^ Yeah, Engineers give Overshields to all Covies nearby. And they explode when you kill them.


Into pretty colors :-)

Glad they are expanding on the Covenant infantry since it looks like we won't be fighting Flood or sentinels.

That's a thought; wouldn't it be cool if Grunt Birthday Party affected Engineers too?
And yeah, no Flood this time... Mythic's gonna be even harder, although haters of Cortana just scored a lucky break. :-P

I don't know why people hate it so much. It's not like you can get lost, the enemy is the easiest of all enemies...

Only the Cortana and Gravemind moments are annoying.

It's merely because propaganda influences the minds of the weak.

Survival of the fittest?

Haha, that'd actually go in well for Firefight.

I agree with you guys, I used to be terrified of that mission, but once I learne dmy way around and how to kill the Flood it became quite easy. The only frustrating parts are the Cortana/Gravemind moments and random bullcrap that happens regardless in Mythic.
On a similar note, I wonder if Bungie might pencil the Flood into Firefight somewhere along the lines; after all, Johnson shouldn't be in New Mombasa at that time, but Firefight isn't canon, so why exclude more enemy variation? Imagine the fun we could have with Ranged Forms... >.<

I second that. And the tank forms would be harder to take out without an energy sword.

We have Johnson's cigar for that.

Speaking of him, maybe he'll be useful for once while in combat this time.

Well since he'll be player controlled this time, it's all up to whoever selects him in the Firefight lobby...

I think I'll play with the helmet on, much more exciting to me. As for flood, it would be cool if one level the flood infect some phantoms, you know? i doubt it though.

Or maybe bonus rounds with Scarabs.

Mythic Firefight won't work. Difficulty multiplier skulls are selected in sequences over the course of a set, and the only real difficulty one you control is Blind.

As for Campaign, fair enough, but Firefight is a no-no.


correction: unless the game puts ALL skulls on which i have seen it do in videos

We still don't know for sure if it's only in Bonus Rounds though.

  • 09.01.2009 1:55 AM PDT

Does anyone even read these?

I can't wait to see the new and exciting gameplay Mythic difficulty brings to campaign. :)

They are carrying over from Halo 3.

I'm assuming they're going to be hidden throughout the Campaign like in H3?

No one can be sure yet. We'll just have to wait for the first find. Or if bungie reveals that they will be.

I think we'll be looking for other stuff than Skulls in the city.

No, acnboy. Spartain Ken 15 is a lesser being. Much like the bacteria that lives in your shi­t.
Posted by: mike120593
My shi­t bacteria takes offense to that comparison.

Don't make me lel. You won't like me when I lel.

I'm nowhere near good eough to do mythic and culdn't be bothered. Legendary will be enough for me (co-op for funzorz)

You're gonna have to deal with it if you want to stay alive in Firefight. =)
