How the Covenant won the Battle for Earth | Halo Battle Breakdown Fixed
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 тра 2018
- On today's Battle Breakdown, we examine how the Covenant managed to overwhelm Earth's defenses and win the Battle for Earth.
The Battle of Earth is featured primarily in Halo 2 and Halo 3, and - despite the presence of the UNSC Home fleet and the various Orbital Defence Platrforms and their Super Macs - sees Earth fall to various Covenant fleets, and later the flood. I'll explain it all on today's Halo Battle Breakdown episode!

Because the Marines had two sticks and a rock...and they had to share the rock.
Captain Cutter HORAH!!!
"Dear humanity,
We regret coming to Earth.
We regret being alien bastards.
And we most DEFINITELY regret the corps just blew up our raggity-ass fleet!"
50 cals, rockets didn't do a thing
We all ran the simulations. Their tough but not invincible, stick with the master chief he'll know what to do.
Thanks for the tank, he never gets me anything
Ummm, Earth isn't a colony world, it is a homeworld.
Melissa Jackson Oof
That is true, but can you imagine how many colonists retreated to Earth by the end of the Human-Covenant War? For them, Earth may as well have been like a colony for them.
Ben Alexander I thought it was 2 billion.
Nope, I was wrong. Wow, that is pitiful.
Ben Alexander There's no way there was only 2 million humans left at the end, that's absurd. Although you may have been talking about Earth itself, that would be more believable, but I know for a fact that the covenant left many outer and some inner colonies completely untouched.
Damn this is the feeling of desperation that the new Halo games sorely miss.
Enrique Mendoza ikr the games make you feel like a badass. Not read though, you feel the desperation there
Damn, didnt know it was this bad- When lord hood said that he only had a handful of ships, I didn't know it was literally.
You can feel the desperation to find a half decent story.
@@anonymouspotato1082 you feel the desesperation in the last 4 misions of Halo:Reach
EL MANCOGAMER XD yep humanity was almost done we’re it not for noble teams sacrifice.
Bro you completely forgot to mention how Lord Hood was a genius and managed to almost wipe out most of the covenant with his ODPs and earths homes fleet, leaving only a handful of Covenant ships left after weeks of hit and run. You articulated it like humanity got its shit pushed in which is kind of true but they went down swinging and almost took both invasion fleets with them.
Wait, like you mean the Covenant ships around the portal were all that remained by the end? Please explain and specify
@@kostakatsoulis2922 I'm not sure entirely, but I do know that on the Halo 3 mission The Covenant (which happens a short while after this event). The covenant forces you fight as chief are basically all that's left. Hit and run tactics, constant sabotage, outright warfare, constant rebellions and civil war had basically eroded the covenant to a miniscule fraction of its former self by the end of the Human-Covenant War.
Death by thousand cuts.
@@kostakatsoulis2922 I always like to rationalise the escape from the Earth as the biggest pocket of Truth's remaining fleet escaping to the Ark, meanwhile scattered fractured pickets continue to fight all over Earth and the Solar System in both land and naval format, since fighting technically didn't end until late December, iirc.
I doubt the entire UNSC fleet was wiped out, and I hardly believe the Covenant we see at the portal was all that's left, but both sides would definitely be decimated, and the fact that Hood could only _spare_ 3 frigates as the few available ships at his disposal tells me that the naval warfare was still going strong and that they still had ships to chuck in, they were just currently occupied.
@@physical_insanity There are multiple sources that state that the 67 someought ships that initially engaged the first Covenant fleet was one of several fleets orbiting Earth. Considering the fact that 20 ODPs scored massive casualties for a fleet of over 300 at Reach, a battle net of 300 ODPs would surely be able to wipe out a fleet of that size while sustaining...sustainable casualties.
The size of the Covenant forces that engaged Earth were many times greater than suggested in the video.
