You know that first cutscene where the Chief falls from the sky right?

That's actually considered a mission...

For real. Watch it on legendary even.

Yep. That's the one.

My friend had the same problem, so I knew exactly what the OP was talking about.

Well he also said the one for beating the game, which means he didn't get all the missions completed on heroic. I played through all of heroic with a friend, but since we joined the lobby and it was on Sierra 117, instead of Arrival, that's part of his problem. Another part could just be a bug as you are insinuating from the last mission.

I have a different problem. I picked up the skull on the first stage but it didn't unlock the achievement. I have tried picking it up again on different difficulties, but still no luck. I have the skull and can turn it on and play through a level with it, but it doesn't show on my gamer score. Is there something I'm missing?

You are missing nothing. That's a silver skull, meaning that it's just for fun and won't merit you an achievement.

I'm sure this has been metioned before, but does anyone know why I would not be able to pick any skulls up? I can always find them and see them, but I just walk over them, there doesn't seem to be a way to pick them up.....

You have to go through and complete any mission you think you might not have completed the whole way through from start to finish without starting a new chapter, it worked for me :)

I don't think those plain view skulls count. I wondered the same thing. In fact I'm sure they are not the skulls we are talking about for achievements. Try gamefaqs or something.
