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!

Ok.

Tyrant,

Whenever you are ready,

Just post a response in this thread, saying that you got my submission..


*salutes*

Yes, sir!

*rolls eyes*

I got it. You're fine.

FYI - You submitted at 4:43 my time. 4:43 comes after 4:30 ;-)

Hey Tyrant?
I was doing my mod duties In Q4M and came across a dilema... Can I let a person in if they have gamestats proving they've done a level on Mythic but not a valid film in their fileshare?

On a Mythic related front. I tried to get my submission for the contest done yesterday but it seems my Internet Is so terrible I can't even connect to live. Needless to say I can't wait for the fibre-optic upgrades to be finished... Well! Back to Prototype.

Oh. I was messing round on Rally Point Bravo (The Ark... Of course) and was trying to rush It. I managed to get into the corridor the War-Chieftan comes out of before he leaves with his entourage and jumped clear over them and continued on, twice. Was pretty slick.

Can anyone recommend switching over to Bumper-Jumper? Does it help so much to warrant rehabilitating my fingers? Or should I Let It Be? Whisper your words of wisdom please!

Thanks for the help :-) It's much needed and will continue to be needed as the contest continues. If they don't have a film in their file share, then they did not meet the necessary requirements, and therefore, they cannot be accepted. Thanks for checking :-)

Xbox Live was down yesterday. I'm surprised you didn't know about it. lol.

I do something similiar in my Ark 2.0 video. Check it out.

I use bumper jumper. I pretty decent demonstration of this is again in my Ark 2.0 video where I was being tailed by a berserking Brute. I promptly jumped, spun around, and put three in his brain. In my opinion, it's a vast improvement over default.

I need some major help on "The Storm", i dont know what it is but when i watched your video I The Tyrant I and comentary i was like this will be easy. Yea, i was wrong, i cant even to the first set of AA wraiths. My Marines keep running in and dieing right away, i try to set the warthog up in a nice place but i dont know what im doing wrong?!

I go throgh and wipe out all but some Jackles and a Brute and they always seem to destroy my Marines. Im on, i think my 29th try right now. The enemys A.I seems to be way too good and my A.I Marines are dumb. Sometimes they wont even move, even when in the warthog and then ofcourse the Brute jumps into the Ghost and wipe me out.

What can i do? i watched the video and my A.I wont do what yours did. I consider myself to be a hell of a player but whatever. I still want to try and become a Mythic Qonquerer but i dont know if i can get past this one.

Which video were you watching? Did you try 2.0?

You won't get it the first time every time. A lot of what happens in the first lake bed revolves around timing. If you're a few seconds behind, you might not make it. Can you even manage to take over the Wraith?

  • 06.17.2009 7:01 AM PDT

Alright i can ge into the Wraith and destroy the AA Wraith but i just can take out those banshees, and i forget the bubble shield as well. No i have not looked at the 2.0 yet, let me check that out.

You shouldn't even need to worry about the Banshees. They blow up automatically when you get close enough to your exit.

Do they really blow up..lol..damn then i almost got it then. The 2.0 works a lot better for me getting past the the first fight, i can almost get it everytime. Now i have to shoot that damn Brute when i get out of the warthog, got it once but then i had trouble with those banshees, but now i know i should just get close to the exit so i dont have to worry about them.

Well, im going to leave The Storm alone for today and pick it back up tomarrow so maybe i'll have more luck, by the way how do you shoot that Brute so well with the Charge pistol in the first lake bed?

When he sees you initially, he'll usually start pointing and ranting for about a second or so. Use that opportunity to blast him with an overcharged shot since he won't break from the animation to dodge. If you can't get him within two tries, forget him temporarily and rush the Wraith. If you wait too long, the Wraith will get their and make things vastly more difficult for you. The Wraith is a key element here. Once you're in it, you can blast your way through the first lakebed. Remember to hang back near the door, and the Banshees shouldn't bother you.

  • 06.17.2009 9:22 AM PDT

Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough.

Yeah, basically from my experiences, if you take the brute down, the marines there will generally win the fight. Sometimes they seem to lose, and a few grunts make their way towards the wraith. Just make sure you keep an eye out for them, otherwise they'll stick you.

I managed to make it to the wraiths on Tsavo Highway, unfortunately a chopper decided I was more interesting than the warthog. That's what I get for playing with vibration off.

Anyway, do I just have to constantly watch my back or did I do something wrong?

I usually keep an eye out just to be on the safe side. You never know when that gap will be between Warthogs, so just keep watch just to make sure.

I could just imagine a person doing Mythic Difficulty Ark in under 45 minutes (which is totally possible now :) )
Yeah that is weird, one day it takes you 2 hours, the next day you can sprint through it like a cat.


Yeah, i was checking out Pahat's File Share today just to see if he'd been keeping anything quiet. He had.
The Ark in roughly 24 minutes.
Tsavo highway in 3:56

You get the general idea. Although Dark will be amused to see that Pahat used the method found in the video Dark showcased and learned form the other day. It's like he uses all this stuff without even thanking the guys who search for the crazy techniques he improves on. Still impressive though.

Oh and with a little luck, I should hopefully be a Conqueror by the weekend. I've practiced skipping the War Chieftain and how to deal with him on the return if I don't have any invis devices. It seems that there's a sweet spot at the bottom corners of the glitched door which absorbs you grenades and bullets but not the Chieftain's weaponry. through this sweet spot you can roll grenades, just use one to shock him (he dives because of Tough Luck) then dash in and assassinate him before moving on. Of course it's much easier with a Cloaking as you can just jump him and begone, but I feel confident that should I hit a snag I can deal with him. :-)

By then I'll be able to focus on the Halo challenge. W00t!

I've learnt to not be surprised by Pahats methods / times anymore. If he comes out with 11 minutes on Sierra 117 I'd not be surprised

I think we're putting it on hold for a while. At least, that's how I understand this message:

lol. Awesomesauce. And I left you a reply in the Mythic thread too, though it looks as if we might have to put Tri-Mythic on hold until things with the contest start slowing down. It's been crazy trying to keep up :-P


Hopefully "slowing down" means harder missions that there can be less entries for.

There's no reason anymore, it's just hopeless to compete with that guy, you know what would surprise me, it would be if Pahat beat Sierra 117 in 11 minutes and not 10.

Agreed Gazas.
I just cannot wait untill ODST arrives, I'll be racing to complete that on Mythic and grab that second spot. Don't even try for first, Pahat may aswell already reserve it. And Firefight mode will be amazing.

For now, may aswell just focus on beating my own times.
