Re: Hello Nightfall!

In Response To: Hello Nightfall! (RC Master) : What I posted to 343's feedback thread: Regarding this weeks weekly : challenge: Co-op Dash - 30343 cR : Clear any Campaign mission on Heroic, in co-op, in 9 minutes or less. : While I appreciate the higher payouts than before, you have, like Bungie : before you, created a timed campaign challenge which is either : exceptionally hard, or ridiculously easy. : The only 4 levels it is even possible on, in theory, are: Winter Contingency : ONI: Sword Base : Nightfall : Tip of the Spear : On Winter Contingency you'd have to steal the Falcon and break the level, and : even then you'd have to do it without deaths and would be VERY close to : the solo world Record. : On ONI you'd have to be very organised, very aggressive and use several : skips, including using the TL in the first ONI courtyard. The solo record : is on 6:35 and it was VERY good. : Nightfall, forklift skip makes it incredibly easy with a bit of luck. Without : that, it's incredibly difficult and would require running through most of : the level anyway, and then very good coordinated fighting from Powerhouse : onwards. I just tried it solo and it took me 11 minutes. : Tip of the Spear is possible. But again you really have to know what you're : doing and be very coordinated on the fighting. : In my opinion, you'd be better off doing more single level challenges so you : can control the difficulty more, make it more interesting and, more : importantly, give levels other than Nightfall a play! : E.g. If you'd made it 'Complete Pillar of Autumn on Heroic, in co-op, in 22 : minutes or less' that'd be far more interesting. It's totally possible : (the record on Solo Legendary is just : [url=http://highspeedhalo.net/?p=4535]15:56[/url]), and would mean that : people would either have to find a lot of shortcuts themselves or, ya : know, seek help from a guide or speed run and would still learn a lot. : So, in summary, I don't know why you even bother having the 'any level' : ability when it's essentially going to just be "everybody break : Nightfall" week. : I guess one problem has been fixed. Still many to go... "If 343 wants to make it 'Everybody Break Nightfall' week, that's fine by me!!!"
