1. random crashes which crashes the whole compter-

i get crash (tempory not responding, prement not responding (need to restart) and computer crash. thats the common types) when:

doing new game too many times in a short time (prement not responding)
entering halo more then 1 time without restarting (computer crash)
saving a campian game and not going out of menu in a short time (prement not responding)
random tempory not responding which sometimes leads into computer crash
not reponding and crash rarly happens while playing games
exception data when shooting in a heavy vehicle rapidly and sometimes also respawn system crash

ive also got a very strange bug which, for some reason, didnt gave an error in event viewer.

*starts game* *select multiplayer internet to play a game* *checking for updates...* then it started: *black screen* *minisizes* *maxsizes* *returns from black screen* *not responding* *black screen* *minisizes* *close* i didnt get what just happened...

no one cant enter my game. tested 3 times with other players. i cant even enter my own server after i leave it. instead it retrys for nothing. also, sometimes i cant play in any server that uses random map that i have, but it tempory but one time it even happened to bloodgulch which i think its quite serious..

i also get random bug which i lost connection, then give the error "the game has closed down". i check server list, then i see the server i played on still up, i try to enter it, but instead i get the error "unable to join game" and also every server that plays the same map. the only choice is to restart.

i also get strange bugs when playing with other players in a map with ai.

some of the ai do nothing and also cannot be killed, but still can be moved around.
sometimes near the ai that do none i suddenly get attacked by invisible monsters that i cant even hit them.
one time i saw some ai attacking a random spot which had none there (all the ai was in the same team) i was able to damage them but they was unable to damage me.

still waiting for someone who will actually post instead of just view, even just post "i dont know how to fix it."

Maps with AI problem: Firstly, I laughed at the way you described it.

The reason you get bipeds that do nothing (and the 'invisible monsters that attack you', haha) is because the things that the AI are doing do not synchronize over the netcode. In other words, YOU may not see that invisible monster, but someone else does. Regardless, it still exists, and it has the ability to kill the crap out of you, even if according to your computer, it doesn't exist.

The inverse is also true. You may see an AI, but some of the other players may not.

thanx, but what with the 3rd ai problem of the ai attacking a random spot?

That could be a variety of different things. It could be that the AI sees something that you don't see. I would think that they probably notice the AI that you don't see due to the AI not synchronizing. Dennis might know the answer to this.

It could also be that they're programmed to be incredibly stupid. I have a group of stupid AI that discharge their entire magazine upon even hearing a shot or grenade (and they're usually aiming at each other, so it's an unintentional bloodbath). Surprisingly, it's easier for them to kill each other than it is to shoot me. They have no aim either.
