I've found a new level of frustration. 57 minutes into The Storm, I reached the end. 2 enemies left. Brute with a Fuel Rod and another with Brute Shot. I died. :(

I'm going to do it again tonight. Just having a break.

This is going to frustrate you even more...

You didn't have to kill them. Just rip off the turret, make sure the Grunts aren't throwing nades at you, and start pegging the AA gun. Destroying the gun will trigger the cutscene.

So what ended up being your anti-scarab method?

Oh..my..god.. >_<

Scarab method. Just hid till most of the enemies were killed on it. Went up onto the Crane. Stuck the first Brute. Plasma Pistol + BR'd the 2nd Brute. Killed the scarab. Ran to next area and i had a Plasma Pistol for it. I was 100% prepared. :)

Now you see why The Storm was #3 on my list.

The Storm isnt that "hard"
Its just long, so if you die at the end (like I did) its really annoying.
But Hunters + Scarab on the same level is annoying. The Hunters were quite easy. I just used Arbiter as a meat shield. But, i had no idea what to expect after the Hunters on SLASO. So I was kinda guessing what was coming up next. I now know what to expect. So if im lucky I should complete it later today.

Loose talk is noose talk.

I am trying SLASO. It is fracking hard.

Brute: o hai
Me: Imma snipe ur azz
Grunt that I forgot to kill: I stuck his ass!
Me: Oh shi- And then, I must restart the 2 hour mission all over again.

Now let me tell you a story.

I had reached the final area of Sierra 117. I had just run out of BR ammo, but the snipers were down, so I didn't feel too bad about that. Arbiter had whipped out his sword and was tearing up the place. All the baddies in the frontwards area were down. All that were left were the ones on the bridge and the other group across the dam. Suddenly, the Chieftain berserks and kills a few of his buddies in addition to the Arbiter. Then he started coming for me...

ZOMG!!!

I had nothing to stop him with at the time, so I desperately tried to find a place to hide. I backtracked to the starting area and the Chieftain approached, roaring away. I jumped and he swung... STILL ALIVE! I was launched over him and landed just fine... but I still needed a place to hide. So I booked it to the underpass (*facepalm*) hoping to lose him. He came after me anyway and it was then that I realized I was trapped. Refusing to give up, I made a mad dash to the other side. A Grunt caught sight of me and tossed a plasma and tagged another Grunt. BOOM! ...STILL ALIVE! I couldn't believe it at this point. It was truly destiny! I raced to try to find some cover. Then suddenly, a Brute unloaded his Brute Shot on me and finished the job.

Next thing I know, Johnson is telling me to head to the river for evac...

yep that's pretty typical. but it does force you to be more tactical.

Having a hour break.

God damn Hunters! I reached the Hunter area again. And Arbiter died in a corner and he wouldn't respawn. And the Hunters killed me.

Well, it looks like the seventh time is the charm (weird, huh?) After six failed Warthog runs at the end of Halo, I finally completed it today.

Two down... seven to go... 0.0

Any suggestions on which level I should try next (other than Floodgate and Halo)?

Everyone here agrees that Floodgate and Halo are the two easiest and The Ark is the hardest. Aside from that it depends on who you ask. The Storm is generally the easiest after the first two, then either Sierra 117 or Tsavo Highway.

I personally found Tsavo Highway easier than The Storm. (I haven't actually completed The Storm yet).

Its possible to skip quite a lot of Tsavo Highway. But with The Storm, you have to do it all. And The Storm is longer, which makes it more annoying if you die at the end.

Ok guys I need some help here. I'm currently doing The Storm. I just downed the Hunters. But Arbiter is in a corner and not moving. And everytime I move him, he goes back to the corner. Anyone know how to get him back in action? I don't wanna reset the level when I've reached this far.
Its paused at the moment. All the marines are dead. Its just me and the Arbiter.

You're pretty close to the end. You could try killing him once and see if that works. If not, then there's a sniper rifle in one of the rooms on the left, you can use it to kill some of the grunts and jackals. After that you'll just have to plasma pistol/BR the Brutes.

Ok, I'll try that. I really don't want to die. But I've already killed the Arbiter and he didn't move.

God damn it. I managed to kill 3 Brutes. But the Grav Hammer Brute chased me with his Invincibilty on. I was screwed. Then thing i saw, I was in a Passenger Seat of a Warthog.

That's gotta suck. You can usually just jump right over top of them without them hammering you. It takes a plasma pistol and about 6-10 BR headshots to kill him.

SLASO, haven't completed
