I wish you luck. You will need it. For some reason I had a bloody nightmare at the start of Sword Base. It had been a breeze up until then.

Holy (swearword)! That part was freakin retardedly hard. I had to do it about 5 or 6 or a million times!!!!! Legendary is super hard this time around, especially with skulls on.

 I just finished the Legendary solo run. Remind me, which chapter is Sword Base? Weren't we there twice?

 Nevertheless, I had the most trouble at the last mission with all the Brutes. I got stuck in a corner with no ammo, and had to dive for a grunt pistol over and over, to only get it once out of every ten times, then proceed to kill the ten or so brutes left. Fortunately the pistol packs a punch now. I know I could've reverted back, but that was a dead end to, so I just slugged it out. Probably took the better half of an hour to get past that part.

Sword base is the second or third mission. Starts off with you and Kat against a whole lot of Grunts, Jackals and Elites. Its the sheer numbers that make it so difficult.

I know what you mean about being stuck at the end I was stuck for about an hour and a half on heroic at the bit just after the Brutes with the Elites that retreat into the building. I just didn't have the weapons to deal with that situation.

 Yeah, at the last part with the elites I had to go straight rush on 'em. I'd pick up a plama grenade, chuck it on one, if it landed I would pray that the few bullets I threw in his face would off him, then run out, heal, rinse and repeat. I got lucky quick off, so I didn't get bogged down there.

 I remember that part with Kat at Sword Base. I had a hell of a time there as well, because lack of ammo, and the sheer stupidity of the ally AI. It just amazed me the whole game how ignorant your AI could be, whilst the enemy AI were rocket scientist. They always seek cover, which kills you against elites because they regen.

Has the AI caused your death yet? Several times I've been in cover recovering my shields between picking off Grunts or Jackals only to be pushed back out into the stream of plasma by my own AI team mates suddenly deciding they want the cover that I'm occupying.

[B3taMaxxx]

No, but I have had both the spartan AI and soldier AI throw grenades at my feet killing me, and there is the always amusing grenade toss gone bad (ie; into a cieling).



I guess I'd have to say for the most part my AI teammates were nowhere to be found, so they couldn't bump me.

Did anyone's Spartan model updated on B.net? It still shows my Spartan from the 14th...

Same here I updated mine a few days ago but its still my original one from the 14th on B.net.

As for the AI. I like to give the soldiers/civilians rocket launchers and sniper rifles as they get infinate ammo and sometimes after they die you get the weapon back with more ammo than you gave it away with. But it can go horribly horribly wrong when you get shot in the back of the head by your own team mates rocket.

[B3taMaxxx]

Ah yes, this is why I've tried to stop playing 'random firefight'. If an AI is bad enough, human players seem to be worse...................sometimes.

Oh my God, I finally managed to complete Legendary solo. Pillar of Autumn took me ages because all the soldiers who normally distact the Covenant infantry got killed before I even reached them. Had to fight my way through countless Ultras and Skirmishers.

I only played FF Matchmaking once, it sucked, just as expected I doný understand why people wanted FF matchmaking...
Firefight is the best to play with friends where you can co-operate or atleast don't have everyone rush for the same weapon...

And my Spartan still hasn't been updated, Six isn't even a man anymore! <_<

I love Halo 1 and 2, and when I bought Halo 3 I was expecting more of the same. Then I completed the ridiculously short campaign and was left wondering "is that it?" and have not played a Halo game since. Halo Reach looks good, but I've read the Halo books and what I've read about the plot it doesn't seem to quite keep continuity with the books. That annoys me enough to not want to play it. Out of curiosity, roughly how long does it take to complete?

[numotsbane]

depends on the difficulty, I just waltzed through in a couple of hours on normal for kicks but I plan on doing it legendary, which I expect will take a fair chunk of time.

 I was disapointed with Halo3 as well. It's hard for to say how long Reach was. I did the legendary campaign in several 2 hour sessions per day. I'd guess it maybe took 12 hours, but I'm really uncertain.

[Druss99]

Heroic campaign took me around 13 hours I'd say. Legendary is going much quicker but I haven't played it in a couple of days.

Thing about the story no longer making sense in relation to the books my mate claims they are re-releasing Fall of Reach so that it makes more sense in relation to the game. Which is just bad bad writing if you ask me.

I only played 3 games of FF all with the same 3 guys and it was an ok experience. To be honest I'd never played it before and I just did my thing and let them do theirs. There was no team work involved. Just me killed alot of big assed aliens with high caliber weapons.

(POST CONTAINS EPIC SPOILERS)

I don't think that's true...

And it makes perfect sense. The only plotholes are "Why was the Pillar of Autumn's "pick up" of the Cortana upgrade never mentioned in Fall of Reach?", "Reach lasted longer than usual" and "WTF happened to Jun?!"

For the record, you don't pick up Cortana, you pick up an upgrade which without she probably would've never understood Halo or its secrets. This is confirmed in Hasley's Journal.

[Druss99]

They have re-released Fall of Reach but wether theres any changes or not I dunno. I'm with you though I doubt it, but my mate is adamant that its true. I may need to eliminate him...



Has anyone tried Fire Fight match making? Its an epic disaster with the ability to boot people for betraying you. Theres idiots running allover the place while your firing off grenades and other massive explosions if they happen to run into one of these explosions and die they can boot you from the game.

It happened me earlier. We had battled through to the final wave. Five enemies remaining and a gold Elite charges into the room. I unload my grenade launcher bounching the grenades through his legs, off the wall and hitting him on the back. I killed him this way but not before an idiot team mate of mine could charge at him on some sort of suicide mission just asking to be meleed or blown up. Needless to say he died in the explosion that killed the Elite and booted me for it. I was leading scorer and there was 4 enemies left. If I ever get my hands on that guy...

I know right? It annoys the hell out of me especially since i'm pretty unlucky and people have a habit of jumping in front of my ghost. I think Bungie didn't understand that if a player is given any power over another what-so-ever they will take it.

Due to thousands of people complaining about it, Bungie will probably fix it since it's easy to do so.

Been playing Gruntpocalypse in Score Attack alone. Great way to rack up credits/commendations and it's fun as hell.

[numotsbane]

gruntpocalypse on legendary in... corvette/ zealot? (the really small circular map in a covenant ship) - is absolutely brutal, was doing it with just one other guy and multiple plasma grenades and fusion cannons in a confined space makes it almost impossible.



I'm actually finding re-doing sections of the campaign really fun. just because most levels have a real good range of different things to do.

Yeah its a nightmare it happened to me twice last night and the general chaos means that its bound to happen. We played a game with all rocket launchers and it happened, I blowed up an Elite and some clown jetpacks into the explosion then boots me for it. All your work in that game is lost because some fool isn't looking where they are going. Once you pull the trigger or hit accelerate in your ghost its kind of out of your hands its up to them to get out of the way. Theres a list of fixes on the bungie weekly update unfortunately thats not on it yet. Fire Fight is quite fun other than that problem.

 Lol, yeah, I kicked a bud of mine out when I was screwing around. I had no idea that one press of the X would cut him as if I were using a guillotine. He was pissed, I was confused, and perhaps a little amused.

Yeah thats actually a big problem with it. It pops up so fast and your intent on getting back to killing things you just see the big blue X on the screen and hit it. I was lucky I just noticed what it was before I pressed X and stopped myself. I would say theres alot of people being booted without the other person even realising they booted them.
