Subject: What Difficulty Will You Start On?

War. War never changes. Since the dawn of human kind, when our ancestors first discovered the killing power of rock and bone, blood has been spilled in the name of everything, from God to justice to simple, psychotic rage.

E-mail; save a stamp fire a mailman...

heroic first, i don't want to get frustrated with a new game...

then ill go back and do legendary and find all the skulls, eastereggs, and misc thing i didn't find on the first run through....

I am a Halo 3 Failure.

Where's the Mythic option? Just kidding, but I'm either gonna do Legendary or Heroic.

  • 08.12.2009 2:50 AM PDT

I'm gonna start it ledgendary straight away, its only going to make me better at the game and get used to the tactics better. If you play on easy, then i think you still get a sense of charging in = bad.

BTW, hasnt there been like 3 threads like this?

  • 08.12.2009 2:53 AM PDT

Definently normal, easy is just to easy and heroic isn't the kind of difficulty i would first play a game on.

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.

Legendary, then maybe the search bar.

You know, Me too. Then I might go on Heroic :P

Yes, grave digging is always better then just making a new topic. The Search Bar is worthless.

  • 08.12.2009 3:08 AM PDT

Vancouver BC, Canada.

Heroic as always.

<(0_0<) <(0_0)> (>0_0)>(>0_0<) .

Legendary, the option is pretty much the second reason (first is because my friends and i agreed on it)

  • 08.12.2009 6:54 AM PDT

I nevr do easy unless it's after I beat the game and I do it for the lolz. I always start the game from Normal and work my way up from there.

im gonna go through the campaign on normal first to unlock all the firefight maps, then go through it again on normal to find all the skulls/other achievements/easter eggs. Then i go through it on legendary

  • 08.12.2009 7:05 AM PDT

I'm gonna do Normal, fire fight, new maps, firefight, Heroic (Repeat), Legendary, then I'll do a bunch of fire fight, and I'll explore the city on normal or heroic.

No, if you play with legendary first, your just going to get to grow a big, thick horn in your forehead. It takes all the juice out of the game if you play it too hard for the first time.

For myself, I think I'm going for the normal difficulty first, so I'll get the right feeling in the first playthrough. After that... FOR THE ACHIEVEMENTS! Chi ching!

  • 08.12.2009 7:15 AM PDT

legendary FTW.. and no I dont care about DARE its the rookie thats a beast.

I'm going to play it on legendary. I've been playing Halo CE on legendary and will do so till ODST. I think that'll toughen me up enough to do ODST. I did COD4MW on Veteran first time around and I absolutely enjoyed it. As long as ODST Legendary is not harder than Halo 2 Legendary I'll be okay. BTW, In Halo CE I've been using the PP and Magnum as to not cheapen the experience and hone my skill with a pistol with zoom.

And no, I did not beat Mile High Club. : (

  • 08.12.2009 7:26 AM PDT

Normal then Legendary on my own then Legendary co-op later on.
