Subject: Question about campaign.

I have beaten all but the last two levels of campaign on Heroic, but in between, my friend played on easy mode. I thought that since it said it wouldn't delete my VISR COMM data, I'd be able to pick up where I left off, like in Halo 3.

So, even though I have beaten each one, do I have to restart and complete them all in one go to reach the last two? That would really suck.

Hi, as far as I am aware you will not have to restart and complete them all,just sign in to the profile you are using for the Heroic campaign and continue the last 2 levels on heroic and you will have finished the whole campaign on Heroic.Hope this helps...

PS: When you choose a mission the emblems defining the diffculty will display the one you are playing or have finished,I.E. Easy,Heroic etc. This indicates you have completed the mission on a particular diffculty.

Yeah, that's the thing... I didn't want to have to walk to the next mission, so I just went to "Replay Mission" and chose the one I hadn't done yet. When I finished it, it still had the others as objectives. They are all currently finished on Heroic, just not in the same playthrough, which I'm guessing means I have to redo all of them in the same playthrough to advance.

VISR COMM Data isn't your checkpoint mate. When you choose to load a new game, that is your checkpoint. The data is in reference to your datapads and terminals. All the SI stuff.

Have you ever beaten the game? If so, just go to the campaign lobby. Choose a level. Choose one of the levels you haven't beaten yet. Play it. It'll count. When it loads you back to New Mombasa Streets, save and quit. Go back into the Campaign lobby. Choose the last level you haven't beaten yet.

To beat New Mombasa Streets on Heroic/Legendary, simply load the level 'Mombasa Streets.' Work your way to a clue. Once the flashback loads, it'll count as having been beaten on Heroic/Legendary.

Yeah, I just found out it needs to be on the same playthrough. I guess I could play through on Easy, then go back and beat them on Heroic. Meh, that's mildly annoying...
