Halo Theory: How the Gravity Hammer Works! | Gnoggin

- Опубліковано 20 лют 2017
- A Halo theory about the coolest melee weapon! The simple answer of course is "future tech gravity manipulation" but many scientists are convinced that is impossible for a device such as this. So how could the gravity hammer work in the real world?

Okay, now do a theory on how the Pillar of Autumn houses a path from the engine room to the hanger that is longer than the ship itself.
The same way the Winding Woods and the Haina desert work. A f*cking rift in the time-space continuüm.
That's confirmed to be non-canon and done for gameplay only
Incredible Canemian and that part where foehammer was supposed to pick you up. is there really a gap in the ship connected by only one bridge?
Well you see, the nuclear meltdown that was in place rifted two sections of the ship apart at its weak point.
Incredible Canemian time Lord tech
The gravity technology on the Fist of Rukt (the first Gravity hammer, as you put it) was added to the hammer well after the Brutes joined the Covenant. The original hammer was just a large stone head on what amounted to a stick. When Tartarus rose to power, the Prophet of Truth had the Fist of Rukt outfitted with "gravity impellors", making it into the hammer we see in Halo 2. Other gravity hammers used the Fist as a template.
EDIT: Still, good video and fun to watch :)
oooh lol, that makes more sense XD
Halo Canon I was thinking the same thing
Halo Canon Yeah, I always suspected the Jiralhanae weren't capable of developing gravity manipulation.
@@houselightkell I mean they're not exactly retarded. If they weren't so warlike they could figure it out.
@@GAZAMAN93X well that's a bit hard to say really. I mean even humans have very little chance at figuring out gravity manipulation. Remember what happened to the first guy who ever suggested the doctors wash their hands before delivering babies? He was fired
This video turned out so good! lol! It was so awesome to do another video with Lockstin! :D
Please take a look at the Hunters, and how domesticated hive-minded eels can control tank-like armor.
I. Chrome Actually their worms.
I. Chrome A pair of hunters is colony of worms so when you killed one of them you are literally killing half of them hence why they go berserk when the other die.
they work like the geth from mass effect, they have a kind of hive mind where each of the worms communicate with each other to effectively create a single being
+MaSlothma Ghandi probably a worker, guard, queen or whatever relationship with them so thats actually the normal hive mind for that part
Hunters are worms, not eels
Gnoggin | Talk about the Fuel Rod Cannon. How the hell do those things BOUNCE?
InsayneDaRoss F*CKIN SERIOUSLY
InsayneDaRoss it bounces cause it needs to arm itself before exploding. also cause the magentic fiery plasma casts a field for it to bounce rather than explode
the hydra is right we have/had missiles that would arm itself after a set time after launching. with the fuel rod cannon it most likely measures the distance to what ever it is being pointed at and makes adjustments to when the projectile will be able to explode on impact this would explain why it bounces off thing when firing at something far away but explode instantly when shooting it off near you, like so many have when looking straight down the fist time they used it
InsayneDaRoss I have no clue why they bounce, but fuel rods are pretty much radioactive plasma contained in a magnetic field.
It bounces? why do I get the gun that bounces?

Gnoggin! I didn't know you where a genuine Halo fan!
Cheers! also props to Skoopa92 for helping you out he's great.
lol :D i was just binge watching your videos last night metalhead XD
MetalHeadSpartan ayyyy my favorite halo edgelord!
"we really dont know The Truth for sure, but it cant hurt to Hunt for it"
Hunt the truth season 3 confirmed
i don't know if this is a joke as i just recently finished watching the series but is their going to be season 3?
insomnia nah just a joke, that series doesnt seem to be coming back any time soon, a shame though, it was pretty good
damn it got me so invested in the story. the only other one that got me so invested is Mr Robot
damn i needed more motivation to continue making my halo game.
red vs blue got me started the books kept it alive and the series gave me an idea how glassing actually is like and once i get past making the mechanics of the game i want to add glassing
Wouldn't a Button (a device of the distant future of 2017) suffice for activating the Thrusters on the Hammer? Yeah, you can't realy make one out, but it could be realy small or be inside the grip (like the speculated iPhone finger sensor). Also a second press on the Button or just a impact sensor (also "future" technology) would suffice to activate the Gravitation thingy. Love your vids :3
That would be a simpler solution.
It could even be inside the grip and activated when squeezed.
