Wait.... so i can keep updagrading and it will add more little power things??? that would be awesome!

My longest game lasted for 54 minutes because after capturing all 4 bases, I had to HUNT the last remaining Grunt squad.

Scarabs need 3 energy things, 3000 resources, and 20 population.

Also, 4 MAC Blasts seem to kill them, and units such as the UNSC Vulture and other air units do a little more damage then foot troops.

I can take them down with enough ODSTs, make a circle around them, and then attack from the front, while they take out the ODSTs around them you can hit them with your vehicles before they can turn. Plus ODSTs with the rockets can hurt them, pretty bad too.

Really? Mine just bounced off it seemed....

But honestly, I feel like today is Feb. 7th, not the 11th. Now who wants to build a time machine to go into the future, get the game, and warp back here?

I almost destroyed a Scarab with a group of five ODSTs because the Scarab got caught on scenery.lol. But reinforcements came just in time to keep the Scarab from curtailing for good.

Play Covenant vs. Covenant. You have to build resources fast and get units out quick and also establish a temple, otherwise Regret and his cronies of Wraiths, Honor Guards, and Hunters will kick your ass at the beginning.lol. I thought it was too easy to defeat them on Normal though. I actually waited the battle out for quite sometime so it didn't end fast. Heroic is by far the most fun in Campaign though, unless keeping Forge alive is your priority.lol. You can also almost max out all of your abilities and resources in the demo campaign alone. I never got the ODSTs nor Spartans though.

I don't know what game you played Hunter, but either you suck at RTS or you just don't see a good console RTS when you see one. The commands and controls are SO easy to get used to and getting resources is convenient and easy. You can't simply whore units to win; you HAVE to upgrade and use the appropriate ones. If all you do is send out Hunters and non-anti air units, you'll get canned quickly. I also advise that you don't play on easy to see how fun the game is. The true fun is found in Heroic of both Campaign and Skirmish modes. If you don't use your head and figure out how to play the game, then of course you'll think it sucks. But saying the game sucks generally is too bold of a statement. Stop saying crappy comments.

ODST's are Spartans arent available in the campaign.

I lol when people like you call that specific area of the coding "Graphics" Lol..

Also, you must have watched a modded sims game then, if that's what it looks like :l Because the game renders (4 minute clip) Looks smexy. Almost good enough for a animated movie (Like transformers).

Im just glad the cinematics are pre recorded :P

D:<<< I upgraded everything already and still have like 7-8000 dollars left xD.


One question if you try to buy lets say a warthog or a elephant theres the 3 little icons the money icon the lightning bolt icon and the little other icon. What is the "little other icon" that looks like a person? What does it mean?

Its your population.

Like a scorpion is worth 3 of the "people"

Its the max units you can have in your army.

Like for the covenant, the max is 50, so if you build 2 scarabs, thats 40 used up already. Since each scarab is 20 units. So you would have 10 units left to use.
