According to the E3 Demos, it seems there are 6 Flashback missions. How would you decide which to do first?

A Picture of those missions, in the exact order they were placed in

Personally, I'm going to use a dice and roll. 6 Flashback missions. 6 faces on the dice. Perfect. How will you decide?

Hey guess what!? I play CoD more than Halo, but I'm not an annoying fanboy. I love CoD more, but I like how involved the Halo Community is...

Whoever is closer

I'm either going to go to the closest mission or play in order of how the missions are listed on the VISR.

So,
Tayari Plaza
Uplift Reserve
Kizingo Boulevard
ONI Alpha Site
NMPD Headquaters
Kikowani Station

Wasn't it posted somewhere that you have to Dutch's mission first before anyone Else's?

Eat raw meat.
Punch a bear in the face.


If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

Definitely whatever is closest. +1 Laziness!

Nope, you'll have to do something first (Go find the Map) and then all 6 are available for free use.

But unless you saw the leaked stuff, you don't know which mission is who's.

I was joking, I'll just go to whatever ones I feel like.

Oh right.

I was going to do which ever was closest first but then I thought that, this game being open world an all, I wanted to stimulate 'stumbling' upon a 'random' beacon and doing the flashback.

All the more tough for me now that I've seen the leaked stuff and pretty much know which flashback belongs to who but I'll hold.

What if i wanted to break?

Any Order is fine

I've had the willpower not to look at leaked footage. Go me.

Gave up once I was tricked and forced into watching the Halo 3 Ending before playing it. Don't ask.

Whatever order I stumble upon them. I have a feeling that I won't really be seeking them out as much as just happening upon them as I explore the city and take out covenant patrols.

No, that was just the e3 demo where they only could showcase Dutch's segment. You can play them in any order you like. :) As for me I will just chose the beacon that I am the closest to.
