You should consider since black friday is coming up. :)

I used to like these kinds of videos on Halo 3.

Arm Rest same

Ive had an Xbox for 10 years now

Arm Rest get one, online is quite fun

Jacob Wade ikr

nice intro dude!

Cool new intro!

Aozolai Fuge I need my does of videos lol

Aozolai question, how come you use the talon o the lost to show armor strength?

Aozolai

Awesome!

I think the Phaeton should've been more exotic and alien, though... The design looks too much like a UNSC aircraft outfitted with Forerunner weapons... Even the Covenant has more weird-looking aircrafts

To be fair, the Covenant developed their weapons with "high technology" in mind. Humans & Forerunners in contrast focus on functionality & battle effectiveness. Humans & Forerunners are also metaphorical cousins. The result for the Covenant is exotic, but not as effective. The result for Humans & Forerunners is plain, but gets the job done. If you go deep into the story, you'll find that in the Human/Covenant war, Humans win the majority of ground side battles & other firefights. The Covenant was only winning because their Slipspace tech was more advanced & could glass planets from orbit, but since Humans won due to the Schism, the fact that they're Reclaimers, as well as Cortana's & other AIs data file thievery & reverse engineering, Humanity actually wound up more advanced than the Covenant. Now it's just the Prometheans that Human fall short against. I specify Prometheans because their caste was/is anti-human. Any other Forerunner caste would be pro-human, but they all be ded.

@@davidlong2338 There's something I wish to elaborate on first: The Promethean chapter weren't really anti-humanity, which is a misconception that 343 also partially caused. The Didact's original strategy, cutting of the human forces rather than fighting them head-on, was to minimise casualties between his forces and the humans, because even he saw humanity as a species protected by the Mantle of Responsibility. His strategies, combined with the vast resources he fielded (Teleporting planets and throwing potentially hundreds of millions of warships...) did grant him a huge edge over the humans, and the opposition was largely contained. Even in the final definitive strike against Charum Hakkor, the Forerunners stopped their advances when humanity finally yielded. This is vert important, because humanity's actions were actually more morally questionable than Forerunners' doing. The former fought a desperate, though partially justified (humanity used many dirty to downright horrifying things just to try evening the odds against the Forerunners, and their alliance with the San'Shyuum beforehand was more of the result of militaristic subjugation than mutual collaboration...), war against two celestial level foes with seemingly infinite numbers, while the Forerunners fought with clear principals and not under the doctrine of extermination. Furthermore, the Forerunners were also fighting a two-front war with the Flood being a wild card that devoured everything it touches, making humanity's stands even more questionable. And when the war ended with the Didact hoping humanity would rehabilitate, Master Builder convinced the Council, who gave into their fear and the desire to dominate, ordered humanity's devolution, turning the once powerful galactic civilization into a race of actual cavemen, which the Didact agreed, however, he saw this more as a just punishment for the war crimes humanity committed, and it was true that humanity could be seen as the greater evil of the two... Then the Flood war came, and through myriads of unexpected events, the Didact wind up having a nice little chat with a Gravemind... And things goes from terrible to undescribable for the Didact. The Gravemind projected unspeakable horror into Didact's mind, a method not to dissimilar to the Logic Plague. The Gravemind twisted his visions and morals and left him alive and forever tormented with this changed personality of his. (For some reason 343 left this entire plot point out and make Didact's turn to villainy utterly unexplained in Halo 4's terminals.) The Didact's forced insanity affected him gravely, he issued virtually ineffective tactic against the Flood (Promethean Knights), saw conquering the Galaxy after the end of the Flood war as a reasonable way to enforce, not "uphold" anymore, the Mantle, and felt a bottomless desire to exterminate all of humanity. You can say Didact's current stand against humanity is as unjustifiable as humanity's own atrocities, but please know that there was irreversible causes for his now broken psyche...

@@davidlong2338 As for the aesthetic of 343's Forerunner design, I think they went too much with the "practicality" idea: when you see a Forerunner artifact, you could instantly know it works... vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/halo/images/6/67/H5F_Render_Z250LightRifle.png/revision/latest?cb=20160925064812 This looks just like a regular rifle... During the Bungie era, Forerunner technology was a lot more mythic and mysterious. When we first saw a Halo, we didn't know what it was for; when we learned that it was a super weapon, we didn't know how it worked until the Halo 1 terminal came out a decade later. The Keyship and the Sojourner dreadnoughts in the first Halo wars also fall into this category. vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/halo/images/f/f0/HW16.png/revision/latest?cb=20140211122109 vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/halo/images/2/2f/DreadnaughtPanoramic-1.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20121027174516 Their looks were very exotic and even strange, which make you ponder even longer about their functionality and nature. This doesn't mean I think 343's designs were completely bad; in fact, the best rendition of Forerunner constructs and architecture were featured in Halo 2 remaster, made by none other than 343 industry. What I'm hoping for is to see Forerunners being larger than life and truly alien again. And how about bring out some Forerunner weapons with downright bizarre functions??? Like the temporal gun cut from Halo 4. Slip-space rupture grenades. Personal teleportation device. Guns with recharging ammo. Molecular distortion fields. "Rocket" launchers firing micro black holes... Or the super ability to summon portals that opens directly to a star, raining stellar inferno to your enemies...

