    Data Pads, anyone?!

    it seems Bungie left something akin to the terminals littered on Reach's surface. Data pads with somewhat-cryptic information tell a 19 part story.
    i'm just now touching the surface of this, but it's pretty deep, it seems. there's also reverberant reversed audio, just like in the terminals!

    fun stuff? of course!

    i'm going to go play some multiplayer...

    I came across one on the last level when I was doing my solo Legendary run. Just as you meet up with the last group of marines (as you head out the door to where you later meet up with Keyes) you walk down a hallway indoors with breakable windows on each side. The left side has doors you can walk through, but the right don't. You have to crouch-jump through the window to get in to the room and the Data Pad is in the back left corner on the table.

    And if anyone was wondering why I was looking there, I had only 1 frag grenade left and no other ammo. :)

    Has anyone else come across any? Yes, I know you can look up the locations, but has anyone actually stumbled across them?

    By the way, how hard is the jetpacking segment solo legendary? I'm not there yet, but I want a glimpse of what I'm up against later.

    easy bring needle weapons.  they pwn brutes.

    Or you could use my method...that requires a bit of jetpacking skill. Once you get the jetpack you can fly all the way to the end of the level...using ledges and such. This allows you to skip at least 30 minutes of fighting...and if you bring some type of rocket launcher (or fuel rod gun) you can even take out those long range AA turrets before the enemies start to spawn.

    Nooo... Forreals? I was a great stunt/ledge campaign jumper in Halo 3, I'll try to remember that.  I find the jetpack a little crude,  inefficient, and slow though.  Nothing like the old MC super jump.

    If I had a capture card I'd post it...wait a minute. I'll do it tomorrow and post the video to my file share. You have to jump on all the right ledges (which are mostly support struts for the buildings) but you can make it to the end fairly quickly without fighting through a couple of videos.

    Actually, I found this on accident. When running from the grunts with fuel rod guns at the end, I accidentally fell off the edge of the building. Using my jet-pack, I landed where you first got them and made my way back up.

    for those of you who have played through the campaign... was it everything you wanted?
    me personally thought Bungie did a tremendous job keeping the right balance of helplessness and determination.
    what are your thoughts?

     and also... the ending. did you hate it?

    "where's the Legendary ending?! i want my secret ending! where is it?" --i'm still holding my breath for an extra ending with Legendary, but as of now, i haven't seen anything different. have you guys?

    Re: Halo Reach Impressions... (SPOILERS are welcome)

    so has anyone figured out what the data pad thing is?

    i'm currently at work so i can't go fumbling through countless pages of blabbering on Bungie.net.

    I'm 47/49. All I need is the Captain/Lt.Colonel achievements.

    Legendary solo was easy, you just need mad/mediocre DMR sk1llz. DMR needs a bigger clip though.

    dude, i easily spent 6 hours in Forge World. i made a asymmetrical bridge across the "coastline" and island, connecting the two. there's two sandy pathways that act as natural landbridges, but without really seeing it, the description isn't really interesting....

    good luck with your design!

    Thanks, What you call 30 minutes is 1.5 hours for me on legendary(except for the vehicle parts),  what's your gamertag so I know what fileshare to check?
