  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] chubbz So what you're saying is that it's possible that the similarities between the game difficulties and the titles is coincidental? [/quote] No, I was just answering the other guys question. "What does Heroic refer to?" If anything, it possibly refers to the level of difficulties associated with the games. I'm not saying that the difficulty of the game is associated with the difficulty of the title, even though it does make sense. [Edited on 09.02.2012 11:51 AM PDT]

  • When you post 200 times a day for a week, then stop and go down to 5-10 posts, the system may take it as spam and not give you a title you may otherwise qualify for. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] im am b0red Reallly thought I would have that Heroic by now...[/quote]

What does Heroic refer to anyway?[/quote] Have you ever played any of the Halo games?[/quote][/quote] There's no meaning behind it other than it being the name of a difficulty in the games. Heroic is the lower tier of difficulty, harder than Normal but not as hard as Legendary. Same with the titles, Heroics have been here a little longer than regular members but not as long as Legendaries or Mythics.
