I'm too scared to do this. Bungie has banned people for yanking out their ethernet cables to reset challenges.
Will they ban me for this?

No, you're only earning the challenges credits once. Albiet quickly and cheaply.


So Bungie considers this trick on the same level as ONI's target locator trick i.e. it's fair game?

Are you sure? Because if I do this and I lose all my credits, THE BLOOD OF MY INCLEMENT WEATHER IS ON YOUR HANDS.

I'm a little mad, ok, I'm very mad, I was going to try poa offline because my internet is garbage (for now) and I got an awesome fail. Problem being, "this content was created offline and cannot be uploaded to your file share"

Yeah I think that policy is a little overzealous sometimes.

(I have none of you guys added or attempted to add, it would be cool but I don't want to pester any of you)
I'll add you. Send me a message on XBL if you want and I'll clear out a space for you. I have tons of randomers on my friendslist that I have never played with so I'm sure I can find someone to kick :P

Long Night of Solace 12 skull run. 31 minutes and cleared comms room zero deaths from start. Only one death which I don't count because saber buddy barrel rolls into me after clearing the 4 seraph wave.

I gather neither of you watched the vid? It's a trick from the campaign where you save & quit 2-3 seconds after finishing the level, tricking the game into thinking you've saved on the ending cutscene. You return to the lobby and it just says resume game, and on doing so about 5 seconds pass at a black screen with the Y for skip and you're returned to the lobby again, and you rinse and repeat.

It's for doing the Flawless Cowboy and Demon commendations, no ethernet cord yanking involved. Jesus guys, jumping to conclusions before you even watch the damn video.

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!

Thanks, I'll do it tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get internet that is good again soon so I can play online again (it can't stop me from score attack!)

That reminds me, need to get the last 4 achievements I need in Gears 2 whilst the 25x exp week is on; 2 more horde achievements (the only enemies are tickers but it takes forever), Party like it's 1999 (need another 400+ rounds for that), and Seriously 2.0 (need to grind another 60000 kills in campaign...).

I also looked back and I can easily see how you'd get confused--but I did mean what RC Master said I meant.

Eli, when I've got time I'll do what you did in your video. HBO recommended it and I don't think they'd post a link to a video that showed you how to commit bannable offenses.

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

Yea, it makes me wonder why the PoA LASO challenge was worth so little in comparison to those other two weeklies.

Heh, yeah. I've put of updating my LNos run too: I know a sub-30 is possible and want a nice run to show on HSH but I haven't got around to it. I hate that level on Mythic. I'll tell you though: it's a total breeze on Heroic! WOW!

I've already done 8 missions this week in Co-op Campaign, so I'm not doing any more this week. To me, the weekly now say "Mythic: Pillar of Autumn". 30,000 sounds like a nice enough reward, even if I dont care about credits much anymore.

The real issue I have is that my Gamertag apparently is hated by Microsoft now, so I'm not sure how I'll be able to upload the film to my file share when I do it, considering I don't want to pay to change my 4-year old Gamertag.

Initially MS had issues with random users who had spaces in their GT's from uploading content to their fileshare's. It seems apparent that now that issue is even more enforced.

Nothing you can really do besides try to contact 343 or just change your GT so that there's no spaces.

I don't see how 343 could help, since it's a general X-Box Live issue from what I understand.

But yeah, I have just changed it to "Iblitazer". One thing hasn't been fixed...the creator of the Breakpoint Canvas I have hasn't got a name allowed online either...so I'll need to get a new Breakpoint Canvas and rebuild the map I was making on it. <_< Good to go for Mythic films, though.

I've been longing to change my Gamertag (and username -_-) for a long time. I bought some Microsoft Points while here (in Australia), but they didnt work my account because its English, yes, Microsoft Points are set by region. I'd have to have someone in UK buy me some, but that won't happen. So I'm stuck with this gamertag, along with others things, like lack of DLC.

Regarding my return to speedrunning, Space Marine is taking a little longer than I expected, I probably wont be back for long before Gears is out.

I thought changing your account region automatically fixed that stupid problem. Maybe your account needs to be an adult one to work. Speaking of which, I can finally upgrade mine to an adult one tomorrow for my 18th :D

I doubt I'll be back to speedrun PoA at the rate Seriously 2.0 is gonna take me in Gears 2. Need it and Party Like It's 1999 with 53524 kills and 379 more rounds respectively. Gonna be one long and boring weekend of grinding...
