For how high the attrition was in this event I did an amazing job of not perishing, until the ODST team assassinated me on the mission screen that is. Hope you guys enjoy!
I enjoyed
The intro is absolute fucking gold
@@85675 Next video is probably another SCP operation c:
@@85675 is ONI the equivalent of the SCP Foundation in the Halo Universe bc I think they need to take you
These videos are the best. Ignis squad has the biggest Halo Marine energy.
Really makes you appreciate that perspective of the ordinary foot soldier
The fact that the marines were, for the most part completely overwhelmed by the Elites is both true to the canon of Halo, and the incompetence of Ignis.
And we wouldn't have any other way
It isn't incompetence, they were sticking to the canon /s
@@lyamschuss8786 have you seen any other ignis ops? Their whole motif is incompetence and I mean that in the most endearing way possible
canonical incompetence
@@sealteamtwix
Like when they are imperial guard
"Situation Report!"
"Uncontrolled crying"
*Typical Ignis Op*
The translation of his crying is “I just saved fifteen percent or more on car insurance, AND WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!”
It's not a proper Ignis Op unless there's emotional trauma, and high casualties.
7:32.
with how the Halo ops tend to run there's either a 50/50 percent chance one of the members turns into Chips Dubbo mid-way into the thing and goes absolutely mad, or the enemy AI decides to say "Hey lets do that thing we did on Reach again" and fucking deletes squads left and right lol
Yea
I've yet to see one where someone goes Chips Dubbo.
@@WisdomThumbs There was that time Bean walked up to a tank and it exploded and he was unharmed.
*frigate smoothly glides and lays waste to everything during mission
*end of the mission: frigate do the break dance*
Plot twist
It was an innie frigate sent to loot the ONI facility before the Arcadia fleet arrived.
@@georgezwick3717 it was that one frigate they stole using a forklift.
7:33 “can I get a situation report?”
*Pained, trauma-induced sobbing*
“Thank you!”
Yep, sounds like a classic Ignis op!
"Mac rounds? In atmosphere!"
"One way to get there attention.
Hold on to your teeth people"
Gatta love the quotes in reach 😂
"Where does he get off calling demolition of pri... *GETS REMOVED FROM CHAT* "
Imagine being a marine and fighting the Brutes on Earth, “OH I’M SORRY CORPORAL, WHAT WOULD *YOU* DO AGAINST 8 FOOT TALL TON GORILLAS!?!”
With GUNS ¡¡ALIEN GUNS!!
Go Marbo on their asses.
9 feet and 1 metric ton in full armor
And in Cannon ate people.
Wasn't it the UNSC Army that was primarily defending Earth and New Mombasa?
i love the frigate and everyone falling in love with it immediately upon arrival.
I love how the moment the mission complete screen appeared every single one of its guns turned against the marines
One of my Favorite ship designs in any Sci Fi
i was just WATCHING and i fell in love with it.... she was just that pretty
@@gaiusmarius4209 same!
"It's not an A10 but it'll do"
Speaking of, how do they have a functioning frigate?
I love how the ODSTs actually seem really calm and collected compared to the Marines who are shitting their pants.
Pretty standard since ODST's are literally made to die
There is dialogue in Halo 5 on meridian on the space elevator that is about Buck being mad about retreating because he was an ODST and ODST's don't retreat until dead or they completed the mission also for insertion they fall in a pod from orbit at thousands of degrees risking the destruction of their pod and being blown to smithereens by flak so its no surprise they would act like this.
@@Bmuenks31 so you're telling me they're the kriegsmarine of halo?
@@OsnoloVrach yep
@@Bmuenks31 based
@@Bmuenks31literally the only reason they aren't burning up in atmosphere is literally a thin layer protecting it and once that punctures they get fried instantly
The frigate arriving was beautifully timed and looked like it was straight out of that one scene from reach. Simply epic.
"Mac Rounds? In atmosphere?"
