Hey anybody got any advice for the Halo players that 1) They have no one to play multi-player with and 2) already beat Campaign Mode or they are tired of the same thing over and over??? Any thing that you can do to entertain yourself when this happens??? Please post any suggestions.

I feel your pain bud. I'm in the same boat. Here is what I do when I don't feel like actually playing campaign:

1) Warthog jumps
2) Try to drive the warthog places it shouldn't be
3) Try to find shortcuts
4) Play around with the frozen marine glitch
5) If your feeling tough enough try for the Megg egg
6) Try different ways of getting on top of maps

well mp maps tend to break down to a couple of methods.

1) Rocket jump - you create a game type with 400% shields and rockets than use the rocket jump/grenade jump method to get you up off the map.

2) Pushing - use the ghost/warthog to push you up off maps. there are some videos on HBO you can watch for the technique


cruise around HBO and check out the tricks section and try to duplicate them. hours of entertainment there.

i have the same problem. anyway, find new ways to beat the covies (and flood), from dentonating stocks of nades, to using the pistol to blow floods arms off and have them follow you the entire level.

I'm gonna do AotCR without firing any shots. But if I use the warthog, do I let marines shoot the minigun? im thinkin not, but I haven't really decided.

i did one level with only whackin and runnin over people. runnin over just kidna goes with whackin. i also did one with only covie weapons so my partner could get better at rapid firing the plasma pistol but he still sucks and will always suck... covie weapons= anythin with plasma as the first part of their name. so not needlers, although they suck so i don't use them anyways. my partner uses them but the needles explode before they reach what hes shootin at and i keep tellin him its useless but... anyways. all AR might be fun if theres enough ammo. maybe on normal though... and i always give myself the option to whack when setting rules like this.

I had this same problem for a while.....I suggest downloading the halo demo for the PC. it allows you to play multiplayer (up to 16 people per game) at blood gulch only. The demo will only let you play CTF or slayer type games, but its free, and as far as i know you have unlimited access to play.

The PC version is much harder (at least for me) than xbox, but its just as entertaining.
