Darn, wouldn't wanna met them in MM.
I hate Mythic and Legendary, so I am not going to do anything concerning this.
Good luck to those who do however.
Actually they all suck at MM. *Looks away*


Gazas my two year old brother could trash you.

FML. I just stuck a Brute on Exodus so of course he rolled into a group of civilians before it detonated.
That run was going really well too. :-(

When the dust settles, you will learn what true terror is.

So I'm getting really sick and tired of PoA. I've only been to the Landing Pad twice; the first time I died because I didn't know fuel rods could fit through a tiny slit in the sheet metal, and the second time I just BARELY missed the final headshot before the enraged Plasma Launcher Chieftain meleed me (note to self: don't leave him to last. He enrages).

All my other deaths have been due to randomness like this.

I'm seriously considering just stopping and replaying the first two Assassin's Creed games before I end up getting Brotherhood...

Posted by: MATCLAN

Anyhow, with regards to my own Mythic quest I'm feelign particularly unmotivated after beating LNoS... Any idea why? I'd be expecting to feel full of renewed vigour after beating that mission. :-(


I experienced the same thing. I seriously just didn't feel like doing Exodus and New Alexandria (though I looked forward to The Package) but I forced myself through it because I wanted to do them in order.

I didn't know that the Chieftain would go berserk if you left him to last, I'll keep note of that.
Also, AC should totally have co-op missions.

He doesn't put away the weapon like they would in ODST/H3, but he charges you. He'll shoot until he gets close enough, then he goes for the melee. I managed to dodge plasmas while I PPed his shields off, then I DMRed off his helmet as he got closer but missed the headshot on his vulnerable face as he caught up enough to melee me into oblivion (I got caught on a rock).

And yes, AC: Brotherhood needs co-op if it doesn't have it already.

I actually LOL'ed, sorry. You actually produce some of the funniest fails, no offense.

Wait...did you just explode like a grunt? WTF?


Posted by: Gazas
I'm glad you understood my point, which was the fact that Mythic conquerors are the ownage at Campaign while they are suckage at MM. Some of the conquerors are really good though. *Looks in mirror*


Meh. I play multiplayer as a social thing; I do however think I'm quite good at it. When I hear someone speak of a game, I instantly think of the campaign; I think single-player defines a game. This is why I'm so confused when I hear people at school say, "OMG! Black Ops is awesome!!!!111!!!11!" then I say, "Oh really? I was thinking about getting it. How far are you through it?" Then to my dismay, they say "I haven't played the campaign yet."

I think that when you play multiplayer, you're not playing the game, you're playing with other people. When I play Halo: Reach multiplayer, occasionally I will play a -blam!-e game e.g. Infection on Pinnacle where I spawn as a zombie every single time and every single time the humans hide in the big tower and I have no choice but to run at them with the sword and die multiple frustrating times (before you say something stupid like "LOL, you suck." please note that there is pretty much no limit to the amount of kills a human can get in one round; the only limiting thing is ammo and the time limit; even with the ammo limit, a human could theoretically continue to get kills through melee attacks. There is only a few kills a zombie can get in a round. This means on average, a human gets more points than a zombie. This wouldn't be so bad if I didn't start as a zombie every single round. It's reprehensible that "Living Dead" is in the "Competitive" playlist). When that happens, I start another game, hoping the next one will be better. If that happened to me in single player where the game is so poorly designed, I throw out the game. The quality of multiplayer depends on the people almost as much as it depends on the developers to make it good. The quality of single-player however relies purely on the developers.

Oh, so many misunderstandings in this thread. xD

Skill in Campaign and skill in Multiplayer are very different to each other which is why a good Mythic player can suck at multiplayer and vice versa. As for your opinion on them, I guess that's a different subject (although I too like Campaign more. =) )

Well, that's an example of poor gameplay design. I still think you should get a free civie kill before your team mates turn on you. Even in that case, you should be able to run away. It's amazing that you can watch the civilians take so much damage from spikers and needlers but as soon as you need them to not die from a nearby grenade...

Heh, I just thought of something. Sorry to rehash bad memories, but:

I'm sorry.


Loathing! Unadulterated loathing! It's so pure, it's so strong! Though [he does] admit it came on fast, still [he does] believe that it can last! And [he] will be, loathing, loathing you [his] whole life long!

I'm really sorry. I need to take a break from that soundtrack. I'm getting a little sick of it myself. What am I saying; it's awesome!

Can we all get along? Kthxbai

#1 Legendary ODST Firefight Highscore

[UNINTELLIGIBLE > INSUBORDINATION(?)]

I've just cleared the comm room( thank god), but I am unsure of how to entice the enemies from the hanger into the hallway. I've set up not only a box for my protection, but a barrier closer to the door to prevent elites galavanting around with their deadly hoofs.

The elites will rush after their grunt allies die. Be warned though, as after 3/4 of the grunts have fallen the elites will rush very quickly. They will ussually come one at a time, but they will all be rather quick at rushing you. And the box will do you no good (well, a little), as the low gravity allows it to float away with very little force.

No offense taken. I'm sure I'll be laughing at my fails too, once I beat PoA. And yes, I rock the Birthday Party armor effect... it eases the pain of failure...

I just watched your PoA Archer, very well done. It felt so tense when the brutes rushed you on the landing pad, and its nuts how the whole mission comes down to those last two shots off the mass driver...

But those games are soo easy! Do you resume and practice the last section? I did that a lot and I think it helped since the first time I actually got to the landing pad in one piece, I completed the level.

*Infection Issues*
If that happened to me in single player where the game is so poorly designed, I throw out the game. The quality of multiplayer depends on the people almost as much as it depends on the developers to make it good. The quality of single-player however relies purely on the developers.

Those Infection issues are all design issues though. One way up, tight corners, small barriers so evading up there will likely fly you off the map, open approach, the fact that there is no 'best players in last round become zombies' option in the gametypes, and finally and the fact that Bungie honestly seems to think killing a human is just as valuable as killing a zombie. For these issues, we can entirely blame bungie.

Its not your allies turning on you, you literally self destruct.

Likewise with my 1.76. Mythic actually helped me considerably with MM back in H3 and it's only done good so far. Mythic also gave me the 'twitchy effect' as I call it that helps with instant cursor-to-head positioning in swat, snipers etc.

Wow, I really need to clarify my posts. I knew that you drop dead when you kill a civilian. I meant that you should get a free civilian kill; if you got one more, all that should happen is that your team mates turn on you. The team mates turning on you would be good game design; because they don't, it's bad game design.

Logically, this doesn't work. You're assuming that the only good design option would be to have teammates turning on you and arguing that it's bad design because that is not what happens.

I'm not disagreeing with your point that it would be better design to have your teammates turn on you rather than spontaneously combusting, just pointing out fallacious logic. File this under the same kind of thing where you cringe every time Tyrant improperly uses the word "literally."

I dont understand how everyone's having problems with civilians on Exodus. I must have had to run through that level a hundred times, and I didn't even know that killing civilians restarted your checkpoint until I read about everyone on here. I guess I just let my civis die :P

On a side note, I want me some multi-mythic.