@@physical_insanity there were about 40 covenant ships remaining and a majority of them left through the portal the home fleet had been devestated with only damaged ships and frigates to keep the odps alive which were the only things to reliably kill the covenant ships during the battle after halo 2. The covenant ships that did not go through the portal were less than 5 and by the time the ship master glassed africa all covenant ships were dead
"Dear Humanity... We regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet!"- Sergeant Major Avery Johnson
Oorah
We mostly regret spending more time playing archeologists than doing pest extermination, finding what we came for would have been easier after wiping out all human resistance...
Also it's refreshing to have the aliens doing a in-atmosphere hyperspace ram tactic, only to never use it again like in the Last Jedi.
I mean, why bother with space beams at all?
*OORAH*
oorah!!
Ooo fuckin raahhh
The battle of earth shows if not anything how outmatched the unsc was during the war. Just go to show you how deadly efficient they where in order to survive for so long
The MadTacoEatingFool well.....the unsc did have 300 or more colonies plus earth to hide behind for that 30 years. Yet the unsc only had 20-30 colonies at the end of the war
Big Boi Choi try like more than 500 colonies
Dominic Cart it says in the extended lore that they had around 300
@@lilzp9106 Were the remaining colonies untouched by any Covenant invasion or action and had managed to escape the flame of war? Or did they see limited action but the impact was insignificant for the world to be counted as lost.
@@generalindex9906 So fun fact the Covenant had basically no idea where most of Humanities worlds are so they kind of just randomly find them. it's why the Covenant believed that Reach was humanity's homeworld. Because they didn't know about Earth.
The games didn't indicate the real size of the battle tho, maybe that's why Earth seems so weak in Halo. But when you think of the numbers, it doesn't add up, the invasion force of Reach is almost 700+ ships(or 350, depends on source) and Covenant lost two third of ships to win the battle, which is defended by only 20 ODPs and 150+ ships, a small force considering Earth is defended by 300 ODPs and 100+ ships.
So here are the actual battle's summary:
In the battle of Earth, after the break through and escape of Regret's ship, multiple large waves of Covenant ships reinforcement arrives battling Earth's force (which is still mostly intact, as the book ghost of Onyx indicates the battle on space has went on for 2 weeks, can't battle for weeks if nothing is left; In latter of the book, Earth's defend force spare 1 cruiser and 8 destroyers to aid Onyx, if the situation is dire enough how can they spare such a force?). As the battle rage on for weeks, then the ending event in halo 2 happened, many of the ships loyal to prophet of Truth went off to earth too, and they are the last and largest wave Earth ever met, probably in the hundreds. And in response, UNSC's fleet is mostly wipe out, with a few frigates left, but the Covenant's fleet is reduced to 40 or so. Then the events of halo 3 starts.
The Covenant didnt win the space engagement. That is never stated in any halo source. They punched a hole and landes a force, but never actually defeated the fleets in orbit.
The covenant didnt even win the battle for earth.
@@randomassname445earth was barely a concern, it seems like as far as the Covenant were aware their only priority was the Forerunner access to the Ark
Depending on source, the UNSC Stalingrad, flagship of Battlegroup Stalingrad, is either a cruiser or a carrier. Not Infinity-class carrier but still a carrier. Either way, whichever source you take it from, it is the class that is considered the most powerful human warship and the only class which can slug it out toe to toe with similar sized Covenant vessels.
I agree that you don’t send away a ship(battlegroup) that powerful if the situation is so dire. The fact that Admiral Hood sent away a powerful battlegroup on what is effectively a wild goose chase means he has strength to spare. He also sent away Blue Team on this wild goose chase, by the way. This was around more than 2 weeks after the initial engagement.
Sounds good, no you made this comment 5 years ago, what I like to think is this: Regret appears, focuses all ships on one battle cluster, regrets carrier makes it through and lands, while the rest of the fleet battles in orbit. Some time later likely immediately after halo 2 a large covenant fleet arrives and mops up remaining unsc ships and land on earth
What about the droid attack on the Wookies?
Jedi Archives What about the Chwebacca attack on the Porgs?
