Master the art of campaign scoring and achieve massive points with this handy guide.

Is that 100% accurate?

While playing through the campaign on Legendary, I noticed that I received 500 pts for the Brute Leaders, and 300 for the Brute Infantry, using the PP + Headshot combo. So with 50 pts at 4x for Legendary, you're looking at 200 for Legendary Brute Leader kills, and 200 pts at 2.5x (500) for the noob combo kills. Or has the game glitched in my favor?

i havea few good tips up my SPARTAN sleve:

1. WATCH YO' SHIELDS!
2. Taking cover has its advantages, so use it.
3. Dont be a tidus93 and fling an EMP ball at your feet while in a mess of enemies, keep your fingers off the the x button
4. Campaign mode is different then Multiplayer Mode, its you, and 3 others, vs 100,000 others while in Multiplayer, its you and 7 others vs 8
5. 343 is annoying.

Ok so i've beat the game twice now, whats up with the cave men that you have on the first level sitting next to a rock in some random spot in the jungle? haha it was pretty funny when we found them. I have recorded the video of it so I'll pass it around to people on my friends list.

Thanks for the article.

Betrayels are when someone (coop player) kills you right?

I have a question about the achievements linked to the scoring, is it individual score of 15grand or more? Because my friends an I always got a team score of greater than that and still have not gotten anything?

Game scoring is a great addition to the game:)

Has anyone noticed that even if you turn on all the skulls it just displays (x3.00) as the multiplier. Must be a bug or 'feature'. I think it even doesn't calculate the thing right. cause with all the skulls turned on and multiplying each other. Otherwise a basic kill on normal would be worth 900 points. and it most definitely isn't!

Doesn't make it any less fun though

i noticed none of the silver skulls are not included in the page... does that mean that they do not have a multiplier value?

Here is another tip for point scoring.

If you are playing SP when you die you lose a few points and go back to the last checkpoint. However, you do NOT lose all of the points you earned since the checkpoint. Meaning if you are at a section with a bunch of guys/vehicles that dish out a lot of points, when you die you will end up restarting at the last checkpoint with more points than you had the first time, and can then go kill them again for more points. Rinse and repeat until you get enough points.

ok for the achievements, do you HAVE to play it individually to get them? or can you play coop free for all and still get 15k points and get the achievement? my neighbor and i were wondering because we didnt want to go back through the game in legendary again to get the achievement if it wasnt gonna give it to us. any help would be great.

ok iv completed the game on normal some on heroic and ledgedary. the best tips i can give are headshot on the grunts first as massed fire can kill, then rack up a killing thing bonus as you get a lot then quickly go kill the brutes in melee combat as you get extra for that. sticking in a big group works well too. andd always kil the vechicles dnt try and snipe teh drivers just go destroy the vechicles. i managed 2 stick the driver of a brute chopper so i got brute kill with stick and then loads for chopper and i killd the grunts with it aswell. but yeh erm the skuls turn them on. they help alot espesh if you turn on famine (the less ammo one) the promotion one asyou get extra points andd the extra health one.

i managed to get 15000 plus half way thru tsavo highway on normal but cudnt get past the brute chopper bit

and while im posting
please. please please. bungie
im begging you
im only 3 days in and i have nearly 600 gamerscore. ill be getting the terminal 1 soon
and doing it on heroic and ledge online soon and then will go backk and get the metagames
im begging you do a achievement update and add more
ill even do them for you
it would go something like this
5 or 10 points for getting 500/1000 kills with a gun
playing a 1000 matches
one of each medal
certain number of ghost kills etc so warthog or ghost or - splatter or gun turrets
get a certain number of each medal and/or certain number of medals all together
then if you get a hundred killing sprees
or double kills or stuff you get more
andd a certain number of kills altogether
and on some levels you get a number of kils in total
and play a number of games
iv got i think 580 kills in 83 games so it needs to be quite high for fans to aim for

all achievements should be in ranked games any playlish so boosting wont happen and its long term that people wont get soon and have to work at so its skill


just something to make it a long term game
like shadowrun
the current achievements are just luck or boringg
like needler one - done in first 50 secs of having a needler
sniper one took a whil longer as it was headshots and i often ran outta ammo and the marines killed them before i could
the mongoose one is also luck as the mongoose is horrible at running people over
and mvp 1 no idea how i got that it popped up on my screen one day
the beatdown was in my first game i think i just pumelled them all
the triple kill and overkill are just stupid as its only in free for all ranked which only has 5 players i think is near impossible


i and many other gamers iv talked to arent happy with the achievements being to much on chance and no replayabitly on multiplayer which is very good
but no challenge to get kills
the only ongoing ranking system overall is the ranking system but its nice to show off achievements of kills

i would go on but you get the message


p.s anyone who agrees go post on forums and message bungie asking for these achievements or achievements like these :)

All your tactics seem to revolve around being an -blam!- to your friends. How is that fun? Team scoring seems way better.

  • 10.01.2007 2:30 PM PDT

Halo 3 FTW

true it seems that way alot. I got a great way to kill them. Stick them with a grenade when they run into the fray with an energy sword or Gravity Hammer. They die, you Live, you lose 25, 50, 75, 100 points but gain like 500

343 Guilty Fart

I'm confused by Bungie's math. You don't add multipliers together. x4 for Legendary and x3 for Skulls doesn't equal x7. Their chart says a 100 point baddie becomes 700 points, but really shouldn't it be 100 x 4 x 3 = 1200?? Did I miss elementary school or something or is their math off?
