Halo Vehicles That Didn't Make The Cut (Deleted Halo Vehicles)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 тра 2021
- Halo's Warthog, Ghost, Banshee, etc are ICONIC Halo Vehicles that are in almost every single Halo game. But what about some of the Halo Vehicles that didn't quite make the cut and got deleted from Halo's development?

Fun fact: the halo 4 mammoth actually has a hud assigned to it, which leads me to believe that at one point the mammoth was supposed to be drivable
Most vehicles have huds because they knew modders would find a way
We were this close to greatness
Can’t you drive it in H2A
@@sgtfloppyskawt no, it only appeared in h4
once mod tools are released for MCC, it will definitely be made drivable
The Kodiak cut from Reach was used later in Halo Wars 2
Agreed
Was about to comment that
I’m pretty sure the Covenant’s troop Shadow was mentioned in one of the Halo books, I can’t remember which one.
I think it was the name being reused, but not the same vehicle
@@mcintoshpc that has to be the case cause I think the halo wars 2 kodiak is inspired from the halo wars 1 Rhino
so when we getting how many trees in Halo
Yeah and then the follow up; how many flood spores in halo
@@eendo_ agreed
@@eendo_ and then followed up by how many rocks this is very valuable information
@@jeremiahfontanez5956 follwed up by how many grains of sand.
@A which is then followed by how many polygons are in halo
“There was a UNSC cougar”
Looks more like a puma
Potato potato; puma, cougar.
I really hoped people would get the reference but whatever
@@ryaquaza3offical it’s a jeep
@@ryaquaza3offical same
What in sam hell is a puma??
The elite johnson was hugging at the end of Halo CE was supposed to be a vehicle too
Offscreen johnson folded him like a paper plane and rode it into space
Hey man, that's classified
@@austinbaccus huh? my ass, well you can forget about those adjustments to your a2 scope....
Well he’s in a particularly fine mood maybe lord hood didn’t send him an invention.
Cannon
@@daka3785 Tell that to the covenant.
7:50 Waterhog, that’s what I’m calling it
Agreed
this fits so much.
why cant we have waterhog.
why.
@Surya Selvakumar That would be cool, the only problem is Most maps in Halo don't have water
Yup I had that exact same idea too
What about Hippo?
I'm not sure, but I think the extended cargo bay Pelican is still canon.
I think Brohammer flies one in Infinite
@@bigtasty42069 It's possible. It seems larger than a normal Pelican.
Think it made an appearance in one of the books (First Strike MAYBE), though it wasn't explicitly stated it was that variant
It was mentioned in Ghosts of Onyx, it’s an attachment for a normal Pelican called the Blood Tray.
@@kpmh2001 the blood tray is just a nickname for the pelican’s troop bay. The extension was never seen in canon, but was implied in the original fall of reach book. The pelican that took the spartan II candidates to the training reserve was later retconned into an Albatros in the 2010 reprint, the fall of reach comic, and the fall of reach animated series
The “specter” that you mentioned at 2:20 was actually called the shadow and it had a shade turret instead of the usual plasma one seen in Halo 2.
Another fun fact is that the shadow/specter is actually seen in the CE SPV3 mod. It’s actually a pretty common vehicle and fit well into halo ce
In one of GeneralKidd's videos, He played the Halo 3 Demo and there was a mobile shade turret that was cut. It wasn't textured and the physics didn't work too well. But it did shoot.
Tell that to the government that’s classified
Its weird cuz one of my first halo 3 memories was me rolling around in a shade turret, its really weird.
I feel like the flood-infected vehicles may have been removed for balance reasons, as some of those are very strong and the flood in HW2 having that would have been even more difficult to deal with. Would have been neat from a lore perspective though.
If a faction losses something they get buffs to compensate for it, if they had vehicles they would have been stated in a way that made it balanced, removing something for balance only works when that choice would only be nonviable, or broken because the faction shouldn't have a unit that preforms that role, so none of which applys here
So I’ve been thinking...
How many allies in Halo CE, 2, and 3 can be saved?
The marines at floodgate. Poor bastards
The ones are scripted to die?
That would be cool to see. I try to save every marine
@@4realm8rusirius i think so. There to hard to save
well CE is like legally zero since everybody but you and cortana died but those other games might be interesting!
Omg, they should add the boats into Reach MCC, I know the only map that would work is Forge World, but still.. it's cool man.
All these look cool, they should utilize more of the unused ones!
and the thing is, the covenant wouldnt be left out and wouldnt need a new vehicle since all their vehicles float and should also technically be able to float above water
A boat in halo would be so fun lol warthog+boat= fun asf
Waterhog ?
