I WILL NO LONGER ANSWER PMs! POST ALL QUESTIONS IN THIS THREAD!

[u][b]HALO 3 (Xbox 360 game) / ACHIEVEMENTS[/b][/u]
[quote]What happened at the end of Halo 3?[/quote]You need to watch the credits, because afterwards, there's another cutscene. I won't spoil it for you, but this cutscene is the [i]actual[/i] ending.
[quote]I wanna make some Machinima (or movies with friends), how do I put my weapon down so I can talk/film?[/quote]It only works locally or in system link - it will NOT work over Live.
LB + RB + A + ↓ D-Pad + ← Analog Click
[quote]Yay! I beat Halo 3![/quote]That's great, please post this news in [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=13193442] this thread[/url], rather than create a new topic.
[quote]Why can't I create a second profile in Halo 3?[/quote]You have to create a separate profile on your Xbox 360. Then you can create a separate character on that account. You can then enter LIVE with your current gamertag.
[quote]Why did I not get an achievement for this certain level?[/quote]You must complete the entire mission. You have to start at your last checkpoint if you saved and quit. You can't start at rally points.
[quote]How do I get this certain armor? What are the Achievements for Halo 3? Where can I find the skulls?[/quote][url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=13113493&postRepeater1-p=1]Click Here.[/url]
[quote]What’s with the diorama ad? Why isn't the huge battle in halo 3? [/quote]A question that really, only Bungie can answer. I believe that it’s there to show that humanity is really struggling to fight, and it’s really easy to lose hope. Perhaps this happened after a cutscene, but before a level. This showed that the Halo story [I]does[/I] have emotion. Also, I have heard that the people making the shorts had no idea what the plot for Halo 3 was.
[quote]Is it possible to play campaign co-operatively over xbox live without xbox live Gold membership?[/quote]No, it’s not possible. You HAVE to have a GOLD membership in order to play online, whether it be Co-op or Multiplayer.
[quote] So about the ending, will there be a Halo 4?[/quote]Only Bungie can truly answer that question. However, it’s been speculated that the end of Halo 3 is the beginning of Marathon (one of Bungie’s older games). I doubt there will be Halo 4 though.
[quote]Does anyone know when Halo 3 for Windows will be released?[/quote]Considering the fact that Halo 3 was [i]just[/i] released for the 360, I doubt it'll be released for Windows anytime soon. Like Halo PC and Halo 2 Vista, this will probably be out in 3 years or so.
[quote]To unlock the Legendary Achievement, do I have to do it solo or can I unlock it via co-op?[/quote]You can do it either solo or co-op.
[quote]How do I activate campaign scoring?[/quote]When your in the campaign lobby, press 'X' to Edit Campaign options. Above the skulls, there's an option to turn on campaign scoring for yourself, or a team.
[quote]Why do I get: Cannot Read Disc problem? My game freeze? My sound disappear ? Why can i play other games but not halo3?[/quote]Bungie is aware of reports that some people have received a "Disc Unreadable" error or similar issue while trying to play Halo 3. Bungie is working with the Xbox team to investigate the potential causes of this issue. Please visit the Microsoft Support Site and follow the listed instructions to see if this resolves the error message. For additional information or customer support, please call 1-800-4MY-XBOX.
[quote]What happened with the Elite, Hunter, and Grunt alliance?[/quote]There were only a select few that joined. I believe they were all killed. Bungie did say that the Grunts are with the Zovenant again, but they didn't offer an explanation.
[quote]Why are they calling Master Chief Sierra 117 in the first two levels?[/quote]Because he's [u]S[/u]partan 117. You don't name things over a radio in the military. Sierra is the letter 'S.'
[quote]Why is there an extra skull on the level 'Cortana'?[/quote]I think Bungie forgot to about that one...
[quote]How do I get the Marathon Man achievement?[/quote]You have to access the 7 terminals. Make sure to stay inside the terminal until it turns red, and a message appears. If you look at my third post, there's more information.
[quote]What exactly was/is the ark?[/quote][url=http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/The_Ark]Click here.[/url]
[quote]Why does it say 'Failed to load map/level'?[/quote]Is your disc scratched? If it is, return it and get a new one. Try playing other games on your 360 and see if they work correctly. If they don't, you're Xbox has a problem. Call 1-800-4-MY-XBOX for help.
