It took you 1 minute 17 seconds to complete halo? Somethins wrong there...


The Floodgate:
Is it 8 hours, or 8 minutes? Or are the stats just screwed.

Has anyone done SLASO while killing every enemy?

I have also completed the game completely SLASO meaning 1 of 2 people which has been confirmed by bungie and there's coming videos in youtube shortly there are now only Sierra 117 and there are coming also later Cortana which is less than 10 minutes long.

It may be glitched. I'll sign on to Live again when I get off work. It would suck if I had to do it again :-P

Yeah, I'm curious about the times to. On the one level it says 1 something so I guess it could be an hour, but the other says 8 something.. Did it take eight hours for one level? Let us know man! But congrats on what you've done so far.

Tyrant, my friend started a thread like this and it got locked because it was a "blog" you should join a LASO group on B.net and blog there. Just a friendly warning.

Floodgate definitely took less than 15 minutes on the actual run through. Halo took quite a bit longer due to the amount of patience it took to scale the tower in the first half.

Are you doing it legit fighting through the whole level, or speedrunning? Although you've done Halo, you can hammer jump and skip the whole first half of the level. I learned that from SonciJohn's Youtube vid.

I consider beating it SLASO legit whether you run through or not. You have to figure particularly with the famine skull, you don't have enough ammo to kill everything. Though I assure you I didn't speedrun through Halo. I tried that first since it worked with Floodgate, but kept getting pegged by smg wielding combat forms.

Yea right dude do I have to take you seriously while you only played the Halo mission for 1 minute and then say you completed it?

Yea, in my opinion, if all of the skulls are on and you complete the level, it counts. That's whether you 'speedrun' or not.

  • 05.22.2008 7:18 AM PDT

1.Arkham Asylum, 2.Mass Effect, 3.Halo CE, 4.Mass Effect 2, 5.Halo 2, 6.Splinter Cell Double Agent, 7.Gears of War 2, 8.Medievil, 9.Oblivion, 10.Crash Team Racing

Ok so it is speedrunning. It seems the others have done speedrunning too.

Atleast there's something to reach to, to kill every enemy on level. Just frustrating how my Live keeps disconnecting and then my Service Record said I completed the level without time, kills, shots or anything.

I mean its legit with speedruns and tricks, but when I say legit I mean no running, fighting everything. Which I wouldn't do on SLASO. My firend played Floodgate and Halo SLASO. He hammer jumped through Halo, and let the Arbiter do most of the work in floodgate, but fought the final battle legit, no running.

Thanks for the support :-)

I'm not really doing this for fun, but just to say that I can.

I've actually found that the Blind handicap really isn't the aiming. It's the health monitoring issue when you also have Black Eye on.

Aloha!

Tyrant, I like you :D you're the sort of person who see's a challenge and laughs at it.

Going through LASO takes guts...even in CLASO...but SLASO is insane. I'll admit I've not had enough time to get past more than Floodgate and Halo.

But, the original LASO thread contains a lot of good information (Saved Films and Fastest times-wise).

See Pahat Pojat's for guides on how to complete every level on SLASO (as he is one of the 2).

Here's his 4 Part Sierra 117 Video.

Remember, you've not completed Halo until you've finished SLASO or CLASO.

L.A.S.O. - Legendary All Skulls On - The general catch-all name
S.L.A.S.O. - Solo Legendary All Skulls On - For Solo Runs
C.L.A.S.O. - Cooperative Legendary All Skulls On - For Co-op Runs
S.C.L.A.S.O. - Sorta Cooperative Legendary All Skulls On - When one or more players out of the two/three/four in the game don't play.

Thank you for the confidence boost :-) It's fun watching other people do it. lol. Actually, on the Halo level, I took a different approach but that grav hammer trick is an interesting one. Hope to do it within the next week or two. It takes a LOT of patience!

Hah...I don't imagine that was anything compared to my 20+ hour straight run-through of Halo 2 on LASO...all I seem to remember is Tartarus yelling "Lucky hit...you will not have another!"

That battle alone lasted a good 4 hours O.o

To be honest, I just have a love for campaign. That's why I bought the game. MP, co-op, and the rest are just an added bonus.

Directed at Sonic, I can't even imagine the Regret hell you must've gone through. lol.
