bungie liked your mythic idea for halo 3 they made it into firefight.

firefight is not like halo 3 where you have shields you are just a normal ODST with out shields. the skulls are activated in a certain order and the bonus round is a relaxer round where all you fight are grunts to get you ready for the next round.

I have a feeling that I will be on the later half of the list...for some reason.


I'm going for 2nd.


Yeah, first is reserved by you-know-who. :-P
I just know that ODST is gonna be awesome. Just think, using the Plasma Pistol against Grunts' Overshields... What fun! Firefight's gonna be like, "Whoever has that sniper kill that -blam!- Engineer!"

I've beaten ODST and Halo 3 on Mythic.

So here's my question who could last longer in Firefight 4 MLG pros, or 4 Mythic Conquers.

So what are you thinking.

I'm not sure. I'd like to say conquerors, as we do have more experience in the campaign, but pros are pros after all. Although I do think that Pahat is going to be rocking the new ODST leaderboards : )

This time around there's gonna be alot more Conquerors wanting to improve their previous standings. I think it's going to be a lot more hectic and fun.
I'm also having visions of Pahat surviving ridiculously long into firefight. Along with the saved films to back it up, demonstrating his one-man-army skills.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

There is no reward for doing a "mythic" on ODST other than saying I did it. Zero motivation.

LOL, real rap is not made for you, white people.

We don't expect you to "get it." And you don't, as you've made abundantly clear through your numerous embarrassing dances, karaoke performances, ignorant haters, and pitiful imitators.

You giving your opinion on rap is like a dog watching TV. It's kind of cute because it LOOKS like he knows what's going on, but you know he really has no actual ability to comprehend it.

ODST COMES OUT IN A MONTH ZOMG

Top 15 people who did it in Halo 3 got Recon for it. Zero motivation?

And why do you play Halo 3? Do you make 50 dollars / hour playing it? Zero motivation.

So, someone explain to me more about Engineers and gold armor Hunters. I never got the memo.

I've gathered that Engineers boost the shield strength of allies, but from some of the posts it sounds like they even grant shields to Grunts? Is that true...?

Also, how much stronger are gold armored Hunters?

As of now we don't know anything about the Hunters. We've noticed that they shoot normal shots like in Halo 1 instead of the streams of fire in Halo 2 and 3. This only goes for the golden Hunters. The blue ones seem to have the same features as in Halo 3.

The Engineers will provide overshields to their nearby allies. Drone, Jackals, Hunters...yeah...Grunts. You'll notice that they have overshield by shooting them, they will flash like Elites did and the Brutes in ODST.

If two show up, they'll shield eachother. If two show up and you have a swarm of Drones with them...good luck. If two show up and dozens of Grunts are below them....restart.

Please no too detailed "guides" too soon. I was interested in trying Mythic stuff on Halo3 but once I started to see the videoguides in that hugeass thread of yours, I just didn't want to do it anymore. It lost its charm because now it's possible to literally copy the perfect run. Once again the joke got too far and stopped being fun.

But the true beauty came from the fact that people simply took these original runs as guidelines and built upon and tweaked them until new styles and tactics began to emerge.
The real fun comes from saying "Screw the guide, I'm trying this my way!" Then when you succeed it's all the sweeter.

Even with the guide people can't complete it.

Trust me, It's not as easy to copy that run as perfectly as you think. You have to be prepared for anything in the run that changes the outcome of it, But that doesn't mean you should not try to beat Mythic. It shows that you can rise up to the challenge of all challenges and conquer it with pride.

Yep, but those 60 seconds of Mythic are going to be awesome. Points will go through the roof and kill stealing will be rife. I'm loving it already.

Also, has anyone else noticed that Fog and Thunderstorm are missing? Fog I can understand as it has no use with ODSTs not having radar anyway, but why remove one of the skulls (Thunderstorm) which makes enemies that little bit harder to kill? Could it be that enemies in ODST will already be at their highest level? Or maybe they'll be "promoted" gradually the more you advance through Firefight? The latter would be my guess.

I'm going to agree with your answer to your own question : ) I also think that the Thunderstorm skull is still going to be in campaign.
