Fight to Live, Live to Fight.

So, right when you get the game, what is going to be your plan of action?
Here's mine.

I'm probably going to beat Heroic campaign, solo first time around.
Then try some firefight with friends.
Play some Halo 3 multiplayer to test drive the new maps, first on forge and then in Matchmaking.
By this time the community will have put out a guide for finding all the secret achievment collectibles in ODST, so I'll go back Co-Op Legendary, and find all he secrets, then have a go at the vidmasters.
Play Firefight
Beat all vidmasters
Rock Recon for a week, while trying to get the Longshore, Citadel, Heretic achievments in Halo 3.
Play some more firefight, and then dick around in New Mombasa in co-op while trying to get all the achievments in ODST, including the Firefight ones.

Keep playing Firefight and Halo 3 until Reach Beta comes out.
Reach it up.
Play some Halo 3 and Firefight until Reach comes out.
Rinse and repeat for Halo: Reach

Actually, I find that I'm more invincible without pants, which is why I am not wearing any at the moment.

First set of missions on legendary.
(edit) recover the remaining mythic skulls
Then go play firefight with friends
Finish legendary
Go back for an achievement run / Get any vidmasters I can
Explore
Firefight
Reach.

EDIT: Thanks Metallic, forgot about the skulls.....

Sending me a group invite or some kind of other pointless, time wasting advert gets you blocked. Don't bother wasting your time. kthnxbai

First thing i'll do is redeem my Johnson code, it'll probably take about 3 seconds to do it, so might as well get that done first.

Then i'll play through the entire campaign on Normal. After that, i'll probably take a look around the new maps in Forge, and nab the Skulls for them. I don't know what i'd do after that. Depends on what my friends would want to do (Which I imagine would be to play Firefight).

  • 07.13.2009 8:45 AM PDT

My Gameplan: (Please note this is tentative)

-Play through Campaign on normal, not fast run play-through, enough time to explore a lot, but not every thing
*Note: I am playing on normal because I play on the "normal" difficulty settings for all games on my 1st play, not because I am bad at Halo.
**Also Note: I will NOT be in any party to chat with my friends, I always enjoy doing the single player by myself with no destractions for the first time (especially Halo games)

-Play some Co-Op campaign with my friends, goof off some
-Play firefight with my same friends from eariler ^ on about 3-5 maps, (highly doubtful of playing all firefight maps)
-Remind my friends that we have three new Halo 3 maps
-To the dashboard!
-Load up disc 2, forge on all three maps (As of now Longshore 1st, then Citadel, finally Heretic)
-Search for the skulls without any help from anyone/anything
-Matchmaking on the 3 new maps (probally on the playlist that Bungie might have set-up for it)
-Go back to ODST, play more Co-Op campaign and Firefight
-When it is open, Play the Halo: Reach Beta


Note: This process if not the exact way I will play, obviously, I cannot do all that in a day, even a week. I haven't even started thinking when I will try to get the Vidmaster achievments or Beat ODST campaign on Heroic and Legendary solo.

  • 07.13.2009 10:57 AM PDT

Play the new maps and firefight for 12 hours straight with some friends, then take it home and play the campaign 2 or 3 times on legendary. After that then I can do some co-op with friends...maybe take longer to do missions and really explore every area of the map with the help of friends. Skulls and vidmaster stuff is way later...i'm actually sick of Recon already and its not even readily available yet which is lame. It's been hyped out, im sticking with the Mark V or VI or ODST, those seem to be my favorite now.

I'll probably jump around on heretic happily because I loved midship. Wander around the other 2 maps for a bit then jump into campaign and see how it goes.

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

Put it in the Xbox
Gaze at the menu
Think of how long i waited for this
Get a drink
Get my ODST controller hooked up to play.
--------------------------------
Beat Solo Legendary
Get Skulls
Get Achievements
Make sure to have Vidmasters.
Play FireFight a ton.
Wait for Reach Beta to come out.
While waiting for Beta to come out try to find tricks and glitches in Campaign and FireFight.
