>tfw I still don't understand why people can't just post without images for 100 or so posts
So I'm starting to get into the lore a bit here. The pastebin has a shit load of dead links everywhere (including the Book and Comic link). Anyone got a working link?
>>147982532
150 posts in a Halo thread without images is a bit much. And any less and we hit the limit, you might as well make a new thread anyways.
But yeah, getting real tired of this guy making threads before they're needed.
>>147982665
I'm happy somebody at least cares enough to make them, he just needs to be patient

My internet wasout all day because my fucking idiot landlord came to my place when I wasn't come and cut some wires he thought were from an old sattelite dish or something (that I don't even have)

It's easier to draw a crowd on Fridays, might leave Saturdays for MCC customs depending on how Red feels about it.

i think their point and the two posts linked inside kinda go with what im saying.
the spartans are strong but even with all their arguments they are on par with elites.
but they are very good at fighting dirty or simply doing stuff Elites wouldnt imagine.
halo ring about to activate, ok, lets blow it up with the ship we rode in on.
enemies put a nuke on your ship, send it back.
trapped on a ship entering the atmosphere, jump out.
they take your planet, turn on the biggest nuke you can find. (i forget the name of it)
you enemies have political problems, make them your friends.
>.> has anyone watched Stargate Sg1... if at first you dont succeed, pt c4 all over it and see if that fixes your problem.
if youre on a moon and need an air strike.. push some rocks in the path of the moons orbit with the assistance of an ai.
if you find an enemy weapon, Use it and learn to use it. Send some to nerds to make more.
Adapt their shield tech for your own purposes
the covenant slowly got outplayed.
>>147986809
I always thought that they held food in place with their front teeth + mandibles, and they had an octopus beak or 2nd xenomorph mouth that took bites of the trapped morsel.
frees up both hands that way, and it matches up with how the elite's teeth mandibles are meant for stabbing and holding (they look like raptor teeth), not shredding
>>147987018
Elites also have a whole "Muh honor" thing that works against them because they refuse to fight certain ways
>>147987018
I think it's worth noting that they didn't really get outplayed in space. people like Keyes were uncommon, the Covies weren't exactly tactical slouches when it came to naval battles. The UNSC scraped most of it's space victories together by drowning the covie ships in burnt hull fragments like soviet v german airforce battles
I think that they just let their ground combat tactics fall to the wayside -- they didn't take it seriously because of how long they had unquestioned orbital superiority. Why bother, after all?
>>147987263
Their naval tactics kinda failed them as soon as a ship was infiltrated, letting Spartan strike teams take down even the largest of vessels
>>147987439
>>147987439
again, though, that's a problem with their infantry tactics (how to go mano a mano with Spartans without vehicles)
>strike teams of SIIs are loose aboard your ship and are coming to fuck your xeno asses without lube

werent there situations in Cole Protocol that had Grey team fight a bunch of enemies, and instead of fighting on their terms, gray team c4'ed a wall venting the atmosphere, sending their enemies into space.

>>147988923
maybe hunters are really good at removing electrons from stable/dense elements. kinda like our ATP cycle thingy. might be why they are sluggish, extracting energy is slow and time consuming. 24/7 ITIS <- google that. Armor doubling as a food source.

Humans being delusional as always, I see
>>147989020
in GoO covies used a tactic of partnering up their ships and when one's shielding would go down the other would rotate around and take the fire until the first ship's shields had gone back up
>>147989440
Here's the issue
To make a body out of squishy organic material, you need to input organic material.

Not the same anon, but the Campaign in 5 was fun for one play-through. It's not like 4 where it wasn't even fun the first time through.
>>147995630
>>147995969
The levels are fine, the story is just ass
I'm gonna ask here due to no xbox general. My xbone controller's left analog is starting to tilt up, any solutions? Google just says replace. Is the elite controller worth the money?
>>147996315
Depends on how many bells and whistles you want
>>147995630
>>147995969
They are large,open and have many different paths you can take through the areas. Had some pretty nice vehicle segements toom.
>>147995630
The one major flaw is the repeated Warden fights.
Otherwise, 5's campaign is pretty good gameplay-wise.
>>147997329
If it were only two Wardens it would've been fine
>>147997824
That fucking crazy mythic Warden fight on Sanctum where there's two of him floating in the air blasting the fuck out of everyone and you have to destroy the two cores to hit him would have been a pretty awesome campaign fight.
>>147998482
There's a lot of wasted potential
There are people in this thread defending 5's campaign
Call it my Kryptonite but that fucking triggers me.
>>147998719
I still think Reach is the worst Halo ever, and it triggers the fuck out of me when we go all "Zelda cycle" and start calling it good.
Fuck you people I hated it when it came out and I hate it now.
>>147998719
>Warden fights
>retarded ally Spartan/squad AI
Aside from those two things, what other gameplay-related criticisms of 5 do you have?
People here aren't really praising it, just saying it's not the worst in the series.
>>147998719
Not 5's story
The levels themselves are decent. They're quite long and very open.
Unlike 4 which was linear garbage
>>147998797

