So, i just played a Lone wolves on The pit (2009-02-26, 12:27 PST), i scored a tripple kill with a energy sword and i only got the tripple kill achivement.. Realy bugs me that i didnt get the steppin' razor one since that was what i was going for. I have saved the entire match replay on my harddrive and a short clip showing the tripple kill with the Sword in my fileshare.

So if you have already surpassed those milestones on a global level but never earned them, you can do it again by earning a 50 EXP level in a specific playlist.


I went directly from Gunnerry Sgt (Grade 2) to Lieutenent (Grade 2).

DAMN. Now i gotta double my exp in team slayer...

So im guessing that the 3 other skulls not on the mythic DLC are ODST maps? Because the vidmaster states "all MYTHIC skulls".

  • 02.27.2009 4:41 AM PDT

The body should be safe, the Shoulders sometimes go on and off until you get Lieutenant I think, occasionally for one life or two online you'll be reverted back to normal SPARTAN armour. Oh and yeah lol I have 47 of the achievements, got like 7 with Mythic, so If I get 2 more(I have a H3 gamerscore of 1115 btw) I should get Katana and Security Helm? because I don't right now :P

So here is one for you to ponder, I'm sure it has been mentioned before, so I hope for a quick response/resolution.

I have completed the Campaign on Normal solo and Legendary Co-op. The problem is that my Bungie.Net profile on the website shows that I have completed it on Legendary, but my ingame profile still shows that I have only beat it on Normal, however my buddy that I beat it on Legendary with shows Legendary on both online and in game, and he has only beaten the Campaign on Normal solo as well.

Any ideas as to how I can get my ingame profile to display that I have beaten the game on legendary?

Thanks in advance, or, and add me to the long list of people who have unlicked the security shoulders, and then have them relock right away ... big bummer. lol

Can some one give us a list of the 49 original achievements? I have 49 achievements (not all original) and 1125 gamerscore....but still no katana or security helmet :(. Also I just got the spartan officer achievement but it doesn't show on LIVE lol. I read the paragraph about that on the front page but I don't get exactly what he's saying.

I just downloaded the mythic map packs, played a game and lost my security helmet and Katana. I have 49 halo 3 achievements and a total of 1175 gamerscore in halo 3.
I've unlocked 4 new achievements and they only come back for a second, then they disappear again.

-Sigh- Is the only way to get them back, unlock all the original halo 3 achievements?

Yes, the only way to re-unlock them is to go and do some original achievements, and don't worry they are actually very easy.

  • 02.27.2009 12:22 PM PDT

I have had the Security helmet and the Katana quite happily for about a week. I have not completed all of the original achievments, but intead I have relied upon the high-scoring ledgendary achievments to get enough gamerscore on halo 3 to get the armour and katana. But today, I collected the skulls in the mythic maps, Orbital, Sandbox and Assembly and when it came to changing how I looked, i changed the security helmet, and suddenly by Katana disapeared. Then the katana did not register as a piece of armour, instead of 7/7 chest pieces including the katana, I now only have 6/6, the Katana obviously not included. The Security Helmet has relocked itself also. I understand that it would be a good idea to get the original achievements to unlock them again, but does anybody have any experience in this? I am wondering If one more achievment wil unlock them again, I do not know whether it would matter if it was an original, ledgendary or mythic achievment. It would be glad if somebody could answer this question "Posthaste" because I really find this interesting. Also, if anyone who can help with this wants my help in ANY WAY I can, I will gladly help.

------ If anyone wants a way to the sandbox skull, the map is on my fileshare. It is sandbox 1. Just follow the wal path into the desert and you will find the skull.

Please Help.

MLGPro.com is the place to be!

Hey the title to this thread includes missing an other unlockable item?... which technically includes the mythic map pack, so...I was wondering if a code could be tossed around in this thread somewhere...

How exactly are we supposed to get the Two for One and Look Both Ways achievements.

  • 02.27.2009 6:02 PM PDT

Look Both Ways is fairly easy, you just have to be patient, and Two for One you have to be very luckey and have perfect timing so if you dont think your luckey then you could just ask the people in the current game if they would like to help.

I was one of the other people in that game; none of us got the achievement. I have the film saved, which can prove that we did all finish on ghosts. Is there any chance at all that this can be fixed, as I regard it as a bug in the game?

You need to have the Iron Skull enabled (although I'm not sure if you only need Iron enabled). Just do it again but ONLY turn on the Iron Skull.

i am a 21 captain grade 1 and i have the pin for the spartan officer achievement but i dont have the achievement (the gamerscore) and xbox customor support said that my bungie live account does not show my achieve PLEASE RESPOND

  • 02.28.2009 11:20 AM PDT

A similar problem happened to me with the annual. I didn't watch the clip, but were any of you dead as one person finished or had your ghost flipped at the end? When I did it, a platform exploded under me and flipped the ghost so I was not in it when my friend finished. Just do it again :(

One thing I've noticed lately is that in some games of MM my armor will reset to the default, and when I edit my appearance it still shows that I have everything. Is there some way to solve this?

Its Just a glitch. Open the menu to edit your armor and it should automatically reset to whatever you had it as before.
