D-38 Boss

Well. They needed to take a more gritty route for the ending. Even the earlier titles sad endings (For example Halo 3's supposed death of chief. Reach's ending) Had up lifting notes. Chief was shown to be alive in 3 (Obviously) And Noble 6 died as a hero. Chief losing Cortana was a big shock considering it seemed like everything was going to work out OK. the entire story was building to a happy ending where Cortana is saved. Then they hit you with the ending that was sad, but memorable. If you can make an ending that memorable, you've done your job well.

No. I agree completely. I want to be nice and figure out why people don't like it, But most people just insult you and say you're not a true halo fan if you like 4. In my opinion, If you don't give them a chance just because you think they made a bad game, you're not as die hard a fan as you think you are.

All my excitement! Thanks!

Why? a lot of people have made that mistake. halo.xbox.com is where you can get more appropriate help. Sorry we could't help you.

I usually do small attack squads to keep the enemies troop numbers low hile i get a decent attack force built. If you wanna just rush though, mass Gauss Hogs. never fails.

I still play reach's storyline every now and then because I like having My spartan as the main character.

Cool! I'll have to try some of these. Thanks for the tips.

(( HaloGeek, you need to calm down with that.... I'm all for conflict, but not everyone is a psychopath. And Cortez was the only character I had cleared for all to use. I'll roll with the punches for now, but bear in mind to keep that to a minimum in the future. It makes it hard to figure out future plot points.)) "Why is everyone out to get me?" Ty huffed. He turned to Ashley. "I wonder where you got that Idea. If your up for it, I'll be glad to take you. If you've got a friend who's looking for a squad you're welcome to invite them, I'm a little short on friends right now." ((Helljumper if you'd like to make the fourth squad member for you to control feel free. just let me know so i can start brainstorming a new character if i need to.))

I Wouldn't mind if they brought back Arena. Not because i liked it, but more because it would stop a lot of people complaining about the Ranking system not showing enough to compare skill. It wouldn't be an outlandish request either. I applaud you for having a reasonable complaint.

I wasn't even aware you could do that.... Thanks for the video!

2000.... I'm gonna get there some day!!! Congratz.

Welcome! Have fun!

Ty lay in his bunk, reading Psyche reports of his squad members. If he was going to be a squad leader, he'd need to be prepared. "Pvt. Jenkins... Insecurity issues... afraid of needles. Sounds like a real winner to me...." Ty opened the next folder. "Cpl. Munroe... Mild PTSD... no known phobias... Not very talkative. Eh... at least he might be fine to work with." Ty reached for the next folder. he'd be getting a new squad member to replace Cortez... or him, considering he took Cortez's spot. "PFC. Scott. Hm?" It was the Marine sniper he had faced in the war games. "Recommended for transfer to ODSTs. Accepted. Intergrating into 3rd Brigade. Requested to replace Sgt. MacMillan by Lt. Cortez. Of course he was trying to get rid of me..." Ty read the psyche report. "No known phobias, No mental issues, no living relatives, Top marks in acadamy. Friendly and personable. At least i'm guaranteed one of my squad members won't hate me." Ty put the folders in the drawer under his bunk. "Full day tomorrow. better be well rested." Despite that, sleep didn't come easily.

You'd need to get the other specializations to continue. And people have been having problems with the unlock code. However tomorrow they'll be releasing 2 more so you can rank up to 90. Not exactly a great condolence but you take what you can get eh?

Interesting concept, but i think it's more likely to be a book's storyline than a game's.

"yeah." Ty added "Cortez just has the mother of all sticks up his A--"

They limit you to earning 75,000 xp a day. I may have the number wrong but there is a set number of XP you can earn. as soon as it hits midnight you can start again.

"Yeah... I'm not exactly on good term with the squad.. and... well. I don't wanna have that responsibility..." Ty said scratching his head. "This little incident isn't going to go over well with them either..."

"Wait... I'm squad leader now? Oh crap....." Ty slumped into the nearest seat. "This is bad.... this is really bad..... damn it. damn it! this can't happen right now..." Ty was visibly shaken.

I would like to construct my own shelter, but i wouldn't be destroyed if i they didn't do that.

"Hey Cortez! how's your leg?" Ty laughed. He leaped over the sandbags and started sprinting toward the next area. A simulated grenade went off behind him, launching him forward. Ty managed to shift and roll onto his feet and keep moving. "Three minutes..." Ty thought "Pick it up Ty." He entered the final room. A simulated Hunter. "Oh crap..." Ty said. At 5 foot 6, Ty was far from imposing. next to the Hunter, he was practically a toy. The Hunter swung its shield down at him. he rolled left and tried to pick a spot to focus on. he couldn't get behind it. Ty dodged swing after swing. He wished he had brought a shotgun. he might have been able to blow off some armor. The Hunter swung horizontally, Hitting Ty in the chest. Ty flew back and slammed into the wall. He pulled himself up and charged back at the hunter. It swung down at him, missed and lodged its shield in the ground. Ty climbed up its arm and stabbed the gun barrel directly into the Hunters "face" and started pulling the trigger until the hunter fell. A robotic voice chimed in. "Course complete. Final time: 5:28. a new ODST record." Ty walked out to the control room to see Cortez being escorted out by some marines. "What happened here?

O_o still not exactly sounding fun...

Final level. It felt like every knight had a Binary rifle or incineration cannon.

"Wait, what?" Before Ty knew it he was sprinting down a long hallway, dodging simulated plasma bolts and firing his pistol. He vaulted over a low wall and started up a stair case. A Jackal target popped directly in front of him. He opted for a sharp kick to the skull and moved on. He pulled himself over a large fence and crouched behind a sandbag wall for a second to catch his breath. "a minute and 20 seconds."he huffed. "Gotta pick it up."

O_o How is that fun?
