Whats so special about being the host in halo 3?

Question

well yea so theses guys in match making were telling me i'm lucky that i got host and i asked why so they said you get to do some special things. so whats so special about it?

Answer 1

nothing, you have the best connection and that's what's keeping the game up. If you quit, the game would pause and they would have to find a new host.

Answer 2

sometimes if u get host u get an advantage like if u play sword with kids ur sword reacts faster by like 1 sec but the 1 sec gives u the kill....and u wont lagg unless ur connection is...and kids want to stand by they cant cuz u will have host but they will flood ur ip....host can be used to cheat so yea its good...

usally its just it wont lagg on ur screen

Answer 3

ALOT you have advanteges over everyone like your weapons are slightly stronger, you can get shot more and live, jump slightly further/higher, melee slightly faster, so everyone kind of hates whoever is host cause they are all around better.

Answer 4

Nothing really.

Answer 5

The Host usually sets the game up or has access to change game settings, like game type and stuff like that.
