We may not even need to wait that long since your time difference is only an hour off from mine. Care to do a two-person co-op at some point this week after our usual CLASO?

After you killed the final Jump pack Brute, you had no shields and that Jackal was shooting at you with a Carbine.

We could. I don't know why I even attempted to get down there in the first place...wait, now I remember. He didn't die by Firebombs, and then I noticed he would run off. So I watched through the floor and saw him go hide. Then I got down there on accident, and cautiously went to where he was. I hit him in the back...but it wasn't a perfect hit. He doesn't move, though. I hit him again and it works.

After that, I kept practicing that drop several times and did die from it one time until I had it down. The only thing that sucks is that every now and then he drops a Flare for me instead of Invincibility.

Ok, If someone could watch this video and tell me how to overcome the Ghost problem. Because Its causing me to die all the time!

Its only 20minutes long.

I missed 1 rocket shot, but destroyed both Choppers. Then a Grunt pilots the Ghost i didn't destroy, but I kill that. Then another one comes along from no where and kills me.

That secondary Ghost shows up at a variable point.

What I did was I went up to the hill with a Plasma Pistol and Rockets. Take out your Plasma Pistol and shoot one bolt at the intended vehicle. Do not adjust your aim, but zoom in to make sure it hits the vehicle. If it does, without changing your aim, switch to Rocket Launcher and fire. Rinse and repeat.

  • 09.02.2008 11:45 AM PDT

grrr


keep dieing at the last part of Floodgate!!!

it's the ones that shoot at me...even with full (I think full) shields I die

question: will a regenerator restore me into oversheilds?

But the second Ghost appears while I'm still in the first area with the Choppers, I only have 3 rockets to destroy the parked vehicles. And I don't have a PP.

Its not like Halo 2, You can't go into Overshields. Bring a Deployable Cover with you and lay it down in front of the enemies killing you then go around it and slash them.

  • 09.02.2008 11:51 AM PDT

If you don't go over the hill, the Chopper shouldn't come after you. If you need a Plasma Pistol, check up by the door where you came in to the area. There are three or four Grunt corpses with Plasma Pistols next to them.

The PP is just to make sure where you're aimed at. It's similar to something I would do in Halo:CE on AotCR to get a Banshee, but that's a story for another day.

What it is, I jack the Chopper after all the Parked Vehicles are dead, then my Marines go right up by the enemies by the Parked Vehicles and die, then a second Ghost comes along which kills me. The Chopper isn't a problem. Also, in the video the Brutes go into the Marines Prowler, which didn't attack me.

Is there anyway to stop that second Ghost coming or making it easier to kill, Because by that time I don't have any Rocket ammo and the BR wont do anything. Maybe If i leave the BR behind and take Rocket Launcher and a PP?

If your Marines are still alive, why don't you give the Rocket Launcher to one of them?

Seems riskier to me. That and the Marines have no incentive to fire at a parked vehicle...that and it's out of range to them, but it should work as long as he keeps the front end of the Prowler in the path of enemy fire.

Happy to help :-) Just make sure you stay out of their path, otherwise we both know what will happen ;-)

He can also do what I do and jump out of the Prowler just as the enemy begins pouring on the plasma. I use the same technique for the Warthog.

Now I know that, I should be able to get through that area easier. Meaning I should complete the level in the next few days! Yay.

What I plan to do is give the Marine the Rocket Launcher, so there will be a Marine in the Turret and a Marine in the passenger seat with a Rocket Launcher, Drive it over the hill and leave it in a place were the enemies can be killed from. Jump out and hide untill I can get in the Chopper, by this time the Marines should have killed the enemies.

Now to test it and see if it works. Btw, the first to area's are so annoying. I made a tactic for them both so there easy, but I still don't like it.

Also, regarding the Hunters, I found it easier to get close to them so they go to melee you then backtrack and keep doing that untill you have them in the position you need. I do this to postion them so when I throw my Grenade it will send them flying of the map. It find it easier than waiting for them to come around the corner.

Can you upload a segmwnt so I can see? The Hunter technique is still one I have yet to attempt :-)
