

I even remember the first time I ever heard of halo and how I wound up getting an Xbox and then buying Halo.