Nemo Namikaze makes sense people tend to squeeze before they swing so it's not like the welder has to think about it
TheGekey77 Yeah, I just don't get how that justifies the use of a Gyroscope. You couldn't see one in the Hammer, but he thinks it's using a Gyroscope. And he even says that the Brutes are not that intelligent, so why shouldn't they use a Butto... oh right, because they are not inteligent.
Nabeken The previous comment that was posted here was already discussed. Ignore this.
Examine how the Pip-Boy from Fallout works.
Oh, and perhaps do the Plasma Rifle for your next "How Halo Stuff Works" video!
Great video, and the editing is really unique and done quite well. Great job !
I love the little animations in the background they make me understand better :)
For those who wants to know the background music used:
0:25 Thrillseeker 3 by Gustavsson & Sandberg
Next song was Thrillseeker 2 by Gustavsson & Sandberg, again.
4:30 Thrillseeker 1 by Gustavsson & Sandberg
I don't know the last one but it kinda sounds like Really Slow Motion made it. I could be wrong coz they're not the only ones who make those kind of music.
How about a Gunblade? How can it shoot a bullet and still work as a sword (functionally without breaking the chamber). I kinda figured it out, but a video explaining it to the masses would be great. It could be Squall's, Seifer's, Lightning's or maybe the trio from Advent Children, Yazoo, Kadaj, and Loz. Since I'm sure they would all work the same, but Light's is more complicated since in can fold in on itself.
Thanks for considering my suggestion Lockstin! This was a extremely good video and helps show how these insane weapons work
really neat video, I especially love your own take on RvB, I also really enjoyed your little pop culture references littered through the video (Shockwave from G1 Transformers, Sonic Boom Sonic etc)
That Halo: Hunt the Truth reference toward the end with the music and everything was perfect.
In the lore, the Brutes had achieved Tier 4 technology as according to the Forerunner's Technological Achievement Scales. This was the Space-faring age, when a species can travel away from their homeworld. This tier was where the Jiralhanae had reached, until their warlike nature got the better of them, and they would enter a very bloody civil war, which would set them all the way back to Tier 7 [neolithic or at least pre-industrial].
Congrats on 400K Lockstin!
i love the editing in this video!
4:27 Decimus' Warlords in Halo Wars 2 also have the pull mechanic in their hammers while Decimus himself has a dedicated weapon to do that.
I love the editing in this video about as much as I love the Gravity Hammer...which is a lot :]
lol thanks! :D
How bout ya do "HOW ON EARTH DOES CLOUD CARRY AROUND THAT MASSIVE BUSTER SWORD"
Very awesome vid. If you want to do any more of these, I'd love to hear about the Covenant Cabrine and the Fuel Rod Launcher. I believe they work fairly similarly, so iDK if it'd be too hard to do a two-fer.
Awesome!! >w< The part with the characters and hammers moving around and talking was funny, too!
I think including negative radiation pressure as part of the theory on the attraction could be interesting. I'm not familiar with the Halo series, but it there seems to be some light when the hammer is used to pull things.
The Snazzgun used the the Ork Flashgitz in Warhammer 40,000 - Or Ork technology in general. This is what I want you to cover next.
The most amazing thing about this is how much thinking actually goes into the design of the weapon. If someone told me to make a warhammer, I'd just put a big blob on a stick.
Next weapon you should do is the Fuel Rod Cannon from Halo 1,2,3, and Reach, and why it bounces and why the projectile changes midair
we have/had missiles that would arm itself after a set time after launching. with the fuel rod cannon it most likely measures the distance to what ever it is being pointed at and makes adjustments to when the projectile will be able to explode on impact this would explain why it bounces off thing when firing at something far away but explode instantly when shooting it off near you, like so many have when looking straight down the fist time they used it
reason a lot theory channels that do do halo weapons don't really cover it much is because besides a few things it is easiest to understand and figure out
Lockstin, I know you wanna make more stuff that isn't Pokemon. MAKE THESE AGAIN! Although, there was a new one just released.
how does the Spartan laser work
the halo wiki should give you the answer you need
Hey when did you hit 400k? Congrats on that.
I've got a few suggestions for weapons for the next video
-Mass Shotgun (form Enter the Gungeon)
-Technology X (form The Binding of Isaac) or any other of the Technology items.
-Xenopopper (from Terraria)
How about the Fuel Rod Launcher that both the Hunters and Grunts have that can also be affixed to a stand to become an anti-vehicle weapon? Or even the energy sword.
Do a theory on the medics medagun
The Red Knight it is physically impossible to actually work especially because it's way ahead of it's time
That... was surprisingly simpler that I anticipated. Cool.
