Users that dont purchase XBC Pro will still be able to join your 16 box games. They just won't be able to host them. Note: This does NOT mean that Halo will support 16 Boxes. It will only support 4, Remember, we cant change the way the games work! 2. Lets you search for users that have a game you want to play. XBC 2.2 asks users for the games they own and stores this information. XBC Pro users have the ability to ask the server who is online and has a certain game. XBC will then return a list of nicks. 3. You can change most fonts, colors and some images in XBC Pro. This lets you tune it visually. 4. Improved netcode and packet handling Information provided by Tod from XBConnect.
