Subject: Easiest way to get "This just happened" achievement!!!!

-The Big Boss-

every time u get a checkpoint to save and quit and if you die to go to the dashboard and go back to the game. You will start at your checkpoint with your death count reset to zero making the achievement "that just happened", much easier. Stop watching the speed runs and other videos and just follow this simple trick!


I'm not trolling I'm dead serious I've tried it myself earlier

I have no idea? I wish that I would have known about this when I got the Achievement. Oh well.

If you really want it, just get a partner to do all of the work while you stay behind? That is what I did.

Wait... what? It was confirmed you couldn't get it that way. As soon as someone died the achievement is blown for everyone.

Omg! I tried it and it works!

If you go o the dashboard as soon as you die, it really does reset it! This made the achievement soooo much easier

I'm going to try this later. If it works, I'm going to come back here and virtually shake your hand.


So let me get this straight. You can die all you want throughout the level, but as long as you save, quit, and go the dashboard, and come back and make to the end without dying, you get it?

I think this would HAVE to work actually. Since the part where you died isn't saved, it's as if anything past your last save (save meaning save and quit, not just getting a checkpoint) never happened.

Holy -blam!-, it worked!!! Awesome find man! I died twice thanks to some dang rocket Flood and my own grenade that flew towards me after another explosion. Yet, I still got the achievement! The instant you see yourself die, immediately hit the guide button and go to the dashboard.

Obviously not, because that is how I got it?

Not the best suggestion. If you stick and enemy they may jump at you causing you to die. That happened to me a few times but luckily I survived.

If you are going to throw Plasma Grenades, I would recomend throwing them down at the ground rather than just sticking them. I myself used Farg Grenades during the process of getting the Achievement.

Huh. Did you do it online or local? Local is an absolute no, but I've heard mixed stories about doing it online. Seems like if you do it over XBL your partner IS allowed to die.

Nope. I did it via Xbox LIVE.

I tried the Reach way you guys were describing and it didn't work; was just looking down one of the shafts to see how it looked and fell. Quit and saved and made it, but no achievement. The legit way is to always think about defense: Always be backing up and ignore everything the Monitor says. Is easy to forget about defilade - how you can turn a simple corner and be at an advantage...always think about dropped grenades and execute Flood management. Except for one particular area, this mindset will get you through the whole thing on Legendary.

Oh come on. It's not that hard.

Seriously. Especially because I know you kids are using Bandanna and playing on Heroic.

So I need to go right back to the xbox live dashboard and reload the game?
