Actually, what doesn't appeal to them is the the gargantuan task of opening the console and typing map_name.

and they could also consider the fact that they still have halo pc installed :U. their campaign didnt go anywhere

Yeah thats what the point is its an epic game just a tiny community. heck most ppl on halo pc dont even know what CE is and if they do get it they delte it right away not knowing What the custom stands for thinking whats the diffrance between this and the regular.


Most people don't think of Halo CE as Halo Custom Edition. If you go onto Bungie.net for example when they abbreviate HCE they actually me Halo Combat Evolved. It's an honest mistake not to know if it's custom or not. The reason I knew what I was downloading was because I read up on it. Although that "Message of the day" that's been the same for 5 years still says "Want custom maps? Go to..." and yet people don't.

i just had a ground breaking idea: is it possible that many more than we think actually DO come to halo ce, get custom maps, but then find that there are no servers hosting them? im being serious right now. i really do think that its a possibility

or they did what i did before i knew about custom edition. i downloaded a map and put it in my halo combat evolved maps folder. then i figured out i need Custom Edition from a friend. so What we need to do s go to bungie and ask them to change the Banner by saying go to halompas.org for halo custom edition, custom maps, and accessories!

All I can say for sure is that the rate of map and game downloads has not slowed down and it still more than previous years.

Edit: Just printed a chart showing the download count. You can't count this month becasue it just started.

Heh. It took me a week or so to find the download on some other site. Then it took me 3 months to find out about halomaps.org.

So , the chart implies that there are 300,000 people out there with a map , but either see no servers hosting the maps , or dont know how to install them.
I think the latter is more probable , seeing nothing but people mostly playing regular maps , they decided to head back to Halo , Regular to have fun with the 16,000 people there.

When I first saw halo custom, I thought it was I halo 2 trial because It showed a map from halo 2

It took me 3 hours too. I was downloading it from a site that gets about 20 kb/s.
