I'm playing through Halo 3 on legendary now and really enjoying it. MP is terrible though.

Ramirez said:Contact Harvest is an amazing book so far by the way. I like it better than any of Neylunds, although I thought Onyx was really good.
urk said:I've tried like a dozen times to give away my signed paperback copy of Ghost of Onyx with no luck. People want t-shirts and gamerpics, but books are right out. Makes urk sad.
If you want it off your hands, I'll take it gladly. I have a nice collection of Halo swag at this point. It would have a good, loving home.urk said::lol

An original O'Connor 'Mister Chief' signed, would be worth a billion dollars to me, dare I say more than RECON ARMOR!Stinkles said:I signed a Nylund Onyx, "Joseph Staten" at NYC launch.
Now THAT is a rare find, surely?
Nylund book, fraudulently signed, by O'Connor?

...my mouth tried to form "holy shit" and "what the fuck" at the same time. I'm glad everyone else had left the office by now.Azathoth117 asks: Are the orange worm-type thingies in the back of the Scarab the same things as the worms in Hunters, or is it just superficial resemblance?
The resemblance is not just superficial. A future DLC map might expand upon that mystery.
Crzymnky069 asks: Will any of the new maps in the future have a vehicle specific to it? Kind of like the Elephant on Sandtrap.
There will be vehicle variations, both aesthetic and functional, specific to certain maps in DLC, but we currently dont have any plans to introduce a brand new vehicle to the Halo 3 sandbox.

Yeah, I also wish that after the majority vetoed the timer didn't continue to count down.Deputy Moonman said:Is there a reason a map cannot be vetoed before it's fully loaded? That would save on loading time.
I really don't know. I've never even noticed that before, but will look for it the next time I'm on-line. Do we even have a hint at how soon the patch might be released?Cocopjojo said:Yeah, I also wish that after the majority vetoed the timer didn't continue to count down.
Also, when you view the party details of someone else, why does it show your icon with their colors in the top left?
These are all little things that I'm sure Bungie had on a list to fix, but didn't have time. I'm looking forward to the patch, though.
Deputy Moonman said:I'm still sad that a plasma grenade can't take out a warthog.
The Lamonster said:I want to see some Gauss Hog in matchmaking!
BadAss84 said:I don't think one plasma should destroy it, but it should flip it or something.
I'm more bothered by how you can sometimes stick a ghost right next to the driver on the side, and after it blows up, have the ghost drive off like nothing happened (except for a bit of visual damage). At the very least the driver should die in that situation, and normally they do, but on some occasions they don't.
King Leopold789 asks: Whatever happened to Moon Base Alpha?
Moon Base Alpha a codename only - is definitely still being worked on. Its received some new lighting and different switches to enable and disable access to various parts of the map. Were still playing it pretty often. It is a brutal map to play on, that may appeal to fans of Elongation, but is absolutely NOT a remake.

Yeah, that worked for me. Constant pop-shots, dude. Find a place with good cover, hit 'em with a plasma pistol burst, and then start loading BR rounds into them. Take cover, reload, and do it again, grabbing more ammo when needed. Once their helmet pops off, headshot them before they rush you and force you out of cover. The good thing about Crow's Nest is that ammo isn't as scarce as on other levels, so the pop-shot strategy works good.JB1981 said:jesus, this game is crazy hard on legendary
any pointers, i consider myself good at halo but i am getting my ass handed to me on crow's nest.
is the plasma pistol key here? do i always need this thing to drop shields? seems like pisto + battle rifle combo is the only way to go.
i just feel like i'm always retreating to cover and it's kind of not that much fun. maybe i just suck?Cocopjojo said:Yeah, that worked for me. Constant pop-shots, dude.

Be sure to pick an area of cover that you can easily escape from, and don't be afraid to retreat and find new cover if you need to.

For me it really heightened the tension, pushed me and made me aware of the environment and how to use it, planning your next move. It's kind of like a puzzle. Crow's Nest is really difficult but some of the battles against the brute packs are amazing. It shows that Halo is also really good at fighting in smaller, closed spaces.JB1981 said:i just feel like i'm always retreating to cover and it's kind of not that much fun. maybe i just suck?
Those changes have been in there a few weeks, so we've all gotten used to them.StranGER said:so has noone else noticed the changes i mentioned above?
where are those brute shotguns?
Cocopjojo said:Those changes have been in there a few weeks, so we've all gotten used to them.
Yeah, a lot of people think the Maulers are too cheap and that there are too many on the map, so Bungie lowered the number of them on some maps and removed them entirely from others.
And the majority of folks wanted BR starts, so Bungie added that gametype in, as well. But that's not the only thing you get in Lone Wolves. You must have just been unlucky last night.
Lastly, yeah, the fire grenade isn't used in Matchmaking. Probably because a lot of people don't like the idea of having three different grenade types at once, since you'd have to cycle past one set to get to a third, and that takes a lot more time than just tapping the white button and then throwing. That's also why you don't ever see plasmas and spike grenades on the same map.
