Halo 3: ODST

[Ouch!]

Also, which part of Tsavo Highway?

At the very end with a bunch of brutes. I got a little careless and the one thing that could actually kill me (the sniper) got a good hit in. I haven't tried seriously since losing then, and now I can't until my console is repaired.

Thunderstorm isn't that bad. The saving grace of it is it that it doesn't give any enemies any better weapons, which is really the biggest problem with higher ranked enemies. I'm also pretty sure it doesn't upgrade any enemies to hero level, so no extra hammer brutes with invincibility and :bou::bou::bou::bou: like that. Of the skulls I've mentioned, famine really is the most difficult to deal with of the bunch. You'll find yourself using a hell of a lot of weapons you never otherwise expected to.

[Aerith's Knight]

How do you activate these skulls?

[Ouch!]

The menu with the skulls is opened by pressing X in the campaign lobby.

Grunt Birthday Party and IWHBYD should be automatic for any and all playthroughs.

[Aerith's Knight]

I think I'm going to try it with Black eye, Fog, Mythic and Tough luck.

[Quindiana Jones]

You're too scared to play Halo with me and you know it.

Haha, I haven't played online since July and I still sucked even with practice. So...yes. The saddest thing is that I got on Live to play Halo online, but then only played it for a week or so before getting bored. Ranked matches ruined my life.

Haha, I always steal a Wraith and just plough into them from afar with the mortar. There's usually one or two left, but they're no problem.

May have to try some levels with Thunderstorm then. Although, I'm way out of practice. Just tried the first level on Heroic for the first time in 2 months. Died four times, and had barely any 1 hit kills with the sniper. Jesus.

YES. Always these, Catch and Cowbell. Always.

I can beat that, I did the same, only I hadn't played it in over a year now. Not counting a few MP games at a buddy, not for over a year and a half.

[Quindiana Jones]

When I played today, my sensitivity was on the once usual 7. I had no control over it and had to dial it down to 3. Freaking 3. Back up to 5 now, but my God. It's surprising how quickly you lose the knack of some games.

[Aerith's Knight]

Weird. I've always had it at 5, even when I first started playing the xbox. But then again, I've never went higher than that.

See there's your problem right there. Ranked matches. Don't go into Ranked matches. Ever. "But but but e-penis! I don't want to be a ty sergeant! I want to be a Colonel!" No, you really smurfing don't. If you really must, do not do it when you're a ty baby nubcake. Build up a hell of a lot of experience in Social first. I would gladly throw away my rank in an instant tbh. I could become a General if I wanted to - any EoFFer I've played with can testify I am better than most of the scrubs with a 50 to their names - but I don't because A) The grind would be the worst smurfing thing imaginable and B) I would only be matched up against other Generals from then on and thus every game would be smurfing hell.

Halo 3 is one of the best games ever when you play with friends in social, dicking about and shooting the . Playing it alone and for a rank is terrible and I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

I can vouch that Psy could easily make 50 if he wanted to, but it's a pretty diabolical road to get there. I could too (Though he's better than I am), but for the same reason I don't bother. I don't mind playing alone but yeah ranking stuff is just an atrocity.

Also those RvBs really make Firefight look balls out awesome

[Iceglow]

Psy a 50 oh hells bells yes. DK too if he really wanted.

However I've been in games with people with a 50 next to their name they're generally speaking pricks who'll betray for a weapon they want to use because it's ok to betray your team because you have 50 skill and they don't. They'll also berate and insult anyone who doesn't perform up to their standard because they might ruin their 50 skill! OH NOES THEIR PRECIOUS SKILL! Seriously every single time I'm in a game with a 50 I feel like smurfing the game up on purpose and making our team lose so he'll drop to 49 skill. Hell, one of the two 50's I have ever played against in a game I played better than him that game (it was team ranked snipers, seeing why I didn't get my achievement) my team won the game easily probably because he was the only person on their team with 50 skill and we decided he was the goal if you had a shot it didn't matter if you'd die 2 seconds after firing you took it and someone else would back you up and avenge you (the americans I was with were very good too in the 40's both had built up purely on Team Snipers too) As a result that 50 skill general just became a walking death trap for the other team since we'd gang up on him alone. We also had the fact that he got a mere 5 kills because everytime he thought he had 1 of us we'd be killed by someone else having at least tagged him.

I'm only 10 skilled because I don't tend to enter ranked matches, ok so I went to 10 skill on a slow journey up the Team snipers ranks with Psy purely I think because Psy was sick of seeing me as Gunnery Sargeant grade 2. I spend nearly ALL my online time in Halo 3 on Social in Ranked I tend to end up cussing out stupid americans who get pissy with me for being either good or bad in a game.

[Psychotic]

I didn't care about your rank. I did it because you're my friend and you wanted your achievement. I'd be a ty friend if I didn't want to help.

But yeah Dan and Huxley could be 50's too if they gave enough of a . Zach couldn't, though. He's only good enough to be a 49.

[DK]

Yeah the EoFF crew has had more matches than I could possibly count where we've stuck it up the General's asses to know we could hit the rank if we wanted to (hell, I am pretty sure almost every single game of Halo we've ever played together since finishing our ranked career has been Me, Paul and a bunch of lieutenants against a bunch of generals, brigadiers, and colonels and we've done pretty well for ourselves) but it's pointless e-peen bull at the end of the day. As Paul said I'd gladly throw it away to be able to be a Staff Captain. Hell just the satisfaction of royally pissing off the MLG loving failures who dedicate their lives solely to playing Halo 3 and being a general by totally raping them when you're a crap rank is worth not bothering with it, not even considering the amount of awful that constitutes a ranked match on Halo. SWAT is about the only ranked playlist I can be arsed with.

I can't simply on the basis that I don't have patience. Also smurf you.
