GT: The Depleted

Beat Cortana after finally getting past all the ill-placed sword flood that kept showing up in my attempts!

Stuck trying to put the film in my file share though, the description keeps getting rejected. It doesn't seem to like the date, or time of the film, or even adding "Mythic Difficulty" to the description. So would simply having it titled "Mythic Cortana", with no description at all suffice, Tyrant? As for whatever reason this seems to be the only way I can upload the film to my file share. It's strange as I've had no problems with any of my previous films' descriptions being rejected.

Thanks.

I believe that when connected to XBL, Halo 3 which check the names and descriptions of your custom files against a list within the Bungie servers. Sometimes, for whatever reason, this list is inaccessible, and so it automatically gives you the "bad description message." Regardless of what you put in. Its a bit dumb, but thats the way it is.

It'll be fine without a description. If you're bothered, try editing the description the next time you sign in. It should work. You still have more than 5 days to submit it so no need to rush.

As long as your film is viewable all the way through and the full stats are online and connected to the film file, you're good to go. (so yes, you're fine)

Next time you're editing a post, look below the text box and there should be a section that says "Text Formatting Legend:". Follow the one that says 'hyperlink.' But really, this is just standard BBcode; most people should either know it, or be able to look around for it by themselves.

Mythic Conqueror # 32

I just beat Cortana on mythic and was checking my film before I sent it in...
On the more details link, it shows this message:

We're Sorry. Unfortunately, we don't have a record of this game or we have temporarily turned off game statistics.

The film is recorded but not the stats... Anyone had this issue?

Thanks, Mythic truely is a challenge to even the best players.


I sir, will take that a compliment to the highest degree, thank you.


I really hope I actually complete this. I got REALLY close, and then the power blips. :*(
Well, I better keep trying.

Me and my ODST we are our own breed, forged from combat and bread from years of battle as ODST. So you can take your -blam!- ODST clan invites and shove 'em. Rookies don't run jack, we do.

Keep your hopes up, if there is a good chance for you, the challenge this week is it. This is one of the easier levels despite popular belief.

  • 07.18.2009 7:44 PM PDT

The quest never ends until it ends.

I'm looking forward for next week's challenge. I just did a few practice runs of Sierra 117, but there probably will be more people this time around.

I received my Halo 3 Recon armor on 8-3-09 for completing Sierra 117 on Mythic Difficulty through the Summer Mythic Recon Challenge.

Yeah I have a feeling too that there will be more submissions this week then the last few. Cortana was pretty frustrating the first few attempts, especially since my first run I almost made it. I did have a few pretty funny occurances though that I wish I could make clips of.

On one occasion, a tank-form rushed me, tried meleeing a big metal plate out of his way, and ended up smashing it into himself for an instant kill splatter lmao. That was ridiculous.

Another time I was splattered by a random homocidal tube-section that literally flew through the air from 100 feet away to smash my face into my ass.

Gotta say the most hilarious one was when a shielded Elite form decided to do half the work for me in the reactor room and somehow killed a few of the other combat forms on his own, for no reason. I don't think he thought they were enemies and honed them out, he just accidentally killed a few while I watched lol.

Apart from the randomness I can do everything in this level ¬_¬

What are the toughest parts in the level? I know the hive and reactor room should be hell compared to the other parts, but I don't know exactly how to tackle the escape route back through the projector room.

As easy as Flood may be, I really hate pure Flood levels.

What if your fileshare got banned? Can you save the films on a friend's share an still enter as you?

I definitely thought that the return to the projector room gave me the most problems. The hive was really easy, strange as that might sound. The reactor room wasn't that bad either.

Hello, Community!

Hopefully if you're reading this, it's because you're interesting in kicking your campaign experience up a notch by cranking up the Legendary with all skulls activated :-) Need advice? A guide? Maybe even a friendly community to cheer you on and help guide you through the process? Then give our Mythic thread a read, and Godspeed on your Mythic journey!

Best Regards,
The Tyrant

I'm really off my game today. Strange as it may sound, I've had a streak of bad days lately. Just haven't really played up to my usual lately. I'll tackle this on another day, lately I've just been doing horrible in matchmaking. I've been caught being shot at by all 5 other opponents in LW this whole day, they just seem to be inclined to shoot just me and not the other 5 people around them.

Come on people read the rules

If you don't feel inclined to do so, read this entire thread. Your question has been asked 20 times and answered about 15 of them.

Really I don't think you should even have to read the rules for that one. If you know what the raffle is for, then doesn't that kinda answer the question?

"Well gee I want to know if I'm in the raffle for completing all the missions for the contest each week, but I missed one. Am I still eleigible?"

Seriously.

In any case, how many submissions did you get for the Covenant Tyrant? My guess issss.... 27.

About the same as Tsavo Highway. Not much of a drop this time :-)

I'm seriously going to have to crack down on the ark. Looks like that's going to be my best chance of winning.

  • 07.20.2009 6:55 PM PDT

Same here. At least we'll have straight Covenant from here on. Practice runs of Sierra 117 went very well; almost all the Jackals spawned with Beam Rifles, which made the Quid Pro Quo section quite easy after sniping all the Jackal Snipers and the Brutes from afar. Good thnig I had that luck of the Beam Rifles because Arby didn't do jack squat with the Chieftain, just sort of stood in the little cliff. I had to lure the Chieftain to Arby, but still he dies >_>.

One of the trickier parts for me on the Ark is just sneaking past the first couple of Brutes and stuff. I like skipping that and just luring the Hunters off the side.
