If there were going to be Mythic related achievements, they'd be labelled as LASO instead. When people think Mythic most still think legendary + mythic skull, a decent portion go with LASO, and the rest is our small community who knows Mythic comes with the no saves & deaths, scoring and film requirements.

Though I do like the thought of a level on Mythic/LASO as a vidmaster. Halo 4 perhaps?

Also, anyone else sorta anxiously awaiting the Anniversary achievement list to be leaked and/or revealed? I'm thinking 10 level complete achievements, the standard 3 for campaign complete on the higher difficulties, a decent few level specific ones and the rest can be anything really.


I'm sure there will be some co-op -based achievements since they're really pumping up the fact that you can do campaign co-op over LIVE. Then of course there will be the terminal achievements, and probably some Reach related achievements to make you want to buy Reach.

The Mythic Threads (Halo 3) (ODST) (Reach)

Falcon, Tyrant. It's the Falcon ;P

But about the achievement, I'm sure people wouldn't complain if we actually still had a good going thread with our tips and Tyrant's walkthroughs. People would easily get the achievement because they want it and they would with our help. The reason no one is doing it now is because no one can't be assed. Remember how many actually tried when we had the Recon challenge?

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

Hi, my name is Stolen_Zombie! My morning routine is to bomb the ocean, eat a house, drink salt water, and kill a zombie. Many people consider me a jack ass because I eat corn flakes, I tell those people to go have sex with a kangaroo. After my morning routine, I rage over beating LNoS on mythic so I can get one step closer to mythic reach completion. I should mention that's after school. My diet is shotgun shells and paper airplanes, nice to meet you!

Perhaps I'll give it a go before CEA.

No point? What about for yourself? To prove that you can beat Halo 2 on the hardest difficulty level? That's the only reason I did H3/ODST/Reach; whether I had proof or not was inconsequential.

You can share your videos and we can decide if it looks legit. Only the most dedicated and hardcore fans would dare attempt H2 SLASO, and along with the character trait of dedication usually comes honesty.

Legendary? ok. But Mythic, I would never have done if I couldn't have proved it. For me, just a list of gamertags in a thread was motivation enough, but I needed at least that.

I don't have a capture card, so thats why I couldn't even begin to prove it :)

If I had a capture card, maybe. Just maybe. But since I don't, it's ridiculous to post and say "I just completed Halo 2 Mythic!!! I have no proof but I don't care, it was for myself."

People would think I'm a troll. :P Trolls have actually said that very line here on the thread, but replace Halo 2 Mythic with Reach Mythic.

Tank beats everything.

I noticed in the descriptions of the films, it said "Mythic" rather than "Legendary". Did you do that, or did the game do it itself since it is LASO?

If I can get a PVR or related device sometime in the foreseeable future, I'll probably give it a go. Though I'd have to either delete or copy my Halo 2 files in the HDD to a USB and then start from scratch so I could use all the glitches etc. Seeing as there's no live support for Halo 2 anymore, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't prompt you to install any updates.

We change it ourselves so people know it's a mythic run, because without that you can't really tell what's laso and what's legendary
I mean you could just watch my wonderful mythic runs [/huge ego], but a lot of people rather wouldn't sit through an hour to realize "wait this is laso"

Mythic achievements? If 343 wants to alienate their fanbase, like Capcom did with Dead Rising's "7 Day Survivor" achievement and Ubisoft did with Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter's "World Champion" achievement, then they should go for it.

I would like them, but I think the majority wouldn't.


I remember getting "7-Day Survivor," that was fun! I racked up a hell of a kill count with my megaman gun and beam sword in the process!

Heh, you don't know about achievement alienation unless you've played Lost Planet 2. Several achievements required an absolutely monumentous amount of effort and one required you to gain all available titles in the game. 2 of which were based on coming within the top 10 and first on any online time trial leaderboard. I was fortunate enough to nab the number 1 spot on one map before the hardcore tter's out there got to it, but now it's next to impossible to crack the top times.

Never started being good for me. xD

And a Mythic achievement is nothing. Anyone can do it. I thought it was impossible when I first tried because I had no idea how to do it, I used the AR and stuff. Then I saw the guides and it looked so much easier. If someone really wants the achievement, he would look for guides on the internet, just like any other achievement. And if the achievement really was out there, then there would be guides out there. *Looks at Tyrant*

Keep in mind that although the update fixed sword flying, it also made the brute shot melee extremely powerful. That would certainly help with the Black Eye skull.

You had the beam sword? Lol, that means you tried to get 7-day in the past, got to five days and then died. XD

Nope, I have it too, if you get 5 day then go into the safe room, it's there, you don't have to die

Halo 3 (31st), ODST (14th) and Reach (4th) Mythic Conqueror. (Mythic is Solo, Legendary, All skulls on + scoring on and no deaths/saves).

Just completed LNoS for the 3rd time.

2nd and 3rd waves at anchor 9 went totally FUBARed though so I don't know if it's any faster.

Le sigh. Managed to implement a new strategy between hanger 2 and 3 though. Not as many crates.

I'll time it and upload it anyway.

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

Not doing any runs until next tuesday. I am on vacation and all I have is Halo 2 PC which is a real hassle with a keyboard. On outskirts the hunters kept killing me because throwing a grenade and dodgeing just doesn't work so I skipped.

32:09.

If Anchor 9 hadn't gone so badly it would have been sub-30! I lost 2 minutes there compared to my 33:11. Though the beach section didn't go quite as well, and I messed up the Grunt wave of the final hanger battle so... it can go to 28 or 27 minutes I reckon.

I was thinking if CEA does have Mythic, then switching to classic mode should be against the rules as it would disable skulls.

It wouldn't actually; classic mode is only a visual change.