@@tsarbombawithinternetconne875 the sheer amount of deaths because it flipped over xD
1:50 The "stealth tank" is actually a thing in mechassault 2, for the many of you who didn't play that game. The design looks very similar and it can go completely invisible.
Mechassault was awesome, love that game
Whenever I hear "Stealth Tank" my mind goes to the Command & Conquer Tiberium Wars 3 Nod vehicle.
It’s always a pleasure to hear about this era of Halo. If I could wish for only one element from the pre CE Halo to return in modern halo games, it would be the wild life
what do you mean
@@vitorgdc like the blind wolf
Looks like infinite will be up your alley then, idk how far they will go with it but there definitely seems to be wildlife!
@@coolfrymaster oh yea that’s definitely cool, even if it’s little things just to liven up the environment
im pretty sure the kodiak is in halo wars 2, it has a mega construx set and everything
It is and it’s role is artillery while its original role as an apc was given to a different vehicle
My favorite vehicles from this list:
- The snow warthog with wing doors from halo 2
- The warthog boats
- The forerunner tank
There was also another cut vehicle called the mantis in halo 3
The mantis is in Halo 4, big rocket mech.
I know the mantis is in halo 4, there was halo 3 vehicle called the mantis that was cut. I think that was where 343 got the name for the mantis in halo 4.
@@justsomehalofan4386 ok
YOU KNOW TO DAY IS GOING TO BE GOOD
A new rocket sloth video… I gotta get a good snack
The grunt standing on the bench is so cute
8:43 fun fact ensemble never got permission from Microsoft to make a halo mmorpg, a group of employees just thought it would be cool to make since they were tired of making RTS games and then one day a Microsoft rep came in and ended up reporting the “unauthorized project” (Microsoft owned ensemble). Is it a coincidence that a few days later Microsoft told ensemble they were being closed down after they finished halo wars?
Halo Wars wasn’t even meant to be a Halo RTS, Microsoft wanted it but Bungie didn’t like the idea of another developer working with their IP. Oh, the irony.
@@austinhinton3944 No, Bungie did not like Microsoft making a game with their IP that they owned at the time. They did help Ensemble when they had questions about lore and continuity though.
Kinda like brothers understanding Dad/Mom is being a dumbass again.
Microsoft then laid off Ensemble staff and screwed up much of their development process, before finally axing their studio to save money.
I didn't know Ensemble tried making a Halo RPG. I do know the Halo Chronicles MMORPG was developed with oversight from Peter Jackson. Bungie and Peter Jackson wanted desperately to make something Halo related. Microsoft kept ghosting them before all ideas were dropped and they gave up.
I know Microsoft issued a cease and desist order against a fan made RTS mod called Halogen. It was for C&C. It was really cool. It happened before their announcement of Halo Wars.
@@BungieStudios i would very much like a Halo RTS thats more in the style of C&C.
Bring the Boomerang back! (Heh, get it? Cuz boomerangs… come back? Eh?)
Halo water combat. Think about that for a second.
I hope there will be water sections in halo infinite. Imagine having to drive a boat to say, the silent cartographer island, while being attacked by air vehicles or maybe banished water craft.
@@justsomehalofan4386 I would lose my mind if that happens
a lá Bloodwake
Water sucks in video games everyone hates water levels
I think having the expanded pelican and troops transport would make halo MP objective games more exciting, especially with btb 2.0. But to be honest. I would love most of the halo wars vehicles brought into halo FPS just because they are so unique and amazing that if, a big if, 2.0 was. 25v25 those would make a more intense and hard war fought game mode. Also, the boats would be badass.
The UNSC watercraft is in a Arma 3 mod giving us a chance to see something never added.
You can look up gameplay of halo reach test footage, they actually do show off this vehicle traversing over waves which is really cool. The test footage still uses a lot of halo 3 assets because this was EARLY gameplay, there’s also a mechanic to mount hunters and lodge a grenade in their back too. Very cool stuff.
Go to 1 minute in that video and you’ll see the boat warthog
@@asimplepie2279 yeah but the mod is a way to use it
@@Real_Human973 was just curious if you’ve seen it 😎
Dude it just hit me. Unsc boats could’ve been amazing cuz they don’t need to make covenant equivalents...CUZ COVENANT GROUND VEHICLES ALREADY HOVER. Imagine going against wraiths and ghosts out on the water in one of those warthog boats!
I honestly didn't like the idea at first but reading this changed my mind. It could be pretty interesting to if they implemented Spartans inability to swim as a take down tactic and perhaps give a swim perk or something on a Loadout
kodiak...
you mean the artillery unit in halo wars 2, which you just didnt mention at all
Really sad to hear the Specter wasn't put into Halo CE, despite it's sheer perfection. Bungie must have been scared that the world wasn't ready for it.
