Subject: How many times did you try Endure before you got it?

I tried it last week, and got to the last wave, last round, last set, three guys left. Long story short, we all died...because of a Hammer Chieftan. So I am not interested in trying it again after investing two hours and fifteen minutes of my life (two hours and fifteen minutes I will not get back) into that achievement at the moment. Now it wouldn't be an accomplishment if it weren't hard, so I'll stop complaining now.

My question to you guys, is how many times did you try it before you got it? And how close were you were until you died and got frustrated and threw your controller against the wall, having it shatter into pieces (hypothetically of course)?

#1 Legendary ODST Firefight Highscore

[UNINTELLIGIBLE > INSUBORDINATION(?)]

3rd time round we got it. 3 of us were dead/AFK and the last guy went all ninja on the last wave and owned them all.

I got lucky and got it first try. I was even the last one during the round to survive with a half dozen enemies left. It was intense, for sure.

I might do it again, just not with the people I did it with. Not...fully entertaining.

Actually, I find that I'm more invincible without pants, which is why I am not wearing any at the moment.

Just one. Not as hard as everyone says.

I got it on my second try.

Yeah, its not really too hard, but I mean people's connections always make the game end early...happened to me twice so far. Still looking for a solid group to do Endure with.

I haven't gotten it yet, i almost did but then everyone lagged out it took me around that time too.

  • 07.29.2011 2:13 PM PDT

Same thing happened to me when i tried it over a year ago. We had like 6 lives when we hit the last wave, but all my teamates thought it was done and started being retarded and we lost all of our lives.

Stupid 12 yr olds

Three.

First Try: Me and one other person each signed in a second controller (inactive). We actually got pretty far (mid set 3).

Second Try: Picked up two more players. Started out fine, until one of the FNGs "turned their router off." 1) Why turn your router off mid game? 2) Who EVER turns their router off?

Third Try: Same people. Very laggy throughout. Completed Endure after 2.5 hours.

Completing the achievement isn't the difficult part. Finding reliable teammates (with solid connections) is.

Got It 3rd time, first time did it on Lost Platton, which takes a bit longer anyway , approx. 3 hours into it Last Man had sniper & spartan laser on roof of building & he was swarmed by Drones in the 4th set , 5 enemies left to get to 5th.
