I make a legitimate thread on the most logical choice for the next Bond actor, and you take that away from me by creating a parody thread indirectly connecting my thread to yours.
I hope your kids have bad influences and develop bad personalities. I wish this with all my heart.
I would love one of those awesome gaming moments, when something crazy comes out of nowhere that you're totally not prepared for, and by use of makeshift tactics (using your environment, or one of those 'it's a long shot but it just might work' strategies) you manage to take it down. And if Scarabs are included, make them harder. How the heel are the Halo 3 ones an upgrade from the Halo 2 ones? All you do is shoot a leg with some always-supplied missiles that just happened to be there for the right moment, and it practically invites you in for tea. How about this: a formidable defense of enemies is guarding a location. (read: Wraiths, Hunters, Shades, and one Incredibly High-ranking individual, like a chieftain, but even tougher) You have multiple choices:
A.) "Borrow" the beam rifle from a nearby Jackal sniper. Use it to clear out shades and wraith turret-gunners. If there's a squad mechanic, order them to rush the wraiths while you tackle the high-ranking guy. You engage in a brawl with this high-ranking guy, your teammates jack the wraiths, and obliterate the Hunters.
B.) Take out anti-air wraiths and turrets near the back of the base. Do the last thing they'd expect you to do: jack a Banshee. Assault a landing pad, grab one, use its high speed the sneak in and take out the anit-air wraiths. Call in some ODST backup, assault the anti-air turret. Let the pelicans come in and unleash hell.
C.) Be creative! Make lots of environmental advantages. make some key features obvious, but don't have someone pop on the radio to tell us everything about the new enemy the first time we meet it, from its weak spot to what it had for breakfast. Let us have the satisfaction without feeling like kindergarteners. remember, this game is rated M, as in over 17, as in how did you figure out how to set up your system and make an Xbox Live account when you freak out with the slightest challenge? Play on easy.
And yeah, the Tartarus fight was awesome, I just wish that it was harder than dual-wielding plasma rifles.