I wonder what gives the Specter specifically such a cult following. Not to say I don’t like it, but there are some people who REALLY like it. Cool vehicle, but some people are fanatic! Not knocking that, by the way. Only makes me love it more.
@@aetherace8775 Because *BOOST ON A COVVIE WARTHOG*
and
*4 PASSENGERS*
@@aetherace8775 I always loved its design, and the fact it’s a warthog that has boost. If you put it on a map with warthogs, obviously people would choose the warthog, but having a map with only two spectres on it? Would offer different variety in how maps play.
@@aetherace8775 its cause the Covenant have trash for vehicles minus the Wraith and ghost and the Revenant
I think it’s halo ce design is way better
Lord I wish they had the time to make halo 2 like they wanted LOL
It would be an entirely different game basically
Would have been cool if they added the stuff in for the anniversary additions
There'd be sprint, lmao!
Its already my favorite halo game, but it would be no contest if it was given an extra 6 months to a year.
I've heard in Halo 3 that there was concept art for a Flood form which would act like a Vehicle in the Campaign. I think HiddenXperia did a video about it also including all the other flood forms that were cut
Yeah, the Flood Transport Form.
We need a playlist of jus cut content
Great content keep up the good work
It would be cool if they had an archipelago area and to traverse they brought in the water craft
I love this channel I just started waiting and subscribed. Keep up the good videos
1:04 Top left, you can see where 343 got the idea for the Wasp from.
The "water warthog" has some in action footage if I remember right, its in the same video as the "global battles" and "biped scaling" demonstration clips that bungie showed between halo 3 and reach's releases.
Of all the gameplay concept demonstrations shown, only space combat made it to reach and was likely heavily scaled down.
tbh i don't even wanna see the cut vehicles make it into games, i just wanna see Kodiaks get into a main-line game. Kodiaks are fucking awesome.
Always happy when watching your vids
Did you really play the megaranger instrumental theme in the first 47 seconds?
best video idea "How many ghost's annoyingly come at you in Delta Halo" Lmao
especially if bandana is on
@@jenniferbarangan1502 even better loll
That is too funny that they came up with water vehicles prior to my creation, the Water Strider and a ship called the Mallard which can both fly as usual but also float on water, too. Also, as a Garg fan, LOVE that a Gargoyle was considered but sad it never came to fruition... Would've loved to have tried that out (I think I also made it submerge, too).
That’s one of my only complaints about the Halo franchise is getting a cool weapon or vehicle and then bam it’s gone in the next game and never seen again.
I think it’s interesting that UNSC vehicles are named after animals while Covenant vehicles are named after different kinds of ”ghosts”
These vids are insanely good tho
I remember playing a custom map for Halo Custom Edition that had those warthog boats in them and it was a ton of fun, very unique vehicle. I remember another with the snowhogs too, I think that one was Coldsnap.
Snow hog was modded back in CE and was featured on many different maps. Because it had windows, you wouldn't fall out of it when it flipped. This could either be a good and bad thing depending on the situation you're in.
The troop shadow must have been cut VERY close to launch as the manual that came with halo 2 used the image of and had a description of the troop transport variant
The infected vehicles part, I’m not 100% sure but you can definitely get infected vehicles and aircraft. The flood in firefight even use them in halo wars 2
The kodiac is a halo wars vehicle. Mainly in Halo wars 2. Is a seige weapon for the UNSC. Think mini MAC, arty style.
why do i love your channel? I will never know why
I'd call the reach boats Orcas. It keeps the animal name tradition and pays homage to the ship from Jaws as an easter egg.
That thumbnail speedboat looks like so much friggin' fun, not gonna' lie.
Also those Flood vehicles ARE in the game - I've lost my fair share to infection and been swarmed by way too many infected Warthogs.
5:53 the superman is where you hold whatever you are riding above you, like superman lifting up a car
I still think Halo needs a heavier-armored vehicle that operates like the Warthog but takes more hits and seats more people
you got your wish in infinite
Hi I love the vids keep it up
Not going to lie some of those Halo Wars vehicles looked pretty sick in those concept images of them
underwater areas of halo would be wonderful. Subs, boats, underwater artifacts and bases, maybe a new covenant typing from the lekgolo forming into different underwater enemies
I really wanna see that Leviathan mobile base in Halo infinite. That would be one crazy ride
these vehicles and cut content is very cool
For those curious about the music into he beginning, it's Denji Sentai Megaranger
All these ideas are probably all gonna be in Halo Infinite, on release day, or after a while of release with that 10 year support.
