Back in the day of Halo 3 there were certain achievements/challenges you could do to unlock the Recon helmet.

Beat the final level of halo 3 on legendary, 4 player co-op with each player driving a different vehicle: A ghost, a warthog, a mongoose, and a chopper.

You're talking about the achievements you had to do to unlock Recon? That was a PITA to do.

It was originally, then Bungie added a list of achievements you had to earn to unlock it.

Its better known as the Vidmaster challenge. And you had to do all of this:

Vidmaster Challenge: Lightswitch: Get the rank of Lieutenant in any playlist in the new EXP progression system.

Vidmaster Challenge: Annual: After 9/25/08, complete Halo (Final level) on 4-player Legendary LIVE co-op, with Iron, and everyone in Ghosts.

Vidmaster Challenge: 7 on 7: Enter into a ranked or social playlist with 7 EXP on the 7th of the month.

Vidmaster Challenge: Brainpan: Find all the hidden skulls on the Mythic maps.
Halo 3: ODST

Vidmaster Challenge: Endure: In Firefight, on any mission, pass the 4th set on 4-player Heroic LIVE co-op.

Vidmaster Challenge: Deja Vu: Complete Coastal Highway on 4-player Legendary LIVE co-op, with Iron, and no 'Hog or Scorpion.

Vidmaster Challenge: Classic: Finish any Campaign level on Legendary solo without shooting or throwing a grenade (Power sliding and honking the horn on vehicles will be counted as shooting/grenade throwing).

They were called Vidmaster challenges, from halo 3 and ODST.

Halo 3
Vidmaster Challenge: Lightswitch: "Get the rank of Lieutenant in any playlist in the new EXP progression system."
Vidmaster Challenge: Annual: "After 9/25/08, complete Halo (Final level) on 4-player Legendary LIVE co-op, with Iron, and everyone in Ghosts."
Vidmaster Challenge: 7 on 7: "Enter into a ranked or social playlist with 7 EXP on the 7th of the month."
Vidmaster Challenge: Brainpan: "Find all the hidden skulls on the Mythic maps."

Halo 3: ODST
Vidmaster Challenge: Endure: "In Firefight, on any mission, pass the 4th set on 4-player Heroic LIVE co-op."
Vidmaster Challenge: Deja Vu: "Complete Coastal Highway on 4-player Legendary LIVE co-op, with the Iron skull on and without using Warthogs or Scorpion Tanks."
Vidmaster Challenge: Classic: "Finish any Campaign level on Legendary solo without shooting or throwing a grenade (Power sliding and honking the horn on vehicles will be counted as shooting/grenade throwing)."

I could never find a group of friends who were willing and good enough to actually push through Annual or Endure.

As someone who had a group of friends who did the challenges together and got Recon, it was bloody awful.

It was originally exclusive to Bungie employees, but later on was released to the public locked behind a bunch of super difficult achievements for the base game and ODST when they switched over to the flaming helmets.

I also personally thought Recon looked ugly as ♥♥♥♥ and the helmet looked like a diaper. Only ever used the armor as a bragging right.

I was more of a scout helmet guy myself. But I was also a katana degenerate.

I loved Hayabusa the most, Scout wasn't bad either, Eva's helmet was kinda cool too.

Already got ever single Achievement in Halo 3 and I'm not planing on gettin them again, as it takes way to much time.

I hope Stats and Achievements are linked to your account.
