Is this like every other Halo game where you do not get the achievement for completing a level unless you complete the entire level in one sitting (no continuing from checkpoints)?

Does anyone know if you can obtain the "Sharing is Caring" achievement if you are a free Xbox live member? Because there's a free gold weekend going on now.

The article posted today on the home of x360a says free members can access Internet Explorer on the Xbox. You previously couldn't do that if you were using a 2 day or 14 day trial code.

Don't want to make a new thread about this but does anyone know if there is any way you can check how many challenges you've completed?

Go to the Spartan hub and look at yer service record. That should have the number completed.

I've been trying to hijack that first wraith on that pain in the ass level. I'm after mortardom. I've got a nice wee routine down where I can wipe everyone out so it's just me and the wraith, but for whatever reason I can't plant myself in that gunner seat. I'm attempting it with just sprinting, jumping and using the jet pack without using the plasma pistol. Any hints?

Yea, use a plasma pistol. The first wraith you come across is not that useful since you won't be able to get it onto the mammoth to cross the tributary. But you might be able to if you destroy the wraith's pointy sides. So if you have to, get the wraith in the next area with the 3 shields you have to destroy. Get a plasma pistol and any precision weapon. Take out the gunner. Plasma pistol the wraith, doing it multiple times if you have to and then jump on it and get on the plasma turret. This forces the driver to get out allowing you to kill him with the turret. You can kill 3 or 4 wraiths in the next section but then you come across another tributary. So you have to leave that wraith behind and continue. In the next area, make sure you grab a plasma pistol before you enter the forerunner area and carry it with you until you get back outside. Outside there will be many wraiths. Just got this a few hours ago, so everything is fresh in my head lol.

Just finished the last episode in spartan ops and didnt get the dedicated to crimson achievement for finishing the first 5 episodes of spartan ops. Is this glitched? Did anyone else have this problem?

This is my first run of the campaign and I decided to do it on Legendary, and have been stuck on this part for a few days now haha. I was lucky enough to get in the gunner once, but instead of using the gun to kill the elite who hopped out I hopped out and tried to take him on myself, which was just nerves and excitement kicking in from actually hopping in that fucking gun! I may try saving a grunt or something, after knocking out the 4 ghosts (I've heard the number of ghosts that are dropped by the Phantom at this stage is unlimited, but from my checkpoint only two more are dropped after destroying the two original grounded ones) and using the plasma pistol against it.

I've heard twice now that the first wraith isn't usually the best one, because you have to try squeeze it through a tight area, but just to save any unforeseen hassle down the line, I'll keep trying to get this one. Due to it being my first time solo legendarying this game, I don't wanna get a wraith after all this time just to fuck it all up haha.

Not true. I've gotten the first wraith onto the mammoth many times to get it across the first river. It just takes patience and a little driving finesse to fit it in the mammoth.

Can't seem to get the 3 jet pack achievo

[RandomHero92]

hate these dlc achievements

[BustaMo]

I just got the achievement playing solo where on the Forerunner mission where you have to carry a UNSC weapon the whole way through the mission til the end without dropping it. It was on Heroic so that was even tougher since I was doing it solo, but dang when you run out of ammo on that 2nd gun and can only use your first, that's brutal. I made it through, but that's a pretty long level to top it off.

[Jaker12587]

Does anyone know if the DLC achievements from Crimson and Majestic are obtainable on the Castle maps? I think I remember being able to do this in Reach and 3, but not 100%.
