Same here, I might start with Mythic later though as school won't give me much time with ODST.

And same here. I've got too much work to do.

This is likely going to be my last post until I complete the campaign. I'll come back afterwards to discuss campaign on Mythic and set up some Firefight. Gotta do Firefight : )

RIP Halo 2 Multiplayer

I hate frustrating games, and Mythic difficulty seems like it's just that - I'll pass...

I'm hyped. My copy has been posted, hoping it arrives on Monday.

I'm gonna leave the Mythic campaign and firefight for a couple of weeks after I think.

Yeah, I did it with Halo 3, it's not like we all started Mythic at its release back then.

Mythic is not fun. You can fool yourself all you want. It is frustrating only.

One of many opinions right there. That's not a fact.

It's only frustrating if you're easily frustrated. Personally I actually find it to be less frustrating than Matchmaking as any mistakes you make are your own and not lag related. It also encourages the player to use guerilla tactics rather than pretending to be Rambo.

Either way your opinion won't change our opinion and vice versa so have a good day. :-)


My copy of ODST should arrive tomorrow, I'm hyped and can't wait to wreak havoc in New Mombasa.

I'll probably sit back a bit. I don't care about any place at the moment.

Hi

Amazon.com says my copy is coming in October...

Getting it on the 21st? I'm definitely staying off Bungie.net starting the 21st then.

To make this a bit more on topic, does anyone know if the Thunderstorm skull is in campaign?

Hopefully getting it tomorrow, the email said 3-5 days and it'll be the 3rd day tomorrow.
As for Thunderstorm I really can't say, it's not in Firefight due to progressive difficulty I'd guess but that doesn't seem like a reason to cut it from Campaign... I hope it's in, but if it's not maybe Engineers dishing out overshields will more than make up for it?

Ouch!

btw, if anyone here wants some people that are good at halo campaign for potential Vidmaster achievement grabbing and/or firefight (non mythic for the time being please!) I'm game. Just send a friend request and message.

Feeding into that whole "culling the covenant" thing.

One day left, and I'm home from school today. Which I'm not happy about, but they'd send me home if they saw me sick.

Hopefully I have enough power to actually get up and buy the game on my way home tomorrow.

Dropship dude, you're wrong on Firefight as all Skulls eventually will be turned on.

That, and, if Iron only gets turned on in Bonus Rounds, you can always say that Mythic Firefight would be how much you can survive without dying once.

So Firefight will either eventually become Mythic or be Mythic from the beginning.
I think Iron is only for Bonus rounds, because in this video it says "Bonus round... Good luck" and, "All skulls on" but it also says "Iron on" seperately, so I think it's only for Bonus rounds.

Ok well then read my second paragraph. =)

For a second, I thought the topic was: My thick ODST skull.

I'm proud of my brother letting me play ODST in 3 hours due to my impatience to play Firefight on Mythic and some Campaign before moving to the challenge.

He's lucky. Mine hasn't come early despite my hopes. Ah well, one more day won't kill me, but it does suck that today of all days I'd get no homework which is perfect for playing a new game.

You know what's not perfect? Getting sick.

At first I did good, I just had a bad throat but now...phlegm, phlegm, phlegm.

I can't play without my controller getting all phlegmy.

EDIT: Actually I'm not quite sure what phlegm is so...

Phlegm is in your throat... How it gets on your controller is rather strange to say the least.

as I type this ODST is fifteen minutes from being launched in the UK. If only I was sick so I could attend a midnight launch and skip college... :-P

EDIT: Congrats on getting Intrepid. :-)
