My Halo 3

Starter Tips

Here are a few starter tips for those just getting into the fray. (also check out this xbox 360 forum -> halo 3 section for more tips)

Duck and cover - When you’re in the red, get behind something. Basic tactics again, and forget the shield. It’ll save your backside more often than not.

Eyes on the ammo - Always, I repeat, always keep an eye on how much ammo you’ve got. Nothing beats a good ‘ol click when you’ve got that perfect headshot lined up.

Headshots, headshots, headshots - Anybody worth their salt in a shooter knows this. Headshots hurt more, so use ‘em!

Save the Grunts for last - that means go for the leader, usually a Brute, so that the Grunts become demoralized.

Lost? - If you can’t seem to progress in a level, then back it up. Backtrack through the level and see what you’ve missed.

Burn your handgun ammo first - Although it’s lethal for a good, close range headshot the ammo for the handgun is scarce. Run through it and pitch it early.

Best guns? - For the majority of the game, the battle rifle and carbine are the best, though the SMG is pretty damned nice itself.

Don’t conserve grenades - Even though you only get a pair of each type, there are plenty to go around in most levels. If you think you need it, go for it.

Vehicles - The first major thing to keep in mind with vehicles is that you should drive. The AI sucks behind the wheel, big time.