Joao Pedro what about the porg attack on the jedi
Darwin dare What about the anakin attack on the younglings?
Joao Pedro what about the youngling attack on the clones
Jedi Archives Get out you Disney worshipping scumbag.
Did you say Earth was the most important 'colony'....
Gavin Yip dum, dum DUUUUUUMMMMMM.
Earth was not the original homeworld. The original earth was destroyed during the human forerunner war and we were relocated when the rings were fired, if i remember right. I could be wrong, but thats what i got out of the stories
Bunny Lackner That is true, but that was for ancient humanity. As far as curetn humanity knows, Earth is humanities homeworld. Also prehistoric humanity is very different from current humanity. More like another species.
Vainer, the didact attacked the ancienr human home world, but the librarian hid them, i thought. Thats what i mean by saying its not the original homeworld. Again, though, thats just what i took from it
Bunny Lackner Erde Tyrene was the original name, if I recall from the forerunner saga correctly.
4:15 You have to upload that as a separate video.
Perhaps on EcksToo?
mrcomp dude what song is this? 😂😂
Resonance
Reach!
This will become a meme
I know real life battles isn't your thing but I'd like to see the great emu war covered
justAguyDs 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
justAguyDs war the aussies lost
Massive casualties on both sides of the war.
Emu war is way more boring than people make it out to be
basically some soldiers wanted to do some training to stop the thousands of emus that were ruining Australia farms. But they emus were able to out run the soldiers making it impossible to kill them. Emus can run up to 50mph and in those environments they outran the jeeps and shit chasing them. It because too much of a cost to wipe them out and they gave up. It was only hyped up because the general who wanted it to be a good advertising point for the army underestimated how many bullets it could take to kill an emu
It still blows my mind how close humanity came to being wiped out, I mean the civilians on earth must have been in complete panic and hysteria once the covenant fleet began its attack with little to no resistance.
Humans gets completely wrecked 90% of the time in these kinda universes😖
Because it somewhat realistically displays what a technological disadvantage would put you at.
Yeah. If it was just humanity pushing other species shit in it would either be Avatar where we are the bad guys or 40K where everything is stupidly powerful and boring
Aquillifer true true but they also show how stubborn humans are as soon as we decide we want to survive
TheT7770ify well even if everything in 40k is stupidly powerful humanity holds the line against almost the whole galaxy... barely
CT-2864 Clone 1853034 which is something most don't get I say,the Imperium of man just BARELY is holding out against...everyone else.
Let's hope another faction doesn't come up from say Andromeda or the nearby dwarf galaxies,or they're going to start to be in a pickle.
This is such a cool new series, thanks EckartsLadder
Have to agree. A pleasure to watch.
Every Alien invaders vs humans scenario in a nutshell
Humanity: Oh no they invaded earth
Humanity: Oh no they killed 90% of our population and we have no defenses anymore.
Humanity: Nvm we have a brave guy willing to fight for us, we are gonna win.
Aliens: OH SHIT
Then you got 40K which is like
USE THE PLANET KILLING SUPERMARINE FOR THR EMPIRE
more like "nvm the Covenant empire split, the Hierarchs are dead and its capital was eaten by Nurgle"
@@birdofgrey6542 Fucking Chaos gods amirite?
Meanwhile, the only Humanity vs Akranhan scenario (now with multiple endings)
Humanity: Fuck you for being a literal paradise, we declare war
Humanity: haha we're winning
Akranhan: Yea no *nukes you from orbit*
Humanity: OH SH- *goes extinct*
Humanity got lucky as hell though. The Covenant suffered Civil Wars and the Flood is what truly stopped them
Halo lore is the best imo. Right up there with star wars
Nitsej The moment I found out the humans in Halo were only the primates, I was blown away
I think it's better than Star Wars, at the very least the current movies. Halo has more depth and better and more relatable characters in my opinion.
Pretty much that. Star Wars when compared to Halo simply lacks depth and that certain something. That something that makes a setting much more believable like characters or a factions motives.
