Subject: Ah Campaign again

So this account is fairly new, it has the Halo 2 name plate but thats because i had just come back from quitting xbox for awhile and made a new account an played a lot of customs, some time before it was taken down but after Halo 3 came out.

Anyway it does not have the Halo 2 campaign done yet, so i am re enjoying some great memories and doing it again. On Legendary Ofc. Just for some self accomplishment, and this account im a stat whore you could say. Well not really stats, just like having the games i play on it "beat".

Anybody else recently re do the campaign? or plan to?


Edit: Got used to playing Halo 2 again, really surprised i still can quad fairly good still. Nothing what it was back in the day but its getting back to its old self.

If only there were still tournaments or LANs for Halo 2 in my area still. Would be really fun.

Also

Either Ive gotten worse or the campaign some how got harder. It seems so much harder than i remember it >.<


Probably due to the lack of playing and playing other games, not used to Halo 2 anymore.



Yes, im doing a heroic run through. I love the Halo 2 BR, that thing is damn acurate.

Yeah, dont we all love the Halo 2 BR.

Im quite surprised i can quad still fairly well. I had such an amazing quadshot back in the day, it was also one of the fastest. It took me hours to warm up though to beable to hit it almost every time. Good times, although a bit depressing lol

I've been playing it over and over again on normal difficulty recently to explore all of the nooks in the levels that I previously missed. There are some really awesome ones, too.

Plasma rifle is your friend. Against Ultra Elites of course.

Use noob combo, plasma grenade sticks, frags, long distance plasma pistol overcharge + headshot, sniper, etc. on lower ranking and special (i.e. ranger) ones.

  • 07.04.2011 8:31 AM PDT

I'm replaying all the Halo campaigns on Legendary, finished Halo CE a few days ago, I forgot how freakin hard that was!

I'm on Halo 2 right now, currently started the level The Arbiter. Personally I think Halo 2 is easy on Legendary (well a hell lot easier than CE) I forgot how much I loved the campaign and storyline, glad I'm replaying it. I love all the dialouge the marines and all of them say to, man I miss those days. I heard an elite say "There sniper, he lives!" When Johnson was sniping then, I lold so hard. Then in Halo CE on POA I heard a marine say "Get your own ride Spartanburg!" when I was going towards the life boat, such good memories.

Already beat it bro ;) but thanks for trying to help.

I was actually really surprised on the skull showing up first try, vid i watched was great and was a quick method, you dont need all those check points an whatever everyone thinks.

I remember spending hours trying to get the dang skull to show up an failing with those other methods lol

Yup, you only really need the sniper alley CP, all others don't matter.

Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

i play still play HALO 2's campagin now and then, finish the campaign on easy, normal and heroic every 3 months but only once a year on legendary.
HALO 2 had the best campaign IMO in terms of story and maps/locations. i have great memories of playing co-op with friends back in 2004 - 2005 during the games glory days. cairo station, metropolis, ouskirts, great journey and gravemind were really fun levels.
i enjoy HALO 2s music as well, wish i could go back in time and re-live all the excitement of HALO 2's campaign and multiplayer back when it was the best, good times.

  • 07.04.2011 5:37 PM PDT

Finished the campaign abit ago.

@path, yeah the music from Halo 2 still gives me chills ;)

@grumpy, i found that out :) i guess more info about was found out that wasnt known back then and its secret revealed.

I think the 1 7 on the wall refers to the sniper you pick up right next to it. If you dont take Johnsons sniper and pick up the one next to the skull it will need to be reloaded and will have 17 reload.

I did beat the waves of spec ops, i thought there was suppose to be 7 waves? Seemed rather short to me, maybe 4 or 5 waves. Who knows though, i was too busy trying not to die an kill them to keep count.

Yeah, we don't really know about the 17 but it could also be the 1 in 7 chance that the skull appears.

I swear I've probably beat the campaign 50 times. Hands down by far far the best in the series

This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.

Account Status: Silver :(

Just replayed the campaign. As empty as the first time I played it. Not only is it the worst halo campaign, but it's not even better than the average game.

