What's that beginning delta halo strat where you get the checkpoint before you climb over the hill? Does it save time from having to walk all the way to the corner of the cliff?
^ You *have* to/need to load in each section chronologically or else you break the level and can't progress any further (i.e., enemies won't spawn and you'll have an empty level that can't be completed). That checkpoint on the hill loads in the jackal section - going over the mountain leads you right to the part after that - so in-case you didn't get a Sword (certain Ultra Elite spawns are RNG) to Swordfly off the jackal section (which is already a risky strat during a full-game speedrun), there's a safer strat to keep things moving along.
Glad to see you doing these runs again, cat. Now this might be a stupid question, but what button layout do you use? Edit: also, how come sometimes you’re using a controller, and other times you’re using MnK?
I play controller for levels that have swordflies because it's just easier, then I play MnK for driving levels, my controller layout is bumper jumper btw
Gravemind prison-skip and High Charity are the big ones but i guess you could Butterfly thru all of Uprising and the start of Regret + Cairo's tram-skip uses the same melee lunge mechanic. Skipping through levels saves time but Butterflying doesn't showcase everything Halo 2 has to offer and I think that's the point. i.e. Butterflying could be considered "lame", and makes runs almost absolutely boring to watch. Halo Infinite Any% killed itself in the same way all for the sake of "optimizing" its runs.
Cryphon did an AGDQ run a few years back and it was pretty sick tbh. Dunno how the staff would take an MCC H2A run, given how H2A isn't standalone and you can play it on 3 different platforms (XboxOne, X|S, PC), they might be lame and not allow it.
You can but it’s much easier to do on lower fps and mcc on Xbox runs at 60 I’m pretty sure making it twice as precise as you had to be on the og Xbox but I could be wrong so if I am someone correct me
You can 110% swordfly on xbox and do most of the same things as you would on PC. The only 'trick' that's pretty difficult/maybe impossible on xbox is consistently ghosting through the glass on Arbiter to reach the banshee section faster. You can even do the elevator skip at the beginning of the level on xbox
Butterflying allows you to skip huge sections of levels (Gravemind Prison Skip + skip all of Uprising and High Charity via Butterflying). Here's Cryphon's tutorial vid on the High Charity one ua-cam.com/video/Vw1rp9kXebs/v-deo.html
butterflying isn’t sword flying, butterflying is where you get below an enemy and spam the melee button to slowly fly an infinite distance. it’s usually used in halo 2 to skip part of gravemind (fly up a lift) and all of high charity (fly from the start of the level to the trigger for the end of the level)

Been a while Mr Cats, good to see you back
THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND IS BACK 💪🏾😤
1:54 this gets me every time
Excellent as always! I love learning new tricks from these vids. Keep it up, mate!
15:20 rocats: *enters 4th dimension* Elite: "it is well hidden!"
Finally a run where High Charity isn't 20 seconds of flood ass
LMAOOOOO
who said that was a bad thing ??
5 great years of memories showcased in 1:33:01. Thank you sir!
19:28 Shipmaster: “Clear That landing zone and get inside”
Rocats: fuk u
41:46 i felt this.
those jackal snipers just not having it xD
Once you think you finally got them all…… there’s always one more
@@bigbadchupa9511 I was once trying to get skulls in h2 and this is so true. I had like the scarab gun enabled but it was still so annoying. They just kept coming. I forgot which mission
13:42 this had to be personal
Haven’t seen Rocats in a while, but I’m glad he gave me some time to kill.
7:00 lmao
The demon is here *"screams"*
Welcome back buddy appreciate the content
Lmao blowing up the sniper jackal with the wraith at 14:00 was a nice touch
Anybody else think this is actually Zero Master speedrunning Halo 2 instead of Doom ? Love the content .. you are the halo 2 legend !
He lives. Great job as always, mate!
Great gameplay, man. just gotta mention though, that effect around 1:17:50 is super cool, and I wanna probably do something with an effect like that.
Imagine an Halo game where you can ask not just for weapon, but even for ammoes (If the marine has the same weapon you bring) and grenades
I am so late but so glad to see you back
all of a sudden i stopped getting weapon carry over, is this a bug?
Crazy how no butterfly and weapon carry only resulted in 11 more minutes compared to your WR
Time for some popcorn, the legend is back!
Cortana: "the first carrier completely ignored us sir! Blew through malta's debris field and headed straight for Earth!"

