21:30 It's nice to see Elites being nice to grunts, even if it's just a mourning prayer

24:30 Sgt. Johnson has additional dialogues if you move out of the way, BUT move back in front of the door just to troll him. When you move out he says, *_"Good now stay put!"_* then when you immediately move back in he says, *_"Yeaah that's reeeal funny! I'm still shootin!"_* 😂

"If you move this rock, the player will find 2 dead grunts, and 2 dead energy swords" R.I.P Energy swords

18:30 For Number 86, pretty sure Blur got this wrong when translating it into the pre rendered cutscene. They changed it to just a simple wire she holds on to

20:58 Correction regarding 98's Honour Guard Councilor. It's actually supposed to be a Zealot that spawns there, but due to it calling an Elite variant that doesn't exist on that map, it instead reverts to a backup Elite model with default white armour and randomised attachments (Helmets, Honour Guard trimmings, Halfjaws head with the missing mandibles, etc). Same thing is probably occurring with 108's Brute corpse.

Finally, the king uploaded.

Other things: 17:20 - thanks for pointing that out. I always wondered what the crashing structure was, as it's never mentioned in the game. 17:48 - and the tank the pelican is carrying WILL snipe you if you shoot at it. 25:15 - you can also wedge a wingless banshee into the control room and kill Tartarus super duper fast that way

It really hits me hard seeing Sangheili even crouching down and praying for little Unggoy to walk their path through the Great Journey. I bet that in lore, many Sangheili in the field during planetary assaults against Humans would do the same and say momentary prayers to their elite brethren and grunt allies while speaking in Sangheili as Sangheili was a universal language adopted by the Covenant. Both grunts and jackals speak it, but brutes were very against it.

10:30 " I have a bad feeling about this ".. In CE Johnson and a marine had the same convo before the flood attacked.

8:26 For number 38, Cool little fact it's Mendicant Bias talking in reverse he's basically telling the player about the past.

21:26 i NEVER knew about this, i always thought it was just the arbiter saying that but this actually makes the scene so much more sad omg

Nice to see a Halo 2 video, it is easily my favorite game ever

Halo 2 will always be my favorite campaign.

I knew about 70 of these, but that's because I've played this game for 17 years. I play on legendary mostly, but sometimes heroic, so I can see the differences. Still a great video and I'm glad to see another video about my favourite halo game.

02:50 Cortana must have played an audio clip of someone tapping on glass, because there aren't any marines standing directly next to you and cortana couldn't have done it herself because does have a physical form.

5:46 Actually, there is one extra Chapter Title. The first was for Easy/Normal and the second was for Legendary. However, Heroic gets it's own card called "Ladies Like Grinding Treads". 7:57 This also happens with Johnson's hat at the beginning of Cairo Station. 10:25 There is also unique dialogue for an Elite and Grunt here that were a reference to the Flood Juggernaut, thus the fitting chapter title. Elite: By the rings. What is that? Grunt: *Whimpers Elite: Quiet! It's moved on. Quickly, before it returns. Let's find the Heretic Leader and Finish him off! 20:04 While they are basically Honor Guard Ultras, these Elites have their own rank call the Lights of Sangheilos. 22:23 This happens with a lot of missions in H2, including with Chief.

Somewhere I have the book "The Art of Halo 2" that has a whole bunch of concept art and stuff that was going to be included in the game and removed before launch and it is like the coolest book I own.

15:02 I had no idea weapons were alive and could even die, treat them with respect people

117 things 343 did not include in halo infinite that was in previous halo games

17:18 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe if you manage to somehow get to these Marines before they're scripted to die, they'll register as enemies, the only time in the series a human AI is unavoidable done so, with any other marine requiring betrayal, the crazy marine in CE not registering as an actual enemy, and the corrupt cop in ODST requiring you to acquire all the data pad's before turning hostile

Missed a bit of dialogue from the big Regret hologram in Regret. If a marine, Chips Dubbo, is around to here it, he'll say "Oh man. He's so dead."

6:09 This also works on Delta Halo/Regret, Arbiter/Oracle, and Sacred Icon/Quarantine Zone. Basically any level you can get an energy sword that has you play the same character two levels in a row allows this glitch. It's super useful on Legendary. Note: If you're carrying another power weapon at the same time however the game will sometimes spawn you with different weapons so it's best to carry something more common as a secondary. This is to stop the player from starting any of the three possible levels overpowered, though Oracle will let you have an empty/infinite ammo sword and fuel rod gun. (of which there are plenty just before The Arbiter ends)

Lots of them are a MUST to complete it on legendary God, the original trilogy has so much soul and little details

0:36 “Master guns” is short for MGySgt (Master Gunnery Sergeant) in the Marine corps.