Also, I feel like you should be on RvB. XD
This editing is sick
Little lorebyte that supports the "Maybe they did invent gravity powers" component: The Brutes are a race constantly at war with themselves, and forever in a state of both technological advancement and regression. For instance, there are many recorded instances of Brutes discovering interstellar travel, then warring themselves down to such a point that space travel was a thing of the past. It's possible that in the past, Brutes were able to make Gravity Hammers, and leading up to their discovery by the Covenant, find an old Gravity Hammer, reverse engineer it, and make new ones.
Alternatively, the Gravity Hammer could follow the same ideas as the Brute Plasma Rifle in Halo 2, where it is existing Covenant tech that was modified by the Brutes to suit their needs. This isn't too far fetched, as the Ghosts, Spectres, and Wraiths all utilize some form of anti-gravity technology, inversing the effects so instead of levitating above the ground, it pushes nearby objects away, is within the realm of plausibility.
this is awesome, can you maybe the beam rifle or any forerunner gun? that would be so awesome
But how does the Golf Club from Halo Reach work?
do a theory on the duel disk from yugioh
Holograms. I remember a long time ago that the duel disks could send out hologram generators for "exciting" duels.
Now, I have an idea. How about you do a video on how the Concussion Rifle or the Energy Sword work, or why the UNSC downgraded their pistols over time? Great sciencey theory, by the way! Good luck in your future videos, Dr. Knoggin!

I like your new intro! it looks very cool.
G.N.O.H.G=Gnoggins Non Official Headquarters of Gaming
Did not expect a halo video haha cool
Actually, the Fist of Rukt was just a stone cudgel before the Jiralhanae joined the Covenant. The San'shyuum (prophets) upgraded it once the Jiralhanae were officially absorbed into the empire.
The inside of the hammer during the inspect animation looks a lot like speakers, which could definitely be used to produce a shock wave (and a sonic boom in the most direct way possible) as well as a build up and release of internal pressure.
Research the Torque Bow next! I could never figure out how a normal, if highly advanced bow, could shoot a seemingly normal arrow, that if pulled back long enough, will explode on you(or if drawn for a much shorter time, its intended target). And there's the fact on how it can sever heads.
Gnoggin did you get the background at 0:21 from Subnautica?
awsome loved this one
Nice vid, as for the weapon I want: How bout the Mega Buster and the Variable Weapons System. The VWS is literally just a small electronic chip thing, but how does it actually create whole new objects or blasts with just that and a lemon shooting buster?
a study of the dual helix sword would be amazing.
a video on the Drifter's saber from Hyper Light Drifter would be cool
The Rodin (weapon) from Bayonetta. Or maybe something on how weapons get switched out in Ratchet & Clank; the older games feature some sort of transformational animation, so there's that.
Personal hypothosis I've stuck to since its inception.
The gravity hammer has a large mass of metal in the head, probably iron, and I would guess around 200-500 pounds, as this weight is easy to carry for both Spartans and Covenet.
The user starts a swing and turns on 3 magnets towards the front end the head, the striking area. This accelerates the metal towards the magnets and as they impact a metal sheet inside(to protect the magnets) they accelerate the hammer as well.
There is a guy who made a Captain America Shield which I would use as a perfect example of what the hammer would look like on the inside.
This would also explain the pushing and pulling, as the last part of this video would be perfectly reasonable with this build.
Can you make a theory about Samus's grapple beam
That was really good.
How about a video on how the Halos or the Composers work?
Composers arent canon, 343 aint canon, just an old spartan 2s fever dream, hes still asleep :,(
If the offer is still valid, I would love to see a dissection of the grass spike thrower from Mass Effect 2 and 3. That gun doesn’t get enough love. It doesn't even have to be a full video, I would just be grateful for the response.
Take care, and be blessed.
This was great! the only thing that I'd challenge is the jet on the back. There could just be a button on the hilt. otherwise, great vid.
Also: do the energy sword.
Gnoggin did some kind of machinima! That was unexpected!
Also: Congrats for 400k!
Great theory, but I'm leaning more towards the explanation that the covenant forced the engineer slave to create to gravity hammer using ancient forerunner secrets.
3:24 lol nice TF reference.
Ooo! How about any of the Drudge weaponry from The Conduit/Conduit 2?
hey,
could you do one on halo's ma5 assault rifle how the big diffrence on mag size could be achieved...
Greetings from Holland.
Much enjoy such Halo.