Well, given what you stated about the Prometheans & Humans (though I think you don't give humans enough benefit of doubt considering that they were fighting an incurable hive-intelligent zombie plague), all of the "Forerunner" weapons we've seen so far could actually be considered Promethean weapons that have become bastardized versions of their former design due to the corruption of the Ur-Didact & his (AI?) legion. Not only that, putting the "pragmatic & practical" aesthetic aside, Forerunners & Humans are still very identical & so could wind up with similar biases & preferences in their tech development. I personally would like to see if we learn more about Precursors, or even meet survivors.

Thanks!

AnubisX yeah, yeah, same.

AnubisX I wish it had the hornet from prior halos as well, I love their helicopters.

Fastest doods. Almost as fast as editor mode full speed

Probably would be if I knew how to pronounce it

@ThatShadyEnder faye-taun, ton is wrong because on= un

Thats not really the games fault

I know this is late, but really you should either coordinate with your teammates or save legendaries, etc for firefight.

Pffft What the fuck is "coordination"?

Problem is that you worked to get that legendary. You should have just bought Req Packs until you got one.

@@fulcrum2951 you speak the true true

LegendaryASF yeah me too

Wait the nose of the phaeton is a weak spot? And thr glowing circle actually takes more shots than the nose?

@@wolfwarrior1176 I'm assuming what he meant was the other way around, otherwise that doesn't make sense.

@@samsonsson328 ye

Police phaeton

Don't we all

I think they can’t bring it back bcuz it will be the only vehicle where u can’t switch seats while driving

@@maureenlocke5542 wait, YOU CAN SWITCH SEATS?!

I hope we get it in some way in the next 10 years of infinite

@@rickmarinara5179 only in halo 5 sadly

Thanks man, he was actually taunting and burst firing the cleansing beam because it was the 5th time we were doing the 1-v1 (just to make data consistent). The Helios easily crushed the regular Phaeton all the previous times. I chose this clip of the 1-v-1 because I knew you guys would see the Helios at a disadvantage, sluggish, not evading much, yet it still won at that range.

Yeah, i can understand that, it is really obvious how overpowered the helious is. You se, the main reason why i started to play halo is because i was so amazed by how epic the phaeton was, i got it the certification for the phaeton really earliy in a lucky pack and i was so hyped i was shaking. I practiced it so much in forge/custom games and im really skilled with the veichle now. So i got a bit annoyed by how bad the guy was using the beam, but thanks for explaining it. i will send you a message when i got the time! so make sure to check your inbox in a few hours! :)

Rampant Praetorian Hannibal*

ONI vehicles are badass.

That it does, but trust me I put over 1,500 bullets into each Phaeton (348 bullets per damage test), and used the ONI chaingun (38 shots each for additional verification), their armor is the same.

That's really odd, why would 343 lie about adding armour? I see that your methods are sound, so don't really get why it doesn't have upgraded armour. Maybe they've nerfed it in a recent update?

Yup

The map is "Temple" only in Warzone Assault

Aozolai oh, I can't seem to find games in Assault unfortunetely

Anthony Robles the song is beautiful by sapphieros

+Anthony Robles If you're referring to the intro song, then it is just a 15 second instrumental segment offered by the website. Not sure if it's an actual song though.

Can you find out for us? :)

The primary gun of the phaeton Helios is much easier to use.

I test them in Forge, but I also never use any of my REQs is Warzone... It's funner to steal weapons from the enemy team, well at least for me - 'REQ hunting'.

*in

Aozolai fair enough

first time i used a hanibal scorpion i stole it from an enemy. emped him a couple times he got out i killed him and got in. used the hanibal to kill the warden and win the game. funniest thing was that as soon as i killed the warden i got killed.

Lel

I don't think it's a song, just a 15 second music segment

Master Chief Petty Officer John 117 I think the Prometheans shouldn't even exist.

Ethan Lang u need to read some lore too

JJTrOnE I think phaetons are betters. Theyre primary is better and they have great armor plus theyre super fun to use ^_^

Bruno Armond Nah, they dish out a lot of fire power but they have very weak armor. They can be easily be taken down by plasma pistol, laser, railgun, and even rockets. So if the enemy team is completely shit then I guess that the phaeton is better lol

Nope, Helios shreds a temple banshee

SorryRooster 21 Wait what? The new design looks more like a tank.

SorryRooster 21 I miss the old scorpion too.. I hate the new models of everything so far, and I try to like them but just can't

Shizuka Then you're not trying very hard :')

how so?

Yes

Barely

Maldus Alver you can but it’s really not pay to win

It’s pay to win in the way that no one uses reqs unless they have a stockpile of them, and that most reqs are 1-time uses for most of the players

Cthulhu hornet,I think you can have gunners on the side (correct me if I'm wrong )

Falcon is definitely the coolest.

Joey Lupoli duh it's a mythic

no...

nah. not even in a close range fight. You saw that one round of the helios missles destroyed a wasp. If it was a long ranged fight it would be just way to unfair for the Hannibal wasp.

Giovanni Leone but if you get in close underneath it, you'll wreck it with the hannibals ion bombs fast. They're pretty effective in that instance. I just like the Hannibal wasp better tho, personally

I'm just sayin if you get the jump on a helios and blast its underbelly with the ion bombs, its goin down. I've done it before.
