Does anybody think that there will be a new difficulty setting in Halo: Reach, called Mythic? It is supposed to be the difficulty above Legendary. Discuss.

Also, what sounds more challenging, Mythic, or Legendary. Personally I think Legendary sounds WAY harder. Mythic sounds weird. The logo for Legendary also looks like more of a challenge than the Mythic logo.

They may add the difficulty as a setting after you unlock all skulls as Mythic in Halo 3 is Legendary + all skulls + scoring

well what is better a myth or a legend

well I hear myth refered to ancient gods like Greek Mythology and legends are more refered to tall tales or stories of people doing great deeds or its also refered to real people like in sports

the map packs go by difficulty Heroic Legendary then Mythic

also Bungie would perfer Mythic over Legendary because of their older game Myth (or something like that) and Bungie loves to make references to their other games like Marathon, Forge and Anvil I believe were level creator tools for Marathon

I actually wouldn't mind a mythic difficulty. Mythic sounds WAY better if you know what it means.

You know how games usually don't let you play on the hardest difficulty unless you beat the campaign once? Why not have mythic difficulty unlocked when you find all the skulls in the game.

And what mythic logo are you talking about? I didn't even think there was an "official" logo for it?

Big Team Battle Multiflag/Slayer on Standoff/Valhalla/Sandtrap/Avalanche = Win

Isn't it a shield, two brs, and a skull with marks on it and red eyes?

I'm pretty sure that is just the logo for the mythic map packs, not necessarily linked to a difficulty icon. I could be wrong.

We aren't even sure if they will make a mythic difficulty so who are we to say that that's what the logo will look like and if it will even be called mythic difficulty.

War, War never changes.

Got my Recon from the Vidmaster achievments, like most.
Reach IS awesome, don't deny it

I think they should, itd help all the people complaining about how 'the plasma weapons should kill us in one hit' people

I would like to see them actually add a mythic difficulty. that would be nice.

mythic difficulty should be no crosshairs, no hud [like showing the how much ammo you have], classic style halo ce with heath packs, no or very few friendlies.

Or maybe, you play as a dying grunt versus 1000 UNSC marines and 1000 floods, with no guns and no health points, i think that will be cool perhaps, i`ll buy that idea

I think the Mythic difficulty should play like Legendary difficulty with all of the current Halo 3 gold skulls turned on, except for Iron.

Imagine, playing the campaign on Legendary - except the enemies have twice as much health, dodge projectiles, throw more grenades, are promoted to highest rank, guns have less ammo, no motion tracker, and resistances are doubled.

Wow.

I keep myself with the grunt idea,
xD, or just activate the skulls

  • 08.14.2009 9:22 PM PDT

No matter how many times I forget about this place, I always get dragged back.

I'm more than okay with that.

I would say Total Carnage, but only if Bungie then allows us to use the melee or the plasma pistol overcharge shot on switches or buttons.
