This Screenshot shows a wraith driving off the cliff in 'The Covenant'. After me and my friend flew over to the third tower we couldn't see the Wraith (Normal, Anti Air was still there). Puzzled we went back later and checked in theater, to see the brute in the Wraith drove around in circles then off the edge. What do you think happened.

Lol, stupid brutes.

  • 08.17.2010 10:50 AM PDT

i dunno, AI goes crazy sometimes

i can't even do the meta-game achievements for one simple reason

THE MARINES

my so-called allies kill me more than the covenant and because i have all skulls on to multiply my score 'iron' forces me to start again
i never died due to the covenant, the marines kept killing me in firefights, i didnt even betray anyone

its just a AI mess up is all

  • 08.17.2010 10:51 AM PDT

Well I know the AI can mess up, and its brilliant if the enemy is killing itself, but your problem with marines is harsh. I mean I know they can be stupid and weak, but them killing you is a major -blam!-up!

  • 08.17.2010 11:00 AM PDT

yeah i know, it really -blam!-ed me off when i got to the very end of tsavo highway, literally about to complete the level thinking there no marines were near, only brutes, then two marines crept up behind me and threw grenades at me, there werent even any brutes nearby

  • 08.17.2010 11:05 AM PDT

Damn! That is a serious problem. Maybe if you betray them, they'll start attacking the Covenant lol

  • 08.17.2010 11:11 AM PDT

Lol. FAIL. This reminds me of a time when I was playing Normal on XBL with my friend on Tsavo Highway. We were up to the point where you are close to the end with all those Brute Choppers and those 2 wraiths. My buddy was in a diff chopper,and I was driving a 'Hog,I went,pushed a wraith of the edge,and an enemy chopper came boosting at me,I just got out of the way and he went STRAIT of the edge. It makes me think "What a failure".

  • 08.17.2010 12:08 PM PDT

yeah man ha ha

i actually did kill all of the marines at the beginning of the storm

after successfully destroying all AA wraiths, i went to kill that wraith that drops down near the door that you need to go through

guess what, one of the hornets that flies around miles up in the air fighting banshees came down and killed me with rockets

i'm serious, i was so damn annoyed! i've given up now

Two words. Reckless drivers.

The Anti-air Wraith on the left and the Wraith usually commit suicide.

I have yet to see the Anti-air Wraith on the right do it.

Since everyone's discussing AI fail, I might as well join in. Of course, I'm not going to focus on the negative. I'm going to focus on the positive. Friendly AI might not be bright, but they're great with swords. This screenshot was taken on The Covenant on Legendary.

Maybe you should turn off Iron. Mythic, Thunderstorm, Tilt, Tough Luck, and Catch should be enough.

The Storm is a pain in the ass. The Covenant is more easier.

Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

Gun, meet Bad Guy.
Bad Guy, this is Gun.

i`ve been at that tower and watch it just drive off

  • 08.17.2010 12:44 PM PDT

@Sliding Ghost

yeah i'll try without iron, still, if they do kill me, which they always do, that makes me lose points and i'll have to keep winning them back

depends how much they kill me i guess
i'll try anyway, cheers

  • 08.17.2010 12:51 PM PDT

heroic

the marines always appeared AFTER i killed all the enemy and johnson shot me from the pelican once

i ended up doing it on normal and i was so close to not getting the amount of points

  • 08.17.2010 12:54 PM PDT

geez, even johnson betrayed you

UNSC have got it all wrong

hopefully its better in reach, if they have a meta-game that is
