Subject: Need something to do while waiting? Here's a fun challange

Charge...BACKWARDS!

You can do all of the levels with ODSTs in it!
-The Ark
-The Covenant
-Delta Halo (Halo 2, if you have it)

The challenge: Every ODST must survive. If not, at least 1.
Part 2- They or he must reach the end of the level.
Now, do this for all 3 levels. Any difficulty.
To waist more time- Do it on a harder difficulty some other time, after completing the challenge!


Getting one to the end of the ark- is a hard challenge. You have to get at least 1 odst past multiple points that they leave. But after a while, I got one to the end: http://www.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3f ileid=88749645 Note: If you can't do this (and I understand, it's hard) try to at least get the odst past the Scarab.


Now, I have never gotten an ODST past the Blue bridge after killing the 2 scarabs in The Covenant. If you manage to get one past, I'd like to see! It would be neat. Edit: I got one in the the room right after the Big blue bridge, but right when cortana came up, he disappeared.

For Delta Halo, it's easiest to use a warthog. You can get them to the room with the Honour Gaurds (the end), then it goes on to the level "Regret". Even though it's in the same room, the ODSTs disappear.

Good luck, and have fun!
Remember to post if you've completed the challenge on all three levels

I have :P That level is the Covenant, by the way. You probably killed the scarabs with them on (nice), but have you gotten them past the bridge, after killing the scarabs?

This is a good idea. I might give it a go if I have the time.

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

Very cool idea OP. May have to try it.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect


:)
The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Ive done a smiliar thing but with the Elites on Floodgate on Legendary, i got ALL of them to the end. I have a pic of them waiting with the Arbiter on the downed ship.

And i have gotten the ODST's (only 2) to the end of The Ark on Legendary, but them seem to not continue with you sometimes when Foward onto Down touches down...

Less challenging, fun and time consuming, in my opinion. But you can stick with that, whatevers best.

I think it would be funner with friends, and with the team point system.

Yea, you sometimes get the odd 1 odst to go with you.

Do I win if on each of the levels a ODST hops into a pelican and flys away?

Happens everytime. : \

Not quiet, you can ignore this by keeping them on your vehicle, if you don't have one, then try to block there way, or push them. (it's easier to push them if you constantly trade weapons with them)