Compare the Sith "insert evulz laughter here" we are just evil doing evil for evils sake and the covenant who started a war with humanity purely on duped religiouse reasons which are simply based on a fear of its leadership of losing all their power and influence if the truth would come out.
Even the internal laws are completly inconsistent and all over the place in Star Wars, from on hand Jedi being little more than glorified sword wielding idiots who can be killed by drunken villages idiots retarded halfbrother with ease to them moving at light speed despite without being torn apart by the force currents into their base atoms and/or destorying everything in a radios of 20km by landing a single strike. Overall i wouldnt classify SW as sci fy, more science fantasy that is mostly based on magic because there is virtually nothing that could be described as anything close to realistic, sensible, believable or anything akin to these terms.
FFS they treat space and space battles as if its a 2D space. They try to make us believe that you can blocked a planet with a mere 5 ships and that the attackers need to directly jump infront of the defenders instead of avoiding them. This isnt just a thing within Rebells or Clone Wars, even all the movies treat space as a 2D well space.
The only thing that i can say that is sensible and actually pretty interesting of an concept is the Hyperdrive and how the setting handles ftl.
...... and remember. Padme died because of the sad.......
40k the best IMO. Halo close second
This doesn't hold a candle to WH40K
Halo lore that’s my thing
That one random kid Ikr. Halo lore is awesome! :)
Pro tip Regrets fleet was wiped along with a big chunk of the home fleet or atleast the parts we see (The 8 Marathons left in the entire navy is kind of meh), the UNSC recalled every ship for the most part to Earth and sort of held their own while sustaining losses as the Covenant basically set a rally point and trickled in. At some point they started jumping past the defense grid entirely and glassing major cities and important sites before Truths fleet arrived and the events of H3 followed. If home fleet got wiped and the Regret and Truths fleets had free roam of earth that whole time the planet would be glass.
I highly recommend you read about the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV. One of the largest and most interesting space battles in Halo and described in depth, with the UNSC using some really cheeky tactics. It would make a great video. Absolutely LOVING this new series btw!
Ya that was very interesting to read
Yes, Eckharts! Diving into my favourite game with this series! I love space battles and hope you do some more Battle Breakdowns in Halo in the future
Noobs were playing on the other teams side
yes they were surely very salty scrubs
tell that to the covenant ;)
The Star Wars Stop were it so easy
Chief-‘permission to leave the station’
CO-‘To do what?’
Chief-‘To return their bomb.’
That one, very brief exchange sums up just how badass Master Chief actually is
Lucas Clark really,it just shows chief is such a nice guy to give them back their bomb like that.
"To give the Covenant back their bomb"*
Even gift wrap it - with mayhem.
Lucas Clark its actually "to give the covadent back their bomb"
Thank you
Eck!! I LOVE this new series you have been putting out lately. Keep up the great work!!
You missed covering why the covenant fleet was so small. Regret was looking for an artifact (the ark portal, I think) with his small science fleet and didn't realize he had stumbled upon the human home world, which had been kept hidden from the covenant, by accident.
Battle of Kuat please the empire did a amazing strategy of using the rings walkers as turbolasers
Cute animal cheered up my sad mood over Africa getting destroyed, Africa is the mother of the human race. Thanks doggo
I literally got chills @2:32. Humanity got so lucky in this series.
I'd love if you could cover the timeline for the Battle of Earth a bit more in depth, especially given that in it's entirety it lasted well over a month. A lot happened while Chief was off-world during the battle and I always felt the timeline and other details of the fight that takes place between Halo 2 and 3 were left ambiguous. That would make a pretty good video.
Wow. So this video just popped up on my feed and I am very impressed. The information was clear and concise with good graphics. You earned another subscriber today!
Love it. Should bring back galactic versus
Recusant Class Light Destroyer vs Something
As long as Master Chief is here, we’re all good.
Loved the video found it interesting, insightful and most of all it brought me those good ol' halo 2 nostalgia vibes. 10 outa 10 glad to see your still making quality content.
