Halo 2 Leaderboards = soon to be destroyed
No more modders/cheaters etc.
It might need skill to get 28+ for a change.
Yeah, anyone who still plays it. Rejoice.

It has now happened, officially.
Everyone still has a level, it's just the top 1000 players aren't displayed anymore.
New playlist as well by the way, "Team Hardcore".
Sounds remotely pornographic, so I guess I'll end up checking it out.
And yes, OddToe, I have it working. You can suck my non-cheated level 28 if you want? :P

It's the downloadable maps that caused the problem, the disc-based maps were fine.
As it happens both sides usually just want to have a fair game so they either team kill the modder until he leaves or simply leave themselves and leave the modder to face an entire team who just want to gib the modder over and over again for 12 mins.
Haven't seen any modders since the last update anyway, but the community's pretty good at dealing with them.
and anyone caught modding/standbying/even having a severely fluctuating connection is banned.

Sorry I really don't mean to troll, but I remember the reason Live was the greatest (!!21one!) was because everyone was on even footing and there wouldn't be any cheating/hacking like CS...

Yeah, there were some truly awesome, serious matches I played in. And some really funny ones too.
Trouble is, around a 1/3rd of the time you had cheats/annoying morons/totally imbalanced teams or something to that effect - and if you started as blue you were screwed.

How can people mod the maps anyway?
Also, I never did understand how it worked out your rank. At least a feel a bit better knowing I wasn't being a spazzer when I thought I'd shotgunned someone in the face about 4 times and not killed them.
Sometimes on Halo 2 you can actually have a really good game. No one cheats and you're all a similar level so it's close = really good fun. I haven't had many of the screaming yanks you lot warned me about, maybe I've just been lucky...

If they were slashing a big pink sword about that might have been the problem. :P

Although I have to add, there were times when you'd be dual wielding two full clips into someones face and they manage to kill you instead...

Most of the balls-ness came from the glitching and stuff though - the game itself was pretty fun to an extent, although I always preferred GR2 and Splinter Cell.

I'm surprised it's taken them this long to do that.
I'd imagine the level system will still exist, but you won't be able to see what rank you are compared to everyone else, you'll just be another level 'x'.
It's a shame, because it was all the corruption that put me off this game, and ultimately, the Xbox (coupled with WoW of course).
I'll see you all on the 360 for a bit of Gotham3 or PD0 goodness...

So there's no leaderboard now?
Do people still have levels? I guess they must have for matchmaking and stuff.

I always knew that the geeks would take over Halo 2 and I was right. Can't believe some retards take games so seriously that they have to ruin the community for everyone else.

People can mod the maps so that they have the abilities to spawn vehicles, turn invisible and run fast.

Leaderboards are going away. Sorry. The rank-who-res, modders, boosters, cheaters and assorted scumbags have so polluted the Leaderboards that they were basically becoming an official list of America's idiots anyway. There are a few genuinely brilliant players up there, and to them we apologize. To the rest of the folks on the Leaderboards: Tough. Enjoy your hard-earned anonymity.
Excellent.
This will get me back into the game, it won't stop modding though.
:(
Have you got LIVE still many goats?

Cool.
Haven't played it for around 2 months now (mainly due to taking a large break from Live in general) but this'll get me back on it.
