Hey everyone, have you noticed legendary is just not fun. I mean the enemies are just cheating...there bullets do twice the damage...So I am doing the campaign on Heroic when the games comes out, for the best experience because that's how the game is supposed to be play(even says so in the description of the difficulty) . Because I mean legendary is just so you can get achievements and stuff i guess...because honestly it seems its unfair and just to be like "wow...okay that's lame" like i said with the whole double damage thing, and I don't want to slowly get through the game on legendary just dying and after like 20 mins on an encounter finaly win because I've died so much. That's Heroic is the way to go the first time. Then legendary is better the second time. Any thoughts? Comments on the matter?

Legendary isn't that hard. It's only hard by yourself and when all the skulls are on. And then it's called Mythic.

First month I had H3, I had some problem getting through the campaign on heroic, now I find legendary boring. The only reson I wont play helljumpers on legendary right away is because I'm gonna need to addpat to the new gameplay style.

Then legendary and nothing else.

Well I guess I better put some pants on.

I feel like I'm gonna break this thing!

Each to their own.

Depends on who I'm playing with.

Heroic alone, Legendary with a friend. Probably die though. Tried to do it on Halo: CE. We got our asses handed to us by Major Domos, and only on the level Halo we quit, lol.

No they're standbying you is all. lol. Legendary is supposed to be hard. Hence the name: Legendary

They did amp it up a little bit with Halo 3's legendary though... but then again, halo 2's legendary was kind of a joke...

Yeah, a harder difficulty is supposed to be fair but the AI is supposed to be smarter...they just made the bullets do double damage...kinda lame.

Yeah... but how smart can a bunch of 1's & 0's really be? I can see it all churning is Stosh's brain now...

"Hmm... i'll just make the 1's... bigger.... yeah!"

i like heroic not to hard not to easy.

ps if you look at my service record it says i only played out heroic but i actualy played out legendary ofline with the game downloaded to hard drive disk(didnt know then that it was bad) luckely i have the achivement+eod helmet

  • 06.11.2009 8:07 AM PDT

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the clichéd lines.

I agree. Herioc first, legendary after. Generally in games I don't play the hard mode first because I want to experience the story and all that without potentially tearing my hair out trying to get there. I like to relax a bit, then after I beat it make the game challenging to make it more interesting.