7:45 the Kodiak did make it in to halo cannon in Halo Wars 2 as a mobile artillery cannon.
That boat concept art looks like the alternate build for the halo infinite mega construx worthog
Yeah i think they are doing water stuff for infinite
I'm pretty sure the troop pelican inspired the condor which is a larger pelican that can get rid of troop space for a heavy railgun
Why has water been such a hard concept to grasp ever since the first Halo 😂 Do you guys remember being able to drive a warthog completely underwater on silent cartographer? Legendary
Still holding out for a fully imagined Chupacabra in the future.
Neato complication of vehicles, wished the vehicles like the frigates were drivable, but only for mods.
The snow warthog is pretty sick. I think the flood infected vehicles are kind of cool; like flood biomass fusing to machinery to make a cyborg type thing
5:54 also the mongoose drove like ASSSSSS which you can find out by modding it into Halo 2
Facts about the water Doozy, being a version of the Destiny Sparrow 3:42
In that Halo mmo wasnt there a bike called grackle, variants of scorpions and warthog, rhino gunship
I do like the boats.
They’d have to teach the Spartans how to swim though.
Maybe a perk like sprint or whatever.
Edit: you can find some footage in the Reach Prototypes video.
if I remember correctly, bungie actually showed the boats for reach in action briefly in one of their previews (back when they were still talking about large scale battles and all that)
Yeah they were cut because the water physics just didn’t work right.
A cut vehicle from halo infinite which is the skiff has a crashed varient in game near the waterfall with the cave behind it with a skull in it
I want to see the kodiak APC from reach as halo has never had a usable Armored Transport and the boats are pretty cool
The unsc watercraft is in the halo operation trebuchet mod for arma 3 which is cool
There was mention of a Kodiyak, I know there were vehicles in one of the Halo Wars that were named that
I want boathogs really bad tbh. Water halo sounds fun
You know ive had a bad day but when rocket sloth uploaded i got a cherrful
9:54 This vehicle resembled the Halo Wars 2 Mastodon troop transport a lot more than it resembles the Cobra
This is the second time I heard a version of the theme to Denji Sentai Megaranger in a Rocket Sloth Video, this is either a big coincidence for them to use a midi version of the theme or the editor for their videos might be a Super Sentai fan.
Could you imagine a halo infinite map where it was set in the ocean and you had to cooperatively play by taking like different water vehicles like you could play like CTF/big team battle and you would have watercrafts and air vehicles it would have like mini islands and sometimes they would have gravel lifts to the other islands so you have like multiple choices you can even take the land or you can take the water vehicles or the flying vehicles and because of the power seed on there too because then to collect the power seeds would be like on one of the islands and you have to try to take it back to your base and fight with water crafts
The warthog boats for sure. Amphibious battles would be epic in halo.
Aww, yeah!
I feel like some of the cut Halo 4 vehicles are just leftover assets from Halo Reach, since they seem to use the same game engine.
The Covenant Bomber also seems to resemble the Seraph and the Heretic Leader’s ship more (forgot it was called) and I think the Leviathan was changed into a slightly different version of the Elephant.
Edit: Crap, I wish they didn’t cut the infected vehicles in Halo Wars 2. Those look so awesome.
The Kodiacs are actually in Halo Wars 2, it’s my fav vehicle!
Yooo! The Aardvaark got a Mega Bloks set, I remember wondering what the heck it was from!
11:45 “and it was pretty much just a tank, but beefier.😃👍”
The Unsc Super Heavy Tank is probably my favourite sci-fi vehicle of all time. I love EVERYTHING about it, even more than the grizzly because i'd much rather have a single rapid fire cannon than two cannons, and i really think it should become a scorpion variant at some point. I love the cannonvthat looks like a 120mm rail gun, love the turret profile, love plows. It's so perfectly aggressive.
thumbnail reminds me of guy that mods halo ce great vids
Imagine the flood destroying your boat and drowning you that makes the flood more scary
Have allways been a fan how halo names unsc vehicles as normal animals and covenant vehicles as supernatural things might even say "out of this world names"
7:45 the Kodiak made it into halo wars 2. You actually showed it again during the cut infected vehicles
Hey rocket sloth question is the jingle in the background of your video intros from megaranger it sounds familiar
A Halo MMO would be dope now that there are five factions in the franchise at the moment.
Ayy let’s get it guys!
It wasn't cut but the Halo Wars talk just reminded me how much I want the Locust to appear as a vehicle in a mainline Halo game.
Megaranger lol, it always catches my attention XD.
Wait I’ve seen the one w seats in game- was it some sort of glitch in spawning if it’s not supposed to appear? Or maybe it was in ODST?
This was a cool video yo
