That Sierra 2.0 looks much easier, I may be trying it soon, I really want to make some progress but struggling with confidence and urge to do it right now, still very much into matchmaking and want levels.

Jimmatt, you're already a General so why would you want to rank up more? :-S


Heh, if he's anything like me, he wants a 50 in every playlist :D.

So far I've got it in Team Slayer, Team Doubles, and Lone Wolves. I'm a 48 in Team Objective, but it looks like that's going away, so so much for that...

I feel like I'm 7 and playing with my pokemon cards. I gotta catch em all.

Signatures are for squares.

Alright, I've got "Halo" and "FloodGate" finished, working on the storm now...

Tyrant, if u want I can record it for u, if that one guy from b4 can't. I was just about to put my old card in my other computer. I need to record some clips anyway so I'll haveit all set up.
Doood, you're supposed to record some stuff for me too remembarr? =)


lol dont worry, I'll get your stuff too.

Tyrant- Que'd for download.

I'll start working on the capture card today. I've still gotta install it, get the drivers, and tweak the settings. I just hope it'll work alright. I am putting it on a less sophisticated desktop, but since I'm still too poor to afford a new one, I'm going to have to make it work.

I'll get back to you guys later today with my results. I'm going to run some test videos for a bit as well.


Thank you!

Ah, and nicely done, Private Caboose :-)

I very nearly completed cortan earlier. Everything had gone smoothly, and there was very little trouble throughout the run apart from a dodgy moment in the hive when I was pinned down by three ranged forms.
I got all the way back, very nearly to the pelican, when I came up against the last few enemies: an elite with a sword, and two carrier forms. I had a carbine and an energy sword. I was feeling pretty confident. I went to stick the nearest carrier, and I then realised that I had no grenades left. Oh ****. I tried to jump round them, and made it with no shields, but then got instantly killed by a ranged form because of my lack of health. I could see the pelican in my death screen.
:(
At least I know I can do it now.

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

Could anyone give me some quick advice here? I'm just about to trigger the cutscene "Quid Pro Quo" on Sierra 117 which leads to the dam. Unfortunately I'm sort of at a loss of how to handle things, amazingly only 1 Jackal had a Beam Rifle all the way through the mission and I used it earlier so it's empty. Similarly I have no equipment to use whatsoever which is a bit annoying.
All I've got is a semi charged Plasma Pistol and a full BR, having watched version 2.0 I think this should be enough, but I don't feel awfully confident about the beginning rush into the underpass as a sniper will probably get me. Any suggestions or clarification for that section?

a similiar thing happened to me. i killed those flood and the popping forms and i was peeking around the corner and one of them came back to life with a shotgun.i was dead before i could react. all i heard was PICHEW! very disapointing. but like you said, it means you CAN do it.

9/10, if you don't alert the enemies, the snipers won't touch you. You are just as liokely to get sniped when engaging them directly from the cliff. The only difference is you won't have Brute Shots hammering your position from below. Just get there as fast as you can and wait it out. The video demonstrates how to deal with the snipers as well.

On another note, if the Chieftain rushes your position, you're going to have to take him out via the Covenant 2.0 method (aka assassination). It isn't hard, but just wanted to give you a heads up.

Keep in mind that the snipers have their Beam Rifles on their backs at the dam so that will give you some breathing space since it takes like forever for them to draw.

Thanks, but unfortunately Arbiter had gone on ahead and when I got there he did his war cry then pointed at the brutes below and said something like "a battle awaits" at the top of his voice. Needless to say every enemy in the place was throwing grenades/brute shot/sniper rounds at our ledge. At least it was quick.
Also, when dealing with the Chieftain could I not just Plasma Pistol his shields then uncover his head with my BR? I'm not all that confident at avoiding his lunge as I've never tried it before.
Anyway, time to try again, I'll be back either with news of success or wondering what went wrong.

I went ahead and did a Floodgate 2.0 for those who are just starting out and need a little help with things. This incorporates the "rush" method that keeps the mission under five minutes. If anyone has 5 render minutes to spend, I would be very grateful :-)

Hey guys. Well, after I was done with finals today, the last thing I wanted to do was work on my capture card. I went as far as removing it from my old desktop and putting it in my new one, then I decided that I needed some entertainment. So I played a little Mythic. Thats when all my happy thoughts died.

I was on Sierra 117, and everything was going perfectly. I pro'd up the entire thing, the dam worked perfect, the soldiers were rescued, and the pelican came in and pwned the phantoms. So, I happily thought "OMG! I did it!" so I skipped happily over to the dam, and started making my way for the pelican.

Bad idea.

Just as I rounded the corner, I hear a "TSSSSSSTTT"

I turn around just in time to see a plasma grenade thrown by a grunt land right next to me.

Needless to say, screams and cursing ensued.

So, I took a break for a while and watched "Donnie Darko."

Nothing screws with your mind as much as that movie. From there, I decided to throw in some games of MM.

Tomorrow I will be studying for my last final, and from there, I'm hoping to have lots of free time to finish up my Mythic runs.

I would but I only have 4 minutes. I wanted to see what someone was whining on about so I rendered his film. Pointless

I'm on my third mythic level, Tsavo Highway. I've done Floodgate and Halo, because they were the easiest.

Also if you die should you go back to the menu and restart or let the game just restart you back at the beginning of the level?

Third easiest one is the storm, well it was for me. It is advised to go back to the menu.


I almost got through Tsavo Highway. I got to the very last couple wraiths and ran out of ammo with the plasma pistol. Unfortunately i couldn't find another. I thought there were two laying around. Any way i tried to board one wraith but the other one got in a lucky shot. Oh well....

The first flood pod to drop in front of you and Arbiter as you approach the control room
is a brute flood morph with a gravity hammer that is easily taken, and used the way
prescribed in their strategy.

I have my own way w/o the grav hammer, but it doesn't net me quick campaign times.

Im just teasing myself anyway, I cant get into Mythic group until im on XBL.
But, I love the challenge.. Ive always been a campaign nerd regardless of
internet connection!

Best of luck guys!

Indeed, but one foul move can throw your mythic endeavor in the trash can!
Usually people attempting mythic arent that noob to accidentally kaboom
themselves!

then again, cowbell is my favorite skull for a reason. LOL!
