Kornman, Silicon and Arteen.
I know what team mates I'll be doing co op games with haha. <3
we did pretty well despite the fact in actuality it was only 3 of us and a guest
half the time we ran out of lives only to pull through
Deja Vu tonight, anyone?
Also, sorry I couldn't join your Deja Vu game, Korn. I already promised to play with someone else. It seems like you were still able to get the achievement, so good!
Also, to sevlag, et.al., and anyone else going for Endure:
If you get a fourth person to join you, Lost Platoon works well. We ended up getting the achievement in just under 2 hours, with 20+ lives to spare. For the most part, we had two people circle in the hog, and two people on the main platform, with one of those two on laser duty. If we could, we would try to kill the chopper drivers without destroying the choppers themselves, as choppers are quite useful in the later sets.
I'm game for Deja Vu tonight, hopefully rosco and siliconmaster are too
Yeah, I figured you had other agendas to tend to when you never came :P. We ended up playing with DEE and a friend of his. Was fun but we kept on dying from stupid moves. I couldn't stay up anymore to try and finish it, it was already 5am in the morning :\
Definitely. I'll keep my evening open. Arteen, Rosco and I messed around in campaign until late, waiting for you to get back, but then gave up and passed out. :P That Firefight game was awesome though. By the end I had at least 3 or 4 people in my room watching.
i WILL get this achievement tonight regardless of whoes knee caps i have to eat
Just pick a time and I'll make sure to be there. Deja Vu sounds like fun!
Yo silicon where you at, we wanna play!
I need 3 other people to get endure. Anytime today would be fine.

Recon unlocked! It was great playing with you guys! We should play together more often.

Good luck!
Well, I just tried Endure with my friend, his brother, and his brother and we failed both times. Barely got past the second round because they kept dying.
I need 1 person pwease :gonk:
xbl: TearShade
So far we have:
my friend
me
Onotix
My connection should be reset by 830est so I can play with you guys
Ill be ready to play in about 30 minutes, after teen titans is over :B
add LL PlasX LL if you need a guy for firefight. Nobody seems to wanna play anymore QQ
After over 1.6 million points, spilling corn, yelling at the screen, and 2 and a half hours, we got Endure.

Just got Endure and unlocked Recon, hell of a game, but it was fun.

bob keeps lagging out and no offense bob but it IS you, we ran a match with a friend of mine replacing you and we had no problems
annihil we need jpp
It's not me.
When it lags up and quits it says all of you quit, when it says I quit. It isn't me. I checked my network and everything. It wouldn't make any sense for it to be JUST me. I'm sure I'm not helping. But it's not JUST me. Because I was fine when it was three of us. But as soon as a fourth person got put in, it started lagging me too.
But whatever. Fuck this achievment, and fuck my internet. I don't care.
Edit: ... Sorry, just, what a waste of time. Bugs me that I can't fix it because I have no idea what the hell is wrong. Nothing was plugged in to the router, it was a direct line, who knows... But sorry for ruining everyone's game. Guess I'll go without the achievement, but thanks for trying to include me.
If only co-op games had some type of better network code, but I'm sure Bungie optimized it the best they could anyway.
It's NOT the net code which causes this "problem". Networked campaign games run in a lock step synchronization model so that all clients stay in sync. That's why if ANY client is unable to keep up at full game speed, all the other clients will slow down. It's not lag, it's the actual game slowing down to compensate for players who can't keep it up...
wanna try again :\
this achievement will drive me to the grave
I'll join you guys in a minute, I need some breakfast first.
Wtf, they're two totally different games, does it really boggle your mind that much?
With lock-step and deterministic game play, the engine doesn't have to worry about syncing tons of low level data. All it has to do, if anything, is just keep sending out updates on the player's actions and various object states (units, devices). No actual AI specific packets. Pretty good chance Call of Doodoo doesn't go this route in their networked campaign mode.
Halo CE did this same method (Xbox only) for it's multiplayer. It's why you couldn't jump into existing games because the engine had no support for updating a new client to the current state. It just started all clients at the start of the game with the same input (ie, random seed) and just updated each other with player actions (among a few other things) as the game progressed.
Deterministic game play can lift a lot of processing from the networking layer, but if one client starts to fail to update-in-sync with everyone else (ie, dropped packets) then EVERYONE has to slow down in order to keep a game pace which matches an update rate that slacking client can handle. That specific client may recover from this (brief) update issue, but the Halo 3 engine may not decide to play the game at normal speed until it's seen the connection level out (ie, no more dropped packets). If that or any other client repeats the above issue constantly, you'll see it through the entire game obviously since it won't level out.
This is why DSL rapes cable connections in this instances.
Korn, Sev, and I are trying to get Endure right now. We need a 4th person.
Message me on XBL if you can be that last person in the mantrain, uh, I mean Endure attempt.
Kornman, i was just curious why halo didn't allow you join random games yet a few other games did but in zombies you can't just join a random game which i was curious if it used a simular system to halo 3 because both of them ended the game if someone lagged out or left.

