I wouldnt mind the ability to create clips of campaign too if thats not too much to ask BungiePeeeeeeeeaaaase?
Guess you just have to buy a new cap card. I remember on the latest Bungie podcast they mentioned that were going to a section on cap cards and put it on Bnet.

I hope Bungie can patch in a system that allows you to at least skip to certain parts of campaign. The loading zone thing doesn't make perfect sense to me, as you can hit another loading zone, die, and be teleported back to the last.
Even if it's more complex than that, I don't understand why you can't browse around a loading zone and rewind through that at will.
But when you have an hour long film and want to skip to a part at the end, it's painfully slow.
Likewise, having to restart a film from the beginning to view something from a different angle ain't so good.

The real question is: Does it stay there when you re-open the saved Forge map? Anyone care to test this?Tieno said:

I doubt it does, just based on how the maps are saved. But yeah, someone should test. Could be wrong!

Anybody know if the fuel rod gun is available in multiplayer or Forge?

Why the hell can't we spawn with fire grenades?

Can't wait for a matchmaking update where there is either more than one ranked free for all playlist or there's more than 5 players in Lone Wolves.
Those overkill and steppin' razor achievements take a lot more luck than they do skill!

I haven't got them (haven't tried, all I wanted to get was Killing Frenzy), but I would think you'd be likely to get them in the occasional objective games. Wait for everyone to charge for the oddball or hill and jump in as their shields go down a bit.The Lamonster said:
I have no idea how you would get Mongoose Mowdown apart from by accident, but maybe that's the point? Lots of the fun in Halo multiplayer is from the moments of craziness.
alisdair said:
Mongoose Mowdown I lucked out on an Isolation match and the guy wasn't paying attention.
Yeah objective definitely is the time to try and get these. Thats how I got my Spartan Laster Two For One achievement last night. Oddball on Construct and got lucky. I'm down to Steppin' Razor, have to hope for lots of Pit and Construct games.

I got it by asking dudes in the pregame lobby if they want to help each other get the Mongoose achievement. But don't tell anybody I said that.

I got one in a team territories game. i was all excited...then I realized that it had to be Lone Wolves
Truant said:
yeah, out of the whole game this is really my only complaint (which isn't that bad)
if the left trigger acted as the right but in reverse it would be golden.
(thrust should just be wired into the left anolog stick the further you push it the faster you go , instead of needing the left trigger for it)
I'm having a bit of trouble getting the meta game scores. I saw it posted last night what the easiest way to do this was, but I can't seem to find it now. Something about leaving the game on normal and turning on 5 or 6 specific skulls. Can anyone recount this wisdom to me so I can get those achievements out of the way?

1) Heroic if you're by yourself, Legendary if you're with a partner (no more than three should play).Sallokin said:
2) Turn on Tough Luck, Famine, Fog and Mythic.
3) Add Catch on levels against the Flood or vehicle-heavy levels.
4) Grab a vehicle and use the onboard friendly-AI to wrack up kills. Offer them any rocket launchers or fuel-rod guns you have before they run completely out of ammo (they won't run out of ammo while they're in the hands of an AI) and take your time moving through the vehicle/turret heavy areas. This works very well on
Tsavo, Storm, Ark and Covenant
Played co-op legendary over Live last night (controls were pretty floaty but I could deal with it). We got half way through Tsavo Highway when someone lost their connection, which kicked us all from the game. So I started it back up from the second checkpoint (which was before the part that we lost the connection at), and we finished up. But it doesn't show as being completed on legendary.
So, this is how it's got to be? You need to play the entire level all the way though at once and just pray no one loses their connection?
Got a nice screenshot out of Crow's Nest though, sucks to be this guy:

So after beating Halo 3 last night I played my first multiplayer for a few hours with some of the GAF Madden crew. Already I think I may be playing the game too much as Halo 3 has now overtaken my dreams. Only got about 5 hours of sleep before having to come into work this morning and what little sleep I did get was dominated by a dream....a dream that involved me and 3 friends playing 4-player co-operative.......Guitar Halo 3. :lol
In the dream, we were arguing over who got which controller. I ended up settling for the Battle Rifle Bass and my one friend got the Guitar Shotgun. Neither of us wanted the Artillery Drum. So we went through Tsavo Highway to the tune of Lenny Kravitz's "Rock and Roll is Dead." The instruments were like Guitar Hero but with scopes on the fretboard and a trigger on the body/neck. The gameplay was kinda like Moonwalker where we played bitchin' guitar solos and made the Brutes drop their weapons and then shot them up while the drummer annihilated them with cannon fire.....
...so, yea. Maybe I shouldn't play so much Halo in one sitting and eat right before going to sleep.

I'm having a problem with spawning points in Forge, hoping somebody can help me.
Starting with a blank canvas, say I add 6-8 spawn points. When I play the map in customs, I get spawned somewhere where I didn't lay a spawn point. And in some Forge maps, spawning in the wrong place can break the intended game. This has happened on Last Resort and Sandtrap. What am I doing wrong?

The Lamonster said:
Are you making sure all the spawn points are deleted before you start adding yours? (Even on the canvases) I had a problem with my Helm's Deep map where defenders were spawning at the offensive side and I couldn't figure out what was going on either, but then I checked around and it turned out the "canvas" wasn't clean. (There were some in the water)

traveler said:
The canvas is definitely clean, I even went back into Forge to check out the place where I spawned and there was no spawn point there. In Tyson's article he talked about how the game requires certain things to be there, so this is one of those cases where my map isn't fitting some requirement or something so the game forces spawn points...
