Congrats.
My last achievement was Mongoose Mowdown (thanks to Legendary Brawl, one of my favorite gametypes ever, but a couple smaller maps for more carnageplease).
I still need quite a few, but I've gotten all of them legit so far. I got overkill on Dec. 21.
I got Two for One with the laser during Halloween's zombiefest.

Hah, niiice.

Persistance is a happy and worthwhile thing :D you gotta love the way your body sits after you die in that clip xD

My last achievement was the Killing Frenzy actually.

Frday, November 9th 2007...I may not have won and I didn't keep the Saved Film sadly, but I've still got my hilarious Two For One, during the 31st October's "Halo"ween playlist.

Not as hilarious as Ash55's...but it'll do ;)

Please don't send me PMs about your Bungie group. I don't care.

I hear you BTW, Kat is the worst AI I have ever had in my turret. The Elite who hi-jacked her was better!

Congrats to ya Luke.

I guess my armor would be stained then. Beause I ran into a random group of guys in match making who were all about just playing for acheivements. But then again I could careless if people consider it stained or not. A LOT of people did it in the beging and it was only after the achievement hunting was coming to an end was when it started to considered tainted, or cheating to get your armor.

That being said Luke actaully did it better than ANYONE else because he works at Bungie. He could have easly had an account set up from the beging with all the armors unlocked. Then again he really had nothing to prove, at least to the general public, because he has Recon armor. Which I still dont see the big deal with that armor. I mean if I had it I would use it, but why people beg for it is beyond me.

Congrats again Luke.

Great job. I actually got and overkill in a king of the hill match on snowbond. that was one of the hard one's. But my lat achivement was Mongoose Mowdown , yes yes i know its easy to get for some. but it hard to do it when you have maps that dont have a mongoose. its funny how i got mine.

The story goes like this. I was tires of not getting it, so i began my search for an xbox buddy that would help me get it. So i finally get high ground with a mongoose. So i get my buddy ready to take one for my team...lol.

so magically i spawn at the beach with him next to the mongoose, and i tell him before hand to meet at the beach..so i run to the beast a.k.a mongoose and i ride to the top of the hill near the gate. so im rolling down hill aiming for his backside..and as im getting closer and im tasting the sweet flavor of achivementnesss.. As im inches away and i see glory in the face. My aparment building has a blackout. My screen goes black and im speech less and i run out to the back of the building to turn my power back on....

later on i got the same map and i found a new buddy to take one for the team, and i reached sparta..and that was the end to a trajic story for my last achivement..

I tip my hat of to you on getting that last achivement. its wonderful isnt it?

Congrats to you.

My last achievements were the Meta-games for the last four missions. Four Lone Wolves achievements stand between me and my beautiful Marathon helmet: Overkill, Steppin' Razor, Two for One, and Mongoose Mowdown.

I can never find an FFA with swords, KoTH, or Oddball for Razor. The Two for One is a bit hard for me to get, seeing as I can never find two people near enough for a double. Mowdown....I'd have it by now if it weren't for the whole "Lone Wolves only" clause, I can only manage to slam into them and drain their shields, no matter how much I've tried. Overkill...*sigh*...it's just so friggin' annoying. I'm all "I has me a triple killz! 0ne moar for teh overkilllz!!!11!" *Dies* "Sad face"

Congrats on getting it legit, you should be proud of yourself for that, it's pretty hard.

My last acheivement was Two for One which was aggravtingtly ridiculous to get. Of course it was legit, it was on snowbound on the outside of the shiedl door lookin into the cave of doom. If you watch the video of it it actually looks like I don't go past the door enough but I got it : ) Suicide message shortly after but I still got it LOL.

Anyway my Overkill was a little tough to get but I also got it on Snowbound in a KOTH match I grabbed the shotgun (I miss the shotgun on Snowbound ...Stupid HC) and threw down a bubble shield on the hill where the on 1 of the top of the bases and surprise it was like shooting ducks in a bath tub.

By the way Mongoose Mowdown sucked to get also, it's kinda hard to splatter commanders and up with a freakin mongoose everyone does have a jump button you know!

  • 06.05.2008 4:23 AM PDT

I got all of my achievements legit except for maybe next time buddy. My friend and I went in to Rumble Pit and did it. I probably could of done it if I tried, but oh well.