[quote]What happened to the Spectre?![/quote]Bungie didn't include in Halo 3. I'm not sure about the reasoning, but I believe they didn't like how it handled in Halo 2, and it wasn't working right In Halo 3, so they scrapped it and came up with the Brute Prowler. Also, it is an Elite vehicle and seeing as how you are no longer fighting the Elites Bungie scrapped it.
[quote]What is 'equipment?'[/quote]Bubble shield, trip mine, power drainer, etc.
[quote]How do i claim skulls?[/quote]Start at the beginning of the level, and press 'RB' to pick it up.
[quote]How is it that the amour on MC's hands changed?[/quote]Perhaps it was an armor permutations that Bungie didn't put in. Who knows? Only Bungie.
[quote]What's the Meta-game?[/quote]Campaign Scoring.
[quote]How come the AA Wraith or TT Warthog isn’t in Multiplayer?[/quote]There's no point for them being in multiplayer, like the Pelicans.
[quote]Why does it say that January 1st, 1753 is when I got an achievement?[/quote]Because you got it while you were offline.
[quote]When you find a skull on a campaign mission, must you complete the mission to receive credit for it, or can you quit as soon as you get the achievement?[/quote]I don't believe so. You have to start at the beginning of the level though.
[quote]How do I activate the skulls for Campaign?[/quote]Go to the campaign lobby. Press 'X,' turn on whatever skull you want.
[quote]Is there any way to play halo 3 on the original xbox?[/QUOTE]No.
[quote]What is so important about the core of the ark? if you remember at the cartographer it was described as haveing a "comprihensive defence". what is it?
also, on the leveal cortana, when the gravemind says her "secret is revealed" what is that secret?[/quote]"The "core" of the Ark, as it was called by 343 Guilty Spark, appears to be some sort of planet or large moon that could serve as the Foundry mentioned in the aforementioned conversation between Guilty Spark and the Ark's embedded AI. Investigation from afar reveals that the inside of the core is not only hallow but clearly synthetic in nature. Stranger still is it appears to have suffered colossal damage, possibly sustained during the Forerunner-Flood War, but this is merely speculation at this point." Source.
Probably the location of Earth. Or how she figured out how to destroy High Charity.
[quote]Are the flood all dead or alive?[/quote]Presumably they are dead, though whether there are more flood elsewhere remains to be seen. Gravemind and a large proportion of the Flood were on the Halo ring, and that got destroyed.
[quote]I have one simple question, can I unlock armor even though I dont have xbox live?[/quote]Yes, bot only certain ones.
[quote]What happened to the customizable controls? I thought Bungie told us that they would be in Halo 3.[/quote]They got cut.
[quote]Do you have the skulls all the way through the whole level or can you drop them?[/quote]You can drop them.
[quote]my last 2 achievements (score 15000+ points on the eight and final mission) wont unlock. I have beaten both of em multiple times on Co-OP scoring over 20000 points every time...whats wrong?[/quote]They need to be FFA, not Team Scoring.
[quote]I finished the game on legendary, however, I did not get the achievement for it. What do I do!?[/quote]Okay, go back and watch Arrival...and make sure to not touch ANYTHING. After that, save and quit. Then play the last level again.
[quote]Why is there so many Pagan references in this game?[/quote]Bungie takes things from many religions.
[quote]Why can u get in AA Wraiths even though Bungie said u cant?[/quote]Because they didn't want you to. But due to a slight bug, or just a plain miss, you can.
[quote]Can you unlock armor perm while playing Co-op?[/quote]Yes.
[quote]i created an xbox live account for the first time and thought it would just enable my profile that i had been using before i got live, but instead i have my profile and the xbox live profile both separate. so i have a new profile that is live enabled but none of my stuff and a normal profile without live and all my achievements[/quote]For your normal profile, just sign into that. Since it doesn't have a Live account attached to it, you won't be connected to Xbox Live. From there, just press 'Connect to Xbox Live,' then sign in with your regular Gamertag. You'll still have your achievements.
[quote]I'm a Lieutenant. I never received my "Graduate achievement" though. Can this be fixed?[/quote]Bungie is currently trying to fix many glitches. This could be one of them. We don't know what the exact cause of this is though. There is no definite answer on this bug.
[quote]What happened to Medicant Bias? Was it destroyed in Halo 3.[/quote]
It appears that since Mendicant Bias was inside the Ark and trying to communicate through the terminals, he must have been destroyed when the Ark was.