My hero, love to see you back at it again. Keep on keeping on ❤️
season 9 doing us dirty with no carryover
First cairo hangar clear is so fucking clean wow
What's that beginning delta halo strat where you get the checkpoint before you climb over the hill? Does it save time from having to walk all the way to the corner of the cliff?
Its needed to load the next part of the level. since he avoids the sniper section he needs to trigger that checkpoint before going over
^ You *have* to/need to load in each section chronologically or else you break the level and can't progress any further (i.e., enemies won't spawn and you'll have an empty level that can't be completed).

1:12:59 did the brute shot bullet hit the grenade midair???
Glad to see you doing these runs again, cat. Now this might be a stupid question, but what button layout do you use?
Edit: also, how come sometimes you’re using a controller, and other times you’re using MnK?
If i had to guess he is playing on pc with a controller and uses his mouse to navigate some menus. Thats what i do anyway.
I play controller for levels that have swordflies because it's just easier, then I play MnK for driving levels, my controller layout is bumper jumper btw
@@rocats ahhhh okay, thank you!
why didnt you take any damage from hits after the upwards lift jump on The Oracle? Does that make you invincible for the rest of the level?
Ditto
Yeah it squished your hit box I think making you invincible. If you don’t time it right, it messes with the gravity and can make you float .
Quite an impressive feat.
bro its been a while ngl
Got the delta halo ghost launch first try- nice
Good to see you again
now in halo 2 project cartographer you can sword fly at 30 fps. :v
nice new pfp ronald
Dope run. Are the view models different here? Any reason to specifically leave out butterflying? Isn’t there only one skip associated with it anyway?
On MCC you can choose different weapon offsets for sets of guns he simply has his lowered and centered so that it takes up less space on the screen

Good run! the butterfly glitch was always dumb imo
he lives
What if you do a speedrun where you use the fastes glitches and tricks, making it faster than the other one witch is already your best?
The Plasma pistol is your bff when playing legendary haha
There is no Weapon Carry over at all in MCC right?
There is, metropolis will try to start you with the weapons you had from outskirts and regret same thing but for Delta halo
wake up babe new rocats video
UNSC marines: Woohoo, chief is here.!!!!
MC: *jump *jump *bash *jump
UNSC marines: But chieffff......*ded.
Hey rocats. Have you ever thought about doing this GDQ?
Cryphon did an AGDQ run a few years back and it was pretty sick tbh. Dunno how the staff would take an MCC H2A run, given how H2A isn't standalone and you can play it on 3 different platforms (XboxOne, X|S, PC), they might be lame and not allow it.
why did u hop in and out of the ghost at around the hour mark?
Is this a wr? For no butterflying and weapon carry over speed run?
Cuz i wouldnt be surprised, fr King
Amazing in Delta Halo
Magnifique GG
I can’t seem to sword fly , can it be done on Xbox?
You can but it’s much easier to do on lower fps and mcc on Xbox runs at 60 I’m pretty sure making it twice as precise as you had to be on the og Xbox but I could be wrong so if I am someone correct me

Rocats rusty gameplay is unattainable for 99% of players.
What's butterflying?
Butterflying allows you to skip huge sections of levels (Gravemind Prison Skip + skip all of Uprising and High Charity via Butterflying). Here's Cryphon's tutorial vid on the High Charity one ua-cam.com/video/Vw1rp9kXebs/v-deo.html
I like to think you do these runs on an Xbox 360 with an old tube TV.
Crazy as allways but help me out, what is Weapon Carryover?
weapon carryover is when you'll still have the same weapons from the last mission at the start of the next one.
And butterflying is..?
first chilean comment ♡
@43:15 ghost fish
Nice 👍
why is there flying in a no fly speedrun?
is it banned only if it's for skipping section and not just movements?
butterflying isn’t sword flying, butterflying is where you get below an enemy and spam the melee button to slowly fly an infinite distance. it’s usually used in halo 2 to skip part of gravemind (fly up a lift) and all of high charity (fly from the start of the level to the trigger for the end of the level)
you beast
Very POG
those beeps..
No Armory?
Wort wort wort!
This view model. Why?
Mr Cats!
Got the 343rd like, good to see you again
Please stop giving Rocats a hard time
If you had a run ruined because of a bathroom emergency then you’d stream from the toilet too.
Where wr?
it is isn't it? no butterfly or sword carryover
@@mikeoxmall2130 I was joking. I wanna see another FG wr.
But yeah, pretty sure this is a wr for no butterfly and no carryover
haha yes
This guys is literally using everysingle exploit he can pixelately find.
"No butterflying" 😂
But you picked up a weapon…
Good chit
Ok so play the full campaing in the classic xbox...
This aint legendary its way too easy. Play classic.
I am the one hundred mark comment. That is all. Carry on, citizens.
