Have the social skills and confidence to invite a female into the inner sanctum. I think? Maybe?

(Most likely step 2 is just have fun)

I only play vanilla,  because CE has too many mods that don't make much sense. The Mods alter the dynamics so much, that the game just isn't the same..


For example, even on Vanilla, the modded Gulch servers with the teleporting to the cliffs,

That breaks the game, because the weapons were not meant to be effective that far out.

And because the player base is not large enough,  there's not enough people that can Figure out the NEW way to play on that map.  so you don't get a competitive game, you just get "people" who know how to play, and the rest are just running around aimlessly

That's interesting you say that since there are definitely more "vanilla" servers on Custom Edition. As you've noticed, Halo PC has a lot of modded servers since there is such a limited map rotation. Since there are a lot of custom map servers, the dedicated default map servers are almost always unmodded.

Last time I played about 2-3 year ago, there were very few players on CE, so I installed Vanilla.

If I were to guess you may not have had the 1.09 patch. At that time there were always 1000-3000 people playing at any given time. But say you had the 1.08 patch, you might have gotten lucky if you saw more than five servers. Now everyone's on the 1.0.10 client update since the Gamespy master server shut down and thousands of people play every day :D.

I just checked the master server and as of 3:30 AM EST there's still 300 people playing. During the day there's always over 1000 people playing, and in the evening, especially Friday-Saturday there's over 2000 people playing. So throughout the day there are definitely thousands of people playing.
