Hi

Oh yeah, while I remember I found a little something that may make haters of Coastal Highway laugh a little.
I found this on the back of the Olifant...
Oh the irony.

That sucks Gazas. Hopefully you'll get back into action soon.

You could make a point about utilizing your invincible friendlies. Giving them your power weapons and long range weapons will help you out a lot. Them being invincible with bottomless clips makes the game much easier if you let them lead.
If only they stopped throwing grenades and started using the rockets I gave them... It would make the end section of Coastal Highway so much better.

I know. That last part isnt as bad as the rest of Coastal, but it gets so boring waiting for Buck and Dare to kill anything. Especially when the Chieftan doesnt want to rush.

That was the worst part. I can't stand waiting there. I ended up running all the way over to the Wraiths on the left side, jumping off the side, and assassinating the chieftan. Luckily, Buck and Dare finally took out the last 2 brutes when I ran outside.

I know what you mean. I got so frustrated waiting. The only thing holding me back from running out there after 5 minutes was the fact it took me too many tries just to get to that point. Luckly I did have enough ammo and cover to kill the chieftan from a distance to make the brutes attack Buck and Dare.

So, MoleN, Matclan, Trigg, I got the screenshot of the carnage report. I decided to set it to my trophy shot, even.

Awesome. Maybe if we PMed both that and the corresponding film to the webteam we might get our trophies unlocked. Otherwise I need to get a pic too, did you just leave the 360 fast forwarding all night?

I like the idea. We could try, right? Maybe an email, this way we do have proof, and maybe we can get out skull? I mean, its noit our fault, so I don't see why they wouldn't help.

  • 10.26.2009 1:09 PM PDT

No, otherwise I wouldn't know the precise time it would be ending. (I believe fast-forward is slightly faster than 2x speed)

Of course, the main benefit was that the film is nearly eight hours. I started it just before 1:00 A.M. and was up to watch around the end. I didn't think about the fact the film waits to end. Lol.

I did nab a second screenshot, though. Right before the game ended and the Brute was shooting MoleN's body.

Exactly, the screenshot clearly shows our gamertags, difficulty, time, map and score so it can't be denied as proof. It also can't be said to be modded as it will be linked to the film it is taken from (B.net does that automatically). Hence why we submit both in the same message/email.

You want me to message them? If so, who should I message, Achronos? Stosh? RunningTurtle? Maybe even urk or Sketch as they're PR guys?

Urk is the community manager. I would probably choose Stosh too.

Alright, I'll get to work on wording it now. I'll edit it in here when I'm done so you guys can tell me if anything needs changing.

EDIT: I've got Vince's screenshot but it would be preferable to have both it and the film in his fileshare to show the same material was used.



Excuse me, but I was just wondering if it would be possible to help me out with a technical problem some friends and I have recently suffered; this problem is a case of a long lasting Firefight game not showing up on any of the 4 involved players' service records. Unfortunately this means that the "trophy skull" associated with our score will not have been unlocked.
Despite this our film did not cap out in-game and we were able to salvage a screenshot of the final statistics page from it.
This screenshot can be found here and the film it came from here. As can be seen, we achieved quite a high score (7'737'709 with a time played of almost 8 hours) and feel disappointed with it not being recognised. Our gamertags are all linked to Bungie.net acounts and are as follows:
MATCLAN - linked to MATCLAN
TheMoleN - linked to TheMoleN1
CBTrigger - linked to CBTrigg
VincentKurayama - linked to VincentK
I apologise if this is being sent to wrong person in which case could you point me in the right direction? If not a response as to whether you can or cannot help us would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Well, it's done but I need Vince to put his film and screenshot into his fileshare before I submit it to urk.

I love the wording. Umm...Myself and Trigger are taking more screenshots of other post game stats to prove it is true, but I wont have them for a few hours. Also, maybe include some of the game details (length, date, Score). Other than that it looks great, lets hope for an answer, and hopefully Urk can help.

Needs to be Vince's film for the link to exist or for you to screenshot the stats from your film.
Also maybe Vince should send it as it's his stats we're using. Of course if he'd rather I sent it, that too is fine.
And thanks Mole, but what sort of stats will you be looking for?

Me, I'm going to take some of the enemies killed, Possibly betrayals, medals, and individual stats. Just to show it's legit. Message him first (Include all of our GT's btw, so we get what we earned ;) ) and if he has a way to do it we'll give more proof.

Even if you had XBL, it would be pointless to try it again until they fix whatever is the cause behind all the lost games.

Vince's psicture of the stat screen shows our GTs etc, however it probably will be a good idea to say that we all have linked B.net accounts too.
Either way, I can't do anything until I get Vincent's film.
