I'm totally going Heroic! Legendary does give you the action, but you might have to reload a ton of times. That sort of detracts from the game, having to replay a part over and over. I pretty much feel that heroic is the best for a first play through because you still progress fairly quickly, going just about as fast paced as the storyline, but it's no stroll in the park so it's still pretty intense. And you don't have that need for more that a normal runthrough gives you.

edit: Oh yeah! After a solo runthrough.....It is nearly a commandment!! Thou shalt play 4 player co-op on Legendary!!

Heroic, the way it's ment to play.

I'm on Heroic, it's not too hard while still providing a challenge. After I'm done the Campaign I'm doing 4 Player on Legendary.

He threw down a glove you made the mistake
Of picking it up now you're gone
The choosing of guns or fighting with swords
The choice of weapons is done
He'll tear you apart as soon as you start
You know you don't have a chance.

legendary ofc. but before that i need to know my maps with normal.

I will play on Normal first and then go to Legenday, Heroic is a Diffuculty that just isnt worth my time.

Legendary or bust! If I die then I move down to heroric.

  • 06.11.2009 8:33 PM PDT

Probably Heroic first time through by myself.

  • 06.11.2009 8:42 PM PDT

Normal to get used to the new gameplay, if you want to start it higher, fine, but don't start on easy.

  • 06.11.2009 8:54 PM PDT

With me is always the same: First normal, later heroic and last legendary.
Normal
Heroic to know the maps at 100%
And legendary

Death to rank junkies.

Normal.

Mythical Group

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

Legendary. I'm going to earn the ending. :D

Legendary. I'm going to earn the ending. :D

To be honest, since in Halo: CE and Halo 3 there was something different about the ending cutscene if you beat it on Legendary, I'm just going to do what I did in Halo 3:
Start at the final rally point of the final mission.
