Lone Wolf:..stuff
« on: November 08, 2010, 22:38:21 »
Played with Pulse and Twisted for a little bit today. Pulse wanted to see if there was any changes in enemies after the sword wielding elites roll up.

I didn't notice anything change, but I did notice that once the grunts were cleared from the area...no more grunts showed up. Also when all of the white armored elites were killed......they stop showing up, of coarse they are replaced with the yellow/orange elites who carry swords and those cannon things.

Also take a look at the weapon info (Select button) the info is missing and when you have a sword it doesn't show up...weird.

(this was all done on easy)

Wraiths: These mothers may have something to em. The wraiths are about 4-5secs past the boundary, it takes 1 second to get in it (if its Unoccupied) and probably 3-4 seconds to boost back..Based on that its possible to bring a wraith back to the battle.

This would require team work hard core. 4 people, 2 protect and 2 snipers. 

Sniper 1 takes out the gunner.
Sniper 2 brakes driver hatch/ kills driver..
Support 1 keeps the enemy busy.
Support 2 covers team until driver is dead and makes a brake for the wraith.

Don't forget that if you're inside the wraith and you die because of the soft-kill barrier, the wraith blows up.

EDIT:
Hmm... The Grunts and those Elites did stop spawning... Maybe the Generals ALSO stop appearing eventually? If four of us could actually stay alive and do what I did (ie, kick some Elite ass), maybe we can actually... Survive?

Sure, there would probably be some Zealots later on and later ALL Zealots (cause the only time we've seen them in LW is in the ending cinematic), but AFTER the Zealots... Hmm...

btw, nice karma. lelelelelelelelel

I also wonder if destroying all the wraiths will do something...I may be off but I have seen 4..

Kill all the wraiths get a harder vehicle to kill... INCOMING SCARAB!!!!! (that would be legendary)

I would help but...
1)I'm tired.
2)I've almost got everything related to the Halo Story and am trying to get Halo Book.

I'll see if I can help tomorrow.

A frog once said if you read this you'll die but how would he know you'll die. He's a frog and frogs can't talk. Who would listen to this frog. So to read this he just wasted your life for a few minutes meaning you are closer to dying anyway so the frog was telling the truth but frogs can't talk?

It's fairly easy to kill everything on easy, if you ask me. While you assassinate, they won't shoot at you. Pick up a sword, hit em once then switch weapons and melee. The swords energy never dies out.

I like this idea....maybe the profession would be Grunts->White Elites->Gold Elites->Zealots->???Hunters???

Another thought; have Jackles/Skermishers ever spawned in LW?
ODST is all about switches, isn't it?

4 player lagfest... go on forever? I'm down for that.

I have not seen any Jackals or Skirmishers, but Skirmishers are a pain in the ass so they might be the final enemy ;).

I'm not the best player out there, and quite frankly I can't stand blind skull, so I'm wary about joining scat. I can probably help on Legendary, as long as I can SEE WHERE THE FRICK I'M AIMING, and I don't have a lot of lag to deal with.

Heh, that was just Mythic to test if a different helmet showed up, which it did at least once.

I'm sure it would be on easy? No skulls?

Didn't you see that random helmet with a random add-on stuck in the ground? It's happen to me countless times...

I saw it on one of my Lone Wolf excursions with scat, too.  You just have to remember which helmet and what attachment you have, and if you pay attention you might notice a difference. 

We should also see if the colors are the same.  Remember, the paint fades, but it's not completely gone.  Trust me, even when the paint was faded, I could still see some bright blue and green on my helmet, so the color does change, however slightly. 

Has the helmet shown up differently on occasions other than Mythic?  Have we tried this with different difficulties, and different skull combinations?

So, is it the same base helmet with a different attachment/colors? Because I have never seen this....

If I remember correctly, it was a completely different helmet.
