My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Legendary... right.. after that? Possibly Mythic... Ok.. hopefully.. and after that..? Nothing? Great, thanks...

Is this ODST actually even going to be ..hard?

I want a game that I'm not actually holding my controller still. As much as I can't live with the fact that a game is not making me angry.

Game needs to be actually that hard that enemies are actually beating us unlike the opposite.


I heard Guitar Hero games can make people mad because of their difficulty. I mean, they obviously do. My brother made a hole in the wall playing it.

Achronos: And what's this about a "design team" I've been hearing? Apparently stosh is so awesome he's now considered a "team".

I will probably start on legendary for ODST so it will seem to me that I will be like the easy and when i do mythic it will seem like im playing on normal. :)

Edit: I have been trying to do rally point alpha on the storm and well i am an epic fail at the storm i have never liked the level and it has never liked me. I was testing some other ways to try and kill the scarab i nearly got it to fall of the cliff but i did mannge to get it up ont the factory on the end the you have to go through the door it started walking on air.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!


Worst Friday ever!!!!! =)

Btw, I wanna ask everybody:

What difficulty will you start Halo: ODST on? Easy, Normal, Heroic or Legendary? Oor, Mythic, if available?


I'm going to start on Heroic since Bungie have said that Heroic on ODST = Legendary on Halo 3.
Mythic's gonna be even harder.

  • 01.24.2009 4:34 AM PDT

God DAMN! Another game where we don't fight the elites?

Brutes annoy me, Elites I respect.

I'll also start the way I always start. Normal first, then upwards from there.

We haven't seen the game yet so we can't tell. Bungie may screw up the difficulty quite drastically.

I just hope they won't make it like CoD5. CoD5 on Veteran wasn't hard or challenging, it was epic fail. If you've played it, you know what I mean.

Halo on Mythic now completed and on my fileshare.

No way I could do this without Tyrant, though I do edit the walkthrough a little here and there when I need to.

You act as if ODST will play identically to Halo 3. Considering that, unlike what you do in Halo 3, your ability to rush through areas will be severely compromised, yeah. You can't run as fast, you can't jump as high, and you most certainly cannot take anywhere as much damage.

Is that good enough for you?

My thoughts exactly.

I say we just wait, the game is far away right now and for all we know, Bungie will place Snipers on the 2 kilometers tall building rooftops.

Yay for snipers that can kill us in one hit on Normal!

Here is some food for thought: In Halo 3, when you have no shields in Campaign, a single bullet/Carbine round to the head will kill you.

Now, the Chief is wearing a helmet, but he still dies in one hit to the head when his shields are down.

...so why is that the ODSTs don't die when I headshot them? What makes their helmet so much better than mine?

What I'm really getting at is the question: Will we die in one hit to the head from headshot weapons in Halo 3:ODST?

That's an interesting thought, if Carbine wielding enemies suddenly become medium range snipers we'll have a problem. As for the helmet I really don't know although Bungie did mention that there's going to be a new health system so who knows.
Also while on Campaign isn't it impossible to headshot the marines wearing helmets (as in the ones which only cover the top of their heads) too?

I believe their helmets fall off if you hit them anywhere on the head other than the face.

I'm going to start on Mythic straight away if I can. Otherwise Normal just to grab all the Skulls then Mythic.

If there is a Mythic. I suppose ODST may have it's own skulls or something, because certain Blackeye and Fog really wouldn't do anything in ODST.

  • 01.24.2009 2:27 PM PDT

Hello, Community!

Hopefully if you're reading this, it's because you're interesting in kicking your campaign experience up a notch by cranking up the Legendary with all skulls activated :-) Need advice? A guide? Maybe even a friendly community to cheer you on and help guide you through the process? Then give our Mythic thread a read, and Godspeed on your Mythic journey!

Best Regards,
The Tyrant

Possibly the six MP skulls will be our expansion skulls? Just a thought. A shorter game may mean less skulls if any.

That's what I was thinking too.

Btw, does anybody find it amusing that some people won't buy becasue we're fighting Brutes again?

And about the helmets, that's obviously for game play reasons. The pilots' and the ODSTs' helmets are like that so they'll actually be a better help compared to the normal marines.

Think about it, do you have any idea how hard it would to BR someone if the MJOLNIR armor really was as strong at it is?

omg how did you get so many headshots from that distance, without any crosshair?!

  • 01.24.2009 4:57 PM PDT

I just had a realization. I used the Gauss Warthog turret on the Ark, which disqualifies that run.

Good. I was getting a little bored with no Mythic to do. I guess I'll go fix that so it will truly be a Misanthropic run.
