I run in and just open fire on the first covenant i see. I just start spraying bullets at them until the whole room is empty. It is either that or get in their face and hit them to death. (it works and saves ammo)

Well i just wanted to know what you do. Do u go in guns blazing or are u more of the stealth type?

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

It depends on difficulty.
easy + normal = guns blazing and melees
heroic + ledgendary = whatever i can + stealth

Take out most of the grunts, then the Eliete, the jackels, then mop up the grunts that had thus far survived my rath.

usually i like stealth + melee... stealth for me means staying hidden and head shots, melee means from behind, -smack!- enemy dead. never fails me.

Anyway that will ensure their corpses to be lying on the floor, also depends on the situation.If everyone is napping I make sure they don't wake up, If they know i'm there then anything goes (usually boom).

I just blow their heads off with a shotgun or charge a plasma pistol and pistol to the head.

Since i'm currently playing on legendary, my preference is a lot of sniping, pistol whipping from behind, a lot of grenades for the elites, and overall anything that doesnt get me killed.

Stealth all the way, especially with the Hunters. Gotta love sidestepping em then take em out with one shot to the back.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

i would definately have to say stealth and melee's to the back, especially when on legendary, any time i can curcumvent a troop of covenant i will, then come from behind and bash my way though them with melee's.

I try stealth at first. Either snipe 'em or hit in back. As soon as an enemy detects me, I try grenade. Then, as a last resort, I go in all guns blazing.

Stealth if possible, but Halo provides so many tactical situations that one strategy cannot apply to all of them.

It depends on my environment.Like if I'm in assault on the control room,I go in bullets flying everywhere!It's fun!!But,if I'm only near a few enemies,like say a couple of grunts,I'll just bash their heads in.Whoohoo!!!!!!
