Don't play legendary first unless

  1. You’re trying to beat it before everyone else.

  2. You like being put on all fours by dem promethean knights.

  3. You like grinding

Being the casual that I am (yes I’ve played Halo, a lot), I prefer to be entertained more than challenged the first run. However there is entertainment in being challenged with better AI. To be honest I don’t know a game with better AI than Halo.

Apparently this game is going to be the hardest so if you want to have fun and if you want everything to be paced how it was meant to play normal because it is the “new heroic.” Bungie use to say heroic was the way to play Halo I’m assuming that has changed from what I heard. I strongly recommend playing legendary second and skipping heroic all together unless there are some nice achievements for it.

Legendary Solo will be fine for me =)

I shall not be doing legendary solo first. Reason: I will need to be introduced to the challenge that the Promethean’s pose. Once I understand that, they shall fall beneath my feet and victory crouches.

> Legendary Solo will be fine for me =)

Same for me to.

> Legendary Solo will be fine for me =)

Alright good luck, you’ll need it. I’m good at Halo but Reach’s legendary kicked my butt many times and this game is harder.

Really? Reach Legendary was the easiest one.

nah, every single halo game ive played, ive always played on legendary either by myself or splitscreen co-op, so halo 4 will be no different, even if they say its the hardest halo game :wink:

Nah man, dem Reach elites, dem AI. Nah brah, dat AI. Dat concussion rifle. Nah.

Legendary Solo.

What’s the point of new fierce enemies if they don’t make your journey a walk in hell.

I always played Heroic Solo first. But now I’ll think of trying Legendary Solo. Depends on my mood on the 6th of November.

QFT

I think Normal will be fine for me, for my “Story-driven” first playthrough. Then I’ll run through it after gathering strategies on LASO Solo like I’ve done with Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST and Halo Reach.

I play on Legendary Solo because I like a challenge.

Not any of the things you listed OP.

Im definitely doing Legendary first to get that Mark VI helmet!

Solo legendary for me. Chief wouldnt be put off by a challenge.

> Im definitely doing Legendary first to get that Mark VI helmet!

Yep. This.

Legendary Co-Op with my bros and sis for me. It should help me build strategies for my solo run.

I wont be playing legendary solo, I’ll have my bro with me. Two Chiefs are better than one…Unless the other is Evil.

^ Please tell that isn’t how you really talk… Anyways, I’ll hopefully be playing it on Legendary. It’s kind of a tradition to play it first on the hardest.

I’m doing the same. I do legendary co-op with my brother and then I’ll go through it Legendary Solo later.

i always play first on heroic to know what kind of enemies i will face off on Legendary and be prepared
