You're going to university and you're only seventeen?

That's what I get for being in February.

Yeah, I graduated highschool only 2 months after having turned 17 so I was one of the youngest in the grade. I'll be 18 in mid-September though. Mentality wise I feel 18 already, due to Uni and a more responsibility based lifestyle. Though you can never stop me playing games :P

I'm asking that you are least the age of 18 and are willing to set aside at least a small amount of time a week for this.

*facepalm* Guess that means that I, Aura and Dark are off the team.

They're not even there? Guess just I'm gone then.


I'm not even 17 untill mid-August.

Halo 4 Mythic Conqueror #1

Just saying it now, but Assault on the Control Room will be Anniversary's Nightfall.

http://highspeedhalo.net/?p=1018

I honestly can't believe one super simple skip despawns EVERY enemy in the level.

Though I won't stop people doing the level the old fashioned way, just saying it'll be more than likely the first level done on everyone's lists.

Edit: To any of the conquerors/current Mythicer's here, if you've used/are using capture devices how long does it take to get used to making your videos and putting them on youtube for example? I ask cause I'm thinking of buying a Roxio Game Capture device as it seems to be a very simple, easy-to-use device for what I need.

Come Anniversary (and yeah I'm aware it's still early days) I'd like to be able to prove I have done the levels on Mythic, due to the lack of campaign support for theater mode nonetheless.

So, any opinions or advice? Product recommendations etc?

I turned 18 just a couple of months ago and I'll be going to university in 3 weeks. I just hope I can find the time to play games too :P

Get a HD PVR, only $200 AUD. They're one of the best on the market, and it's what I have.

It's harder than it looks.

Assault on the Control Room was the level I was most looking forward to, so that skip kind of saddens me... Oh well.

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

Twenty-ninth Halo 3 Mythic Conqueror
Eleventh Halo 3: ODST Mythic Conqueror
Fifth Halo: Reach Mythic Conqueror

Since people are talking about forum ranks and Halo: Anniversary instead of Reach Mythic/LASO and we haven't been locked yet, I'll continue.

RC, I disagree about it being harder than it looks. There are many methods, some easier than others. Almost every method is documented here. I remember before Halo 2 came out, I spent hours trying to do it--but then I found some really simple methods (I was using a speed-run as a guide). I'm not a Halo tricker; if I can do it, so can everyone else.

It's been around for at least 8 years. It's not news.

You can always do 'full path' if you like :)

RC, I disagree about it being harder than it looks.

How? The one in the speed run requires you to curve your drop around the rock-face which is far from simple. I remember trying to get down from the bridge back in 2004, on PAL, and my attempts ended more often than not with my spartan splattered across the canyon floor. Of course, HCEA is going to be parity with the NTSC version.

Fifth Halo: Reach Mythic Conqueror

RC, I was talking about the bridge descent in general. I remember a video (can't find it) where you drop off like usual, but instead of air strafing around the rock face, you turn directly to face the cliff and hug it as tightly as you can. From there, it's easy to get down the rest of the way.

WHA1LEY, A Jazzy Whale, Jol1ywood, WHA1LEY. I changed my gamertag 3 TIMES!!

I just watched the guide for "Winter Contigency". At the very end, that door that your keep running back to always closes.

Halo Reach 2/3rds of the way mythic conqueror (6/9)

Occasionally it does but it doesn't matter if it closes or not the energy sword elite's assination shouldn't be affected if you don't make a nuiscense of yourself and make him come after you not Jor-hay.

One method I tried, leaping and entering the passenger seat of the pelican as it passes over the bridge, is incredibly difficult to time.

Halo Reach 2/3rds of the way mythic conqueror (6/9)

Hard but one that would make the mission simple and very easy on mythic with a great deal of practice. At the very least it is the beginning of the mission so if you die it is easy to get back to that spot

That skip is pretty crazy, I just finished a replay of every halo game on legendary and after replaying AotCR the long way (which probably took 2 hours), that skip will be much welcomed in future play throughs. I could very easily see 343 removing it in some way or at least making it so the enemies don't despawn.

Slightly offtopic but in regards to my campaign replay experience I would like to say that I now officially rank the campaigns in terms of difficulty on legendary as follows:
Halo 2 > Halo 1 > Halo Reach > Halo 3 > Halo ODST. The jackal snipers on Halo 2 made me rage so hard. I always thought that when playing Halo 3 I had just gotten better so the game was easier, little did I know that I hadn't gotten better...

This replay has given me a sense of hope though, I have not completed Halo 3 or ODST on mythic but now that I went back and played them again I realize it may not be too bad, at least compared to Halo 2 (with the exception of coastal highway on ODST, I swear Buck can't shoot anything, and Dare/the engineer are clinically retarded, missions where you have to rely on the AI are so fustrating).

I also didn't realize the mythic community was so young, some of you guys were like 7 when CE came out. Ridic

They wont. 343 are actually fond of the tricking side of Halo. When they heard that T2T had been completed, they commented saying they'd actually try it themselves, and it would be possible in Anniversary.
