Circumsizing then castrating?

Ouch... but i realised a lot of the maps are reamped Halo 2 maps

Like the japanese one and the Sky one with the wierd tower thing in the middle. I loved that tower map tho since i knew all the short cuts and how to jump the gaps.
 
really? i just got it recently. i find it hard on normal too, but i do want to try legendary co-op. when you on? let see if we can multiplayer together.

I am usually on most of the time. But I would rather really do it Solo because we get both acheivements like that. Nut you can add me for Multiplayer or campaign challenges if you want :monster: Nephilim713 is my gamertag.
 
I've also noticed I get like 3x more Rank Advancement in Campaign solo as opposed to Co-Op. It's kind of a bummer, but it's hard to notice or think about when you have a bunch of skulls on with a legendary difficulty setting. :wacky:

the if they came to hear me beg achievement makes me want to kill myself :gasp2:
 
Just wanted to say that I hit Lieutenant Colonel and I am damn proud of it. My guy looks so badass now. It isnt even long to hit grade 3 anyway. 30000 credits each level.
 
Okay....

My roommate got Halo Reach and I managed to play the first 2 Levels on Normal Difficulty. After playing through I realize...I died more often in those 2 levels alone than I died in my first entire playthrough of Halo 3 on the same difficulty. O_O
 
If anyone wans to know all of the Halo Reach ranks in order http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Rank_(Halo:_Reach) Lets just say inheritor takes a total no life and it will take 3-4 years to get. At least people will play like that though
 
oh goody. i can play online together then kevin.

but i do have to say, its so much easier to die in reach. i cant play riskily anymore.
 
Yeah, my old playing style, it is not practical. It's gonna be a total hell once I head into Legendary...

Oh gawd, I can imagine the horror it takes to be a god. (referring to the name of the achievement.)

Eh so far Heroic Reach has been a breeze for me, and surprisingly Legendary has been a bit of a weeze. <_<

Halo 3 had a lot more stimulative thought invoking enemies and maps, Halo Reach's campaigns just kind of feel like half cooked eggs with shitty bacon and burnt toast in comparison.

If you want to know how you're going to die in Halo: Reach, it's pretty easy to determine how you died. An elite (or a kamekaze grunt) killed you, durr

The interaction with enemy AI is not very gripping in comparison to past games like ODST and Halo 3. It's pretty disappointing, I can barely stand going through Legendary levels just because it's so much bullshit to put up with hordes of elites.

(so there is no misunderstanding here, I'm talking about flying solo.)

their health restores over time, and they have shields just like any player. feels like killing a Restoration Druid with a Particle Beam grafted onto it's back :monster:

edit: no, it feels like trying to kill 4 restoration druids with particle beam cannons grafted onto their backs :gasp2:
 
Well, i shotgun rush. Im very good in getting close within the limit of my shield. The problem is, this shield is crapper. its all range now. I especially hate the plasma launchers as they do splash on me, but hardly any on enemies.

NOW, im much better in head shotting with the DMR, so i guess its all good.
 
I've always been good with Battle Rifles, gonna take time getting used to the Semi-Auto of the DMR, but from my last playthrough, I have no problem with headshots (coming from a guy who usually has 1 in 4 chance of that happening)
 
I am really good with the Designated Marksman Rifle for some reason. It is sort of my preferred weapons and I pul off headshots really easy with it. Legendary on Reach Solo is literally impossible once you hit new Alexandria. So I started playing some Arena lately and I got a positive K/D in that also. I was going negative when I first played it.
 
the DMR bores me, single shot battles arent that appealing. but i do love the Needle Rifle even though its one shot as well it seems to be a lot more accurate. Im all about the Sniper just like in every other Halo game. this sniper makes no scopes so easy and just overall easier to use so im happy with it. :D
 
Everyone seems to like the DMR, I can't really say I favor it for PvP, though.

I usually like an Assault Rifle/Plasma Pistol/Plasma Repeater/Rifle and Needler. For Campaigns though, the DMR is a pretty indispensable tool for cleaning out the Jackals and Grunts.

I have to say though, I miss dual wielding Plasma Rifles. :gasp2:
 
All I can say on this one Derek is that the Dmr works great for a new weapon. The battle rifle in halo 3 became so overated that I literally got so sick of it, I really favor the Dmr more than that Br. The br made halo 3 boring after a while. Plasma rifles were fun to dual weild. But in halo 2 you can dual weild needlers which were so weak but Fast as fuck xD.
 
Well, I haven't gotten to New Alexandria yet in my roomate's game, but I'm confident that you are all just bad pilots. :lew:

Then again, I might be setting myself up to get blown to kingdom come...
 
That, or the damn thing is slow ass. I hated the BR, but i am glad they brought back the zoom pistol. But needler rifle ftw.
 
I can't kill anyone but nubs with that thing. Like "im gonna run backwards and throw a grenade" kind of nub. :wacky:

I know it's because my sensitivity settings are maxed, but I can't find a comfortable medium. =/
 
Wat? The pistol, DMR or Needle rifle? How do you play? prescision aiming or spray and pray?

i find that they tinkered with the sensitivity settings. I put it on the same as 3 setting and it felt different. Definitely. It felt less smooth and a bit jerky the aiming.

Tho i do love the yoink medal.

Needle Rifle.

See, I always try to use it like a Needler instead of a Carbine. so i just suck at it :monster:

but my sensitivity settings do let me do heroic shit like this :awesome:

also adri, i uploaded my fail banshee driving and covenant murdering here

edit: hm... i think if you want to watch it you will have to dl it to your xbox, it's not letting me dl it to my comp. :(
