When the dust settles, you will learn what true terror is.

It's not a race, man. Just being ON the list should be reward enough, I know it is for me anyway. Keep at it and maybe you'll be 31. =)

On a separate note. I made up an alternate "desperation" strategy for the Plasma Turret Chieftain on The Ark. Basically, I brought a Carbine AND a BR with me (Carbine from the very beginning of the level). I PPed his shields, and unloaded the full Carbine into his head (couldn't get the helmet off though. >.<) I then did the same with the BR (again, his helmet stayed on). Now out of headshot-inducing ammo, I proceeded to pick up the brute shots and grenades I could find and unloaded everything on him. Still wouldn't die. Finally, being completely desperate and out of ammo with everything but the 4 or 5 Plasma Pistols lying around, I threw one last spike grenade which landed on the ground underneath the bastard. For whatever reason he didn't dodge, and when it exploded he died. I immediately performed celebratory crouching to commemorate my scrape-by victory then proceeded to totally own the rest of the level. Check the film if you don't mind watching an hour and 45 minutes of playtime. =P

Hi

Posted by: General Khazard
It wasn't about the Recon for me. Sure, it'd be nice to get it and have it actually MEAN something, but I've been wanting to tackle this game on Solo Mythic for a long time. The SMRC just gave me that little bit of incentive to actually get started, and it helped having a lot of people working on the same thing at the same time I was to talk to.
It was the same thing with me. I actually came across this thread a very long time ago, looked at it for a minute and thought this was crazy. Yet I always wanted to try, as I've always loved to play the Halo campaign on legendary in the Halo CE and Halo 2 years. I still do love to play campaign, but not as much anymore as I got LIVE when Halo 3 came around.

Anyhoo, back from my mythic break. The Ark is going down. And congrats to all the new conquerors! A lot of people have become mythic conquerors in such a short timespan!

Mythic is awsome. Recon or not. I did it for the challenge. I am alreayd the highest rank possible, and was bored with the multiplayer. Then I found Mythic. Hours upon hours of fun. Glad to see so many new conquerors as well. Congratulatiuons guys, I now seem to be one of the older Mythic players, when really it has only been a month. =)
When ODST comes, we shall all work to conquer it, as a team. =)

You bet. I can't wait to do ODST on Mythic.
And yeah, there's loads of conquerors now. Expect more.

ODST Mythic is going DOWN!

I have to say that I envy your 50 in MP, every time I hit 46 in a playlist I can't go higher. Even if I don't lose at all, it just stops at 46. I'm not bad, as I've trounced my fair share of generals before, but the system hates me.

I feel ya man. I'm 46 in Doubles, Lone Wolves and Living Dead. Can't get higher. Although, I don't really care for MM anymore. Campaign is where its at.

Cannot wait for ODST either, I feel like screaming.

Mythic is awesome but never would I have thought that even Halo 3 on Mythic would get a little repetitive sooner or later.

I would still like to reach 50 at some point, because I know I CAN do it. The only problem is that I can't find people who are good enough and dedicated enough to stick to it with me. I would just go Lone Wolves, but I'm a team player and do much better in that environment, and it's hard to jump in at whatever level I'm at (lost a couple since I hit 46) and be able to keep up right away. Need some warming up first, and Social just isn't competitive enough to warm me up properly.

A challenge means controller throwing, overweighting and socks heating during playing. This is something Halo 3 didn't offer at all and I'm sure as hell that ODST won't either.

Nothing is worthy of controller throwing. I've never met a game that was too hard and made me give up (yet). Halo 3 Mythic was very difficult, but I knew it was possible so thats what kept me going.
But hey, I don't play many games, and once I start I have enough determination to see me through anything.

Why do you come in from nowhere every time to act like Halo 3 is something that even 3 year olds can do on Mythic? No offense man but really...

Even Halo 3 is hard for most people. Don't compare yourself to the games as you seem to be able to complete whatever a game developer can cough up. I'd like to hear what game is actually challenging to you.

I'm not disagreeing or looking down on you but you said almost the exact thing shortly after the ODST Teaser was out.

My Xbox broke down, probably due to a faulty heatsink, so I won't be able to crush your current Cortana SLASO record for at least a month.

You want a challenge? I challenge you to beat what my new Cortana SLASO run was going to be, about 7:33-7:38. I'll even tell you how I was going to do it: straight through the Hive in 12 seconds, hammer before reactor I, hammer to cortana so well that you skip the second cutscene, plow through reactor II in 44 seconds, and brute shot/ grenade up the hole to the projector room. I almost pulled it off last night, then started playing MM and my box froze, and now it won't start.

I want you to do it because I know it can be done. Whether it is you or me is not my concern; I just want the community to have the fastest SLASO times possible, especially if we can break the current Legendary, Heroic, and Normal run times.

I think you mean "CLASO" then as the first S in "SLASO" means "Solo"... Regardless I'm up for it. Time zone is central, GT: Sangheilioz

people seem to have a lot of trouble with the turret chieftain. He is one of the easiest parts for me. Also, at General, your method seems somewhat pointless. A simple plasma overcharge followed by 6 BR bursts would remove his head dress. =P