This is awesome! We are all used to hearing about spartans fighting on the ground, but rarely do we see a visual on the orbital battles
Yuuzhan vong world ship vs high charity
high charity would lose, unless it had its fleet protecting it, hundreds if not thousands of ships
Yes please Eck that would be amazing high charity vs Yuuzhan vong world ship
I don’t think high charity is really that well armed. Its strength comes from the fleet protecting it.
Actually, high charity is well armed either. It has 1900 plasma beam emitters and 32 superheavy plasma lances collected from forerunner wepon cores (these superheavy plasma lances are easily dozens of kilometers in length shown from Halo: warfleet)
Dry Tv high charity wasn't focused on main guns as defences. They focused on a HUUUUUUUUUGE navy
The Keyes manoeuvre would be an amazing watch.
This is one of my favorite channels of all time, keep up the good work Eck
Never heard of this channel and this is my first video i have seen by you. You have made this visually amazing to follow and didnt waffle on too much. Subbed.
Sweet, more battle analysis. You should make up some of your own battles with interesting space tactics you come up with.
Some suggestions:
- Battle for Coruscant (CIS vs Republic)
- Invasion of Terra (Imperium of Man vs Traitor legions)
- Battle over the Ark (Swords of Sanghelios vs Covenant)
Eckhart your channel and videos are amazing!!!I always watch ur videos whenever I get free time especially since I’m a HALO fan!Amazing work💯🔥🔥
Thanks for doing this eck I wanted this vid for awhile
Good video Eckharts, and great new series, but i must say in regards to the halo lore you used you missed out on a few factors
Namely the fact that you take everything Lord Hood says as fast, when in fact its been all but confirmed that he tends to exaggerate, just look at the official numbers of the Battle of Reach and compare it to Lord Hoods statement from Halo 2.
That also gets me thinking, why not do a battle breakdown of the Battle of Reach.
All ships present at the battle of coruscant (or just one side vs the byss defense fleet during shadow hand (with or without the planet itself) this is like my 100th try
Master Mickman suprised he hasn't done this yet
Have to say really enjoying this series I had watched afew of your video's in the past but only recently subbed. keep up the good work, Also your outro is amazing.
I don't think I'm going to tire of seeing that cute dogo!
EckhartsLadder, good video as always. Your Battle Breakdown videos are my new favorite. Another Halo battle I would suggest is the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV. You could talk about how Capt. Keyes defeated a small Covenant force which included two frigates and a destroyer using the keyes loop maneuver and then chased off the remaining carrier. You can then detail the second part of the battle including 50 UNSC ships against 20 or so Covenant vessels and how the station Cradle sacrificed itself to defend the fleet. Just a simple suggestion as its one of my favorite scifi battles. Also love the outro!
Do an explanation about the battle of reach and how the covenant won but only through so many numbers considering reach had only 12 defense platforms
Spartans (Halo) vs N7 (Mass Effect) and UNSC Marines (Halo) vs System Alliance Marines (Mass Effect)
100% American Buffalo spartans beat the N7 any day
Jara I want to agree, but then the N7 and many other inhabitants of the Mass Effect universe have space magic working for them.
Ethan Wagner if you mean Biotics yeah you are right with that
Jara yeah, I'm talking about the Biotics.
Ethan Wagner don’t forget that the mass effect universe also has tech that the UNSC has yet to deployed on a wide scale
Honestly one of my favorite channels, you rock Eck
These videos are sick please keep these going!
That second Covenant Fleet that showed up was a brute fleet.
So they'd attack the remanders of the first Elite Fleet.
Since you’ve done the battle of Earth, please do the Battle of Installation 00 since given the odds against the Sangehelli were pretty stacked.
Brute Ships! Staggered line, Shipmaster they outnumber us three to one!
A05 ODST Then it's a fair fight
all ship fire at will, Burn their mongol hides
All Cruiser fire at will.
Burn the Mongrel Hides
Nice video, from the theme to its narration I surely enjoyd it a lot!
