Halo CE - killed by marines in SP

[Chris Solomon]

I was playing through the marine rescue mission at the begining of the SP campaign, when all of a sudden the marines started shooting me. I tried to stat out of their range, but they just chased me down, instead of getting on to the stupid dropship to evacuate..... is that supposed to happen????

This is badly designed as ♥♥♥♥. I'm on the third mission where you rescue captain keyes. I'm on heroic difficulty and I've been blown up by marines 5 times now, which is more than the cov have killed me. So I killed all the marines early in the level to stop that from happening.

Now I'm softlocked because when I rescue keyes from his cell he and all the marines immediately open fire on me after the cutscene. I can kill all the marines but that doesn't stop keyes from shooting me and I can't take cover from both him and protect him at the same time.

Loved CE back in the day but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ this is awful.

It’s all part of the Halo CE experience. You just gotta be more careful.

The ai always did that bud, if you tell them to get out of the gunner, they will go for the next available seat instead after you get in the drivers. It's part of the coding which was added for CoOp. Please don't let nostalgia blind you.

For me, they just get out and never take another seat and just go away LOL.

Nostalgia blinding me? What do you mean by that?

The ai act in the same manner as the always have, and i have never ran into this "issue" where they never get back in the seat. Either you are doing something wrong, or you are omitting key information regarding what occurred. And the part about Nostalgia Blindness refers to your comment:

I don't remember back in the days they were so stupid. I feel the AI is broken even more now.

Marines forgive you again after a while. Get out of the way of grenades. They cause chain reactions and are responsible for the majority of deaths. It's poorly designed, but not /that/ poorly.
What really is poorly designed is the fact that Captain Keyes can die on that mission. And he loves running right into the enemy army with no cover.

I've had a couple of incidents with marines fragging me in the covenant ship. Turns out, I was tunnel-visioning on the aliens and didn't notice the marines announcing that they were tossing frags. And I kept on wondering which alien was bombing me and with what weapon.

How you can do something wrong? I just go back in the Warthog as I always did.
It's not a question of nostalgia, just that I remember they were going back in it when they were around it when I went back in as a driver.

here's something i just tried becuase i got bored..... on the very first level, when the captain gives you his pistol, proceed as normal, until the weapon goes active.... then double back and shoot the captain in the the head.... quickly shoot the other bridge crew in the head before security arrives..... it's f***ing hilarious..... i would have kept going, but the security team had god mode active....

I came out of the maintenance acces and killed some elites fighting with some marines, so Im heading around the corner shooting at some grunts when this marine throws a grenade into a bulkhead in front of him, grenade lands at my feet.

I live long enough to say "you motherffff"

i discovered something wonderous a little thing a while ago.... chain reaction exlposions! i noticed it when i saw a flood zombie burster set off a bigger explosion followed by and evn bigger explosion.... appeaerently, you can cause grenade ammo to explode! i can think of all kinds of shenanigans to try with that mechanic in MP! (please that it is MP too!). i accidently got caught in oe of the chain reactions, and the master chief learned a new trick: flying! I/he went really, really airborrne.

Here is something fun you can do:
Play "The Silent Cartographer" in coop.
Drive towards the first building. At the bottom of it, there is an overshield.
Put your car next to it.
Now start brutally murdering your teammate over and over again. During each death, he drops a few grenades.
Once you think you have had enough, let your teammate take the overshield and get into the car right as you drop a grenade under the car.
The overshield will make your teammate invincible for a short amount of time. If the grenade goes off during that period, all other grenades will explode. He and the car will be catapulted into the air and out of bounds immediately.

LMAO!!!! that sounds unbelievable awesome! i havent yet tried shooting rocket ammo too see if it explodes or not.... fingers crossed.

[Coffee]

You could do that in Reach too!

[Chris Solomon]

sweet.... did not realize that.

Not really, as there is no overshield powerups in reach and the vehicles are destroyable, and in mp the grenades do not chain explode.

[Chris Solomon]

explains why i could not get it to happen in reach.... i expended 2 full clips of ammo just shooting at some grenades that had been dropped. and NOTHING happened..... well i say nothing, but a dropship did drop off aliens and i found myself critically short on ammo. going around smacking aliens with your weapon because you ran out of ammo, is not as fun as it sounds.

You can shoot at floor grenades in reach, you need a precision weapon.
They don't chain react though
