Looking on bungie forums melee's are based on who has the most health when 2 people melee each other in a small time frame... that's an appalling way to program them tbh and whoever hits first should do the damage first!

I must admit, the actual quality of maps in Halo3 is definitely sub-standard.
Especially when you compare it to something like GRAW2 which just has absolute quality maps throughout.

Aye the snow one is bloody crap.

I know mate, it annoys me too. I think I'll leave the game alone until it's patched.

Just tried it out now its not that bad, I just get mixed up with reloads. It will probably be customs though since everyone in Halo 2 matchmaking plays Halo 3 now

I swear the graphics are better on Halo 2 on a SDTV too. (please don't kill me.)

If I play on campaign (co-op) on my own, does that count as me completing the level in Solo mode?

I completed Arrival and Sierra 117 on Heroic and then was stuck on Crows Nest, which I then played as Co-op online. Now when I resume my Solo campaign it is on the 1st level. Even though I am actually on level 3. Is there anyway to go back to Level 3 in solo mode? In Campaign it shows I have the shields for level 1 and 2 as solo, no shield for level 3 and co-op shield for level 4.

I am confused, how I can have a shield for level 4 but not 3.

You have to complete a level from start to finish in one sitting to get the shield and swords.

Ah OK.

And to get the Solo award now for say Level 3. Would I now have to play though level 1 and 2 again and then reach 3 in Solo mode. Or could I do campaign (co-op) with just 1 player, and get the same award. (In campaign mode I can select levels 1-5, but I only actually completed Level 1 and 2 in solo mode, but my game save now is back to the beginning for some reason).

I was playing through on heroic, so will be annoyed if I have to do level 1 and 2 again.

It's only that specific level but you don't gain anything from doing solo iirc, as all the achievements can be had in coop.

Whenever you play a new campaign it deletes your old save point
