Some interesting ones, though...

Oh my, mega easy points by beating it on Legendary.

Halo on legendary's pretty hard, right?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Wow, most are actually pretty lame. I excepted a few more creative achievements from Bungie and less "beat this level in single player."


Quoted post: Halo on legendary's pretty hard, right?


Pretty hard, but not that bad. I found CoD2 Veteran to be more difficult, personally.



Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

I never completed Halo on any difficulty, but I got through the second game on Heroic. A lot of rinse and repeats, but overall not too bad.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

It was all just learning enemy placement, like old-school scrolling shooters. I doubt H3 will be much different.

Legendary was extremely easy. You can plasma pistol + battle rifle your way through the entire campaign in a little over five hours if you're fast.

Are you kidding? It takes like 3 1/2 hours- 4 hours.

Tape yourself doing it that fast and I will be surprised.

Do one better, don't play campaign at all, 'cause playing campaign in Halo makes you a ****ing toolbox.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

I liked Halo 2's campaign more than its multiplayer.

Not even kidding.

Get the **** outta here. I AM THE ARBITER




Posted by cool gamer dad

I'm gonna beat the campaign super quick for the achievements, then play me some multiplayer. Sadly, it looks like I can get pretty much all of those within a few days.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Multiplayer achievements are almost always purest grinding. ***damit. I got the Marksman achievement in Vegas today though. :D




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Pff, I got that achievement when the sniper rifle was impossible to use.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

idk, I've stuck with the G3KA4 since I started playing online. Since I'm a Specialist now, though, might as well start using the 552.

Also got the Dam single player achievement today.




Posted by cool gamer dad

You should only use the FAMAS and the MTAR21. Use the FAMAS if you like body shots, or the MTAR21 if you aim for the head.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Specialist? MP7 get. I tend to want to use the MTAR and SCAR, but I always go back to the MP7. It's great long, mid, and close range.




Posted by cool gamer dad

Don't listen to Vamp. The MP7 is garbage compared to the FAMAS.

edit: but to be fair, the G3KA4 is garbage compared to the MP7. The G3KA4's stats are highly deceiving; the most important stat is rate of fire. Which is why the FAMAS, MTAR, and MP7 (despite the MP7 being relatively slow compared to the other SMGs) pretty much dominate the game.

I know a lot of it is irrelevant now, because of one patch that drastically changed the game, and another that was moderately significant. But the rate of fire hasn't changed.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

All right, go with the MTAR. Closest thing to the controllability of the SMGs, but highly accurate and fairly easy to use close-range.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

I'M ****ING CONFUSED

I used the MTAR in campaign quite a lot, so I might settle for that. But the MP7 sounds good.




Posted by cool gamer dad

If you use the MP7, aim only for the head unless you're close to what you're shooting at. That gun does ****ing nothing to the body medium to long range.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Was going to try the MP7 in Terrorist Hunt today, but I ended up going total pistol to get the achievement. I actually ****ed off one of the kids I was teaming up with because I insisted on using my pistol. :(




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Are you using shield and pistol? If so, all kills count as a shield kill, so no achievement. Just a little protip.

And terrorist hunt is bad for guns. Everyone would be using a deagle or bull otherwise.




Posted by cool gamer dad

Any gun can kill a terrorist in one shot really, so it's sorta' a bad place to test them.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

It's cool, I got Pistoleer. 38 pistol kills on the Strip!

Started sampling other guns. The MP7 is awesome, the Famas is so-so (clip runs out in seconds). I seem to be getting the best results with the Commando, which is confusing. :(

Double Kill with the Spartan Laser seems to be the only hard one.




Posted by cool gamer dad

You could probably shoot a mongoose with two people in it for the double kill.

Not really. I got it a couple days after playing it, and I know Stinger got it at least twice in his short time with the game. Just shoot when two people are close to each other, auto-aim takes care of the rest.
