When will we find out if we will get recon armor or not?

  • 07.26.2009 2:43 PM PDT

When the dust settles, you will learn what true terror is.

Well Sierra is being a pain in the rear... I've gotten to the dam three times. Got sniped once, random brute shot hit me second time, and the third time... well an explosion sent the chieftain up onto the cliff while I was sniping at another brute and I got a hammer in the back of my head... >.<

Here I go again! Anyone got any tips to speed things up?

Play it, love it, rate it.

I'm curious, when is the 2.0 guide for Serra 117 going to be released? In addition, is there going to be a recon raffle for the Team-Mythic challenge?

A lot of people these days choose not to read. Oh, the ignorance. I think I'm going to do some practice runs of Crow's Nest now. Doesn't seem so hard (in theory).

Most of Crow's Nest is very easy. The only tricky parts are the motorpool, first trip to the hanger, and maybe a little bit of the landing pad (depends if Arbiter dies).

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.

Is Sierra 117 started yet?


Ahem.......read two posts above yours.

Do people even bother reading, or do they just post without bothering?

well its a 41 page thread i doubt someone is going to read all of it to figure it out.


Are you defending them? I stated we could start only 2 posts before his question. A mere glimpse of my post would have answered his question.

Bah whatever.

How about the trip up the elevator? Or the fights with the 2 chieftans? This level is pretty intense.

*edit* sorry for the double post, meant to just edit the older one.

The quest never ends until it ends.

Looking at the guide, the level seems just as how Caruban explained it. And there's actually three Chieftains, but none of them seem like they're actually that much of a challenge.

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 will continue to laugh at the people who are STILL sending me entries for Floodgate.

Another example of ignorance of today's world. No wonder we're all suffering in this world.

Aside from that, since Urk posted the Sierra 117 challenge today, do our entries from Friday on count? In the rules thread, it says the official start date was on Friday, so I'm assuming that since I did it on Saturday, I should be safe, right? Better to be safe than sorry. Urk's post makes the Jackal Sniper is a good example of how their bark is worse than their bite.

No black and white in the blue.

In addition to this, I'm also unsure about whether Sierra 117 entries will be accepted until 7/30 or 8/6.....?

  • 07.27.2009 3:01 PM PDT

Does anyone know if Jackal snipers will shoot out of the water at the river bed part? Arbiter keeps knocking them into the river and I get a bit nervous when I try to the other parts and I don't want to go in the water? Any suggestions?

Jeez, has the illiteracy rate gone up? More and more people decide not to read. To enter, just play through Sierra 117 solo, on legendary, and with all skulls on. After that, put the film of that runthrough on your file share. Then, to hyperlink it, use this: [url]your film url here[/url] Replace the middle with the link to your film in your file share.

And @ Hefty,

Yes, a winner has been announced. It was mentioned a few pages back. >_>

7-30-09.

One week per mission, regardless of when a story is posted on the front page. Go by what is stated in the rules, that answers 99.9% of questions asked here...

Woot just beat Sierra 117!

when it says the 31 can you start some days earlyer?

  • 07.27.2009 8:12 PM PDT

If your asking if you can start earlier than the contest date then no. Nice grammar. Can someone please tell me just to clarify I'm doing it right. Am I supposed to have the link to the more details page of the film or what. PM or post is fine just let me know please.

Yes I understand that part but link it to the details page?

Would this be correct?

Nope. They cannot shoot through water. Once they fall in, they might as well be dead. I tested this one a few times at the river.
