Exactly. I didn’t know I killed an elite who had a major role throughout the campaign. Or, *We* actually for anyone who played the game Lol

The funny thing is that on legendary there's 2 elites there to face Chief down while the Canon only has the 1.

That's why the Flood have trouble infecting him. Fate won't let him die until it is his time to go.

There is the first time I saw Sgt. Johnson. He literally would not die after I killed Keyes

Plot twist: Sgt. Johnson was never there to begin with. Chief was only imagining him and his interactions with others.

The only way Sgt. Johnson is gunna go out...is with a *BANG!*

do that for an ODST 2!

Bro

It would have to be a prequel, like showing them fighting on Reach or several other fronts in the galaxy. That or a sequel taking place during current events, with Cortana or The Banished, and a brand new team that acquired the designation Fireteam Raven.

@@Mcree114 Buck was on reach, would be interesting to see the fall of reach from the eyes of an ODST

Might be cool. Unfortunately I highly doubt there will be any more spin-off Halo FPS games for a long while. Infinite is supposed to be THE Halo FPS game/platform for the next 8-10 years. No more numbered titles and no Halo Infinite sequel in 2 to 3 years like there used to be. They'll just keep adding onto & updating Halo Infinite via story DLC. It could potentially, and eventually happen via Infinite story DLC, which would be alright I guess. What has me worried right now is that this also means whatever Halo Infinite's multiplayer is, Halo multiplayer will be THAT for the next 10 years as well... or at least at it's core, anyway, with updates to game types, sandbox, and maps from time to time. That would be great and more than welcome if Halo Infinite's gameplay mechanics didn't look like very similar to Halo 5 (just neutered a bit in terms of toning down the ridiculous movement mechanics that made H5 so terrible). But who knows, perhaps multiplayer will actually be slightly different to the campaign that they showed off recently in terms of mechanics. They already said the grapple hook & drop wall items will be on-map pickup equipment like Halo 3 had, which is good news IMO. If the sprint, clamber, and "slide" mechanics are limited or even absent from certain playlists/playlist hoppers, Infinite's multiplayer may actually be really solid.

@@vexile12 sorry I'm late but the covenant already knew about the first halo before the autumn jumped to it.

The Covenant discovered and were at Installation 04 waiting for the Autumn to arrive...they already knew it was there. Cortana and Keyes even discuss this in the opening of Halo CE.

We’re gonna die… may as well go out in a blaze of glory

I mean 99% of all the human forces died on the ring luckily it wasn't for nothing

I read that book too 😏

They honestly should have just left out the chief portions. We know what happened already and it was very poorly written. Everything else was really great

Only problem was how it portrayed the chief

yep. It helps explain where the rest of the surviving crew is (which, considering the Autumn supposedly had 2200+ navy, marine, and ODST personnel, is gonna be sizeable).

I would love to take a shower with him lol.

@DAGGER Body odor is caused by bacteria breaking down sweat and is largely linked to the apocrine glands. If that is correct, then Chief shouldn't smell that much since he has the gel layer which regulates temperature which means sweat shouldn't form since there is no need to. But smell from external sources like say Flood, or blood guts and tears that got onto his body in some way...

master chief is also fighting a huge battle.... by himself

@@rodtoflo358 yea but nothing compared the the other battle, the silent cartographer you have around ten marines helping you, one of the largest skirmishes in the game. In the book, “the flood” then there are around 300 ODST trying to take back the pillar of autumn. Plus the numerous platoons of marines stationed on the ship.

Kinda makes sense? The spartans were trained to be the best in all regards so they were probably really great strategists so the best situation for them is to leave them do their own thing instead of restricting them in a path of kill that dude and that guy next.

@@normiewhodrawsonpaper4580 yes it makes sense, I’m just saying I found it humorous.

Coincidentally, I'm currently in the process of finishing reading "The Flood" and Silva and the odsts or marines at Alpha Base actually adress that fact. They're like "we've been hauling this guy on the Autumn thinking he's our most valuable asset and now he's just off in some swamp doing who knows what, fuck him".

They Actually Did, No One Just Bothered to Look at the Autumn's Messages

Cosmic Wanderer So you telling me the Halo universe would’ve been drastically different because someone didn’t do their job checking the Autumn’s inbox.

@@asomewhatdecentperson9190 Fuckin HR man

That’s what happen when you have diversity promotions.

Cosmic Wanderer I did

It's an example of a good novelization of a video game. It didn't just take the events and put them to the page, it focused on the events occurring DURING the game's events. I liked that it answered questions otherwise left unanswered by the game: where were the UNSC survivors based out of during the conflict on Installation 04? What were they doing while Chief was off on his missions? How did the Covenant view the humans and their efforts on the ring? What happened to the Autumn after it crashed and before the Maw? What happened during the Flood outbreak? What happened to the Truth and Reconciliation after we left it in Keyes? Halo: The Flood went above and beyond in answering those questions.

+1, The novelization of Halo CE is such a fun read

Much more props to nylund though

The Flood was awful though.

Master Chief How? It brought so much more depth to the story than the game could. You got to see how the actual battle of installation 04 unfolded in the timeline rather than big man in green suit shoots up the place. Seeing how the crew of the POA survived and operated was a neat part to the story

CT-301 Legobuilder3190 The Elite LMFAO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

It almost makes you wonder, if the humans ended up knowing about the flood, do you think they would have intentionally used it to exterminate the Covenant? The way I see it going down, they discover the flood and the rings abilities, and they decide to unleash the flood and order the ring to perform a slipspace jump into covenant territory (after studying it to acquire any and all knowledge it holds), they leave the defenses up and the Covenant take significant losses trying to board, then lose even more trying to capture it from the flood, then the humans, knowing about the arc and its ability to remotely detonate the rings, detonate 04 and wipe out the Covenant and the flood aboard it, in 1 fell swoop.

Tbh you'd think they would have the aid of spark and have a better time on the ring

Woah Woah dude chill. You don’t have to scream

Halo ce is on par with half life 1

Me too. For a few years, the books were my only way to engage with Halo, so you can imagine how sad I was when I found out there was no novelization of Halo 2.

@@HaloCanon So many details to be fleshed out, like what Keyes and Johnson were up to and maybe some of Truth's thoughts like in Contact Harvest

I'd buy a Halo 4 novelization *exclusively* to read the scene where Hood finds out about Del Rio abandoning John on Requiem.

@@autumngottlieb3071 Honestly, a brief third person account from the POV of one of the Spartan IVs that retrieve the Chief in the forests of requiem, could have be really cool. Accounts of fighting prometheans and covenant alongside him.
