I just noticed something...

My original Crow's Nest film is in the process of being rendered. How is this possible? I thought there was a cap of 10 minutes???


Epic luck maybe?

Okay, I am at the brute cheftain but the box/machine to jump on got knocked over. I have a bubble what do I do?

If you got your Warthog still alive, drive it up where that one jumping platform once was, hop out, drop your bubble shield, and run out of there.

One question. do I have to finish the whole campaign on mythic difficulty to have a chance to win anything?


Nope, each level you complete, as long as it is in the right time frame, will throw you into a raffle with a chance of winning Recon.

This week it's "The Storm", so if you beat that on Mythic, you basically get a raffle ticket.

Winsauce? Maybe the cap got removed since they're approaching the final stages of the beta. Not sure how you can have enough render points to render a full Mythic mission though. It might not render fully if at all and could just be a bug. If it does render however it will be great and you could probably stick a link at the bottom of the Crow's Nest page on the Walkthrough.

D3athSfriend is right...I am sorry, i will just do the campaign for fun, and for the achievement.


I am sorry to all the people i offended, Tyrant, MatCLAN, gazas, and anyone else....Tyrant I am personally sorry for not trusting the system...You just sort of pissed me off when you said I hadn't read the rules when I had. MatCLAN I don't know who you are, and I don't want to, I just know you beat Mythic Campaign, not really apologizing to you cuz I didn't do nothing to you. And last but not least, gazas...I already apologized to you...just check your inbox.


Theres no need in that. Im sure people will accept your apologies but to let it get this far in the first place is ridiculous. You should respect Tyrant, Gazas and MATCLAN as they no what they are doing. They have done the impossible. Imagine all of the hours Tyrant has put into this. He isnt getting anything for it. He is doing it because he is a very nice person. He helped me alot while trying the Storm today and I beleive you should show some respect.

Right. With that said its time to get back on topic.

I nearly completed the storm again today. I have died at the Scarab about 10 times. ;-(
I had cleared the Scarab. All enemies obliterated by my Sp4nkr. I went round the corner, ready to shoot the engine core.... and I slipped off the side of the damn thing. It pegged me instantly with its main gun. ;-( I was very dissapointed. Oh well though, Ill finish it tommorow.(I hope) ;-)

Man The Storm took a while, but I finally completed it. Submitted it just now. Tsavo will be a lot easier. I died from everything there is possible to die from on The Storm.


I died by a banshee coming into the facility.
I died by a random explosion while on the crane.
Did you do that?

Lol. It might have been a Brute shot. That happened to me today. The brute on the Scarab managed to hit me with a Brute shot somehow.

How many people have entered the the storm raffle?

Alot less probably, judging by the amount of 'I give up' posts, I'd say about half the amount of Halo. I haven't tried it yet myself, I'll leave it a little until I feel like I can actually play something like mythic.

I've not entered yet; the level seems to hate me atm, both the marines and the Scarab are being particularly...unco-operative shall we say.
I'm sure I can do it, but being in a party with 4 other guys all with slightly dfferent threads of conversation while only trying half heartedly doesn't really do your concentration any good. :-P

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

HEY! lol no one answered my question after i complete the challenge where do i enter it at?


Send Tyrant a PM of the film.



oh how do i do that? through his BNET profile?


Yes, you clicky on Tyrants name then do send user message, then hyperlink like a pro.

Oh and since I am being nice now (^_^), and everyone else is...I needzz some helpzz....I can get to the scarab then i don't know what to do...I am trying to beat the campaign without watching anyones walkthrough or reading any walkthrough...but this is stumping me. I take out the AA Wraiths and get up to the catwalk, but then when i jump on i die. I thought about using a missile pod, and when i did the scarab pooped on me...So i jumped back on again, got to the core ( I ran for it) and then somehow after it blows up a brute survived and killed me...I don't think this mission likes me.


The Scarab is the toughest part of the mission. Always go for the crane on the left and make sure you're armed with a BR, Plasma Pistol, and stickies. The Scarab will always venture over to your crane and get close enough for you to jump on. But if you wait too long, it will position itself so it can back up if you try to jump on. I still say you should watch 2.0 for a quick lesson on how to defeat the Scarab.

I actually found the scarab easy the parts leading up to it were harder for me.

Alright, I will try that, and if i fail, i will watch your vid. I have an idea on what i will do after that...I will arm the Arbiter with a rocket launcher, then once i get to the big ol' gun thingy, big anti-air gun, then i will hop on the turret and pick off the core...I tried it on legendary and it worked, so i was pretty happy, or i could just bum rush with a plasma pistol cuz that works too...but if all fails i will download your vid or gazas or someone else...maybe Pahat Pojat.

Grazie...(Thank You in Italian if you didn't know)

Every time I die, I quit and restart the entire level. I don't want to waste Tyrant's time with an hour of different tries.

I don't think you're allowed to die at all, otherwise it wouldn't be Mythic Difficulty.

Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough.

Basically, Iron will reset the game, along with the stats, for you, but the film will include all failures from that gaming session. I generally like to reset, but sometimes I get lazy and don't figure I'll beat the level anyway.. That's usually when I do. Anyway, I believe Tyrant said he doesn't care whether or not you let Iron do it for you, or you manually do it, it just looks neater if you do it.

I thought Iron skull reset checkpoints, but now I know it's different for Single Player.

Oh, well. Then that's different, I get it now.

Have you checked with urk? He might have been able to put someone onto it.
Full renders are awesome though. It could even be an extension of the testing, just to put the system through its paces with long films.

Hey Tyrant,

I have a bit of a problem here. I hope you can help me out with it with some advice.

I finished The Storm on Mythic. I saved the film. I edited the name and description. The film is as long as its supposed to be (no glitch or offline time cut out). I was online all the time while I played. (in Busy mode) I had FFA campaign scoring on. I had all skulls on.

Now comes the problem: I cant view post game stats when I select view game in my file share! Seeing as these stats are half the evidence of what I did. (Video is the other half.) Should I redo the level to make sure the post game stats are viewable by everyone.
Does this film count?
http://www.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3f ileid=83937173
Is the film useless for my entry in the competition?

If anyone else knows of this problem please reply.

Thank you very much and good luck completing Mythic to all!

I had the same problem last week with Halo. The site seems to be a bit iffy with stats at the moment and they are needed for a successful entry so you'll have to redo it because just watching the video doesn't prove that all skulls are active; there is no real way to prove that Iron is on just from the film.
