I would like to play on the hardest but then I would miss out on all the tutorials at the beginning and end up not knowing something that would really help...

normal for 3 reasons.

1. I want to see the story unravel as soon as possible.

2. I want to then be surprised by the A.I. on the harder difficulties.

3. |I want to play the tutorial.

All adds to the experience in my opinion!!!

I voted heroic But I may start on normal. That is the way I did Halo CE it was alot of fun because you kinda learn the layout of the levels on normal and then when you come back on heroic and legendary it is really a totaly different experience because you have to use different tacticts on different levels of difficulty so I may start on normal but from what bungie said its going to be more difficult since the enemy AI is going to be so much better so normal may play like heroic or even legendary (uhmm goodness) so legendary is probably going to be a whole new ballgame. and I can't wait.

I'm thinking Easy just so I can play the tutorial thing and so I can learn the story as fast as possible. Plus, then I can memorize the level (just how to get from A to B) before I go and play on Legendary.

Normal so I can quickly beat the game and concentrate online.

I would only play the easy difficulty so I could get through the story line NOW. And you could ask why then I just don't do easier than Easy; that is because there has got to be some half-intellegence to the enemies at the later levels. But once I beat it and I play through it again (cause I am gonna get all of the difficulty medals in H2 just like in Halo) I would probably play it on Heroic cause as far as I can tell, that is the closest to the books. Assuming, of course, that I care to do this since there will be Multiplayer.

i will play normal for the reasons stated above AND becuase normal is well the dificulty disgned first hence the term "normal" meaning that normal is the general lvl of AI and anything above is just adding damage to the enemys weapons and weekening you.
