User:Fury (Tac Nuke)/Fun stuff

This is a list of fun stuff to try on Halo and Halo 2. I welcome any additions. Furthermore, I know it's not something canon or anything but it's just something I think will be important...and fun and challenging.

Please add anything you think is fun until we have a huge list. Thanks.

Halo
Try this on Assault on the Control Room:

Make it through one of the rooms where all the grunts are asleep and a few elites are on patrol without waking any of the grunts up and making sure none of the Elites see you. It gets much tougher as the difficulty increases but it's totally worth it.

On any difficulty, at the part where you've just finished with the Scorpion Tank and the Cortana tells the Marines that they're gonna get picked up, try to kill them all. It's really hard but having a sniper rifle and some grenades will help.

This one is obvious, but try to steal the Banshee on the bridge. Destroying the Wraith is lots of fun.

I'm not sure if this is true so I'd appreciate confimation and I don't know what difficulty it's on. I hear that if you take a Ghost in the part Rolling Thunder and race to the top and kill the elite before he hops in the Wraith you can steal it. I've heard it works just like the Scorpion but it uses the huge plasma blob instead of a tank shell.

This is one for any level but I love it on Assault, use some ridiculous weapon like the plasma pistol, my personal favorite, and use only that weapon. Obviously you can't use it to kill everything enemy especially Hunters but it's still fun. A variation on this is only meleeing enimies but it's more difficult since you can't take out anything in the air or too far away but that just makes it harder and more fun.

Try this on Pillar of Autumn:

Go through it as fast as possible.

Do the three weapons trick.

Kill everyone in the bridge. This is tough since Cortana gets some Marines to get you.

Try this on The Maw:

Get as many Flood Buddies as possible...it's fun to use them for cover or just get them all together and 'nade them (use frags because plasma grenades will kill you)

Go to the armory and grab a rocket launcher and complete the rest of the level with just that. You'll have to be conservative with ammo and melee often.

Halo 2
On any level:

Choose the Warthog over any other vehicle especially if no one is in it with you and go as fast as you can.

Give all your marines the same weapon, I prefer the carbine or battle rifle.

Try this on Metropolis:

Steal every vehicle. That means kill your marines and run up and hijack all the ghosts and the wraiths and if you can the banshees. As a side note, if you walk up the bridge at the spot where you usually get the rocket marine you'll also get a sniper marine.

Go through without firing a single shot...You can make up your own rules like whether or not you can use grenades but you can't fire your gun.

Grab the Scorpion at the end before it's destroyed by the Scarab or try to drive the Warthog onto it when it stops.

Make sure none of your marines die. If you do this and wait until the end you can see most of them following you to the building the other marines are stuck in.

Get the Warthog instead of the Scorpion and make sure the rocket marine is in the passenger side so he can still use it. Then go up as fast as you can but still getting every ghost and wraith.