4 is worse than reach

Goodnight /hg/.
>>147998797
I disagree with you but there's things about reach, faults and failings, that I could see leading to that opinion, so I'm fine with it.
But Halo 5's campaign is trash. Fucking trash.
>>147999523
>Not 5's story

Kill yourself.
They're tiny and filled with the worst AI the series has had.

I'll tell you if you can help me get this song out of my head. I need to listen to it but I don't know any of the words, it's kind of hard to understand because of the way he talks.
I'm pretty sure sure it's an 80s song.
It starts out I think on a keyboard... I think, then the main chorus follows the same tune:
Duh-Duh-Duh-Duh(down)-Duh(up)-Duh(down)-Duh(up)
Duh(higher)-Duh(Down)-Duh
Duh(higher)-Duh(Down)-Duh
>>148006236
>hummed out the Duh
I FUCKING KNOW WHAT SONG THAT IS AND I CAN'T THINK OF THE TITLE NOW FUUUUUUUCK
>>148004728
If anything they're bigger than 4, reach, and half of 2's
>>148006335
5 has 15 levels. Outside of "Dawn" all the Halo 4 levels are larger.
>>148006335
Nigga you high
>>148006335
Well that's just plain wrong.
>>148006405
4's levels are tiny ass enclosed hallways/canyons that just go in a line
5 has those crazy multi-layer caverns and temples, the buildings on sunaion, the inside of argent dawn, the mining facility and glassed hills on meridian
4 had what, the pelican flying section and that ugly desert level that was bigger than average (bigger than average for halo 4 at least)
Both their stories are shit, I'm not talking about the stories here I'm talking about the levels

>>148009434
>>148010204

Don't mind me, just completely ignoring your shields and destroying your super carrier and the 2 ships behind you with a single shot.
>>147994128
You forgot the map design, its got the shittiest maps in the entire series.
>>148011974
Yeah, sadly most of the maps are just UNSC stations with bland white walls built entirely out of 90° angles
I mean they have different skyboxes that are decent but fuck would it kill them to have some variety within the map itself
EGGHEADS
>>148012564
They're relying on the forge community to make maps for them. They didn't even outsource map design this time for that reason.
>tfw no more H2A maps after Relic
>no remake of Waterworks or Terminal
>have to deal with 24/7 lockout, wizard, sanctuary, blood gulch
H2A was the sole reason I bought the MCC, and all I got was the same fucking maps that are remade in later games or in forge.
>>148013673
Forget about new h2a maps, MCC is still fucking glitchy and broken and they haven't said a single word about it
Thanks for taking my money and giving me a broken game in return, fuckers. Really feels good knowing I can't trust them as a customer
Whatever happened to that Russian Halo game that got reverse engineered into a PC version of Halo 3? Haven't heard about it in a while.

>implying that those stations are common throughout the UNSC
>implying that it's a smart idea to bank on having one of those stations around to save you
>implying that those stations can't be destroyed by acts of sabotage anyway
Remind me again why ODSTs are meant to be some kind of super-stealthy assassination force?
>see on radar that a ship appears in orbit
>it's not one of ours
>notify commander
>guards outside start yelling
>rush outside and see dozens of HUGE meteors hurtling towards the ground
>that's odd, there aren't any major meteor showers scheduled for this time of year
>and it's also during the day
When you think about how bright the average meteor is, relative to how tiny it is (pebble sized), a squad of ODSTs dropping would look like the god damn 2012 Russian Meteor. The whole continent would see them coming! Stealth recon my ass!
>>148017819
Only way a station can be sabotaged is by destroying/disabling its planet-side generator. Or by boarding it to plant a bomb, provided the Marines/ODST's on board don't kill all boarding parties.
>>148018071
I'm not a lorefag but I'm guessing they must have other methods of getting into combat other than crash landing. I know it's goes against there name but in more stealth missions it would make more sense.
>>148018279
It's a method with a proven successful track record, unless you've got a SII hanging around (unlikely)
>>148018071
They're not. Literally just marines trained to get to the battlefield as quickly as possible. The team from Halo 3 ODST was on a stealth mission though.
>>148018071
Drop pods aren't going as fast as a meteor.
>>148018426
They're going as fast as gravity can carry them
This might be an odd question, but has anyone here ever played the game Strike Vector? It was one of those FOTM indie games, it's pretty dead now, but it was fun
It looked like this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o_DzMXg3_n4
I promise that this will be relevant to Halo

