Lame... now I'm not special anymore. Everybody has it.

BTW... can somebody tell me what was previously needed to unlock it. I honestly have no idea how it happened.

I'm kinda stuck again, it is after you have to cap off that one guy in the chair. I'm not gonna say the name cuz it spoils bad.
But I'm an elite in this level, and I'm in this room filled flood and the floating laser shooting guys, and my only listed goal is to escape, but I can't really find anywhere.
I tried going in one fo the big cavities in the walls that the flood come out of, but there is nothing in there. Can anybody help me?




(P.S. How do I make my text invisible like you guys do for spoiler warnings?)

use the spoiler tag < spoiler > and < / spoiler > but replace the <> with []

As to your question, there's a door. You just have to find it.

I got it for xmas - and as with the first game i'm finding it very absorbing. I havent read the rest of the posts to avoid spoilers etc, and likewise will not say much.

Did an 11hour stint on boxing day, gave me weird dreams

spoiler(highlight to read):
There are these thick square column-things with a blue glowing strip of Forerunner control-panel down the side. Run up to one and it'll tell you to hit X to activate, and the piston will go away. Those are most of the doors in this level.

Tsk, tsk! that almost sounds like an ageist remark from one 'oldie' to another

I prefer it when a game offers me many chances to have 'marathon' sessions. Its getting harder to find titles that offer it these days.

And on that note i played Halo2 for another 3 hours yesterday evening and finished the game. So another game of 15hrs or so 'entertainment'

Oh well it was fun while it lasted, but overall not as fun as the origonal i'd say?

Anyway Elite3 is still going strong for me after about 20hrs playing, with no end in sight

That's fine and dandy, but they shouldn't have marketed this game as being the fight for Earth's very existence bla bla bla if it was not going to take place on Earth.

Why play Halo multiplayer when you could play a real multiplayer FPS like Battlefield, Counter Strike, Day of Defeat, ect... ?

True......but i think Kuciwalker is right - Halo2 feels like its been designed mostly for the MP. The single player experience wasn't as fun for me as in the first game, it also seemed much easier(on the default Normal setting), and only took about 2/3rds of the time to finish.

And i understand that after Halo, much of the fan base suggested many things to improve MP - Having had a look at these options in Halo2 it certainly looks like they have had a huge overhall which is good.

If i can persuade my gf i might try the co-op game, which is fun, but as i have no Live the MP is mostly irrelevant for me.

But its ok - it was fun while it lasted, just ended a bit abruptly and not when i was expecting it.

Still Halo3 has its fans waiting now

I think the game is slightly longer, but the difficulty levels were rejigged.