These videos are really good, love em. Would like to see more battles from the Halo book series.
Halo's Battle of Sigma Octanus IV
TheRed Hawk Yeeeeees, Keyes badass loop :))) I want that!!
Battle of Reach
Battle Of Courasnt
OneFaded Gunner *Coruscant
Croissant*
Just a random Doge Delicious
The series is goning amazing so far keep up the good work
Loving this new series so far. I was wondering if you could cover some battles from Star Wars Legends, maybe like Battle at Rakata Prime or even some battles from the Thrawn Campaign. Those would be interesting!
Do a unsc marathon class cruiser vs a venator
the unsc did well to hold out the month that earth was under attack and this was soon after the battle of reach as well witch took out their heavyest defended planet out side of earth ( hint hint a good battle break down for ya ) and they only had the weakest ships in the navy left to defend earth i think they could of done better if they did more planing for deference for the battle not just have their fleet sitting in one spot when the attack came
Love this. More halo battle videos like this please!
That outro Tho XD love your vids keep up the great work
That MAC gun can put a clean round right through a covenant capital ship.
Daniel Heggem quoting Johnson when he tells Chief about the MAC guns.
Sealand Ball Actually the Super MAC doesn’t just penetrate, it utterly shatters Covenant warships into a million pieces.
DickingBimbos read my reply to Daniel.
Nothing is getting threw here in one piece. Haha
But technically the Energy Shielding would block it, right? Otherwise Samuel-034s sacrifice was all for nothing.
The battle of coursant if it can be maneged
Thanks for this I have been waiting years to this exactly battle
Holy shit, I love this tactical stuff going off. Really good.. I've always wanted to know about some of these key points about halo 1 - 3 for years and a 5 minute video answered the questions. Love it!
The battle of salucami in Star Wars the clone wars
Ancient humanity [Halo] vs Imperium of man [40k]
GreaterHalo06 we don't know enough about ancient humanity to know but if there on pare with the forerunners than humanity would win
GreaterHalo06 DAOT humanity and Halo humanity would be more comparable imo.
Despite the Halo humans being basically a Spess muhreens civilisation on the biological level, they only got around 20k worlds, and DAOT humans for sure got way more worlds than the actual imperium (wich is already around one million) and pretty much all of them being hive cities equivalent instead of crappy feral/medieval worlds.
The only problem is that we don't know that much about both of them, but we know for sure that they are both greater than any filthy xeno scum plaguing the milky way
Ancient humanity was able to fight on par with the forerunners but they we're fighting the flood at the same time and they we're losing worlds to the parasite and resources and the forerunners outnumbered them but despite this they we're on par and held out for a Melina
The Imperium is fighting like eight different hostile alien races at the same time as well as literal gods and their empowered zealots.
all of this on a galactic scale, and they're holding their own.
Imperium all the way.
SkyTech RTS Emperor Protects
I love these battle breakdowns
Been watching your channel for over a year and even short videos like these are so informative and engaging good shit ecks
I was kinda confused about the covenant cruisers, Ik that the truth and reconciliation was a ccs class but were the ships in halo 3 ccs class or ccr class, and same question with halo reach and halo 2 and ODST
Joshua Purdy There are a few different types of CCS class cruisers.
A05 ODST I’m mostly just talking about the size, yes ccs class can be varied but as long as they are the same size the count as one ship to me, so I’m just asking what ships are what in the bungie halo games
Joshua Purdy
You mostly see CCS cruisers, carriers and super carriers, destroyers and corvettes.
Can the UNSC and the Covenant survive and beat the Angel Zeruel from Evangelion on Earth when the Covenant first attacked? Zeruel appears out of nowhere in this and is laying waste to everything and everyone that it sees and gets in it's way while trying to look for Lilith on this version of Earth to start the next Impact
Survive? Yes
Beat? No, not from what I was hearing from it's feats
Hey Ecks! Love your channel and especially these videos! Think you could make Admiral Cole's last stand? I'd love to see that!
