I will see if it will work today and I will post one on the weekend if no one does the times are so awkward since most people on this forum are in america.
heehee. chiron is the greatest esp with no sheids and shotties. those gametypes are the ones that make me scream in horror when all of a sudden an enemy pops out of a teleporter you are runnning towards. it happens so many times too. that map scares me and i like it.
LOL, I like your attitude.
When I played regularly it was mainly bloodgulch and danger canyon. I'm used to wide open spaces so I'm constantly screaming in horror with the maps we've been on.Yep, I figured you could protect the flag better than me running thru the wrong porter. "killing frenzy"?
(imagining myself dripping foam from mouth onto clenched mouse) Nah.The only time I've gotten mouse slow ups is in modded maps or serious lag. However, I have gotten weird mouse behavior before when using a mouse and a laptop. Are you using a wired or wireless mouse?
Pretty much, yep.Yep, I figured you could protect the flag better than me running thru the wrong porter. "killing frenzy"?
Wired mouse with laptop.
Another problem with my mouse....
I installed BootCamp and Window on my computer; to get my mouse to work I had to update the firmware. Since then it feels different. And not in a good way.
Though this slowing down with ghosts was happening way before I installed Windows.
*sigh* The things I have to put up with....

Hmmm...have you tried a different mouse from a different company? I don't know if this will help, but about 2 years ago a friend of mine had bad issues with a kensington mouse and his PC laptop. He had to disable the laptop's touchpad in order for the mouse to work correctly. I've also had issues with my dell laptop and a kensington trackball. I dont think the kensington software plays nice, which is a shame because on my old macs kensigton stuff ran great. My microsoft intelli mouse works better with my dell laptop, but occassionally the pointer freezes or behaves weirdly and I have to replug it in. But my main point is maybe contact tech support for your mouse, see if its a software conflict or borrow someone else's mouse and see if you still have issues.
Hope you can resolve it.
Another possibly for your slow up is your graphics card. Those plasma shots require a little more GPU. My PC had a GeForce 5200 FX and my Mac has a 9800 Pro. Not top of the line graphics cards at all and they struggle with hot burning, skin-melting ammo. What are you working with Lance (GPU and CPU)?
2.33Ghz C2D CPU and whatever GPU my MBP came with (ATI X1600 I think).
Next time we play I'll try dialing the settings back to see if it helps.
I don't think so. You always need a CD to install, AND as a key to play the game.
U could always get a pirate copy of Halo for Mac like me lol. and Lance thats meant to happen lol. If a ghost is shooting u of course its gonna slow u down. Think of it this way, if some1 shoots u you're going to get weaker and less energy lol until u die. And Lance u got a great laptop man. I want to get a MBP too. You're so lucky lol. I probs have 1 of the worse gaming rigs on Halo and I still own. I game on my MB. not the Pro the Macbook with only 512mb ram, and intel GMA 950 gfx card. Ur MBP has 2gb and 256 Vram and 2.33 ghz. Thats a great rig. I just always think to myself, I'm good now....I can't imagine how good I'd be if 1. I had at leat 1gb ram on my Macbook with cheap gfx card, 2. Had a mouse pad(I play with my laptop on my lap and use my couch as a mouse pad, and 3. Just had a better gfx card. I get like 17 fps in campaign lol and I still beat the game on Legendary.(very hard though, cuz when my fps goes down they kill me in like 2 secs lol.) Hope what I said helped and I wish I had your MBP
Whats ur address? lol

While that makes sense, why is it only with Ghosts? Why not all weapons? Or at least the plasma rifle or the Banshees plasma weapons...
It's all about prioritizing. I could have gotten a new car. But nope. First things first.And Lance u got a great laptop man. I want to get a MBP too. You're so lucky lol.

But since I went all out on the computer, my "desk" is two, two-by-fours and my mouse pad is a big book.
Eh?
What address do you mean (IP, email)?
And why do you need it?
There will definitely be one this Tuesday (June 5th).I'd like to join one of these games.
When's the next one coming up?
And is it in a euro friendly timeframe?
(lol
What would be a good time for you chaps across the pond? I could do 3:30 PM eastern (8:30pm in London).
Ooo... Invisatext in quotes!