The terrifying part is that if this was Reach instead of being saved this is when the frigate is blown up and a second super carrier starts unloading ground forces
@@someguy1365 Hang on to your teeth people.
@@nathanieljohnson5430 I was thinking of the section earlier when Six destroys the first AA gun and Grafton flies overhead and wrecks not only the Covies near you on the cliff but also starts raining fire on the main battlefield.
I know it's just a game, but after falling back that much and looking up to see your ship in the sky it was kinda awe inspiring
Agreed
(Tails wakes up) " where am!?"
Ralof: "oh, your finally awake. You were caught in that imperial ambush like us and that horse thief over there"
With the exception of the stupidity and cursed dialogue, this seems about right for how a non-Spartan ground defense against Covvies would go XD
Also the way Haunting's body folded when he died was profoundly disturbing and will likely be visiting me in my dreams tonight!
Actually, humans did reasonably well against Covvies on the ground. It was usually fight or die, so they frequently inflicted heavy casualties, and if the war was ground combat only, the UNSC would have badly bloodied the Covenant. It’s just that most of the time, ground victories were invalidated by the Covenant retreating to orbit and glassing any human forces they couldn’t beat.
I guess Haunting is an appropriate name
I'm sure some of the stupid gallows humor is also lore accurate as well
@@ZZMonkeysUncleZZ so you could say the covvies had the high ground
@@jimbothegymbro7086 well.., hello there!
I just glad that Tails didn’t kill the Frigate this time.
Also on a different note, a really good name for a ship would be “Wrath of Provins”
"Vengeance of Provins"
"Omen of Provins"
I'm from the actual French town Provins and I'd be proud to serve on a ship by that name
Jay: Howdy! You know what’s Terrifying?
Me: Ignis Corp.
Side note: can we talk about how the Ignis boys are wearing Digital Woodland on a snow map?
Fair. Honestly, fair
Thats the military lol
Winter camo in a winter environment sounds like a logical choice. Hence why Ignis probably didn't do it
@@Digiarcstudio yeah but the military is rarely known for logical choices
"Well you see they'd be looking for winter camo, dumbass"
I love how accurate this battle is portrayed. In the books your most basic-ass Elite can solo a squad of marines. Facing an army like this your only two options would be to have overwhelming numbers on your side or reallyreally good support (such as a frigate coming in from orbit and blasting them.
I'd say realistically a Squad of Marines or even one could take down Elite Minors pretty often until higher ranking ones like the Captain or Ultra come around
@@rubenlopez3364 realistically I think recharging energy shields are op and you would probably need something more like 30 marines per elite lmao
humanity has it bad , with elites already being a pain. imagine what a marine has to put up with facing a chieftain and his pack
@breaking the 4th wall like Actually that's a popular bit of misinformation that's been passed around for years now. In canon, admittedly the older stuff, humanity had a CHANCE on the ground. Whereas space was completely and utterly dominated by the Covenant. For instance, for the majority of the war humans were largely unfamiliar with the Elites. Not because they didn't encounter them but because Elites left next to no survivors in their engagements. Humanity largely fought grunts and Jackals in the early years. Contact Harvest was I believe 1 or 2 out-of-date Brute controlled (but largely manned by grunts & jackals) ships that took the fight to the ground and was a planetary threat. The Fall of Reach shows the Spartans moving through a city that was overtaken by the Covenant. Halo Legends shows the UNSC getting their shit pushed in w/o the aid of Spartans on the ground. The message they were trying to convey was that Humanity was doomed. Even the occasional victory on the ground meant nothing because they would just be glassed from space anyways.
@breaking the 4th wall like oh absolutely that's why they're one of my favorite scifi factions! Sorry I hope I didnt come across as "wELl acTuaLLY" I've just seen people say that UNSC stomped the covenant on the ground before
That frigate emerging was a thing of beauty. A rare moment of pure immersion amid the chaos.
