Those are my favorite 2 with the coming update. I wish they would fix the invasion glitch with the core though >.> Enemy driving tank over it and blowing it up = can't reset or pick it up.


Don't forget the change of the top of zealot. It will be out of bounds with the update.

I haven't play Zealot online once yet. Prolly cause I always play Big Team or Invasion usually.

anyway, i realized i'm not going to play the campaign more than once not including the daily/weekly challenges so it wouldn't hurt to farm some commendations from it. doing the oh so popular oni:sword base target locater farming, got a full level in 30 minutes.


I'm down to work on some of those some time. Some of the random achievements and Data Pads.

(: I play for fun moments like this, haha.

I think they should put a cooldown on melee. It's annoying when someone with no skill can just beat you down using pure timing, lucky timing.

Yea just look at BlackDragon's post...make sure you hide behind the first pillar you pass once you've picked up the artillery..and wait for the checkpoint marker to appear...then just rinse and repeat the firing process..

EDIT: If you grab the artillery gun first and then go load the checkpoint it will save you alot of time...all you have to do is step to the side, fire, load save, repeat..whereas on the video he has to keep running over and picking it up or w/e.

Well what you wanna do is turn on Thunderstorm skull and team scoring on...and then go through and do that checkpoint and w/e..and yes it should be building towards like 6 differents commendations.. Splash Damage, Walking Tank, Cannon Fodder, Spec-Ops, Leadership Element, Super Soldier, and if you throw grenades every now and then...Nice arm too... so 6-7 commendations are being built up from this.

You don't need team scoring, I did FFA. Still got it and rank up super fast. Also, the pillar is how you "can" get the checkpoint, but the checkpoint happens when your shield is full and no enemies are attacking you. I've gotten the checkpoint right before I picked it up, which after 100 Killionaires is a lot of wasted time. Which is why Heroic is best(I was on heroic though), Enemies constantly shooting at you keeping you from the checkpoint until you want it.
You get a couple commendations from it, I think my Walking tank is still only gold. It got so boring after prolly 300 killionaires,

I turned teamscoring on because I was following a video a guy made.

1527 is my first arena score. Could've been higher probs if I didn't have to go against someone who could only make kills with the rocket launcher.

Oh godddd.

Like 15,000 people had their ranks and credits reset, as well as a week long ban from earning credits for Challenge boosting or something. Bungie forums were fucking epic.

lol I know what your talking about. I laugh at people that were Lt. Colonel from doing this and got reset. They disconnect their Ethernet/Modem right after they get the challenge completed. Bungie isn't retarded though.

Farming credits with the commendations and revert to checkpoint stuff is one thing, disconnecting your router to cheat the game is just pathetic. >.< They deserve it.

I stopped that just in case lol. I'm almost WO 3 and would rather not get reset seeing as that took me 2 weeks cause I don't play a ton. Like the 3rd day I was on I was already seeing Lt Colonels.
Someone made a good point though, what if they completed the challenge and their xbox got turned off? I am concerned about that, because my inter cooler is very touchy and shut my xbox off while playing reach a couple days ago. Has done it more than once.

I'm pretty sure they won't ban if it happen once or twice >.< And for the credit farming they said they won't ban you. As long as you don't cheat the game (like the challenge reset stuff)

They can see how many times you Synced the challenge.

Was fcking epic.

Someone would be like, "wtfux Bungie I didn't even cheat why am I banned I demand an unban or I'm returning the game!!1!"

Then mod comes in like, "These 34 Syncs on 9/24/10 between 1am - 3am on your account say differently."

and completely roflstomped him.
