That would be an amazing community effort and would make bungie proud and do something special for Bungie.

200 Million left!

TIPS
This is mostly for people who like to speed things up:
-When you enter to the last part of the level and to the 2nd last Cortana part
(room what has 2 doors and it leads to the hangar) throw 1-2 grenades to the LEFT door way while going to the right
this way you might lucky and score a 2-3 kills.


When you enter to the the Point Bravo (last one out take out lights..or something along those lines)
at 2nd grunt turret,theres a small box/case of 4 frag grenades.
Spam those grenades to the enemies infront of you or take the nade`s with you.


When you enter to the part where you have to activate the bomb,be sure to have least 2 sticky nades.
When you enter this room,jump on top of the railings on roof(like you would be getting the skull,but not on the same pipe as skull)
now throw 2 plasmas to the brute next to the bomb(the brute with fuel rod).
This way you can easily avoid other brutes and grunts in the room,and bigger brute wont hit you so easily with fuel rod cannon


Always have a Battle Rifle!
With battle rifle,you can take out grunts,jackals and drones with 1 shot
Shotgun against brutes is extremely good,if you are playing on easy mode,you can pretty much just run to brutes
Shotgun and melee to kill them.
if you are facing higher rank brute,it might take 1 shotgun and blas and mayby 2 melees or even more
Brutes usually try to melee when you are close to them,so if you are trying to just shotgun melee them,be sure to step back because
brutes hit can give you a nice headache
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Remember everyone, Co-op is recommended for only the largest of levels like The Ark, and Covenant. Solo is advised for all levels. Crow's nest, Floodgate, and Cortana are especially great for one-man runs.

Here are some general tips (Sir Killalot, if you think these are useful, please edit them into the first post):

-The noob combo from Halo 2 makes a vengeful return in Halo 3 campaign. Brutes are often empty-minded when it comes to your position, so when you come across a pack unaware of you, pick up a plasma pistol from your previous manslaughter, and fire an overcharged shot at the highest ranking, or most dangerous brute you see. This includes gold armor, brute shot wielders, and especially Gold-armored Fuel-rod wielders.

-On flood, take time to hone in on your headshots. Or in this case, chest shots. The flood infects by burrowing into the chest, and overtaking the nervous system. If you can land even one BR round into the chest where the infection form nests, the body will fall instantly.

-Try not to destroy the flood bodies. If there are stray infection forms around, chances are they will find another body. This will allow you to earn more kills.

-Stay aggressive. Don't let up on your attacks as much. If you die, try to learn why, and next time, use it to your advantage.

-Stick those suckers! Every grenade that kills saves time, and ammo.

-Silver skulls make the game funnier, and in cases, easier. Activating the Grunt Birthday skull not only is great to see, it actually has enough force to detonate grenades on the ground.

-Catch! Use this skull if you have the tenacity to. It will supply you with all of the grenades you'll ever need, but will also throw more grenades at you than you'll want.

-Haste makes waste. Now obviously, we want you to keep the pace fast, but try to kill all of the Covenant in sight. This includes Phantoms. There is always a way to down phantoms. Take those first three phantoms that show up in Tsavo for example. If you have the Fuel rod, pump four rods into an engine, and it's going down. This is useful on those that drop off those chieftains.

-If you want to get the most kills,

DO NOT PLAY CO-OP!

Play single-player on Crows' Nest on Easy.

Once you do it enough and get faster at it, like me, you can easily get around 200-210 kills in <12mins

MadMan's daily numbers
The goal is to reach 7,000,000,000 by July 7th ... bungie day.
YES this is possible !

TODAY'S GOAL = 18,383,210

Daily kill counts
6/25 - 14,117,778
6/24 - 14,112,594
6/23 - 14,059,783
6/22 - 14,385,291

see todays kill count here.

A bunch of numbers
The idea is to get to 7,000,000,000 kills by july, 7th know as bungie day 7/7.
We started today with 6,779,401,476

Ok, so were going for 220,598,524 more kills by bungie day.
Bungie day is 12 days away.
That about 18,383,210 kills per day.

So were going to need alot of help. Ever little bit counts, this is a numbers game people and we are fighting an uphill battle. So do your part no matter how big or small.

Our goals!
Obviously our goal is 7,000,000,000 kills by July 7th.
Lets cut this in half so we can judge our progress.
June 29th is the half way mark.
By then were going to need about 6,866,875,500 kills to be on pace for our goal.
That means as a community were going to need 133,125,350 kills in seven days.
Then we need to repeat this task on the week leading up to bungie day if we plan on reaching our goal.

More numbers.
yesterday's total kill cout was 14,117,778
If this continues for the entire 12 days we will have 169,413,336 more kills on 7/7.
That will bring us to 6,948,841,812 kills by 7/7.
That is 51,158,188 kills short of 7 billion.