I love the new outro man, its pretty darn funny.
Could Godzilla Earth invade the Unsc Earth from Halo universe?
I love this new series and you should do either the Battle of Sigma Octanus 4 or the Fall of Reach for your next video
I like watching your videos because they are so well made keep up the good work.
MCRN DONNAGER VS BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
Donnager: full deployment of corvettes
Galactica: full deployment of vipers and raptors
Maybe put a situation where boarding parties are involved and compare colonial marines vs martian marines
teres a thing, orbital mechanics. that changes EVERYTHING so you could choose to have oribtal mechanics into play, the expanse does that and the donnaguer wins or no orbital mechanics and having the galáctica win. whats why they arent very used
The time war in doctor who
This just answered like half of my questions. Lol, thx!
Love your work!!! Have you considered explaining the mandalorian war the whole campaign?? Before and after Revan intervine?
Why is this guy implying we lost the battle when it was in fact the Covenant that got folded?
And Earth is not a colony lol.
I love Halo. But I have so many problems with how incompetent everyone is when it comes to any tactics. Even with neural implants. For being 500 years into the future, the tech and abilities are extremely limited, todays US military is already more advanced than the UNSC (minus the ships). Normally in the Halo universe, all parties involved believe it’s a great idea to group all of your ships and soldiers right together where an explosive could just simply take everything out. And also what’s insane to me is the greatest AI ever made besides bias, Cortana, has and fulfills about the same role and duties as R2-D2 up until the 4th Halo game. One more addition is there is an absolute insane amount of lore and grandiosity for a ship, group, person, thing, that was only on screen for 10 seconds and died. A LOT of people die in Halo, almost more than what’s necessary to the point where it doesn’t add any value to the brand or story. It also took 30 years for chief to join Doom Guy and Metroid for a grapple hook, although I’m sure the only reason that happened was for economic reasons, not originality or story. Which is now standard for 343. I’d love to see this series do better. But unfortunately rich jackasses who own your gaming company don’t care about you or fan base enough to put effort or even pay their workers effort to do a better job. Anyways yeah, little rant over. Still love Halo
Yesssss!!! I love it eck! Could you do Reach next?
That was GREAT please I need more Halo vids: how about the battle of Reach?
Earth isn’t a colony. That’s all I have to say. Thank you.
But earth wasn't glassed and the covenant was falling apart *AND I FINISHED THE FIGHT*
Hey Eck! Amazing Video, as per usual! This is Like my 4th Attempt, but could you Cover the Battle of Yavin 4 during the Imperial Civil War Era? Have fun on your trip!
Great video love the halo video.
holy mother Russia Earth got shafted.
Kinda funny how 343 was like “ya humanity went from being almost completely obliterated with 4 ships left to massive, high tech fleets with a new Infinity class ship and just going back to the way things were in less than a few years.” Like wtf 343 where’s the realism? This isn’t some star wars “do whatever tf you want” bs. And also I’m tired of people being so centered on the Master Chief. Like ya I get it, he’s cool, but he’s not why Halo is cool.
Caiden Root Theres a reasonable reason to why and how they built those ships if you bothered to actually look it up instead of assuming they built it because that's what the Devs wanted. Also it never went back to the way it was, they were still on the look out for any covenant activity and still dealing with the elites. And why would the unsc just sit back and wait for another attack? It's just common sense that you would want to rebuild your entire fleet as soon as possible. You do know that they still had plenty of outer planets left that were left untouched right? You're only thinking of earth here and even still mostly everything on the ground was left alone, the only things that were really destroyed were the home fleets buy other than that, earth was mostly fine and still intact. Things just don't stay the same for ever, so it does make sense the unsc would end up making more advanced ships. You're the one not making any sense here, not the game.
