You'll never get Mongoose Race. 343i took out the Race gametype. If you're talking about Rocket Race though, I don't think that'll work out either; vehicles are invulnerable in that gametype.

Bullet in the brain- adept is 200

Regicide- Kingslayer- Adept is 40

CTF- Deadly Flag- Proficient is 5

Dominion- Captured- Expert is 40

Edit: Dominion- Captured- Master is 60

[c1assifiedinfo]

Can confirm adept is 10
Expert 25
And master 50

Just a couple more Enemy Commendations for you to add:

Knight Battlewagon Slayer (4/6) Distinguished = 0/150 +2500xp
Watcher Slayer (3/6) Expert = 0/450 +1000xp
Slayer Victory (3/5) Expert = 0/150 +1000xp

I posted this in both threads, just incase it was missed in the other one. Also it looks like Episode 5 has some good farming enemies with good total's for each

That's not really a hurdle, as there is an option when setting up a custom game type to make vehicles invulnerable. Not sure how you'd set up the 3 person teams though... if I'm remembering the game type correctly. Think I only played it once.

Oh, and an additional commendation level

Regicide
Kingslayer [2/5] - Adept = 0/40 - +750 XP

[SkullFire58]

First Strike - Master (4/5) = 0/50 - +2000 xp. Unlocks "Assault" Stance in the Spartan ID card.
Payback - Master (4/5) = 0/500 - +2000 xp.
Avenger - Master (4/5) = 0/360 - +2000 xp. Unlocks "Blindside" Visor

I can also help with the Specializations if you want.

Dominion Victory
0/150 Master

(Search hasn't yielded anything for Exterminator specifically. I get the campaign commendations not counting from time to time, but multiplayer tallies, not so much).

I've been playing a few games of SWAT now, trying to get these last two tallies for Exterminator Master. I'm positive I've been killing every player on the enemy team at least once each match, starting fresh matches just in case - not games in progress. Keeping a sharp eye on names while I'm at it.

I was able to go from 6/18 to 16/18 on SWAT alone today, but now I'm just not getting anything. Other tallies would count just fine, like DMR kills. Any possible reasons why this is?

You're missing someone. Just play normally. It'll come eventually. I don't understand why people are crying over this stuff. If you want to complete all the Commendations, just play. You're a long way from finishing. You will get several done eventually, while working on others at the same time.

[stuhp]

Okay. Well, my bad if it sounded like I was complaining over this commendation. I'm just honestly under the impression I killed everyone at least once. The last game I just came out of, an enemy quit after I killed him, and then I killed his replacement, and I'm absolutely certain everyone else who stayed.

It's annoying, sure, but I'm not about to get mad over it if I'm still getting plenty of kills towards that CIO helmet anyhow

Just have to keep trying tomorrow, I guess.

Just keep playing and it will come eventually. I unlocked it without knowing about that commendation lol.

Just checked Halo Waypoint for match specifics. Last match, there was one enemy spartan who joined and then immediately left (DNF - did not finish). A match or two before shows the same thing. Not sure if that's enough to narrow things down, but could that have potentially screwed me over? Even if the commendation clearly reads "Killed every enemy Spartan that finished the match?"

EDIT: Well, got my Masters commendation out of the way with two more clean games of SWAT - back to back, thankfully. Still confused as to why the others didn't count when I'm positive I killed every enemy at least once, but eh. What's done is done. Thanks anyhow, everyone

Bullet in the Brain- Adept is 200

I found a way to boost the wheelman commendation without co-op or playing war games. It can be done in any chapter that has a ghost (I perfer Episode 1 Chapter 1: Land Grab). Simply find a ghost and find an elite to hijack it from you then simply hijack it back from the elite. Rinse and repeat. Enjoy

Perfection
[3/5] - Expert • 0/4 • +4000 XP
[4/5] - Master • 0/5 • +5000 XP
Executioner
[3/5] - Expert • 0/50 • +1000 XP
[4/5] - Master • 0/50 • +2000 XP

[Xgenosis]

im confused now lol

[LouTenit Dan]

Couple Things I was thinking of could maybe be added and discussed...Commendations when you complete 1 while in game(20 headshots lets say) does that go directly to your Xp cuz I noticed games where I feel like Im not being credited or atleast my XP should be higher for completing XX commendation then what i actually get.


2nd thing...With the new specializations...Do you have to wait till you level up 10 lvls before you can use em..like pioneer....at level 10 you can use the ability that gives u 20% more xp..just wondering if its like this for all of em(im assuming yes?)

[absurdlyobfuscated]

This spreadsheet has a list of all the commendations and their respective requirements for each level. You could use its info to fill in the gaps in your list. Nice work, BTW.

Yeah quality workmanship Clueless, so so glad regicide & flood have no armory unlocks. Because I just can't seem to get into either. The kills seem to have really shot down in flood its more like hide'n'seek now. Solo regicide is kinda pointless I do like team regicide its a pretty good mobile kill & protect variant.

Needs to be stickied! As well as http://www.xbox360achievements.org/f...d.php?t=402943

How have they not been stickied yet?

Needs to be updated... I would've expected that unlocks would be completed at this point. There are still several bits missing. Most significantly emblems. Which I know are rewarded for perfection, covenant slayer, forerunner slayer, etc.

TC, if you don't have time, or have given up, let me know. I'll gladly take over and get this thing finished up.

[JackAzzMcTittles]

that plasma pistol commendation... FML

[II HellSpawn II]

Anyone have any tips for Pulse Grenade kills?

So far I have found that punching then grenading seems to work the best...

[KITTY CAT ALERT]

anyone would like to boost these.

[C16]

^ He's already finished his, but I'm looking for someone that would like to regularly boost for commendations, preferably someone with a mic and 4 controllers. I've got a mic and 4 controllers as well.
