2pm would be great for me on Saturday. I could pull 12 hours easily.
And I agree, a co-op save; hell even a solo one would be nice for when you don't want to give up but need to go. I'd even like it if it simply saved your progress at the start of every Set.

I just hope to god that we don't run into a game registration glitch like so many others are facing.

Well, I'm taking a break from Firefight until Bungie fixes this problem. I'm never throwing away that much time again.

Good for you Starocean. It's really a big problem that should be fixed.

I forgot to mention, I'm going through the film right now on Theater mode, I'll post a pic of the score at the end, but keep in mind it'll be less than 12M, since the video caps out well before the game did.

...They should have made Firefight getting harder after every round even when all skulls are activated so that you will eventually die no matter what.

Very true. Uping health and damage beyond the skulls, reinforcing faster, omiscient AI, far more aggressive behavior, Banshees or seraphs flying overhead, random drop locations etc.

Hopefully the obscene amount of time people can survive in ODST Firefight means its equivalent in Reach is based more on squeezing maximum score out of the enemies before you're overwhelmed (taking advantage of multikills and sprees in the early rounds). And not simply how much time you can devote.

Ugh. Does anyone have any good ideas for Rally Point? I was trying out Rally Point (Night) and got swarmed in the spawn room by Drones Wave 2 and 4. =/

I'm not sure, I've only played on it once, so I don't have a good strategy for it yet.

Well, I went through my vid and took a screenshot at the end. It's at a little over 6M at Set 16, but that's when the video capped out at 99.9 MB, the actual game went on much longer. It's on my Service record online.

My best idea is not to play it. I like the map but it's a little frustrating for me.

Eh, I need the 200,000. I guess trying to get in on Legendary isn't the best way. Lol.

Oh you want the achievement, I thought you were going for ? Million points on Legendary or something xD.

Anyway, what I did was to stay in the base, they'll all come to you, and when they Drones show up, SMG them from inside the building. Also, play the day map if you have a problem with the Engineers because it sucks when they hide and you have to go outside, find them and kill them so you won't have to deal with shielded enemies.

Wait, so big firefight game on Saturday? Or is that full?

  • 10.13.2009 11:57 AM PDT

I'm down to play some Firefight with you guys sometime, but not in the near future. That 2.5 day epic ate up a lot of homework time, and now I have to make it up.

I'm up for a big Firefight on Saturday. Dunno about anyone else though.

Anyone wish to slay an insurmountable amount of Covenant on Saturday? Just let us know if you feel interested.

I just realized that I have testing Saturday morning... I'd be available around 12 or 1 EST if you haven't started the game by then.

As usual, I'm up for some Firefight. I really want to drive a Wraith during one of the games, but that implies I have host, which may not be the case.

Sounds like fun, I wonder if you were to control a Wraith, would it stop more getting dropped in the same position?
As for the host deal; I wonder if it's possible to "force" host (if it's even host that we were switching) like we used to do for Tri-Mythic in H3? Firefight does run on the Campaign networking model after all.

Why wouldn't we want you to join in? But of course, it's fine by me and I'll invite you when we start.

I just had a thought. If there are too many people, should we split it like North America one team Europe other team. This is soley because this would greatly reduce lag expereinced, and games would be more likely to show up on b.net.

Don't see wyh not, but as far as I can remember the Europe team would consist of me, Gazas and Dark. Or am I forgetting someone who could be a 4th? :-S

I suppose... Although Pahat doesn't talk much and seems to have been habing internet issues lately. He's been signing in and out multiple times every time he signs in.
As for RC, I've never played with him but I can't really see why not.
The thing is though, it's not gonna be like inviting some guys for couple of games of MM, we're planning an 8 hour+ stretch of Fiefight. I can't really see too many people having that kind of time to burn tbh.

Well....poo leak in my school, I was about to have a chemistry test right about now. And the school gets a poo flood.

Whatever it is, it smells like...poo. Looks like oil...and it's coming from every WC in the school. We had to flee. All I could save was my chemistry books and everything belonging to chemistry. My computer and all of my other books...are drowned in poo. School won't be open for a loooong time....

So...I guess I have some time to kill. Ironic as it is, I couldn't play at all because of school and now I'm gonna be tired of playing because of no school.
