We're addressing the super high flag bounce off of certain objects – like the conveyor belt in Colossus. We're addressing the flag grab through solid walls problem (although you can still toss it through legitimate places, like gates and windows. Elite melee ghosting will be fixed (although it was never a massive problem). Sword flying will be gone (sorry Sword Flying Hobbyists – but we DID leave it in single player because it's fun!). We've addressed the "ghosted dropped weapon" problem (a gun you just couldn't pick up).
We've fixed the tie resolution problems (sorry Red team!). We've made some changes to how you can enter Clan matches (to make it easier). We've addressed the "bouncy" teleporting on Beaver Creek. We've fixed the useable "dead" turrets bug.
Cheats
We've addressed the modem standby cheat. Can't say how, but we've implemented several fixes to help alleviate this problem. We can't stop people from pressing suspend modem, but we can make it less worthwhile to them. We've also added a number of ways to make it more difficult for players to abuse the fact that they are the host of a game.
This is just a sampling of what we're fixing. Some things are insignificant, some you won't even have heard of, and others we don't want to discuss at this time. All in all, it should be a very pleasant and painless experience and one that improves your experience significantly.God damnit now halo 2 will suck ***.
