Friday night should be good for me, but I'm filming with my production group that day, and I'm not sure when we'll be done. I'll get online as soon as we are though. I can't imagine it being all that late.

Scratch that, something came up, and I won't be able to play until late, if at all. I can probably do Saturday or Sunday, but I don't know when I'll be free.Quote:

Nobody's posted in this thread for quite a while, but whatever, I recently got ODST and need some people to play with (and get the 200k point achievements, alone takes too long...).
I'm in Germany, GMT + 1, so if anyone wants to add me, please do, my gamertag is "Narida L".
Too bad you didn't have it a few months ago when Kornman was struggling trying to find someone to play with. He's coming back to the US.Quote:

Would love to, but I'm in the land of shitty connections. Sorry.
Need a fourth, gogogogogogo
If you're also in the states, ++++++++++rep
If I don't get sidetracked and forget, you can invite me. I'll mostly concentrate on not dying; I know there are no defibrillators in ODST.

I still need the Endure achievement:
In Firefight, on any mission, pass the 4th Set on 4-player Heroic LIVE co-op.
Shit sucks, hate not having enough people :C
Im willing to help this weekQuote:

On Lost Platoon, it takes about...oh 90mins to 2hrs IIRC? With a good team.
I thought Alpha Site was the fastest. All the enemies funnel into a central location and it's really easy to rack up kill multipliers. No vehicles, though.
I need to brush up on firefighting. I went in completely cold (haven't touched it in 6 months) and wasn't sure where the weapons would spawn and didn't remember much about the scoring system. Spent the whole match just driving the Warthog around, trying not to flip over.
I could have seen myself really liking this mode if not for some of the more annoying skulls (black eye, catch), not being able to start at a later set, the difficulty in getting people together to play, and the fact that there's no end. They could also use some objectives and counter-objectives to mix things up.
It was about that when we did it. I recommend Lost Platoon for the vehicles. You don't want to be on foot when the set 4 chieftains come around. Just grab the warthog and hijack some choppers, and sit at a nice distance to pick them off.Quote:

You can get upto 4 chieftains.Quote:

Best case with the hammer chieftains is ram the fuckers with a chopper.
Oh and if you find out who is host you can board the wraiths.
I hear Alpha Site's a great map to get it on.
As for the chieftans, I hear it works to use a plasma pistol charge followed by everyone pistoling the shit out of it's head.
I'm probably busy for the most of the week. Today's my only day off, though I gotta be somewhere at 12. May be there for a few hours.
They're not chieftains unless they have a hammer. Brutes with FRGs are Brute captains.Quote:

Nah, they're called "walking ammo reserves".
I played as the heavy weapons guy, and followed the first rule of combat engagement - know your enemy. Chieftains and War Chieftains were my specialty target, and thus the Gravity Hammer and the Fuel Rod Cannon were my primary Covenant weapons.
Not what Bungie said in the Et Tu Brute video.Quote:

They also didn't mention anything about war chieftains in the video either: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Halo_3_Vi...t_Tu,_Brute%3F. Just the various headdresses of captains vs chiefs
In either case, there were 3 hammer chieftains in that encounter. I went back to the film and there were no FRG wielding brutes. Just those 3 hammer chieftains and some jetpack brutes. We were also at the start of Set 2...
Negative, brutes with FRG's are War Chieftains, a higher rank than Chieftans.
Ummmm, no shit? We settled that already. I think we can put hammer/war chieftain "debate" aside now (except War types being higher ranking, which is only assumed, not proven fact).
I want to play, my GT is Malolo.
If your one of the lot who hates me here please add me and get to know me, who knows you might like me.
Just bumping my GT in here so I can play too.
