So, in the first round I did try to get us into Glacier. Of the 4 of us, one quit when we entered Courtyard. Hate those fucks. C'mon, waste 10 minutes blowing up stuff in Arcadefight and just enjoy the credits, specially when you are nowhere near Inheritor.
So, a few moments into the game a second person quit, either because he died or glitched or was an ass, I don't know. Don't care. I was hoping to wind up alone in a server and that is what I got. After the first few waves the last one quit on me as well and I was all alone.
It was not so hard then, I had everyone to myself, all I had to do was lob grenades and use the Fuel Rod Gun to make a mess. Died lots, popped up, kill kill kill.
Lets face it, unlimited ammo and lives and tons of credits available. Why did they bother to make us mortal? Whatever. I want my Inclement Weather armor effect and I want Inheritor so I can finally retire this game.

Damn, at first I thought this meant Butt Sex with Kat.

So THIS one was scaled to be less rewarding than today's Blastin' and Relaxin'?
Yeah, two rounds of Grunpocalypse cleared this. FUCK, I hate when the grunts kill themselves and each other. I got 117 (ha ha) kills on the first round.

Blastin' and Relaxin'

Reach: Daily Challenge. Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach - Complete.
2343 cR.




Do they really think putting "343" in the credit total is funny or cute?
Yeah, so this happened, as it does, while trying to get other shit done. Thank you for the credits, bringing me less than 0.01% closer to my goal.

Lots of fun playing some SWAT and Grifball.
I changed my tag from K 66 to iSUK just to make sure people know I have no delusions.

Reach: Daily Challenge. Kill 150 enemies on Beachhead on Heroic in Firefight Matchmaking - Completed.

OK, so today if I kill 100 grunts, enemies, other players, ANYTHING I get 3k. But if I do it in Firefight Matchmaking specifically on Beachhead AND I kill more creatures, I get even less credits. Really? Who thinks this shit up? It is nice that in order to get through this 150 you have to cross the 100 line and get the 3k from Light Fare, but that demeans the accomplishment of going through the trouble to do this on a specific map that has to be offered randomly. And it wastes a slot for another challenge. If the completion of one challenge would automatically qualify the completion of another, then that second challenge should be re-evaluated. I can't wait for Destiny. Maybe I need to start writing emails to Bungie to see if I can get on the consulting staff for something. Hell, I'd work for nothing more than gas money to the office and a constant supply of munchies while there.

This I got done fast. Firefight - Score attack 2X Score Attack on Beachhead. And in a moment, you will see why this is so fucked up. See next post.

Yeah, one match and it was done. Easy credits. Made a total of 9k for that one round, which is getting me closer to my goal.

I realized the other day that everyone in Reach would complete the armory at the same rank. I don't know how much I have earned to get my rank of Eclipse, or how much it cost for all the armory items I have so far, but the only thing I am missing is "Inclement Weather" armor effect which is 2 million cR. I am at 1,079,801 right now. I need more than 1 mil to reach the rank of Nova, I think.

But as with 4, which I ranked out WAY too quickly, I think that the armor and effects should take far more than the rank. We should reach top rank and still have stuff to buy.

Don't even get me started on how I think the daily challenges should be run.
Thanks for reading, those of you who do stop in here. See you on the battle field.