Which is much slower than meteor.

Looks fun.

I bring it up because Strike Vector shows how absurdly hard it is to hit people with "dead" projectiles. The reason why everyone quit the game is because people got tired of not being able to hit other players. There were simply too many degrees of freedom to dodge dumb bullets.
Wouldn't this also apply for naval battles? If the UNSC's MAC guns fire rounds at 30 km/s, if the Covie ships are 60, 90, 120, etc. km away, they've got multiple whole seconds to move or rotate in literally any direction to dodge the shot. I can tell you how easy that shit is. Good fucking luck hitting anyone like that.
Even the Orbital Defense Platforms only fire at 12,000 km/s. If the Covie ships were parked by the Moon, which is 250,000 km away, they could snipe them with those fancy particle accelerators and still have almost TWENTY (20) seconds to move out of the way of any return fire.
Space is fucking big, and you're gonna need some kind of homing projectile to hit fucking anything from any range beyond "point blank knife fight" range.

Wew

A couple seconds isn't very long to move a large ship with lots of inertia.

He was asserting his dominance.
>enemy ai, even minor ones can hijack you
>you cant even hijack non bosses
what the fuck
>>148023618
It's a dumb design decision to make it harder
>>148023068
that's not exactly a hard problem to solve. you can always put a bigger engine on for more acceleration.
>>148023248
If they hijack the gunner they just t-pose
>>147998719
Halo 3 has the worst campaign and the weakest gameplay in the entire series

You don't deserve to drive vehicle unless you use req cards.

how is this still here
>>148024817
I had a Promethean jump onto my Scorpion and beat it to death, only got to fire one shot at the boss.
The a.i can't even properly use all the vehicles they can steal.
>>148001954
>>148004728
>>148009372
you are all wrong.
Halo 5 has large open spaces and set pieces that make the levels feel like real battles.
So far the only game thats been able to capture that atmosphere is Reach, and thats only because of the backgrounds to levels.
>>148025783
I dunno, CE did a pretty good job of it
>>148026505
In CE its just you and like 5 marines
and whenever theres an enemy civil war, CE suffers from major 'gang up on the human' syndrome, in that the Flood and Covenant will fire at you from a distance rather than attack each other, especially on Two Betrayals and Keyes
In Halo 5 you've got Promethean/Covenant war, you've got the miners on Meridian and the Swords of Sanghelios
Battle of Sunaion in particular feels like a real war
>>148026975
If they keep the scale and make a better story next time it'll be great
>>148025337
That's why you should always use the Wraith
>>148027480
Agreed.
>>148027531
343 has been getting better and taking feedback, I've got high hopes for 6
>>148028837
Just remove Bonnie Ross entirely
Focus on Master Cheif rather than OC donut steal characters
Add back in full armor customization
And there you go, a good Halo game
>>148029171
Cheifs voice actor wants to retire, halo 6 will most likely be the last game with him as the main character.
>>148029297
Exactly
End it on a big note for him
Send him out with a bang so to speak
>>148029171
>Focus on Master Cheif rather than OC donut steal characters
I like the idea of SIVs, but I hate how they were executed. The idea that the UNSC improves the Spartan-making process and expands it's recruiting demographics is logical and is what you would expect to see happen. But they fucked it all up anyway
>>148029551
I have no idea what you could possibly be talking about.
damn, people, are you seriously buying some shitty sugar drink because it has Halo logo on it?
>normies
>My depression intensifies
reminder to everyone that this was the original concept for apex-7, much much larger and able to play host to multiple modes, not just warzone. also multiple classic map environments built into it a-la forge world style
>>147984238
Dirty Goebie scum
>>148029851
I feel bad for Locke. His only sin is being bland, but everyone hates him by association because the rest of his team are retards (except Buck)
They didn't even try to characterize him in his movie or the game its really sad.

