Halo Reach Daily Challenge 30/10/2010

Hey guys, Gauntleted halo squirrel here, our hatted friend is out for today so I'm covering this one (I'm the other guy in the background picture). Hope I can be of just as much help as fox.

Here we go.

Shootin' and Lootin'- Kill 150 enemies in any game mode in Reach - 1500 cR

I think you guys got the idea for this one by now; the next two challenges will easily cover this challenge.

Fire When Ready - Kill 50 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking - 500 cR

Nice and simple 50 kills to all of those of you who have yet to finish the weekly challenge like me. Multi-team is the safe bet but of course you can play any playlist you like.

A Satisfied Thirst - Kill 250 Grunts in Firefight Matchmaking - 2000 cR

Gruntapocolypse Score Attack is the answer to this challenge, 2 and a half games to be exact

Home Field Advantage - Win 4 games in multiplayer Matchmaking 800 cR

Just play any playlist you want for this but going for something such as Team Slayer gives a higher of a win as there are only 3 possible outcomes; win (49%), loss (49%) and tie (2%), where as Multi-Team slayer will have 7 outcomes; win (16.6%), 2nd (16.6%), 3rd (16.6%), 4th (16.6%) 5th (16.6%), 6th (16.6%) and tie (0.4%) (these percentages are just what may happen with completely even odds and do not have any mathematical significance).

4800 cR all together, enjoy the credits and the soon to be lifted level cap. Our hatted friend will be back with us tomorrow.

Halo Reach Daily Challenge 29/10/2010

Morning all, it's Friday so the weekend is almost here. This means that tomorrow, there is a high possibility there won't be a post, it'll most likely be a mini post if anything. However, today we've got a bit of a mix and match.

More Than A Handful – Kill 125 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking – 1250 cR

This is what's going to help with the weekly Challenge. Very basic, I'll leave you to decide how you want to do it.

Covenant-cide – Kill 60 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking – 500 cR

We've had this one enough this week but on a slightly larger scale.


The House of Blue Leaves – Kill 111 enemies in a single Firefight Matchmaking game on Heroic – 3000 cR

A single game of Gruntpocolypse gives you about 120. As long as their aren't any suicides or teamkills, this one should be easy.


A Side of Huevos – Kill 40 enemies with Sniper Rifle headshots in Nightfall – 1500 cR

You're given 60 Bullets, the only tricky bit is making sure you've got the Grunts & Jackals heads in your sights. I'm sure once you've run out of ammo you restart.


6250 cR altogether. Not too bad, The single player & Firefights shouldn't take you too long leaving you with enough time to get the MP kills. So yeah, have fun, may or may not see you tomorrow.

Halo Reach Daily Challenge 28/10/2010

Sigh, yesterday was a good day for the challenges. Today involves, a LOT of Firefight. To be fair, they aren't that hard but it's still not helping that weekly, but that's why I'm here. Tried & Tested quick methods. So let's do this quick and get back to Multiplayer:


One Spartan Army - Kill 150 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. 1500 cR

No point going for this one. The other challenges will get it for you.


Hyper Lethal Vector - Kill 200 enemies with headshots in Firefight Matchmaking. 2000 cR

Gruntpocolypse, DMR + Grunts = Easy Headshots.


Points, Points - Score 20,000 points in a Firefight Matchmaking game. 2500 cR

Now, It's not impossible to get this on Sniperfight and Probably Mythic Attack (Something I'll be trying shortly) But you're almost guaranteed is on regular 3 round Firefight.


One Game, One Spawn - Complete a Firefight Matchmaking game without dying. 1000 cR

If this really is a 3 round Firefight, this could be problematic. Pick either a very large or very small map. Corvette can cause lots of fun for your Team-mates who won't mind launching rockets everywhere and gives you narrow halls back to your spawn. If you can do it on Scoreattack, then choosing Sniperfight and putting distance between you and them will be a life saver.


7000 cR from all that though. Possibly one of the biggest we've ever seen. Hopefully shouldn't take more that a couple of hours. Best go get started then. Bye

Halo Reach Daily Challenge 27/10/2010

Hello, welcome, do sit down. Bungie have set us more on the right track. Today we have 2 Multiplayer challenges, 1 general and only the one Firefight. So relax and get 4150 cR today and add those kills to your weekly. (P.S. I hit the Rank cap yesterday so, yeay)


Covenant-cide - Kill 90 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. 1000 cR

You know what to do, set up that Score Attack and get this one done in less than 10 minutes. 10 min = 1000 cR, If were only always like that.


Five-time Champ - Win 5 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. 750 cR

Not really much I can help you with. If you play enough you'll get it.


Oops! All Kills - Earn 5 Multikills in multiplayer Matchmaking. 400 cR

Seems like a small amount but hey, it's the kills that count. (Edit) I'm an idiot, Multikills. Yeah. MultiTeam for Multikills.

Finally,

Blastin' and Relaxin' - Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach. 2000 cR

Just by playing you get this. 90 minimal from CC followed up by attempts of the other challenges, I'm sure you can get this one, even if it requires you going into custom games. Easy 2000 cR.


So there we have it, back on track for the Weekly. Have fun and try not to hurt yourself.

Halo Reach Daily Challenge 26/10/2010 UPDATE

So, as far as "Leader" goes, it's more or less Elite. So go kill Elites. Go play some Campaign. The last part of Long Night of Solace is good. That is all. Busy.
