In Halo has any1 ever had a game end in a draw once it started? This has happened 2 me several times and i thought they were hacks but then it happened 2 my friend and I who doesn't have a modded box or anything. Can u help?

Then 2 ALL NMP USERS if u are using NMP PLZ GO 2 THE NMP ARENA SO THAT THERE IS LESS LAG FOR THE USERS IN THE MAIN ARENA AND THERE R NO GAMES THAT END IN A DRAW!! Evil or Very Mad

The game can easily end in a draw, and people can win with 51 kills in a 50 kill game too - say your team is on 49 kills and then you score a double kill with one shot, most likely a rocket, you'll end up with 51 kills. For a draw, it's just really lucky, both teams scored their last kill at the exact same moment.

Another option might be to make sure you cleared your cache b4 playing... it helps avoid these issues as well.

Ah, fair enough. Most likely is either a different NMP version or someone just using different hacks then, my bad Smile

Another thing that can cause a game to end as soon as it starts is if someone has a software firewall.

500 posts!! this guy works hard! I've read that when you kill eachother at the exact same time, and halo doesn't know who to give it to, you get: 'blank' was killed by theguardians

Not quite...

It's really easy to get a *insert ingame name here* was killed by the guardians

It's halo's way of solving the fact that a dead person killed you.

For example -> You both run at each other pistoling, and end each other with a melee. Of course one of you has to hit the other one first, and kills the opponent, however, the game already started the melee animation of your oponenent and will end it (killing you). But since a dead person can't kill you -> you are killed by the guardians. (Makes you lose a kill btw...)

Cool thanks for the clarification!
