Yet another Halo: Reach thread...

[GwydeanRunix]

So, Reach has been out for almost a week now, and I've just started towards the "A Monument to All Your Sins" achievement in the game. I must say, it is the hardest thing I've ever done in a game. As you may know, the achievement requires you to beat the game on Legendary, by yourself. The game is annoying me so much with the ridiculous amounts of damage the enemies do now. A Grunt can kill me in 2-3 hits. It's ridiculously hard, at least for me, but I'm not the greatest player. I had nowhere near this much trouble trying to beat MW2 on Veteran. So anyone else have this problem, trying to beat a game on the hardest difficulty? Not just Halo: Reach though, any game.

I can't win on a game because I am a *unt....

The difficulty on this game is *unt level....

Can I not be a *unt, and still score the mega awesome killer gamer points?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?1

Nope, the OP is still just a lazy *unt that can't play the game on a different difficulty than *unt level.

It's rather simple to get more from this game than 5 hours of *unt play.

But then again, I really don't wan't to even address the *unt players that want to say this game sucks.

*uck all you *unt players that need to feel one way or another about this game.

*uck you all, you low life *hit players.


IS THIS REALLY WHAT WE ALL THINK!?!?!?!

Dude, I'm not sure I understand your post, are you calling me a *unt repeatedly just because I"m trying to beat the game on the hardest difficulty, or do you think I'm bashing the game? 'Cause I'm definitely not bashing the game, I absolutely love it, I was simply saying how hard the game is on Legendary.

Well at least your not a walking tank anymore.The game is actually challenging.
my suggestion is the hologram it gives the enemies something to focus on while you can run away then pick them off from a distance with a DMR.

The game is extremely hard, I'm on the 9th actual mission and don't think I'm ever going to get past the part I am on right now.

There are 3 elites and a jackal behind me. One is a red elite with a concussion rifle, the other 2 are dual wielding plasma rifles. In front of me are 2 hunters and and 6 of the jackals that have 2 shields. There is literally no cover and no where to go. I die almost as soon as the check point hits. Holy Shit! I just did it on my first try today. Emile got knocked off a cliff halfway through though...

Oh and I forgot that all I have is an assault rifle with around 200 rounds and no grenades.

I started on legendary so I don't know the ending yet.

The one game that I tried and failed to beat on the hardest difficulty is Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Stupid "No Fighting In the War Room."

Same thing happened to me, still haven't beaten the game. MW2 on Veteran was sort of a joke though.

All I know is the last part of the game is hard. I won't tell what you have to do, I'll just say there is 3 zealot class elites and one Field Commander (I forget its name, but its like the highest ranking elite there is). Two of the zealots have duel wield plasma rifles, one just has one, and the Field Commander has a fuel rod gun / plasma sword. It took FOREVER to get pass them.

Well, I just got the achievement yesterday, and I have to say, always have a headshot weapon. And, if you face Elites, always get a plasma weapon to be with your headshot weapon. The elites are like monkeys in how they dodge, and bullets won't cut it against their shields. And for Brutes, sniper and needle rifle all the way.

the enemy is a cheating *****

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheComputerIsACheatingBastard

A whole page for it, even!

hah seen that before, fuckign awesome page for sure.

but really it DOES CHEAT. on the sniper level i was about to snipe the turret guy from a good distance away, and i hadnt fired yet so i was still "stealthed" technically, and right when my aimer went over his head in my scope the turret moved so it put the metal bar between my scope and his head, and so i was like "fine fucker, ill just relocate" so i do that a good 45 feet in the other direction, line up again, FUCKER DOES IT AGAIN!

now i know that the computer should take some advantages..but i mean come onn you stupid little grunt, let me rape your head! and that wasn't even on legendary!

 

[dogenzakaminion]

woah, I'm almost done with cmpaign on heroic and I think THAT'S hard! I don't think I'll ever do legendary, unless im with a friend who's really good. Too bad difficulty scales up with more people.

 

[Sassafrass]

Seeing as I'm getting Reach tomorrow, I was a bit stupid to click into this thread really. But hey, no spoilers so that's great. And plus, I've got a shit-ton of tips out of this so yay!

Anyway, to answer the other question you've posed OP.

So anyone else have this problem, trying to beat a game on the hardest difficulty? Not just Halo: Reach though, any game.

That thing, yes, a few times, actually. Mainly in the older Halo's and Halo 2 in particular. Damn that one guy dies = START AGAIN! shit in co-op. Made Legendary a total ass to play with a friend who doesn't know what the warning "Rambo behaviour will get you killed." means.

I'm having that problem as well. My problem is with Hunters... >_>

Elites and Brutes aren't so bad, it's those darn hunters that keep kicking my ass. I should one with a fuel rod cannon 4 times and he didn't die. I was unpleasantly surprised. They NEVER turn their backs to me either.

*grumble*

Hunters are terrible for me. I got stuck on one part in ONI: Sword Base with two hunters and I was there for about half an hour trying to get past them. And then when I finally killed them, I headed to the elevator to go down to the real part of Sword Base, when an Elite greeted me with an energy sword to the face.

 

[Buizel91]

Im stuck on Heroic...on the Second Mission, have been for about 2 days...

and it's only at the beginning ¬_¬!

then again i haven't been on it since yesterday, well... campaign anyway.

I'm dreading this fucker on Legendary...

Oooh btw, this should be obvious but hey what the hell, use the Jetpack to get to higher ground where you would never be able to get to on Foot, Helped me a few times on normal =D
