Marathon Durandal Vidmaster

Anyone out there looking to team up to get this achievement?

Hey bud, I’d be glad to help but right now I’m unable. Now, in case you’re not completely informed, here’s a few tips to refresh your mind:

  1. All bobs, aside from evil bobs, have to be dead or have teleported out before you end a level.

  2. Every switch that you use needs to be either A) Punched with fist, B) Shot with Assault Rifle’s Grenade, or C) Shot with fusion pistol. DO NOT USE/ACTIVE THEM NORMALY, NEVER EVER. To press “A” is not to punch.

  3. The difficulty must be set to “Total Carnage”.

Now, the game consists of 28 Levels. So what I’d recommend is that, if you have an extra controller, play on Split-Screen Co-Op, and that way you’ll be able to start from Level 18 (The Big House), and from there, just keep focused on the Tips 1, 2, and 3. It won’t matter if you die, as you’ll respawn with no loss of progress (You’ll have to pick up your items though, so make sure you don’t go face-first into lava pools). You’ll be more relaxed and won’t have to take your time and/or depend on other people who might not be available at the time you will. As well as avoiding any connection-related issues that might result in a waste of your time.

John - thanks for the tips. I finished up Marathon today thanks to a helping hand from somebody over in the true achievement forums. Vidmaster seemed like a beast at first but I actually got it on my first attempt.