"I just watched it KILL a man" was my absolute favorite quote this time round, the delivery just killed me
also shout out to the returning veteran of "about that beer I owe ya"
My description terrifying is hearing “Jay is commanding this op, if he’s says ‘its fine’ it’s not”
The gameplay and banter makes a better halo tv show than the actual show
Now I want an ArmA III Red vs Blue.
It was a fun op but god i spent 80% dead or in transport back to the front.
that would be how most of these larger scale ops go
that ending was absolutely gorgeous, the muffled finish the fight just really added to it
Gotta love the joy of seeing a frigate appear followed by ludicrous amounts of friendly fire
i like to imagine that when the elites saw that one guy with the foldable chair they were questioning to kill him like
Elite 1: "brother look, that human has some sort of device, shall I kill him?"
Elite 2 "No brother, he is the embodiment of our gods, leave him be."
I just imagine when that frigate shows up, its the same feeling as:
"EXODIA... OBLITERATE!"
Bruh the OG Yiugioh is the best; it hits different, it feels good asf and Nostalgic
3:36 I hear the wonderful EDF Deploys song, lmao.
THE .E D F. DEEEPLOOOOOYS
To protect our Mother Earth from any alien attack!!
@@onwardsumo5189 From vicious giant insects who have once again come back!
Your halo videos are always great,
The humour is on point
The moments are great
Ragdolls are beyond S tier
YELLING
Memes
Great clip material
Lots of references
If I kept listing you would have to read too much
Let’s sing a song…
“To save our Mother Earth from any alien attacks!”
From vicious giant insects who have once again come back.
We’ll unleash all our forces, we won’t cut them any slack
The EDF Deploys!!!
Our soldiers prepared are for any alien threats!
@@kriegertechpriest7011 the navy launches ships, the air force sends their jets
5:46 I love how the warthog basically stopped crashing until you moved out of the way
"I hope you enjoy seeing normal humans trying to hold back an army of elites"
Jay, if I wanted to see normal humans, I wouldn't be *here* now would I?
3:36 the fact that you used an EDF song earned my like.
When that Frigate came in hot and you had the music on 100% that was just . . . _perfection._
honestly would be funnier if they suddenly just got the objective pop up "survive" and get told that the navy ran xD
Good to see that Ignis still can not drive worth shit. But don’t worry, the warthogs are having their handling model changed next patch
Fancy seeing you here Thomas.
How about a Earth defense force inspired op if it's possible in any way?
That would honestly be quite chaotic.
2:50 That was absolutely perfect.
It isn't the weekend until jay says howdy at the start of his video
You know, i love how you guys just are there to chill out and have fun. You take it seriously but also enjoy goofing off. Love to see it
“To defeat your enemy you must…
‘be described as intelligent and utterly unmatched in the art of war!’”
-Sun Tzu

This is why we shouldt teach lizards how to read
Watching Ignis antics is becoming my favorite weekend activity. Jay's pure glee as his friends are dying, in terrible ways, is hella contagious (and probably somewhat unhealthy)..
That BEAUTIFUL sight of the frigate coming in over head was awesome, which turned into the funniest thing ive seen all week at the end!
I love how the general competence of the Marines in this op is about on par with the AI in the actual games
The way the frigate came in was absolutely gorgeous.
They guy who said "MAC rounds?? In low orbit?" is an og
I like how everyone got slaughtered without a spartan present lol
@5:48
That drift into that launched ARMA was funny as hell and also that perfect scream cut tho lol
Fun fact: In halo lore it wasn't uncommon for ODST's to carry folding chairs into battle.
I'm sorry, what?
I’m sorry, what?
Pls explain!?
3:38 from vicious giant insects who have once again come back
The muffled Halo theme implies the Frigate just blasts it through internal speakers, I love it
I loved how professional the ODSTs were compared to... everybody else lol these are awesome keep em coming!
I love that the Paris class managed to come in hella smooth and cinematic like up until the point where the mission ends, and then all bets are off and it acted like a typical Ignis asset lmao
when tails asked if cube world was out yet, i felt that 😭🤣
It's been so long that I almost forgot about that game.
Next we will ask if Portal 3 ever came out...
