spoiler that crap boy! don't make be betray you!

Oh and you don't have to beat it on legendary to view the spoiler described above. If you beat it on legendary
you get a few extra seconds of the ending that shows good stuff

Sue me!

Didn't think those two names would spoil the story, but nonetheless. The part with the planet/unknown object is the true piece of the ending, so I figured that's what was asked.
 
Need 2 more people for the last 3 stages on Legendary! We're starting almost now :D So message quick.

XBL: Jason Smapity (with the space)

I was expecting something cooler, with crates to break and more hazards. Still d/l it though.

Who's going to make level 1-2?
Click to expand...

I'm already working on it. Never expected so many views. Gamevideos.com , where it was originally uploaded, is saying it's at 137000 views after around 15hours.

I had it uploaded on bnet last week, but only got about 40 views. Amazing what some sounds effects can do!

For next level, Level 1-2, I'm going to make it harder by adding some very interesting things, not just platforming. I also want to stop relying rules (ie. avoiding the sand) so players can't cheat.

Iris helps explain some of the terminal stuff. I've posted the video Summary links enough in this thread but if you want them PM me. It makes certain characters and certain events make a bit more sense.

Can you make some floating crates to bust open? True Mario style, indeed.

unfortunately you cant effect the damage model for items when you creat them in forge, you would have to damage them after wards and be careful not to break them

Dunno if its been posted, but Darkid X has reached the highest rank, General:

http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Halo3/RankHistory.aspx?player=Darkid X

600 EXP, and level 50 in a ranked playlist. Crazy!

Not only is he the first to hit it (that I know of), but there's not even anyone else at the rank below him (Brigadier). So he's TWO ranks ahead of everyone else, including the most hardcore, upper-echelon Halo players.

It's worth noting IS possible that that final row of ranks doesn't follow the pattern of all the others, and the final rank is "Master Chief" or something, and not just General grade 4. Possible, but unlikely

Someone else beat him to it. It was linked in this thread last night I think. Go back a couple pages. And why in the world would you think that no one else is a Brigadier yet? There also have been several links to a few people with the Brigadier rank.

It's going to be a while I think before we see the highest possible rank, Grade 4 General, since they'll need 5000 EXP and I haven't seen anyone with more then 700 yet... Will probably be at least a couple weeks.

Hey Frankie or Luke. You probably have access to the stats; who was the first to Brigadier and/or do we know what the highest EXP earned is yet? How many people have made it to Brigadier so far?

Edit: Here is the gamertag that was posted last night: http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Halo3/RankHistory.aspx?player=Lt Wasp

Hey Scarecrow, were we still going to do the Campaign Scoring achievement on Level Seven tonight? if so could we do 10PM EST?

I'm getting a headset by then. I need to be in folks ears.

I'm there, mang. Can't wait to hear your sweet, buttery voice :lol
*done being creepy*
 
Hey Guys,

Planning on doing the last 3 levels on Legendary starting between 7-8pm CST. We have 2 for sure and need 2 more.

It should go quick no more than 2 hours. Also remember you don't have to do the legendary levels in any specific order to get credit for completing the game on legendary. So if you do the 3 tonight with us then whenever you do the rest of the it will then give you your credit :D

Message me at: Jason Smapity (with a space) on XBL.

If you message you'll have a spot. If I'll be out for about an hour and then we're going to start getting everyone together. It will be a great time :)

Sent you a message, would definitely like to join.
 
Weird thing happened to me last nite. I was playing co-op with two of my buddies and we were at the
dual scarab battle
. Anyways, as I was descending down the canyon path, I was suddenly attacked by the human NPC's(playing as an elite). Anyone else get this glitch? I have the runthrough on my 360, so I'll post it as soon as I get home.
 
This typo kinda amused me:

Why is the social playlist matchmaking so slow?



A number of enhancements are being made to playlists, including minor big fixes which will cause major improvements in matchmaking. Please mind our dust.

Big problems with social matchmaking confirmed:D
 
Scarecrow said:
So, is it technically possible for Bungie to patch in some night/sunset options for maps?
Click to expand...
Yeah, but why would they spend any time on that when they could attribute it to a new map or possibly a remake of Lockout?

Falkor, I like your theory (guesswork) about
Mendicant Bias being Guilty Spark 343, but I believe there's a terminal where Guilty Spark
tries to access information and is shut out during the game.

I'm actually going to respond in the Ascendant Justice thread as soon as I'm afforded an opportunity. I have a few theories about what happens at the end of the game and how it might relate to another game, as well as the Terminals.
 
I'm seriously considering just throwing Halo 3 the fuck out. Shotty snipers is a plauge and stupidity at such a high level it rivals the flood and drinking turpentine and pissing on a fire.

Or maybe I'm just stupid and there actually is a way to start matchmaking without shotty snipers being an option?
 
Wow, today matchmaking was crappier than ever. I got at least three times in a ranked game where I was in a team that had only 3 members against 4. Obviously I never ended up in a team with 4 members against 3.

Also, the game kept giving Shitty Snipers. But to add to that, after 7/8 players vetoed, it replaced it with Shitty Snipers in another map. Gee thanks.

Can't wait
 
Went back and did mission 7 again (for some reason, the game never gave me the achievement for it on my first playthrough). Also finally saw the
post-credits ending. I love how MC went back into cryo sleep - really brought the trilogy full circle.

So you're doing
Cortana and Halo
? I might be down for that. This Yankees game needs to end soon, though.
Click to expand...
We're starting on 8 and going through 10. So umm... I think its the one before cortana.
 
I'm gonna try and get the metascore achievements tonight, does anyone know if it needs to be set on Team, Free for all or does it not matter?
