Great work dude. But I think you will really struggle on Tsavo Highway.


Thanks :-)

From what I've seen, there's a shortcut around the big Brute battle just after the bridge.

Get over yourself - drink vodka!

The vehicle maps are the worst (Tsavo Highway and The Covenant). You can run through most parts of the other levels. Good luck though - it's an amazingly tough road you've chosen.
I might make my own attempt at it someday soon.

The main part I'm worried about on Tsavo Highway is the last battle. There's no way around it...

EDIT: I will be doing a LOT of offline practicing with that segment before the full attempt. Nothing more aggrivating than getting all the way to the end of the level, then having to start all of again.

From what I've experimented with, you should rush through the level in a chopper and at the ending battle do this: destroy the gun emplacement and kill the uber-brute and then destroy the shield generator. That should trigger the cutscene without you having to kill everybody. (try this separate from your SLASO run as a test trial).

That's a very good idea. Thanks for the tip!!!

You should post the links to the games (Service record) when you complete a Level.


They are in the OP.

Is that 19 minutes or 19 hours for cortana?

If it's 19 minutes isn't that impossible?

19 minutes.

That's actually pretty bad considering the current Cortana SLASO record is 10.

Basically it's just running through most of the level. The hive can be quick if you know where to deploy your bubble shield followed by active camo. And of course, don't forget to melee those brute forms and stalkers!

EDIT:

That does not include over all time. I spent roughly an hour on the Floodgate run, but the run that actually made it was only 8 minutes. The current record is less than 5.

I spent over six hours yesterday on Cortana.

Do me a favor. Start up a campaign level and turn on the iron skull. Now beat it. Now go online and check your stats once you do. Now tell me how many deaths you have...

Nah. You have a considerable amount of grenade-tossing allies in that level.
