Halo Reach Tricking Q&A

[Ducain]

I wanted to kick this off, since folks have been asking.

Let's limit this to tricking/easter egg/etc type questions. General Reach stuff, Reach credits, XBL stuff should go in a sticky in the Reach General Discussion area.

So there you are. Have at it.

I'm probably NOT going to be checking this often, so if you need help with the thread for whatever reason, and you can't get another mod or admin to help, just send me a PM.

Cheers.

Can someone make a video for launching using different vehicles. I'm using a truck atm and for the life of me I can't get it to work at all.

Has anybody found out what the weapon called "classified" is?

Seems like I have been killed by it once and have killed something that way once.

It's almost all the way down at the bottom of the page and has the emblem of a skull.
The description reads "Everybody has secrets."

That's for Halo 3. I think it's basically a kill without using a weapon.

I can't play right now, but I was wondering if the AA wraith glitch would work with the back of the transport hog.

Does anyone need a member to a tricking
clan if so I'd be highly interested. PM me the details

Whats up with the invisible Elite at the very beginning of Winter Contingency when you play on Legendary? He seems to carry a info pad.

Here a screenshot:


He is really fast and disappears after walking around the corner. I didnt suceed in killing him, did any of you?

Awesome, thanks for the link!

Even though it kills my tiny tiny hope it would be new. Knowing it was way too obvious to be new ^^

This isn't really a question as much as it is just an answer. Pretty sure this falls under the easter egg/random gameplay:

Grunts teabag you now. I have a film clip if any of you are interested...

Uploading to file share. Won't be able to render it, but yeah... Seriously was getting so stressed out, then that happened and it seriously just relieved every last bit of that, hahaha.

This might be a silly question, but how do you spawn an oddball in Forge? I'm pretty sure it should be under objectives, but it's not there. I know this isn't about tricking but this is the only Q&A. Help! :(

[marbig]

Have you changed the Forge gametype to Oddball in the Forge menu, before you hit start game?

Yeah I created my own Oddball gametype and that's what I used in the Forge menu, but an oddball doesn't show up under objectives. I'll try again some other time.

[Danza67]

Set editing type to Odball. in game then objectives> Flag Stand> Press x> Advanced> then Change game type Label to Odball or OB_ Ball.

[I Love Gruntz]

I got it to work guys. Thanks. I'm not used to the advanced settings.

[marbig]

Can someone please try and explain this suicide for me?
I went up the Reflection elevator, and as I got to the top, died without warning. I'm completely confused.
Sorry for the lack of Bungie Pro

This isn't worth a thread so i'll just post it here. Did you know that the locator reloads itself? That's why you can pick it up even if it's "empty" unlike other weapons. In campaign, it will reload fairly fast by itself. In firefight, it will reload at the start of every new round.

I rendered marbig's video. All I can guess is that you lagged a little, and so you lagged a little inside the elevator, like the tip of your shoes, and I discovered (painfully) reach hates players being in solid objects.

[marbig]

That's pretty interesting OTfor2.
Thanks for the render and the explanation =)