Then I suggest you not play it anymore, that's what I do when I don't like a game. I've never felt the urge to go on a forum of a game I don't like and complain to people who do like the game. If it gets your rocks off keeping us informed as to how much you dislike H2, then have fun.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

That pretty much sums up what I was going to say.

Reach fanboy? I barely play Reach. I play CE with my friends in real life all the time. CE is the best, halo 3 is second, and Reach is third. I don't see how you think I'm a Reach fanboy. Oh, the name? Yeah, I made it before Halo Reach came out...the day they announced his name. I do like Reach times more than Halo 2, but I don't like Reach that much. Please.

you actually prefer 3's campaign over 2? 3 didnt have a good story or any good locations. the only good part in it IMO was using the mongoose for the first time: 6 mongooses with rocket launcher equiped marines waiting for the door to open - that part was quite epic but it didnt have any other good parts. the final level was terrible.

halo 2 on the other hand was a leap from C.E: dual wielding weapons, jacking vehicles, boss fights, lock-on rocket launchers, using the sword! + other endless factors made its multiplayer and campaign spectacular! 3 years of mind blowing gameplay, i will miss it

halo 3's multiplayer was decent - not a shocker like C.E or 2, not a failure either like reach. needler not as fun to use because it gets easy kills and cant be dual wielded. maps could have been better (valhalla was a dissapointment when comparing to blood gulch/coagulation) + other reasons why its multiplayer is average but believe me on this one: halo 3's campaign = epic fail!

the new brute vehicles are terrible, should of kept the spectre, the elites and more so the brutes where pathetic: fact that brutes shaved of their fur and aren't as crazy as they where in 2 forever ruined them, their berserk was quite unconvincing while in 2 a berserking brute will have you run back to the other half of the map! shouldve kept the brute plasma rifle and never included the mauler IMO. elites armour in 3 looks too robotic
their simple, reptilian like appearance in 2 is bada55. at least 3 looks better then reaches elites: their armour is -BLAM!- stupid!

only thing new about halo 3's campaign seemed to be 343 guilty sparks boss fight, her fight wasnt even fun. tartarus, prophet of regret and heretic leader ftw

no point going into detail about halo reach, its campaign and multiplayer is boring, multiplayer could have been more fun if it had better maps but 2 is still superior. however the DMR is a pretty cool weapon so credit goes to bungie for puting that into the game, would never have thought of a cross between a BR and an SR.

another thing which made halo 2 more fun was its pistol, the m6c was so fun to use: high rof, medium damage, low range - how a pistol is meant to be + its design is awesome. ODST's pistol was good because of the silencer but not as fun to use because it couldnt be dual wielded. C.E's pistol was more like a DMR - could kill enemies right on the other side of blood gulch but 3's pistol was pathetic. thick design, dull plating, ridiculous recoilk considering its damage and limited ammo/ really should have had a higher ROF, maybe 2 more bullets a clip but yeah, plenty of other easons why 2 is still better.

its strange that halo 2's campaign was never a main feature of the game but is still the best campaign of the series while reach was the first game (i think, not sure about wars) to have a featured campaign but it turned out to be one of the worst campaigns in the series

As asked a thousand times before hand, if you hate Halo 2 so much why do you continue to lurk in the Halo 2 forums an complain?

Not better than the average game? Thats why during its time Halo 2 was the only reason people got an xbox or live? Thats why when you asked PS2 users why they changed to xbox and their answer was simply Halo 2. Thats why Halo 2 made gaming and xbox live what it is today? Yeah not even an average game.

We all know you played Halo 2 a lot even though you "hate" it. Wouldn't make sense if you didn't based on how much you complain about it still. You are no better than the majority of the Reach forum.

We get you like CE, a lot of people do. Same deal with Halo 2, 3, Reach. If you don't like it, don't bother with it. Why you still do is beyond me.


Refrain from posting in my threads in the future because all you do is complain an start arguments, theres a CE and Reach forum made just for you, go to it.


Edit: @Path

I believe the time line goes something like Reach, Wars, CE, Halo 2, ODST, Halo 3. Not sure on that though.