Do a video on the arch nemesis of the gravity hammer, the Energy Sword!
If I remember correctly, the Brutes created the Chopper and Prowler vehicles from Halo 3, and these vehicles are hovercrafts, so I wouldn't say it's that big of a stretch that the Brutes figured out gravity manipulation.
RednekGamurz They stole those vehicles
Just want to correct something. While the Fist of Rukt did far pre-date the Covenant it was upgraded by the Prophets when the Brutes joined. Gravity Hammers are just regular war hammers prior to the Covenant.
Great stuff. How about Nero's sword from DMC4
Well what about the "Grinder" or the "Tartarus's Gavel?" The "Grinder" makes a giant gravity vortex and the "Tartarus's Gavel" has a ranged blast when swung. EXPLAIN PLS!
also could we get an episode on how the hell that lock-on plasma grenade launcher thing from Reach works?
ooh, ya some req variants are quite crazy, lol i should look into them!
Definitely my favourite weapon in all of Halo.
How can a keyblade cut a skyscraper in half?
lockstin i got a great thing for you to look into, could magnito use diamagnetic forces to movie humans or effect humans in anyway
Pretty Please do a video on how the Monado works!
For whatever reason I was thinking the GH (gravity hammer) had a black hole system inside that ball, like the voids tear and the delta beam rifle, but then none of that would make sense
i would like you to examine the covies cleansing beam from all the
Halos
More please
A theory on the Monado from Xenoblade would be pretty neat
You cannot magnetise the iron in your blood, it is bonded to form haemoglobin and so looses its magnetic properties.
Still a great video though.
I assumed the gravity hammer worked through microscopic black hole manipulation, thus the "singularity" ability of the Brute Chieftain in Halo Wars 1.
Well , through Halo's history, the Brutes have constantly risen and fallen through the technological tiers, so it would make sense for Tartarus (the leader of the entire Brute race) to posses such a powerful relic of his people. SO, yeah, I'd say it's a safe assumption that the Brutes did indeed develop the gravity-magnetism technology. Planet of the Jiralhanae.
I was just watched the halo wars 2 ad with the car dealership.....now a halo theory on the epic gravity hammer. I never played halo in awhile. Most of the time I occasionally play at a friends place who has an Xbox. Using it to crush flood, pesky grunts......the one who had the hammer first.
A better explanation for the thrusters is using a accelerometer where moved fast enough it will turn on. This is already commonly used even in headphones
Huh I was just thinking about your theory of the that needle gun thing the other day
I'd like to see an analysis of the Plasma Rifle from Halo (As well as the other weapons that also use plasma) and an analysis of the Pulse Pistols used by Tracer from Overwatch. I get the feeling that they might both use similar tech to produce the projectiles
Also, after doing some quick research, the Brutes didn't equip the Fist of Rukt with the Gravity Hammer tech, it was equipped to it after Tartarus became the Chieftain of the Brutes and inspired the design of the other Gravity Hammers.
Hey gnoggin, I'm a huge fan of ratchet and clank, and I was wondering if you could examine one of the shape-shifting weapons or the suck cannon.
If you aim with the gravity hammer in halo 5 your spartan pushes a button, which may activate the thrusters
You can also use it to kill the brute while the brute is wielding it... by the way it does require another weapon, basically you use the downswing to boost your jump.
love the video but I hate to n the one to ask but were can I see the name of the music used
The Brutes may be in a dark age, or they have a class/caste or scientist and engineers who are probably heavily suppressed or even eliminated, which would lead to their dark age.
But an extreme mastery of electromagnetism makes more sense, and would be wildly more energy efficient that artificially generating gravity.
good video!
I think for the thrusters there's a small trigger, same for the shockwave... a remote detonation of some sort, which would explain why it has limited uses but that's what I think
There was a 4th part you left out that is perhaps the most important. How does the user not also get hurt/killed by said shock wave? Is it directional?
another theory. that ball in the head spins perpendicular to the side of the gravity hammer and when it stops the centrifugal force slams it into whatever youre hitting. kinda like if you left a chuck wrench in a chuck and it started spinning and you stopped it it would keep going, or another example would be if youre on a marygoround and it stops suddenly youd keep going smashing into things
The first resistance game the post weapons are pretty good
please do a fuel rod
"If you like Halo, here's a video about Metroid." I see what you did there.
Hey look you got 400k subs. congrats
if you look on some of the older hammars they have a lever so that could be the trigger and maybe it uses the same anti gravity technology from the banshee
