BeckoningZebra1 Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Bungie is set to update Halo PC and Halo Custom Edition so that it's online multiplayer support will continue following Gamespy's closing. Bungie has announced that developer Roger Wolfsen, along with a small group of fans, have been working to keep Halo PC online following Gamespy's shutdown. "A small group has been quietly preparing for the shutdown of the GameSpy Master Server (which provides the list of Halo servers) and they are finally ready to discuss their work. The group consists of Roger Wolfson aka Sawnose (of Bungie), Btcc22 (of HAC2), Kornman00 (of OpenSauce) and myself, Technut (of PÕQ Clan). As a result of their work, especially Btcc22 and Roger, Bungie will be releasing version 1.0.10 of Halo PC and Halo CE soon, which will include the fix for the Lobby!" The update will ensure steady, reliable servers for Halo PC players to continue playing online multiplayer. Bungie will be releasing this update soon. What do you think of this news?

Screech Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 What do I think? This is AWESOME news!!! There's obviously no money to be made off Halo PC / Custom Edition any more so it's amazing that they would assemble a team to make sure the game lives on You can tell they really care about the community. Now, how will we go about obtaining this update? I got the game for free through HaloMaps.org, like many others who play Custom Edition... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardent Prayer Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) Thank God. I enjoy Halo PC too much to get it to shut down. I find it great that Bungie is taking steps to keep one of the most fun games around. Edited May 18, 2014 by Ardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