Did you know, when you boot up Halo 2 you can press the start button to play the game?

15:05 I always love finding me two dead energy swords

11:55 Grunts are already one of my favorite things in the Halo universe, and seeing one play with branches, toys, fire, and grenades was something I didn't know I needed to see.

The "Is that a weapon or a.. OH GO" line makes me crack up as well as cry, damn I miss Master Gunns

"Two sticks and a rock" is my 2nd favorite Johnson speech. Second only to "God's own anti-sonuvabitch-machine" from Halo CE

bro, Halo 2 was the first game i ever played. i was really young, around 4 years old according to my father and brother, it holds so much importance to me, and i really believe that it influenced me to who i am today solely from the campaign. alongside it's influence, it introduced me to FPS games, which is one of my favourite genres 14 years later-and to the world of video games overall such as MC, Skyrim, Mirror's Edge, and others that i still play to this day. glad you covered a video on my most beloved game!

11:35 if you time a jump just right after cutting the cables and jump right as the area you’re in separates you’ll drop significantly slower than that portion the facility. You will die, but i always thought it was cool.

Number 76 is also the only time you can kill Marines as The Arbiter

Considering I have 2000 hours in Halo 2 Anniversary's campaign alone, I had a lot of smiles during the video and had good throwbacks. My brother and I used to play Halo 2 on the OG Xbox and this video brought back a lot of good memories.

I know it's been mentioned, but when guns says "watch out you'll tear a tendon" that's a call back to The novel Fall of Reach when chief tore his Achilles tendon.

I’ve been looking forward to this.

To add onto 76, if you activate the Sputnik skull and grenade launch across the chasm, kill all the flood, any marines that remain alive will attack you

Also on delta halo when you have to activate the bridge odst’s will warn you about the wrath on the far side of the bridge, and if you don’t have odst’s and just marines the marines will warn you about the wraith, and if you have no allies at all cortana will warn you about the wraith

The main thing I learned from this video "shake it off marines!".

23:38 high ranking elite misses half his shots from 4 feet away

No scarab gun or you being able to hijack a banshee if you lure it through that one tunnel?

Again, just as with your Reach '117 Details' vid, the level of detail that I _still_ haven't seen in my runs, is both astounding and inspiring. I feel privileged to have played the game.

Another interesting one is if you land the Banshee on top of the Scarab on the last level, it will magnetize to the top and you can return back to it.

It's actually possible to save Sargeant Gunns, but just in Easy Difficulty because he has more health and the elites shots do less damage

Can you elaborate on the Cole Protocol reference of Regret carrying a plasma pistol? I'd like to know what the novel says about it

For 100. it feels nice and odd for an elite to show a grunt respect.

No one else gonna mention how the arbiter intro synced up with EBR saying "hello and welcome" haha

Plasma absorbs light. It just also emits light. But it will produce a shadow if you have a strong enough light. This can be seen with fire.

18:07 That's also true for some of the Carbines and Needlers on Sacred Icon! 😊

18, takes autopilot to a whole new level lol

57 as far as I am aware, it does this every time, its happened to me everytime I have played the mission

i always wondered what time was left on the covenant bomb but i could never find the answer i always assumed it was 5 but 7 makes sense not only lore wise but also because bungie and 7 and 7 and 7 and 7 and 7 and 7 and 7 did i forget to mention 7?

It’s the little stuff like the prayers to the fallen elites and grunts, the freeing of their fellow elite/hunter prisoners, and the different dialogues that makes halo 2 so cool to me despite its difficulty at times

For 68, the elite honor guards stop spawning after a while of killing, the grunts are endless

1:02 Sheer shock and worry can be seen in his face

Great video and I love how you used the classic Halo 2. Way more nostalgic that way

love these videos a lot! Happy you are still continuing the series

I thought I already knew everything about Halo 2 as I play that game religiously, but wow. I guess I missed out on at least 11 of those facts. interesting. Good job on teaching me something I didn't know.