My last achievement was the 2 for 1. It took me two days of trying, and I finally got it on High ground. You better believe I saved it.

  • 06.05.2008 5:01 AM PDT

My signature changes too often!

I actually have to say, I actually boosted for my 2 for 1 and my Mongoose Mowdown :(

So, I'm trying to make up for it, by "re-achieving" them. So far, I've mowed down somebody with the Mongoose legit (In the narrow passage on Sandtrap), and I'm working on the 2 for 1, too :)

Rifles are best... But I've worked with sticks before.

Actually, for me, I got all of the multiplayer achievments before getting any of the MetaGame Score acheivements. Why? I'm glad you asked...

The first weekend after I bought Halo 3, my friend came into town and we spent 12 hours playing straight through Legendary. The next day or so I spent finishing up the campeign for the second time on my own on Heroic -- just to do it non-coop.

Then the bad news started happening... I needed to play through the levels comepletely in order to get the Skulls.... "Ok, not that big of a deal" I said. I played through single player again. Once i found all the skulls, I then proceeded to work on getting all of my MP achievements -- which obviously takes the longest. After finally getting that blasted two-for-one with the laser on a KOTH match on snowbound, I went back to the internetz to see which acheivments i was missing. Turns out that there was an achievment called Marathon Man. OH ok, what's that One?! Turns out I had to play through all the single player levels again.

So finally after completing that, I decided that if i ever needed to defeat the two scarabs again on my own, I would throw my 360 out the window and run it over a few times with my car.

But wait, theres more! it said... You get to play through all the single player levels again! To get the meta game scores! yay! lol....

My Lieutenant was actually my last achievement, so i got mine all pretty early. About One month into the game.

WTG Luke, I knew you had it in you, now just get that 50...

I got my overkill on the first Legendary Brawl playlist. It was on Mosh King on Standoff. Unfortunately, I was too excited to remember to save the game...

  • 06.05.2008 5:24 AM PDT

It took me some time and some frustration to get it but i eventually got the overkill in a guardian match with only four others in it :D...That was a good bit of luck for me lol.

XBL Gamertag - bigsteve100

My last series of achievements were the metagame achievements in the campaign. I have one left and that's the Killing Frenzy. I've been lazy. Someday I'll get it.. I've been pretty close, but I haven't been on Lone Wolves in a while.

PS: Congrats, Luke

Congrats man!!
I got my last one back in February (a very long night I might add) all without help. By no means am I a good player ill probably never get over a major
Call me a jerk if you want but every time I go into a FFA play list and here a bunch of people asking for help and then banding together to do so. it furthers my resolve to wipe them all out. I usually get a bad review for it but it was worth it for a chance to fire a rocket into a crowd of 6-10 player huddled together

Anyways just wanted to know if you plan to run around with the katana on?

I've gotten all of the achievements twice (after my brother destroyed the sigma on my first account I made another in hopes of attaining level 50). The first time I had help (Mongoose Mowdown, Maybe Next Time Buddy, Overkill, Two for One, etc), the second time I did legit. I managed to get Triple Kill, Steppin' Razor, and Overkill in the same game. Thanks for swords!

It's not the hardest thing to do, and most of the time it all boils down to luck. Congrats on finally getting your Aviators.

Sadly, I no longer wear any of the armor permutations except the Scout shoulders. Most of them are too big and bulky and result in me being an easier target. :/

"Billtac just got a Killtac!"

Gratz Luke.

I will share my story of my overkill:
One day I woke up late because i didn't have to go to school due to having a doctors appointment. I had about 20 minute before I had to leave for the doctors, so I sat down and got on Halo 3. At the time I was working my rank up in Lone Wolves and went into a game of Swords.

Played the game as normal. Then, out of nowhere, I got a Killtrocity (which unlocked my Overkill achievement.) I was so excited, and now it is in my file share.

But to be honest, my Katana and Security Helm are not fully legit.
I Boosted the "2 for 1" and "maybe next time buddy" in on game on snowbound. I wasn't going to but everyone else was, so I figured why not?
Other then that I got everything else legit, you know except for looking up skull locations online.