Mars Bars Well when you say it like that it sounds dumb. I’m saying there is no way they had the resources/infrastructure/technology to be able to recover that fast. I’m saying that 343s problem with their saga is not considering realism. This isn’t Star Wars where there are space battles with millions of ships, and this plot-determining “force.” This game universe is so special because of how real it is, and 343 is ruining that. A broken machine-like super soldier wouldn’t fall in love with an A.I. The UNSC had no way to manufacture nearly forerunner levels of tech after almost all their infrastructure being destroyed. Yes, I know a few things were untouched, but hey were mostly outer colonies that barely even supported the UNSC & the UEG.
Caiden Root Yeah there's actually lore that explains everything you're complaining about. There were not even mentions of having millions of ships is the game I don't know where you got that. Actually, bungie intended for master chief to be in love with cortana. It's kind of obvious already if you're an actual Halo fan that played all the halo games, it was obvious from the very beginning. If you want to know how master chief fell in love with cortana if you didn't already know, go read the lore or actually pay more attention to the game. You know, the war with the covenant lasted for almost 50 years and the unsc would have used that time to reverse engineer tech they found from both covenant and forerunner. I don't really know how or where you come up with these statements like "forerunner level tech" the game did not even say anything about that. A better question is how would you know anything about forerunner tech to be able to compare them to unsc ships? Because the last time I checked, there's almost no mention of that in the game and if you're a hard core halo fan and you know a lot about the forerunner, you would know the unsc is still very far off from being as advanced as the forerunners, REALLY REALLY FAR off so don't go mentioning the unsc has forerunner level tech ever again. Your whole argument is basically just you assuming things and most of them are already explained in the game or just common sense. I mean the questions you're asking are quite obvious already. The unsc actually had ship yards on outer planets and how the hell do you know that there weren't any unsc bases that were off planet? Again, you're just assuming things. Another thing is, the covenant left earth almost untouched, the only thing that were really destroyed during the invasion were the unsc fleet and that's about it, pretty much everything else on earth was in tact. Also, how do you know they have completely recovered? For all we know they might only have a few hundred ships and still haven't reached full strength yet so that's just a guess on your part.
Mars Bars not all of that stuff is canon. The million ships thing was a reference to sci fi universes without logic like star wars. You insulting me every other sentence isn’t making yourself any more convincing. When I say near forerunner level tech, I mean stuff like the things you see in H5 even from the UNSC are much more advanced than what makes sense. I have been playing Halo since 2003, so yes I have played all the games and beaten them on all difficulties. I realized the “bond” between chief and cortana, but 343 has escalated it into some twilight level of sappy, melodramatic soap opera bs
Caiden Root They're not insults though, they're just facts and common sense I keep telling you but you seem to just ignore them. I don't really see how you can measure the level of tech just by looking at them. This is a game where anything is possible, exactly what part does not make sense to you in Halo 5?
Been on a Halo Lore binge for the past few days. Perfect update
Nice video man and I never that how much UNSC lot all defend. But it was great good for man kind
Sangheli honor guard vs a Jedi knight
The Jedi have the force, so the force could be used against them which is a severe disadvantage
It's Ya Boi Daniel obi wan had the force and yet he'd didn't use it to jus end the fight with pre vizla
He didn't, was he fighting to the death or no? If he wanted to then he could have killed him using the force but he didn't because Jedi aren't very well known for being murderers, unlike the Sith
Also Obi Wan DID use the force during that battle to push him away, and Obi Wan was winning that fight and Pre Vizsla told some warriors to kill Obi Wan, which I don't want to spoil too much for anyone who hasn't seen that Episode of the Clone Wars,
It's Ya Boi Daniel which is why I pitted a Jedi instead of a sith against a elite honor guard Jedi don't possess the deadlier force abilities such as force choke or force lighting
Could Godzilla Earth invade Starkiller base please 112th attempt!
I wonder if Godzilla can survive a direct hit from the super laser. If they bait Godzilla into firing position they might be able to kill him or atleast send him floating off into space.
It would be cool to see this kind of visualizations in future vs videos.
Congrats dude! This video was posted by 343 on a Halo Waypoint update! =)
Glad to see all your hardwork get recognized!
