    Finally learning to play Halo better but explain something to me

    I played for a few hours last night on single player, and passed checkpoint after checkpoint after finally realizing how to get more ammo after running out LOL... I'm a first timer.

    Then I get to a stage where I'm an alien fighting other aliens. I'm like Whaaaa? When did this become part of the game. I went from being masterchief to some arbitor in a lab with infected zombie creatures, passed that, cut some cables, got out of the building on some flying machine, then the cutscene takes me right back to where I left, and I couldnt figure out what to do...

    Why is this so weird and what am I supposed to do at that point.

    I also went online for the 1st time after that and played with 16 people trying to get the flag and protect it before the time ran out. First thing I did was shoot at my teammate when he brought the flag to a compound not knowing , but realized I should have been shooting at the other team... lol

    First t imer folks. Played a few more games before I shut it down because it was pretty late, but I want to play when you guys here are all on. I think it'll be a blast...er hopefully..

    You are learning the the other side of the story - the aliens. The prologue should have set that up - you are the alien that was tortured.

    I think I was in that CTF game....

        I was there with you guys. Lot's of fun hope to do it again.

        BTW does anyone else not like playing the Aliens? I just can't get as into it as I do when MasterChief.

            I like all the different weapons they have. And I love that energy sword.

            If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                I am not all that far in the Arbitar story line. But i have enjoyed playing as them. Gives you context on the "bad" guy side of the story. Interesting twist.

                I just have problems figuring out who to kill!

                    Yeah, I'm definitely more into it as MC... and plus the levels seem a little harder when you play as the Arbitor.