15:31 good on you for letting this precious little guy live! Seconds later… Oh 😅

Another facts you missed: - All of the enforcers weapon modules can be destroyed separately (rocket launcher, needler thing, claws, shields) - you can skip the entire scarab scene + the fights in the last level and directly jump to the boss battle by flying toward the pillar of the building (does not work in anniversary) - if there are multiple enemy elites near a warthog, they will first man the turret and with some luck the second one will enter the driving seat. - On the mission "sacred icon", the grunt at the beginning shows you that you can open these access pistons by firing at them. This is extreeemly helpful at legendary, because you can open them while running toward them with the flood behind your tail. - there are ladders the player can use. For example near the tunnel entry on outskirts, just before the elite drop pots and the aggressive phantom, there is a building where you can climb a ladder to get to a marine and pick up a bonus rocket launcher + a lot of rocket ammunition - obviously the scarab gun - The phantoms transporting the wraiths on the bridge mission will drop none or all wraiths depending on the difficulty. (There is always one waiting in the tunnel) - On the mission "Delta halo" if you walk out of bounds and go to a different area, the prophet on the hologram will not spawn in, and there will just be a floating chair. - If you drive a wraith and boost in the back of a scorpion tank of your friend, the tank will start to spin and yeet away. It's pretty funny to annoy your friends like that :P - Covenant vehicles have a resistance to covenant weapons. For example the needler projectiles just bounce of of the front of the ghost, wraiths and other covenant vehicles. The same for the covenant sniper.

7:02 Young man I don't think you know what an insurrectionist is in Halo

Its impossible that the wounded marine was cut from the final game. I've seen it multiple times and believe me, i've replayed halo 2 alot as a kid

Hey ebr can u do the evolution of the flood?

that timing on the first line had me

I love the Shadow turret. It's so fast!

1:34 I’m surprised Sg. Guns lasted that long on legendary, I would’ve been pulverized in a heartbeat 💥

Regarding No. 6, Guns also has different dialogue if you're playing co-op, completely different from the single-player stuff kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nMuigJiZqtfeaYU.html

The “hello and welcome” was timed PERFECTLY with thel

Ooo gave me goosebumps lowkee from nestolgia of Halo 2 , amazing video 👍 keep up the great work

0:01 That intro music sounds so smooth and calming and it honestly sound like a real remastered. Where you find it?

6:25 the sniper only spawns if one or more of your original 2 marines are dead, might be smart to kill the BR marine for an extra snipey friend and some extra ammo if you're a psychopath

I enjoy these videos so much. Top notch stuff.

The grunt saying I have a bad feeling about this in the mission the Oracle is actually a reference to the combat evolved mission 343 guilty spark it's a reference to the Marines in the Jenkins recording in the mission

Omg the intro saying hello and welcome fit Arby’s jaw so good

Good vids bro keep up the work

Literally the best halo videos

18:05 The carbines & needlers from the dead covenant in the beginning of sacred icon also have extra ammo. IIRC it’s like 100+ reserve for the carbines Before lowering the shield wall and taking the gondola I always duel wield needlers and you get like 200+ reserve ammo lmao.

The Soundtrack Speech played backwards is my favorite soundtrack of the game. Makes the campaign seem intense.

I got emotional at seeing the elites paying their respects to their fallen brethren. I was only a kid but that stuck with me to this very day. The music still makes me misty eyed 😂❤

0:00 Arbiter: Hello and welcome

The grunt playing with the toys makes it look cute

Watching this gave me Halo nostalgia. Such great games.

8:40 keep rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rolling keep rollin rollin rollin rollin roll

“Close your jaws or I shall bind them shut.” I absolutely LOVE elites. 😂

Thanks for uploading!

oh shit he uploaded and I didn't get a notification!? Anyways glad to see another one of these, love em

I think if you did one of these with all the cut content for each game, it would be super interesting.

Still my favourite halo game

in number 80, did anyone else see the scorpion shoot while on the pelican???

Seeing the captured Elite uncage allies is really cool.

“two dead grunts and two dead energy swords” idk man, those energy swords don’t look very dead to me

25:05 You can also bring your Banshee inside the Control Room building if you maneuver it around the debris in the first room. Removing the wings first makes it easier. I've never been able to kill Tartarus with it, but you can kill all the other enemies inside of it. It's pretty funny. If you fly too close to a brute they even try to hijack you!

Every person that red the title and read out 117 as a whole isn't a true Spartan

The intro with your voice synced with Arbiter talking cracks me up.

the pelican glitch is in ce too in assault of the control room if you spam rb

Spec ops commander? Man that's the shipmaster

Had no idea you could get into that Pelican on Metro wtf LOL if it wasn't for the number 117 you aim for on these videos, you could definitely hit up to at-least 300 different 'things you may have missed' in Halo 2 alone nonetheless, great vid as always EBR :)

I knew most of this but good video man

I want to see a evolution video on all the new infinite enemy's 🙏

7:13 if you ever do one on Halo 1 there’s a similar trick on Assault on the control room where you can stay on the pelican that flies you in by holding X.

For number 14, I love that Cortana makes a glass taping sounds
