I remember once that i was playing legendary mode on the second level. I was saving the marine that had crashed near the area with the giant cliff. My warthog spun as i hit a rock and veered off the cliff to my (and my 2 passengers) dismay. The back two tires of the warthog had dissapeared off the cliff when the game saved a checkpoint there. No matter how many tries at it, i simply coldn't get that damned warthog to crawl up from its doom, at the time, this was my first go through legendary and i was a bit peeved. Has anyone else had similar checkpoints?

Yeah. I was on the TaR, in the cell with keys. I turned off the gate doors and ran in and stuck Keyes with a grenade. Its supposed to kill both of us and go to the cutscene, actually leaving us both unscathed. Unfortunately, the grenade waited until after the checkpoint to explode. And it was hooked to my head. I don't know how.

So- it would start, I would explode, marines would scream, it would reload, i would explode, and all the marines would scream. Wow, that has a catchy tune to it.

It would reload, i would explode, and all the marines would scream.

lol......Nice poetry Excommunicado!

The worst checkpoints is when you've only got one bar of health left and low ammo and theres a whole load of Covenant or Flood waiting next on legendary, thats the most annoying!
