Im Awsome.

Hey guys when and more importantly HOW do we find out who won the first raffle???

  • 06.19.2009 3:18 PM PDT

IDK but you will most llikely get a PM saying you won (if you won) and than they will ask you if you want your name revealed. Then they will probably post a blog entry.

Dun wurry itz goin be K.

That was fun, just finished Halo the driving part was nerve wrecking but overall it only took me an hour to finish.

  • 06.19.2009 4:21 PM PDT

Also, was it ever confirmed what it meant if you didn't get an automatic reply. I got one for the "Halo" mission one but not the "Floodgate" one.

To StuffyAnimal's question, that's actually what Tyrant said he wanted, so you're in the clear!

Halo is very frustrating... I beat Halo on Mythic yesterday as part of my practice runs and i tried to do it today and it seems the most unlikely things happen. The stalker doesn't come down for me to beat down, i flipped the warthog twice even though i memorized the track, and the monitor pushed me off the edge....this stuff almost never happens haha

Well, I used the hammer instead of the grenade jump so I didn't have to beat down the stalker. I took Johnson's spartan laser and made sure to drop it where I could pick it up after defeating the monitor cause after you beat it, your shields come back. If I remember, I didn't regenerate my shield once when beating the mission. I pretty much let the arbiter beat the flood and I lasered the sentinals and flood from a distance.

where do you drop it just outside the door leading to the monitor?? yeah i used the hammer jump and it was so much easier... how do you get johnson's laser without it falling off the edge?

I drop it right inside where it looks like you could go left or right. Also, I just stuck Johnson with a plasma grenade and he jumped backwards so it didn't fall off the edge.

Steps I took to reach victory in the Halo Mythic mission. Proceed with caution!

Step1: Get a "BR" at the crash site, save it till you get to Sgt. Johnson
Step2: Get your rockets out, shoot the flood with the hammer, take the hammer then reach the spot where you can grenade jump up the side
Step3: Grenade jump up the side
Step4: Hammer jump up to the middle, then walk your way up
Step5: Find Sgt. Johnson then take his laser, make sure it has infinite ammo
Step6: Take cover and shoot everything with your laser
Step7: Go defeat the monitor
Step8: Activate check points and let the Arbiter kill everything in his path, help him if needed
Step9: Reach the warthog, drive cautiously and make it to victory

If we don't get an auto reply, is there a problem?

I sent my message the same way for both halo and floodgate, but only got an auto reply for floodgate. Thanks in advance.

Same thing for me except I got one for "Halo" but not "Floodgate" and I went to check my gaming history and everything was done right and I sent it in before the deadline.

Well its always good to be confident

Frank Eats Goat! Frank eats gunther! Frank Eats Everything!

Got halo done in 16:27. Wooo.
I find nading the first jump heaps easier than hammering.
I used to hammer all the time and failed A LOT! Then I saw the stalker recharge tip in someones vid. And now make the jump 99% of the time.

Some tips...

Give arby the rocket @ the beginning. He's shot me in the back of the head with it a few times. But that's just cause he's a stupid virgin.

I generally hammer johnson & his 1st splazer off the cliff, then rocket him in the foot when he re-spawns. I also give him that rocket so he's not just standing up there with a plasma rifle or something else stupid. Having both arby & jonson wt rockets makes things move a lot quicker.

Shoot the crap out of those icicles on the long walk @ the beginning of the level. Its fun.

When driving the last bit, honk as much as possible, usually in time with the music.

I don't know about you but there is some flaws in your steps to complete Halo

Step 2:
Since the Hammer carrier has no shields, you BR him. Leave the hammer there until you get rid of two waves of flood on the left side. Skipping this big 3 waves of flood isn't very bright. All it takes is the Brute shot flood to shoot you once while grenade jumping. Go the safe way and remove the threat. The hammer will not disappear until a while. Use all your rockets on the flood with elite armor. If you are injured, Melee the flood. It regains your shield. This is where you really need to depend on your BR Skills. Take out all the floods with no armor that had the SMGS and Assualt rifles [The little floods no shields]. Then go for the brute floods. The Marine floods tend to shoot you all the way across the map. Taking them out first will make your mission twice as easier.

Step 5-6:
This is where you want Johnson to have the laser. This is the time where you can hide in a corner of the hill where Johnson is at for about 5 minutes. This will insure you that nothing will kill you, giving you a safe seat into the lounge of the monitor. Every now and then check to see if the coast is clear. Let Johnson, Arbiter and the Senital beams destroy them.

This walkthrough is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by the mythic (SLASO) and me. Without this, I would have never been able to find the tricks to completing this.

my video. This is almost a replica to the video walkthrough above. At the end of your campaign, you should make sure it shows a campaign score.
