Not sure if already found, but in cruellegaceys video, he used the warthog turreet to take out the first tyrant gun in tots. Seems like it was faster than the revenant..

You mean the second tyrant. After BXR. And CruelLegacey used that because he saw people on this thread doing it first.

I'm about as slightly above average as you can get.

Haven't read the whole thread, but you can actually complete na in a pelican if you just push the shade turrets off their platforms. I did it with my friend.

Probably you can but are you incredidably durable in it or invincible.

Pelican is invincible, just like in LNOS. The main problem with using it is hitting the button IMO. You need to make sure your Falcon stays put while hitting the button, you need to survive leaving the area despite all the Banshee probably flying around you and you need the jetpack to hit the button.

Since we are mentioning the Pelican, I feel it worth noting the Phantom is NOT invincible.

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!

I got a fun drinking game for all quad-mythicers (lolwut)

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

LNoS double tap success on first try but cannon room still alerted. Huh? I shall observe the film tomorrow to see what alert them.

EDIT: Not quite sure when I'll be able to do any mythic. School is screwing up my plans so only times are on isolated weekends where I have time.

Did you wait to kill the Grunts in the hanger before going to cannon control?

No I neglected to kill the grunts. Does that seem to be an issue with this method

This is not a new idea.

Question for Tyrant, Eli, anyone else that has or does do video editing on captured vids:

What software do you guys use for editing, adding effects, voice etc? I'm looking into Adobe Premiere Pro as it's probably the best thing available for pure editing, whereas I could easily use Audacity for voice recording etc. I'm aiming to order a Hauppauge HD PVR within the next week or so hence why I'm asking now.

Anyway, any suggestions or whatever is appreciated.



Also, Mythic.

Well this sucks: either order the PVR from overseas and buy an adapter with no guarantee that it could support it here (lousy world electrical standards), or buy it locally for a much larger sum of money.

Sigh...

I use Sony Vegas 10.

I bought my PVR from here, and it works perfectly. Took about a week, maybe two, to arrive.

Sony Vegas 9 or 10--I can't remember. I tried using Adobe Premiere Pro; it's really aimed towards professionals and therefore very difficult for amateurs like ourselves to use. Seriously, google "Adobe Premiere Pro" and look at the interface--you'll see what I mean. Hell, I can barely use Vegas as it is. Vegas doesn't take as much time, effort or sikill to familarize yourself and once you do you'll be able to do amazing things you though only professionals could do (slight exaggeration).

For voice recording, why not Windows Sound Recorder? Does it really make that much of a difference?

Well I mentioned Premiere Pro because I could easily 'buy' Adobe CS5.5...

But if Vegas is more beginner friendly, sounds good.

Yeah but does the power adapter that comes with it support our Australian power sockets? Looking at schematics etc it's likely I need to buy an adapter to go from American to Australian, though they're cheap, they also seem kinda flimsy.

E.g. something like this.

Edit: Going by the online store I assume they give you the right power plug based on the country that you input at the checkout? If so I suppose that's answered my question.

I can't recall if you mentioned ordering it in the Q4M before or after you moved to Aus so I'd assume if after it came with all the right regional equipment. Call me pedantic about this but I'm well... ok, I'm just being pedantic about this >_>

That is correct, the power plug is based on the country. I ordered mine around Christmas time (in Australia) and when I recieved it, it didn't need any form of adaptors, it was the correct format.

Sweet, good to know.

Also, I think I heard a certain Tyrant in the Halo: Community video ask Louis and Angel if they'd give Mythic a go ;)

Yes. You need to have the hallway nice and calm before triggering the opening to cannon control.

I'm less off topic talking about sockets than university ;)

Plus it goes without saying that you have our best wishes. Try to pack everything you can into your timetable: you only go to university once!

I kill everything before getting into the pelican gun. As a result it takes a while for the gun to fall off from lack of enimies to toss nades. Oh well can't do anything with this.

Well we have two new skulls confirmed: Malfunction and Boom:

"the panel disclosed two of the currently unknown total number of easter eggs. Malfunction, when activated, disables a random HUD element after each respawn, while Boom doubles explosion radiuses."

Malfunction is basically a pseudo-blind that activates upon death. We shouldn't have anything to worry about then if we never die ;) And Boom is basically the new cowbell.

Plus, I think we might actually have a skull hunt come CEA:

"343 also informed fans that skulls will not be available or functional in the so-called "Classic" mode. Skulls will also not be visible to collect outside of the remastered mode."

This could prove interesting; will we end up basically going no holds barred and let whoever can get their hands on all skulls first an easy lead, or play a more gentleman's game and wait? This November's gonna be fun alright.

Sorry I don't have much time to respond right now but here goes.

@Tyrant, sorry I couldn't be there for troubleshooting. The order is very important and youre right it is not user-friendly at all. Took me a week to set up fully. Glad its finally working!

@Aura, I use Adobe Premiere Pro and it is amazing. Very easy to use even if youre an amateur. I also use Audacity to capture my voice then import the file into Premiere to sync it with the video. EDIT: Use After Effects for editing in effects. Also, HD PVR requires Component and inserts a ton of lag while it compresses, so if you want HDMI you should go with the Black Magic Intensity Shuttle.

Excited for new skulls! I knew they'd be in there.

Thanks for the advice. In regards to the BMIS, I would go and buy one of those but the specs are really picky and it only works if you've got some really specific stuff. Maybe down the track when I can afford to upgrade the good computer, or get my own for that matter.

I don't know what Premiere Pro you're using, but in my experience it's not easy. After Effects too? All that "Creative Suite" stuff are geared towards professionals. If you can use them efficiently and use all the features they have to offer, I'm genuinely impressed.

Remember Red vs. Blue in their early years? They used Premiere Pro and After Effects extremely crudely; nothing they did in it was major. It wasn't until they hired professionals that they actually did visually amazing stuff.
