I just finished the first half of Halo 2 on legendary in 1 sitting

Most people tried it when they were like 10 so difficulty may be inflated, but there are some pretty unfair places, Sniper jackals are the usual suspects for this, but I'm personally having a lot of trouble with the drones in H2A.
I just don't remember them being as aggressive, and they don't seem to die to headshots, they're dangerous even on Normal. There are also places like the start of Gravemind where you can get killed due to how immediate danger is and the title card makes it so you're HUD-less for a few moments

I just beat the whole thing on Legendary. It was pretty hard but perfectly fair in 99% of scenarios, even with jackal snipers.
I'd say gravemind and the great journey, even.

I played heroic and I thought it was super fun, until I got to gravemind and brutes started showing up. Am I the only one?

You can actually skip the entire jackal section easily in mission 2 if you grenade jump on a certain building and leave the boundaries. Halo 2 is actually much easier if you watch a few speedrun videos to learn tricks to bypass hard parts.

It's not hard, its just not fun

It was probably hard when we were all 13 and retarded. Now 20 years later or whatever, of course it's easier. Gameplay mechanics have been established across all genres and you already know how to play games properly.

>Why do people act like it’s a fucking nightmare on legendary? Are the super hard parts later in the game? What am I missing?
I don't know, but PCfags really find it very hard.

Not to defend this pile of shit, but I have a feeling this counts everybody that has launched MCC, not just Halo 2. So even people like me, who only bought/played reach and was already finished with 343, are counted against people who have that achievement.

>dude Gravemind wasnt that hard
yeah sure dude you totally beat it

It's just because they charge at you.

>I dont get the sniper jackal meme
>fair in 99% of scenarios, even with jackal snipers
there have been moments where the BR didnt headshot a jackal sniper because of the range and he was facing the other direction, resulting in the jackal doing an instant 180 and headshotting both me and my coop partner. yeah the jackals are completely fine and fair.

I actually found the first level to be the hardest. The fucking ultras in the cargo bay wrecked my shit more than I could care to count. It's even worse when you consider it takes two overcharged plasma pistol shots to down their shields and they're the only enemy in the game aside from Hunters that can survive a fucking plasma nade stick

The meme is from the game deciding to autosave a millisecond before a jackal sniper domes you. No other enemy is capable of soft locking you.

Wow dude we're all super impressed by how hardcore and skilled you are.
Does anyone actually think posts like this aren't super transparent?

>Because they all got filtered by Cairo station
is that one of the harder missions?
i did it on legendary like 3 days ago, the flying cunts are hard as hell but it was pretty doable for the most part

Brutes would be more fun if their charge animation didnt fuck up their head hitbox

I played it on heroic and didn't feel any desire to touch the game again, unless 3 is thw absolute best game ever made (which is highly doubtful considering the quality of the other 3 games released) I'm just gonna uninstall after I finish 3 and ODST and never touch the games again.

The first two games copypaste hallways/corridors making the missions longer and 3 is retardedly easy on even legendary. You can easily beat 3 in 6 hours. So if you didn't like the last two then just give up on anything afterwards.

>the game is easy if you break it and don't play it
You sound kinda like a nitwit

Some parts are hard to beat without the noob combo

I think the only shit parts are the respawning sniper jackals on Metropolis and the instant aggro on Gravemind start+prison elevator.

Obviously I kill snipers before I move into an area, so I was just incredulously watching like 6+ sniper jackals walk up to the platform I had killed the previous ones.

First half of the game is easy. Regret and Gravemind are the only real hard missions. Gravemind is the pits when it comes to halo missions. Especially the beginning and the prison fight.

I think youre missing your medal. Somebody get this user his big boy medal. He completed the first half of Halo 2 Legendary in 1 sitting. You heard that right, ONE, sitting.
