Finally finished with the 20 minute presentation (I think I'll hit 30+ with it though). I'll do the 7 minute one in school.

Time for 55 minutes of sleep! Today is gonna be tons of fun, I can tell.
 
[quote name='MusicNoteLess']I'm so close I could taste it. Just got the Your show sucks achievement.

980/1000

Now I need to find the rest of those intel items.[/QUOTE]

Cool, I got MHC last, so that was very satisfying to finally get that after 6 hours and getting my first 1000/1000.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']fuck you people and your mile high club. I should've had it already. :cry:[/QUOTE]

Hey don't feel too bad. It took me 3 2-hour sessions to get it.
 
Now this is an accurate OTT title.

Oy, picked up two or three hundred GPs over the weekend and dropped 20 spots.

rant below.

its because i tried to follow the advice of shooting the hostage taker in the legs. haven't been able to get back yet. occasionally close, but the fucking game cheats so bad, i haven't been able to do it. one of several things happen:

(a) miracle terrorists somehow manage to withstand flashbang, shoot me instantly.

(b) miracle terrorists take 5 shots to chest, still perform last stand which (1) either kills me straight up or (2) acts as a roadblock, since my dipshit marine can't step over a body on the ground unless it's dead

(c) asshole AI doesn't know what it's doing -- they're either lolligagging in the back, yucking it up over a cold one while i get shot, or they're getting in my way. i once made it up to the flashbangs with something like 20 seconds left, but my asshole AI cut in front of me throwing the flashbang, (came from behind me) it bounced off his head, blinded us all, and by the time it cleared, there was only 8 seconds or so left and i tried to sprint to the end.

these fucking videos on youtube -- i've counted the enemies that appear, and i don't know what fucking magic trick they use, but there are always more enemies in my runs than in theirs -- like in the final corridor, i end up with four-six dead bodies in the aisle, a couple more on the right, TWO behind the chairs on the left, and there's still 4+ in the hallway once you clear the cabin. that first cabin and that last cabin are always different in mine than on the videos of others. :bomb:

since i basically had the fucking thing before and figured i'd follow the advice i'd gotten somewhere of "last terrorist is easy shoot him in the leg" (which nobody told me didn't work on veteran apriori), i figure i should have HAD the achievement... but now I just get so fucking frustrated I have to turn the game off. I've probably put 5 hours into this so far... fuck. I need to finish this so I can sell this fucking game.

one of you should log in as me and get it for me.
 
[quote name='zewone']I'd kick who's ever ass that told you to shoot the guy in the leg.[/quote]

Might've been Rokko. :bouncy: I know he said it yesterday, but I had this happen on Friday. D= I can't remember where I originally got it. I got to thinking, "hey, I should do this the surest/easiest way possible, that leg thing should work nicely, so i don't just miss and hit the hostage..." fuckING WRONG.

So who wants to do it for me? :D

Yeah, tried to download it when I first got my 360 and it would refuse to download, but now it works.
 
Shooting the guy in the leg works on every difficulty EXCEPT Vet.

I found that 25% of the time flashbangs don't flash people. Sometimes it doesn't flash you either, which is good, but when they don't get flashed, you might as well restart, it's game over.

The most annoying thing for me was last stand guys. You'd be sprinting around, and suddenly get shot from behind. Oh that guy's last standing. Great.

I'm a run and gun player. I almost always run with a MP5 or P90 online and Extreme Conditioning. The strategy that worked best for me was a run and gun strategy. Get to the top floor as fast as possible, encountering and shooting as few enemies as possible. The top floor is a bitch, especially the last hallway. I would say I could beat MHC 1/8 times with my strategy now, as I was getting to the terrorist about 1/8 of the time before I finally headshotted him after about 4 meetings.

EDIT: part of my problem and why it took me 6 hours WAS watching YouTube videos. The strategies on there range from bizarre to downright stupid. One guy ran through it using just the pistol. I tried that a few times, ya right. Another guy didn't get to the stairs until :15, are you kidding me? I finally decided to get to the stairs with at least :30 so I could give myself a reload before the final hall. So basically, you need to develop a strategy based on your skills. If you can run and gun, I suggest flying through the first floor and getting upstairs ASAP.

I gave up getting GPs from that one when I tried to get past the news room in Charlie Don't Surf for about an hour on Veteran. :lol:
 
Neither are, really...

Although, the couch puts me into a coma, for whatever reason. :whistle2:k
