We need a new way of dealing with Long Night's Focus Rangers. What I've seen so far is sh**ty and impractical for the average gamer. It can take several minutes to get one's shields down, and unless you have a monster-size TV, you won't know unless you zoom in every few shots.
We need to figure out a way to close the gap...
What? Thats one of the areas I have the least problems with! Either I get stupid -blam!- deaths in space, or I die in the comms room, or the freakin' grunts in front of the freakin' globe on the bridge screw everything up.
Get this: the only time I've yet managed to get from mission start through the comms room in one peice, I get to the bridge and there are 2 freakin' Grunts staring at the globe! I try to just take out the General sneakily, but they spot me and alert everyone sending me running all the way back across the room only to die a couple of metres from the exit with a concussion rifle round to the back of my head.
To top it off, I had never got the General to go crouch-idle behind that pillar before. 2 resumes later, he does it almost straight away after I kill the rest of the enemies!! BLAM YOU GENERAL!!!!
Cannon control is a breeze. The last few times I've been there, I've managed to assassinate both of the Elites.
Oh, and speaking of -blam!- space deaths, anyone know how the hell this happened? Nothing near me, only 5 hits from full shields (and the sabre still had shields even after I had died) and I still just die.
I hate this level. I hate whoever designed it. I hate the unskippable cutscenes. I hate how boring and time consuming and frustrating the space section is. I hate how useless the other sabres are (they hit ME more than they hit the seraphs!) I hate how the only target they spend more than half a second shooting at is ME! The only bit I like is inside the Corvette, and only after the comms room.

Annnnd New Alexandria is finished. Amazing how much easier this level is when you don't get the hospital first (happened to me about all of my attempts until this one).
...and someone has already done the leg work for you :P
Speaking of which, I've updated the locations descriptions on page 12 to include information on two more objectives that were missing (Misriah complex (elites and engineers) and another Buck Escort mission (phantom, squad pinned)). I've also taken a bunch of pictures (and am going to take several more) and post a full pictorialized guide soon (probably on HBO, including my made-up names for some of the buildings :P)
Yes, in term of Mythic, Long Night indeed sucks. And I'm not exactly sure what the deal is with the unskippable cutscenes. I mean really, did anyone actuall enjoy Gravemind and Cortana's constant banterin in Halo 3 over and over again? I'm pretty sure I made a note of it in both versions of the Halo 3 Mythic guides. Come on, Bunglez! :-P
