I respect your opinion, I just think its stupid.

Also... My highest is team melee which is 45 but that isn't a playlist anymore so how would I get EXP in that?

I have over 1000 GS but i dont have the Katana so does that mean i have to get the 49 0riginal achievement cuz i rly dontwant to get a double Splazer kill
You may not need to obtain all of the original achievements, but you are, for the most part, guaranteed to unlock the Security helmet and Katana if you do. For now, I would suggest completing the meta game achievements and see where that takes you.

You have 28 EXP already in Lone Wolves, so I would recommend finishing that one up as you will only need to earn 22 more EXP in it.

Sorry, man. The achievement required for the Scout shoulders is "Mongoose Mowdown", not "We're in for some Chop".

Fellas and ladies, any ideas to why i dont have my graduate achievement? i have 1240 of 1250 points currently possible(USA mythic isnt out until 3rd) and ideas on what to do or even WTF is goin on?


I have the same problem, but sadly Bungie has not fixed this glitch in the year and 7 months that Halo 3 has been out.

EDIT: I also found it funny that I received an "autoresponder" from a Bungie employee a day after I had messaged him/her about the Graduate Achievement glitch. That message looked like this:

Dear Reader, The combination of the constraints placed on me by Earth's 24-hour rotation and the sheer volume of messages I receive make it unlikely that I will read and even less likely that I will be able to respond to your private message. Do not take this abrupt news personally. Love, -Anonymous.

When I said funny, I did not mean that I found the contents of the message to be funny. By funny, I meant that it is funny to see Bungie making a joke about the myriad of problems with Halo 3.

Two options. Not sure which one.
A. Did you beat all the levels while connected to Xbox Live? Beat them all while connected to XBL I believe.
or
B. did you do arrival? Do that too.

Intolerance is the highest level of stupidity and inbred thinking.

I never received the graduate achievement, it gave me the pin but never the achievement.
Is there any way this can be corrected?

  • 03.02.2009 8:47 PM PDT

For halo3 i Gotten more than 1000gamerscore And 50 achievements

But there a couple achievements i havent gotten like Two for one ( Which is Impossible ) , Killing Frenzy ( Only If your lucky) , And Some Campaign Achievements like those meta-game ones but im confused i should have the armor also i got a weird glitch and i found out how to fix it if you like to know

I have the same problem. Sadly, Bungie refuses to fix this glitch, much less acknowledge that the glitch exists.

Correctomundo.

The reason you do not have the Spartan Officer pin is because you have not yet reached a highest skill of 10. Judging by your recent games, I'm assuming Lone Wolves is your highest skill. Just win a few more games in it to reach level 10 and you should receive the pin on your service record.

Yep, just unlock a few more achievements preferably original ones. My suggestion would be to shoot for the meta game achievements. Here is a decent guide if you experience any trouble.

Are you sure you don't have the Blind skull enabled? While in the campaign lobby, press X, move over to the Blind skull and disable it if it is enabled.

Best of luck everyone! ; )

keep driving your mongoose around like a maniac
lol!
Thats what i did, I just kept driving in a circle, in and out of battles, plus honking the horn to lure people outside and I hit someone...

it was easier when I did that

or you could just get lucky and there will be a willing player that will give you the kill...

anyone have any other tips?

My bad for double post...

anyways I got over 1000 GS on Halo 3 and it still didn't get my Security helmet and Katana, so I followed a tip I learned and got another achievement and it unlocked it for me.

Problem is, is that my armor locks itself when i disconnect Live. I tried getting a few more achievements and it unlocked it but when I set as my armor, it refreshes and it locks itself. I'm going to try the 49 OA and see if it fixes it. So far only happens without Live. and started when I got Alas, poor Yorick in another language.

So anyways, here's my story

I found all of the terminals in the campaign, and got the marathon man achievement, but I don't have the helmet permutation.
I hit the final terminal offline but the helmet doesn't show up when I change my armor.

any ideas?
