Got sick of this game a LOT faster than I thought I would. Probably sell it now while value is high and then buy it up again down the road when the price drops.

My new problem..... I'm going for the achievements in firefight (Score Attack, Firestarter, Blaze Of Glory, Heat In The Pipe, and Game, Set, Match). The first 4 require getting a much higher score then I have been able to attain. Is it just a matter of improving my score or is there a way to adjust the game settings to allow for higher point totals? The last one requires you to complete a firefight without dying on Legendary difficulty. Just playing a firefight online only allows Heroic to be played. Again, is this something that can be changed under the settings? Any help would be appreciated.

Even though I don't have the game I'm pretty sure you can set something up in the settings to change the length and/or types of covenant you fight to rack up the score. You can also make yourself invincible.

Go in to the file share thing and look for recommended Firefight modes, they have some that are custom tailored for getting over a million in like 10 minutes, plus you can get other 'cheevs like the Killionaire one.

i finally finished my legendary solo campaign 2 days ago!!!!!!
tbh, it really deals w/ having lots of patience and knowing what to do, when to do it, and how to do it. you really have to be on your toes most of the time.
and honestly, the only REALLY difficult levels are Long Night of Solace, and The Pillar of Autumn. otherwise, the others were kinda easy just have to be patient, take it slow, and abuse the rest of your Noble Six (theyll never die, so try to just make them move up n take out most of the people, thats what i did atleast)

Noble Six can take the abuse, but they shoot rubber bullets.

for just straight exp, id say lots of MP. invasion can give you a good bit, as can swat/team slayer in general (especially elite slayer) firefight gives a decent bit, and goes pretty fast, so as long as youre good you can get like 1000+ each time. i usually get from 600-1000, depends on what type of firefight it is and how many kills i get.
but if you just want lots of credits, to like get to lt colonel and get the achievement for buying something at that rank (since i think most lt colonel things are priced 50K or above) do LOTS of campaign. especially legendary, that gets you so many credits. n im sure turning skulls on gets you more. i think youll average 3K for each level on legendary if done solo (i believe thats what i was averaging, depends on the type of kills youre getting really) the only thing that sucks about campaign, is i dont think you get as much EXP per CR. so like you might gain 3k CR from one mission, but thats not necessarily 3K EXP. you dont get ranked very fast via campaign, but CR rack up nicely
idk bout the easiest/fastest way tho...thats just from my speculation so far, doing lots of challenges help too

Pretty much what Taco said. I would make a note that you start getting a lot less credits for campaign as there is a thing that once you reach silver on a campaign commendation the kills net you less cR. E.G. you get 4 cr per grunt killed, but once you get to silver for "cannon fodder" you get 2 cr. So campaign is great for a bit, but then you start getting a lot less.
Other than that, I agree with him, score attack (firefight by yourself online) is fantastic for points. I played a ton of team slayer, but Rumble pit should actually net you more points per match. Plus you don't get dinged on the cR received once you get silver commendations in MP or firefight. I guess its to prevent people from farming the crap out of campaign.
Plus those daily challenges do help a lot! Still haven't missed one!

The daily challenges have helped me a lot. Those and the accommodations. I just played 7 matches in rumble pit, winning 3 of them and ended up gaining about 8000cr. I am still 15000cr from captain though.