TIPS
Message all your friends tell them about this and ask them to do whatever they can even if its just one mission.
I suggest that people play solo. Private chat with a friend and start the same mission each playing solo. See who can finish first and get the best score to keep things interesting.

If you want people to play with say so here and leave your GT, also I will accept FR's if anyone wants to play.

GT= ix madxman xi

Thanks to Sir Killalot33,Warthief,penguin,and halo master zen.

So lets all HAVE FUN and Good luck everyone.

I just ran through a level and added 125 to mine. Will be back on tonight, every night, and July 4th weekend to do what I can to reach 7 b.
 
Just finished Crows Nest on Heroic
Waitin for my Service Record to update so I can see my final kill count

edit
189 kills!
 
A friend and I played through 4 levels yesterday and added over 1000 kills, not including vehicles (wasn't sure if those count or not), and I added another 200 or so this morning. Probably going to play through a few more levels myself tonight.

I'm happy to see that they're encouraging people to play the campaign. In my opinion, it's by far the best part of the game, and too often you'll take a look at someone's service record and see that they haven't even attempted the campaign. It's a shame, if you ask me.
 
Not sure if anything will come of it but it's worth the effort just to get back into the campaign and forget about matchmaking for a while. I'll be playing every night (at least a few levels or more) for at least an hour (or 3) just to see if 7 billion is reached. I won't be blamed for not helping. Good luck and keep up the killing!
 
I've been doing MY part :)

It's weird though.. none of my games from this past weekend are showing up. I can only guess they'll get added later?

UNSC Campaign Report
Enemies KIA 5,287
Friendlies Lost 1,301 <-- punks trying to steal my kills :)

Here's a great Stat site that HBO linked to:

http://wowunited.net/halo/

Oh.. and for the record? This isn't Bungie doing any of this.. this is all fan-driven. it's the fans showing their love/loyalty to Bungie.

I think it's a great idea, and they certainly need more folks to participate. Get enough folks, and this thing is in the bag.
 
Awesome, I would get on and show my support by slathering covenant but my account is locked because of non-payment :(
 
Holy Moley!... count me in! I'll set a goal to add at least 2000 kills with each of my gamertags :cool:

The H3 Campaign is seriously awesome and it's great the fans are doing somthign like this.


..... I feel like a hippie for some reason now lol.

Aw man, i don't have Halo 3 :mad: only Halo 1 PC. I highly doubt it, but is there anything i can do to help?

You could get your friends involved.. get them to do it.. possibly even going to their house and doing it too. I know they say that coop is a waste because you share the enemy kills, but it's better than those kills not happening at all.


Updated: To understand the "scope" of this thing.. If 11,000 people played through "Crows Nest Bravo Rally point", 10 times, and scored 200 kills each time.. it would reach the DAILY amount of kills required to get us on-track for the 7 billion, and take approximately a half hour's worth of play from each of them.

That level should only take like (I'm guessing) about 3-5 minutes, and is currently considered to be the best in terms of "kills per minute". Dedicate a half hour a day to it, and we'll get there.

Currently, assuming 11000 are involved.. they're already playing about 6 and a half games (Crows Nest Bravo) per day

The average kills per day (since June 24th, when the tracking started) is around the 14 million mark, we need to improve that by 6 million... WHICH is a LOT, until you consider that if there's 11000 gamers going for it.. they only need to do it about 3 and a half more games than they HAVE been doing.

Or.. they need about 3000 folks willing to join them in this crazy stunt and do it that often alongside them.

It's TOTALLY doable.. but you gotta' be willing to give up about a half hour per day for the next 7 days.

Like I said.. I'm doin' my part. are you? :)

Folks slacked out a little bit.. there was an 18,000,000 kill day on Friday, which is the best so far, but there have been a few 12,000,000 kill days (the 24th, 25th, and 29th), which brought down the average kills per day..

1/2 hour a day for 7 days is 2000 kills per day. or 140,000 kills total.

Another thing folks are doing is wearing the #7 emblem (or the 7th column emblem) for Bungie day. Bungie's caught wind of it, and Lukems reposted the idea here on their news feed:
http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=news&link=emblem7 ://http://www.bungie.net/News/content....p;link=emblem7

Didn't have much time yesterday, but here it goes:
UNSC Campaign Report
Enemies KIA 5,411
Friendlies Lost 1,346

Not much, maybe just under 200 kills. I'd been told you can get 200 on Crows Nest Bravo in like 3 minutes on single player, but that's gotta' be BS. I got like 78 kills on there, and it certainly takes more than 5 minutes to complete. I think I got more in there on Co-op.

Hmm.. I wonder if the friendlies killed should be added to the total kills? I'll bet we'd get a lot closer to 7 Billion that way.

lol friendly
 
So what do we get when we finish 7his off?
The satisfaction of knowing we got 7 billion kills
as a community? Or perhaps being 7he person to get THE
7 Billionth Kill for Bungie? Where is 7his leading to?
