Hey guys I am a huge Halo Fan and I am very committed to different Halo areas. Bungie.net is the best! I have this little piece of Halo with me wherever I go. And no, Halo is not actually pie, it just tastes really good.

I hope this hasn't been mentioned before but I noticed that you now need more gamerscore for the katana. My friends had to get 1300 once it came out and I unlocked it around 1190. In other words if you don't have the katana keep getting different achievements until you get it. Again I apologize if this was mentioned already.
Read the first page of this thread. It has been mentioned.


In that case I apologize for this post as it was not contributing. And to the previous post I don't know why you didn't get the steppin' razor acieivement when I got it it was shortly after I got the triple kill. As in 10 seconds later.

I think because of the update you need more gamerscore to keep it. Some people have lost it without doing anything yet some people kept it. Just try to get all the origional achievements and if that doesn't work just try to earn more gamerscore in Halo 3. This is all the advice I think I can give I hope it helps or someone else gives you a hand.

I pre-ordered Halo Reach but did not get Recon, I was informed that if I pre-order I get Recon but this was not the case. How do I get it now?

This is off topic please post this in the Halo Reach forums and someone will answer your question.

Dude, I unlocked my armor twice without all 49 achievements, I don't even have all the original 49 achievements, I do have 49 achievements though, so yeah.

Question: My Security Shoulders/Katana never unlocked when I originally attained the necessary gamerscore. Will they finally unlock when I earn the new achievements?



Just get all 49 ORIGINAL achievements. That is the easiest thing to do that will ensure the person to unlock the armor.

Theres been instances where people have 1000 GS, but not all 49 achievements, however I believe that is the best method.

The sandbox skull you should find straight facing the horizon,nthe part that has a level ground witn no hills,PS you must disable the gaurdians by filling the map with unlimited trip mines, don't let the trip mines explode until the guardians are disabled then you can blow them up then follow the horizon all the way, then you should get the skull, or you can simply just download a map that has a protective path that leads younto the skull

I have got 1000 gamer score and unlocked the 49 achievements I had katana no problems then . BAM. It was gone, I have restarted my xbox disconnected and reconected to xbox live and its still not com eback, what do I do?

  • 02.26.2011 11:18 AM PDT

"Fear the wrath of the dead! Or as I like to call it the living impared."

Does the Security Helmet unlock at 1000 gamer score and after you get all original 49 achievements (similar to the Katana situation)?

  • 03.11.2011 9:12 AM PDT

MY Gamertag is now

FPS Jord

Ahh, so to gain the Rouge helmet we need Lt in ONE specific gamemode instead of overall?

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Now, after 3 years... I cant get my 11 year old kid brother to SHUT UP ABOUT THE OFFICER ACHIEVEMENT.

I completed the Annual achievement and it did not unlock (we beat the last level on Legendary, yes, with all 4 people in ghosts, and Iron, of course). Why did it not give us the achievement?
