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.
Not all games fail to upload.


Yeah,b ut game slike this take planning and time. Lots of time.
I'd be happy to do it again if it's the only way to have the system recognise it, but as I can't guarantee that I'd rather fight for what I've already done before giving it up as a lost cause and starting anew.

Anywho, revised version is up.

The chance that it will upload is still there though, which makes it not pointless, all I tried to say.

Cmon, you're not going to play any more serious Firefight games until you've heard anything from Bungie? This problem has been here since its release and who knows when it will be fixed.

Oh, I'll still play serious games because I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Aparently I have an addiction to making big purple things explode in a flash of red light. Who knew? In fact, as soon as you get XBL back let me know because you need to put me on the path to enlightenment of Crater. With 2 players we could beast it up pretty well.

@MoleN: Try to get screenshots of the other pages of the stats so that our kills, deaths and points are all proven to stack up correctly.

Great. Looking forward to doing that with you...it's gonna be a loong wait.

MATCLAN, I'm currently without Bungie Pro...not to mention the film is was like...91 MB, so I don't think I could fit it in. I may be able to get it to my guest's File Share, though, and it still shows me as the author.

I see, so you can't temporarily make space in your share. No problem, I think that as long as it shows you as the author it should show that the score sheet came from that film.
Alternativley I can wait for MoleN to finish getting his screenshots and use his film along with those. It really doesn't matter so long as we get the necessary proof (I'd do it myself but I didn't save the film >.<).

Oh yeah, I'm off for the night now so I'll catch back up with this tomorrow should anyone have a brain wave.

We may have to use triig's stuff, or his film and my screenshots. I have no fileshare room. But we'll get this sorted out tomorrow, and hopefully get our game scored. If we dont actually get it, you and Gazas have a third crater partner. Not for another two weeks hopefully, I need a little break.

3 For Crater? I'd choose a better map for 3. Crater is good for 2 but isn't 3 a little tight?

I'm currently trying to finish Coastal Highway on Mythic. I was having a problem with the vehicle section, then I realized, when you reach the end of a highway section, you should park the 'hog just OUTSIDE the threshold of the door, hide behind it, let Buck kill some vehicles and wait for Dare's shield to recharge. If you cross the threshold, Dare will continue on without letting her shields recharge, which will be devastating.

The only hard part of the standoff is the first wave, with those grunts and the brute with the fuel rod. After that, it's smooth sailing.

Just putting that out there if anyone is having trouble.

Smooth sailing? Go ahead and complete it then. Can't wait.

I got a ton of screenshots of our post game stats, at least the top of everybody's medal chest, all of the vehicle, infantry, betrayls and more. Here, click the link:
Post-Game Stats
Hope that helps.

Thanks guys, I'll include the film and the stats (just the final page, if urk wants to see more I'll link the others) and then send it off.

EDIT: Vincent's link doesn't work. Apparently the file cannot be located or doesn't exist.

EDIT2: Trigg also doesn't have a linked GT. Good thing I spotted it before finalising my draft, I'll just edit that now.

MATCLAN, there's a gap between h3f and ileid. It has to be h3fileid.

Same thing happens to me when I put that link up but it works when I click on it. Either try that link or just fix the gap.Posted by: Vincent K

You're welcome.

Out of interest Trigg, why are you keeping it hidden? You have it linked in your signature anyway.

I made it visible.

Honestly, I didnt even know it was hidden until last week when I checked my settings. I just never bothered to switch it til now.

Hello, Community!

Hopefully if you're reading this, it's because you're interesting in kicking your campaign experience up a notch by cranking up the Legendary with all skulls activated :-) Need advice? A guide? Maybe even a friendly community to cheer you on and help guide you through the process? Then give our Mythic thread a read, and Godspeed on your Mythic journey!

Best Regards,
The Tyrant

Since we seem to be straying just a tad bit here, does anyone have any useful tips for Coastal Highway? That's going to be a real kick in the nuts for anyone attempting this.

A good tip would be to pray to Fortuna before attempting. *Spits at Coastal*

Oops, sorry.
As for Coastal Hihgway tips, when watching my film with Gazas the other day I noticed that Buck seem to shoot what you're looking at with a hihger frequency than the other things that could be getting his attention. It's also a good idea to practice how to drive through each part of the highway until you can instinctively know if something's going to fail or be successful. Generally as long as you drive correctly and know when to let the Olifant lead to soak up damage and distract enemies it's made a lot easier.

A tip to help with the areas you find difficult is to save and quit out whenever you die, then start it up so you can retry at the part you died at. This way you can pratice at the parts giving you trouble without going through the rest of the level.