Tails’ hysterics in this were absolutely hilarious
"To defend our mother Earth from any alien attack,
We'll unleash all of our forces we won't cut them any slack,
The [UNSC] deploys!"
0:02 You know what's even more terrifying? Being an imperial guardsman in warhammer 40k
I love the how Night turns around and almost strikes a pose for the freeze frame
1:50 give that man a medal
The chaos is amazing and makes it seem so authentic people not knowing what's happening and freaking out, it's beautiful
Imagine the hell storm of archer missiles is this ship was lore accurate.
Perfect timing, Jay! Now I can eat my lunch with a smile on my face!
Same
Oh god that Cube World reference just hit the nostalgia button hard
Unhinged! I believe that is understatement of the year
6:01 bruh that explosion was just insult to injury
PLEASE post the vods for these ops. They're so good!
Jay's editing and the incompetence of ignis will never not crack me up
I found your channel a week ago. In one week i've watched 47 videos lol. Keep up the good work man. Both you and your clan are hilarious and I've had a great time catching up on your backlog of content.
I love how immediately upon the mission end screen, the frigate just hard-cut pointed its MAC right at the ground to get in on the post-victory friendly fire.
This even better and more lore accurate than the Parahalo series
This guy is funny and is my favorite arma UA-camr and love his halo vids
This is my favourite Halo video on this channel. Now imagine if they had to deal with all the new content (Hunters, Locust's, etc). 😅
The best part is seeing the frigate and then hearing “people of the common wealth, we are the brotherhood of steel”.
5:54 had me on the FLOOR
This is a realistic halo moment
When i wake up in the morning i like to watch UA-cam while i eat breakfast and this channel is a great one to watch while eating a scrambled egg sandwich yknow? When a new vid of his comes out i wait till morning to watch it for a nice start to the day
The EDF coming in clutch with that Pelican fly by attack XD
5:47 Certified Tails moment.
I liked how the second half of that looked and felt like Assault on the Control Room. Very nice~
I bet every report from Ignis to the UNSC high command is either we got bungled or we bungled them. Awesome video!
5:53 You just had to say it didn't you?
Oh I can NOT WAIT to see Cypher's video on this op.
We laugh at Ignis' great efforts to stem the xenos.
But lore wise, this is fairly accurate to how battles went vs the Covenant.
I love the professional torture this guy goes through to satisfy our insane thirst of blood
3:34
"Negative, you don't have the payload"
"I have the mass"
"Understood"
Jay's intros getting better and better
The setup for these videos is very good. If these were taken seriously as in-universe battles instead of played out as wacky UA-camr gamer "comedies", they'd be really cool.
"can I get a situation report?"
*cries uncontrollably*
The almost perfectly choreographed walking of your chairman to the Wide Putin song was *chef's kiss*.
This was bloody great and the Frigate flying in was amazing.
Thank you Jay and i hope you have a great week :D
man it must be nice to occasionally get a spartan on your side, in the 19th fleet the only time we saw a spartan in recent memory was when it was aimed at us by insurgents
I LOVE THESE VIDEOS BRO KEEP IT UP ❤
Honestly this video is the biggest operation I have seen ever cause the big UNSC frigate and the amount of vehicles and units
That frigate's entrance was beautiful. I shed a tear.
"Wort wort wort."
The Arbiter asked Master Chief calmly.
These must have been the veterans of provins. They held out quite well... until the elites got there.
Also that frigate flying in at the end was the best ending to a ignis op ever.
I love the "howdy!" at the beginning of your videos.
I absolutely love the EDF chant at 3:36. By far my favorite stupid video game series.
I love how instantly everything goes insane once the mission is completed
Elite - WORT WORT WORT AAAGOBUUGA
*TRANSLATION*
About that beer I owed you
9:48 thats truly mind blowing
That frigate showing up instantly restored morale too bad the mission ended there though I'd have loved to have seen more wild cheering and suddenly Ignis pushing back the aliens with the frigate's help! ^.^
