70-80% of the players in the servers i have visited do not speak english. Just to toss it out there. Most are extremely rude and obnoxious.
Eu não vejo o problema, a maioria de nós falar, pelo menos, uma outra língua além do inglês, certo?
we could always put the server messages in both english and spanish, some servers have it in up to five different languages. |

It was too hard when we were a big clan, now that we're smaller it will be even harder. I just don't think enough of us are all that interested in all that extra work. If were to move to another game because of halo fv dying out, I dont think it would be CE.

I know right. People are too lazy and ignorant to download Halo Custom Edition and custom maps for it.

YUH!

Lol, Lunk actually misspelled it. It's HACv2. Also if people are too lazy to customly download maps from Halomaps website and put them into their maps folder, then HACv2 would be the best option for them as it will automatically download that custom maps that the server is hosting on.

For those who have never played Halo Custom. Here is a sample of a custom map downloaded using what ODST posted to use. Very simple. HAC2 program. I would say it would be cool if ZA created a zombie server specifically with custom maps only. just to toss it out there.
Sample 1

Sample 2

Herc you cannot simply make a custom map only server and expect people to join it. You need to establish yourselves as a good zombie server so the regular players can download the certain maps to be played.
I already suggested pretty much the best idea to get people to download custom maps to play. Once you guys establish yourselves as a good server with the og maps, then start making public announcements in the server prior to adding certain new custom maps in.
Trust me I've played alot of custom edition and this shit always happens whenever a clan adds a custom map after a map like Bloodgulch & 3/4 of the server quits because of it.

Yeah your numbers for CE are stacked btw, reason why CE numbers are that high is because of SAPP (disables hash and version check and broadcasts on all versions). The so called player base might not actual own legit keys (eh 1.04 anyone).
SAPP Server List - http://xhalo.tk/serverlist/index.php
Plus disabling version check isn't hard nor is the broadcasting, but as soon as you disable hash check to GS Server. You will be more and likely be asking for trouble.

I'd rather have a server without version check and all version broadcasting than a server that is empty 6/7 days of the week lol

Well that's the problem, even enabling the no-version check and broadcast on all versions on halo. You still might not get the users you were expecting due to the hash check. |

So you can't do all version broadcasting and have hash check?
Epics classic server used to broadcast on all versions and was full 24/7 and their wasn't really any issues with players (I used to spend hours everyday in that server).
We do have enough admins though that even if we didnt have hash checking we could always have someone moderating the server.

You can do both, or one or the other. Thing is there is no sure way to measure the CE player base legitly due to the released client cracks and server edits that null out GS Hash check.
Thing is if you disable the hash-check, numerous holes will happen.
-Hash Based Banning becomes well basically pointless or you ban a bunch of people cause of one individual.
-IP Based Banning can only do so much, Halo Proxy?!?.
-Unique ID only works with a constant variable (Hash and IP mean really nothing so what constant are you going to use).
-Your scripts hash based variables well become more than one individual, or just one individual with multiple hashes( Cause you can't confirm if it is legit).

Regardless, Halo is more or less dead. I think ZA should seriously begin moving the servers to Custom Edition. Where there is a will there is a way. Effort and thought is the only process required to make it happen. |

Whenever I log on during night at around 8PM EST, 90% of the time shows no one is playing Halo in either Pro Stats or Classic Server. So that's when I decide to play other games such as League of Legends or CS:GO. No one even messages to invite others in Classic Server anymore like in the past on how I used to get spammed from members to join Classic..

Halo may be dying, but people can still get stats started. I don't see anyone xfire spam people to play stats. Just two weeks ago, i was playing stats, with 5 people. I xfire spammed everyone i had on xfire to come. CnR, CC, everyone. Within 5 mins we had a full server, and it stayed that way for the next 3 and a half hours. Anyone can get the servers going, if they rly want to...but no one seems to want to. Or maybe they just dont have the people on xfire. But it is possible to get stats started. Even on off days, i can get at least 3 off my xxfire list to play. It is possible to start stats up guys, we jst need to throw ourselfs into it !

Shawn I've told you before, the prostats scripts are for phasor on full version. They will not work on ce. So it is impossible to try this.
incorrect, the scripts need only minor conversions to support CE. stats would be the bitch |

I used to play CE for years. There are some maps like yoroyast island and coldsnap that a lot of people have, but are custom maps. Those 2 are my favorite maps.
I vote we convert
