Im not complaining ok maby but hey you would too ok i quote this one here "Error: We couldn't verify the Classic achievement. Please, wait 24 hours for the game to appear on Bungie.net. " and over 24 hours later all vidmasters done and no activate button lol its all good i dont really care just wondering why the easyest vidmaster achivement for ODST couldnt verify. and yes this is relavant it is stoping me from activating recon armor.

I am missing the achievement steppin razor, I completed the requirements for it to unlock but it has yet to do so. Here is the link to the game played under the files tab is a vid of me doing what was required but no achievement was unlocked. I have been trying to repeat what i did with no success.

http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsHalo3.aspx?gameid=981297 16&player=Lordofthelagg

If the link is not working there in an unnecessary space between the 7 and the 1 in the game id number that has to be taken out for it to work

I am missing recon because it says i got the deja vu achievement offline even though i have proof that i did it online:http://www.bungie.net/Stats/ODSTg.aspx?gameid=8840694& amp;player=Sudgy

it only says this because it lagged out during the cutscene at the end and everyone else got their achievement online but i didnt because i was host ( i can only assume). I need this sorted out if possible because it is beyond my control to fix it due to it being a bug/glitch. can someone please reply and help me

Goal- Finish Road to recon: In progress

Quick question and hopefully it'll be answered...if not ill find out for my self.

Ok so theres a recon banning list...but that was before you could unlock recon via the road to recon. sooo If your on the banning list for recon, can you still get it?

Please don't jump my case about it being a silly question..although it seems silly it's kinda not if you think about it.

I Realised that I had The Katana and Security helmet at around 46 achievments, 1205 Gs. Well I just got the 'Ghost patol' cheevo and they dissapeared. Im on 49 cheevos now with 1305 GS. I tried clearing my Cache but im using the multiplayer disc which comes with ODST and there is no update. Not sure what to do now.

Ok after reading the above information and troubleshooting for the armour. I had 49 achievements and have 2050G at this point. I had my security and kanata armour not a mere 2 nights ago, and it is gone today. I did 2 more achievements pushing me up to 51 and definitley more then 1000G. Will it unlock itself or am I out of luck?

Thanks

RAZ3R X

Can some1 help??

My Katana unlocked either by itself (no achievements gained and it was there) or I didnt check it for a long while after I got an overkill with a sword in lone wolves.
Perhaps there is a secret way to gain the Katana, as mine has not relocked for more than half a year and I have also gained achievements since then.

Halo: Out with a whimper
A fan made kick ass 2D Halo.

"The crunch on Halo 2 was, 'Oh my god, we're f***ed. We're all going to die.'" ~ Chris Carney

I have an odd problem, sometimes my armor perm's don't show up during a match reverting me to the default armor. Sometimes i'll be in a match for about ten minutes and then finally my chosen armor will pop up and sometimes it doesn't load during the entire match (but everyone elses armor loads though).

The problem seems to be more prevalent during laggy games but can also happen during matches that seem to have perfectly fine connections.

p.s I have the original 49 achievements (I hate overkill) and the vidmasters.

Advice/tips/solutions?

"Go then, there are other worlds than these."

My Spartan Officer achievement didn't unlock. I've reached Lieutenant rank, and have the Spartan Officer pin, but no achievement, hence no Rogue armor permutation.

Rather annoying. :/

Only thing I can figure is that I reached a skill of 11 in Mythic Brawl, but when I reached the 70 EXP required for LT, it was after double XP weekend was over and Mythic Brawl playlist wasn't active. Maybe this caused the achievement not to unlock? Maybe it will unlock after scoring some EXP on the next double exp weekend?

Yes I am missing recon and I have done all of the achievements legit! It says that it cant recognize the classic achievement.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet, Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the organizer, Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier, Who salutes the flag, Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag

What if we can't afford a good router so we can't get the co-op vidmaster achievments on both campaign or firefight?

  • 10.07.2009 10:37 AM PDT

"Go then, there are other worlds than these."

Nevermind... now I get it. Somehow I missed the notation about the achievement requiring 50 exp in a specific playlist. My error. :/

um help? i worked hard for this

  • 10.20.2009 6:12 PM PDT

I got to Luitenant on the rank shown on my service record, no achievement or Rogue perm. I got the pin on my service record too, and did'nt power down at all. does anyone know the problem?

  • 10.21.2009 7:27 AM PDT

In regards to the Spartan Officer achievement, what do you mean by earning 'a 50 EXP level in a specific playlist'? Also, if you are already a Lieutenant or higher, before the "Lightswitch" achievement came out, how do you get it?

I took a long break from Halo 3 while moving and other things etc etc

Anyways, I came back and found out that all my hayabusa armor pems disappeared! I had the helmet and the shoulders but they're all gone. I still have the achievements for getting the skulls but the armor is gone.

ALSO I got up to Lieutenant a couple days ago, got the medal... but never got the achievement. The power never cut out, nor did I turn it off early. It never happened.

Why is everything going wrong for me!?