much love good night
I guess I'll just sit here with no Endure ):
well start hanging back in firefight and ill help with it
Good job...
Anyone want to do Endure or Deja Vu right now?
me
will help with deja vu ina bit (hopefully)
I gots Deja Vu, now just Endure.
I still have to do endure too. To bad my xbox keeps disconnecting after 60 to 90 minutes for no reason :(
I am down for ff someone PLAY!
i'll help advancebo out friday or whatnot
^We need Endure players
im willing to play firefight the rest of the night please let someone be on!
My computer may be dying...so I may be playing firefight again this weekend :x
Only with people with some brains though :|
So no Attys
Alright, but I'm only playing Last Exit/Chasm Ten/Outside Alpha Site first. Those should be the only ones I have left for 200k
Also, I probably won't rage unless bullshit happens. Like stupid people. They happen alot. Which is why I don't play H3 as much. One of my XBL buddies has me on rage controlling techniques...and reminds me of the fact that I'm on my last working controller so I won't try to break it. On my 5th 360 controller now. Actually, it's 6th but the last one CAME broke. The right stick won't detect left/right movements :ugh:.
However, I could just quickly pick up a non-working controller and smash it some more...yes, excellent :mr_burns:
Oh, and I'm getting a 40-some inch HDMI flat screen today for 400$ too :iamafag:. Will be a step up from my 22in flatscreen via it's analog input >.>
I will probably be free Friday night, and most of Saturday and Sunday. I'd like to get the rest of the 200k achievements.
Took about 2 hours and 30 minutes but we got it.
http://www.bungie.net/Stats/ODSTg.as...ottheredbutton
I'll help anybody out if they need it.
I'm usually on at 2-10 PM thurdays to friday
Ill be on today, if anyone can help me with Endure.
Advancebo1 is my gamertag. Though I wont be on for about 2-3 hours.
Il help if you do it on lost platoon, much more easy going than alpha site.
Splaser is your friend.
Ill be on in about 1-3 hours.
Just had a terribly disappointing attempt to get Endure with Admiral Bacon, Skyline, and ShadowSpartan. We got the the last wave of set 4 round 3 wave 5, then died. D:
I can say though that Skyline had one of the most spectacular Hero awards when he took out a Chieftan round by himself on a chopper, with most of the skulls on. We were all in flycam on the edge of our seats, watching him take the brutes out one by one. He was, of course, the last one to die at the very end, but he didn't have a chopper.
I still need the achievement. If anyone wants to help, send me an invite >.>
Anyone up to get endure?
Worst Firefight Ever
On Legendary Solo Alpha Site, I died Set 1, Round 1, Wave 2. The second wave spawned 2 Hunters and a bunch of camo Brutes. I couldn't even get to the RL spawn.
ha :golfclap:
After two painstaking hours we managed to get the elephant to the part where the scarab damages it. He decided to start shooting the elephant for god knows why, which then caused it to go into a loop of Dare and Vergil dieing, reverting to checkpoint which was just before, and them dieing again, and so on. Is it just coincidence that the second (and last) time I tried to get Deja Vu without him, we made it? And the exact same thing goes for Endure. First time I tried it with Advancebo, we lost. Second time I tried it without him, and we got the achievement.
Haw thats funny.
http://www.bungie.net/Stats/ODSTg.as...yer=Advancebo1
Finally got Endure.
Now to figure out how to get Recon.
I've seen youtube videos regarding it, but haven't seen it happen myself.
Saw a video where the same thing happened, and they were able to fly around the ship interior in free camera.
Dont you have to have just played ODST for the first time, since none of the Firefight maps are unlocked?
There are default firefight maps that you can play at the very beginning.
It's kinda frustrating, I need Endure bad. I am on firefight right now, but I can only play with American people(no people from Europe or UK, sorry but I lag when I play with you guys). So who want's to hit me up with a game?
Anyone want to go for some 200k on Windward, Alpha Site, or Last Exit sometime? If you can get some more people to join Spartan094, I would be up for Endure on any of those.
Some Legendary Firefighting could be fun, too.
Yis, legendary ff'in could be fun
need good ppl though
Nah, to late, I got RECON
http://www.bungie.net/stats/halo3/de...er=darkbdawg22
But I'll gladly help for achievements or some fun firefights
I think when I got recon, we had 32 lives when we started out the 4th set, ended up with 24 on Set 5
It's sad but I still need vidmasters from ODST
:saddowns:
Hey Korn, Arteen and Silicon I wanan do some firefight before the half term week. You guys down for a friday night?
I can do Friday, I think.