>>148030867
>>148031238
whoops
>>148031238
Man, I remember just chuckling to myself when the Elite was just strolling about in the Mall and no one seemed to be bothered by the fact that there was an 8 ft tall alien that was part of the Covenant.
>>148031284
probably labeled cold storage to inform the visual direction or for the very minute changes in the playspace.
note how zanzibar isn't last resort and longest isn't elongation. there's a first-appearance map each from 1, 2, and 3, with cold storage as the extra
>>148031238

HOW THE FUCK DO YOU FUCK UP A DESIGN SO HARD JESUS CHRIST

t. nogunz europoor thats never seen a firearm in his life
>>148032212
I know right? Its proportions are all fucked up compared to its predecessor. It's surreal comparing the slim legged Halo Reach's Elite to Halo 4/5's.
>>148032416
H2A has the best elite designs
prove me wrong you actually can't
>>148032257
They're not that big.
>>148031238
is that even worth watching?
>>148032416
>>148032416
what's the point of having teeth on the mandibles that face inwards, if they'd just get stopped by the front teeth hanging down from it's jaw?
>>148033454
yeah, how does he eat? I mean, food would just fall out as he has no lower jaw.
>your ass, my size-24 hoof
>hoof
>>148033454
>>148033716
Ask the one who designed the Elites in the first place. The design is pretty idiotic when it comes to feeding, I mean, they can't chew since the food will just fall downwards.
>>148033716
>mandibles hold food in place
>retractable octopus mouth takes bites
>>148033952
they have hooves, look closely
>>148032416
>>148031963
>>148033970
that's not that bad. the teeth are in the front, and the mandible grip from the sides. There's overlap, but it's not egregious like in >>148032416
Hell, in >>148031963, the elite would be stabbing himself in the cheeks with his upper mandible teeth every time he moved
>>148030205
I guess hingeheads stick together, huh?
>>148033970
Entirely possible that their digestive system is powerful enough to handle chunks of food ripped off by the mandibles but not actually chewed.
>>148033952
>your ass, my size-24 hoof
>elites have hooves
>horses have hooves
>elites are like horses
>a flying horse is called a Pegasus
>Pegasus is a launch map in Halo 5

>Orion was removed from matchmaking, resulting in only 20 maps
>UnknownKaiAndFriends has twenty letters
>Kai & Friends is 343 Industries
>>148035348
their mandibles aren't flexible like octopus tentacles, they've got too many bones, you can see them in the pic. they're not very good and bending and stretching to pass food directly into a gullet like a cephalopod
>>148035621
He's cracked the code, silence him!
>>148036023
Maybe elites only drink
The important question however, is how do theykiss
>>148036476
I like my theory >>148033991 but I have no way of proving that it's right, but whatever. It's the only explanation that makes sense.
>implying that enlightened species kiss
that shit is for dirty humans only
>>148036713
>>implying that enlightened species kiss
>that shit is for dirty humans only
Right, for kissing humans
>>148036980
>implying that Vale fucks elites
she just has a platonic interest in their culture, like any proper researcher does
>>148036713
But anon, they can stillhold hands
>>148037232
Dude, she totally fucks elites.
Well, she doesn't fuck them, she takes off her armor and allows herself to be physically taken advantage of. It's her fantasy, that her, a trained Spartan that has killed hundreds of hingeheads, is not strong enough to stop a single normal elite from physically overpowering her and having his way with her.
And obviously the elite likes it because he's dominating a fucking spartan.
>>148037726
>implying that women fantasize about defeat
>"I saved your life today"
What?
You did?
He seemed fine by himself.
>>148037995
You've never met a woman before.
Do prophets have soldiers? is that a thing, or do all of them sit on their asses in administrative roles?
>>148038321
They're a pretty weak species overall, because of the whole "low grav planet" thing. They do fight, though, since they can clearly use weapons and guns. Just don't count on them for CQB.
>>148038143
his forces were getting overwhelmed and the SIVs saved his army, and his life in doing so
>>148029492

You sure? Plenty of women fantasize about getting dominated.
>>148038920
Women want to be dominated and controlled by Chad.
>>148038920
It's one of the more common ones, actually
