Bungie and Gearbox, not willing to let the first weekend go by with no dedicated server in the hands of the fans, has made available this pre-release version of the dedicated server. It's completely standalone; it doesn't require anything, not even a copy of Halo PC. Basic instructions are included, but more information can be found at
Bungie's Tru7h and Reconciliation site. Again, we stress that this is a pre-release version of the server; it's here for the die-hards who want to host games NOW. A more polished version will be coming soon.
