Question: If I havent done the previous mythic challenges, can I still do Tsavo Highway?
You can do any of the levels as long as they're played when their week is up. But if you do every single mission throughout the weeks then you'll be thrown into the bonus raffle.

I decided to give Mythic a lot and now I am bad at legendary again because I am now used to BLACK EYE skull. I melee and think why wont my shields go up?


I have exactly the same problem. Pretty annoying if you ask me:p
I am currently having some problems with sniping with the blind skull turned on. For some reason I always aim just an inch to low for it to hit. Then I readjust a little bit upwards but the knockback from the first shot also made me shoot a bit more upwards. I've recently begun wondering weither the aim thingy of the sniper rifles is exactly in the middle. I think not from my recent experiences. Can anyone shed light upon this?

When you zoom in with the Sniper, the redicule will move, I don't know if it's upwards or downwards and it's not much of a change, but it could be the problem, for instance, if you have put a marker on your screen, not saying that you have.

I'm 99% sure the Beam Rifle doesn't always go where you shoot. I shot three shots in the exact same spot and they all went slightly different places. The first went over the jackels head, the second hit his chest and the third hit his head. Thats why I kamikazed, took me too much ammo to kill the damn jackals.

I just read a few previous posts which mentioned The Storm challenge ends Thursday...!?!? I thought it was Friday? I guess I'm out of time for the competition now then? Also Tyrant, would you mind replying on the actual Mythic Challenge question thread pleeeeaase? You've been absent from it for a while now.

If I'm out of the The Storm competition I think I'll forget about it for now, but I definitely want to become a Mythic Conqueror soon, so I'll come back and do it after the competitions over. I haven't used any guides too, so I feel extra special. I want to complete it like an original Conqueror would have, no guides, muhahaha.

  • 07.02.2009 1:24 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

So what I had linked wasn't the actual film? Is that what your saying, or am I right.
All I want to know is if I did it wrong, since the contest ends tonight. It would be nice to know.

I'm a great guy really.

Gave up on The Storm, I'd forgotten the reason I was even doing it so after a few failed attempts realising I hardly cared for the recon I just gave up. Probably going to concentrate on Sierra but try Tsavo a couple of times just as it's a different level and easy level to do. I hate The Storm... dying at the scarab from using the faster methods and dying through impatience. Main goal would be to complete Sierra by it's week, at least it's a target, more about doing the level though.

My entry for The Storm is on a slot that requires Bungie Pro,
if i move it to one of the regular six spots will it still count?

  • 07.02.2009 3:22 PM PDT

Crap, I want to give up so badly but i just don't have it in me to quit. I will try and pray that everything goes my way, and i can submit my entry for the Storm by the deadline tonight. Why does Recon taunt me constantly because of my inability to complete Mythic?!?! Well, better get back to trying. See you all on the battlefield.

  • 07.02.2009 3:28 PM PDT

I am of an open mind and I am willing to hear criticism. Also: That's stupid and you're stupid.

Just keep it there, they don't lower it back down to six unless you delete slots 7-24 first. At least keep it there until the winner is decided for The Storm.

Nothing brings back the memories quite so well as rocketing yourself on The Storm. I'm mainly using this post to see if i've still got time to enter XP

EDIT: Little less than 8 hours left. It's on like Donkey Kong!

Hope you guys make it in. I made a rush this noon and forgot to put down SMRC in the message. Good luck to all.

Edit: Man i wish we would have an idea of how many people made entries on each leg of the contest, even though it would be a hassle.

It's 2am and I'm still trying. I've tried on a few separate occasions now - many, many failed attempts. I just got past the Scarab, to the part with the Arbiter. After fighting through the level, struggling to reach that far, I tried to kill Arbiter to give him the Rockets. First time they landed too far away, so he didn't pick them up. I stupidly tried it again. This time: success. He picks up the rocket launcher. I turn around and, to my dismay, I hear the words "frag out", as my previously-allied marines proceed to 'nade me to certain death..

Fail.

Should I throw in the towel yet?.. :\

You have made it that far. From there it is a cakewalk. Keep up the determined work and you will get there in no time.

Why hello there!

How do you know if you won? And when does one week end?

Winners get notified via PM, and the time for submissions ends at 11:59pm PDT every Thursday.

And rock on for Tsavo Highway. I've got a snail's pace to beat so I've got plenty of time to better myself.

Thanks for the kind words, but I really doubt I'll make it. I keep dying in ridiculously unexpected ways, and it's almost 3am. I can't keep this up. There goes any chance of being entered into the bonus contest. :-(

Edit: Just had one last attempt. Got to the Scarab, mounted a missile pod, fired the missile pod.. BAM. It really seemed as though my own missile some how exploded as soon as I fired it, killing me.. I give up!

I just tried the covenant and its a breeze. On my first try, I got all the way to the second tower with ease. I got unlucky and was owned by a wraith. Oh well, two weeks until that one ends.

  • 07.02.2009 7:12 PM PDT

Ha, the same thing happened to me, Zoldberg (despite the fact that I was aware of this glitch from my test runs of the scarab part). I gave up at 7:00 today after 9-10 hours of near non-stop work. What a waste of time. I'm going to just do the storm later in the competition or something. Perhaps after Tsavo, seeing as Tsavo looks a crapload easier than the Storm. Hopefully it won't take me that long.

  • 07.02.2009 8:13 PM PDT

Basically, I make the best topics ever.

Feedback!
Duardo: This thread is locked for being stupid.
cortana 5 : It's perpetually my time of the month and I'm just grouchy.
Foman: I see absolutely no reason, either theoretical or practical, that this is not a superb idea. Excellent work, my friend.

I keep getting to the wraith and then having some random granade blow me up. This sucks.
