In the original game, players must achieve the par score individually, even when playing [[Cooperative play|cooperatively]]; in ''The Master Chief Collection'' cooperative players share a single score, potentially making the achievement much easier. | In the original game, players must achieve the par score individually, even when playing [[Cooperative play|cooperatively]]; in ''The Master Chief Collection'' cooperative players share a single score, potentially making the achievement much easier. | ||
The name Orpheus is most likely a reference to the [[List of references to Greek mythology in the Halo series|Greek myth]] of Orpheus, a man who entered the underworld to rescue his wife, just as [[John-117|Master Chief]] entered the "underworld" of the [[Flood]]-infested [[High Charity]] to rescue [[Cortana]]. | |||

Also, try to get as many [[List of Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST medals|medals]] as you can -- for example, grenade sticks or headshots. Headshots can be obtained by firing a headshot-capable [[weapon]], such as the Battle Rifle, at the feeder tendrils on a [[Flood combat form]]'s chest; this kills the [[Pod infector]] controlling the body. | |||
Note: When trying to get the campaign scoring achievements for any level containing the Flood, kill as many Combat Forms as possible with weapons that do not destroy the Combat Form's body. Once the area is clear, back up and let the Pod infectors resurrect the fallen Flood. Kill all the Combat Forms again to gain more points. If no Pod infectors remain and there are [[Flood blister|blister-like sacs]] on the wall near you, pop them by shooting or [[melee]]ing them to release a small amount of infectors. | Note: When trying to get the campaign scoring achievements for any level containing the Flood, kill as many Combat Forms as possible with weapons that do not destroy the Combat Form's body.
