How to unlock the Assault on the Control Room achievement in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary - Definitive Guide
Story related achievement for completing the 5th level, Assault on the Control Room. Skulls do not affect achievements so feel free to make this as easy or hard on yourself as you want.
If you are looking to complete this level as soon as possible there are a few points during the level where you can perform shortcuts. The first is a bit difficult but makes the level insanely quick and easy. The 2nd is a bit easier but requires good aim with a rocket launcher. The 3rd is probably what most know and I won't explain in depth, but is the part where you can steal a banshee on an ice bridge. You have to take out the elites around it quickly in order to steal it.
I've included a link to some videos that give a visual guide on how to complete this level quickly using the 1st and 2nd method since they are not as easy or known as well. All credit goes to the users who uploaded their videos to youtube, I did not make these. These were possible on the original Halo 10 years ago and are still possible in Anniversary.
During this level you can earn the following achievements
Also, if you have been getting all skulls and terminals up to this point you should unlock the following achievements:

This freakin mission is so god damn long and it's the same stuff over and over again. God this should be worth 100G for how long this mission is.

@A Phizzle, ten years later, I agree, this level is so repetitive. 🥲
