Best series they currently have going. Would love to see them do the entire game (also I hear there’s something special if you watch the cutscenes, no spoilers though lol).
Heads up, the assault rifle's explosion isn't on the last bullet. There's a heat gauge on the ammo counter, it overheating is what sets it off. It just so happens that 110-ish out of 120 rounds is how much it takes to overheat.
@@ASCARNAZ You also forgot the reason that Keyes kills himself in the flood video cutscene because he's using the backwards pistol and kills himself which is the sole reason there's no rescue mission.
If they do only 1 level per video that's at least 3 away. And Assault is a super long level, probably 2 videos for that. ... 4 weeks until we see "the moment"
They might miss it. I saw it somewhere else and almost missed it, but what I did see I was confused about. It took a few rewatches to understand what actually happened.
Yeah, when you do the speedrunning trick where you use a triple grenade jump (or in this case blunderbuss) to skip a few floors, it messes up the loading sequence of the level a little bit and causes it to end at that room rather than at the hangar. Which makes it extra handy for speedrunning, actually.
I can't believe ABBA happened at the end. I was amazed with how many D20s they've thrown they hadn't seen that yet. Also I hope they get the flying warthog.
Check every single weapon you see, most weapons have a few variations. I hope they find the other plasma rifle(s) AND the special melee "they" have. Also there's several warthog variants, I think the best one both looks normal before you get in and is only in D20s (Ray got it this level)
The irony is it’s just the normal Warthog that you can get in. It’s spawns normally on its own. I was so deeply saddened they did not see the other plasma rifle.
@@kirascendant I was talking about the third plasma rifle and the extra arm. And the fact when you melee, it shows you meleeing laying with a fourth arm
Yeah, screw making content more convenient for people who already watch your videos. Just make sure the algorithm is happy, cuz that's not gonna change, ever. Funny thing is, after I unsubbed I haven't seen a video pop up from them so not putting numbers in their titles is really helping them out. Guess I'll just check back in a week or so for more halo.
@@AdamxKH I doubt it's helping much. But there's a lot more than just numbering episodes that is going in to why they're lucky to get 1-200k views on a video that would have gotten millions 5 years ago. It's funny, back in the day when they would say things like, "tell the audience to screw themselves", I laughed. Boy did I not know how far they'd take the joke. Lol
@@PoserPosse hes on about the red objective arrow which im pretty sure was pointing to the wrong thing since they did a huge skip and the arrow didnt seem to update
I like how Michael spoke quietly when Gavin was sniping the sleeping grunts. I love it when a game gets so fun that you can't help but play along with the setting. This is joy, and I treasure it.
I would love if they used the fully charged plasma pistol at some point in an open level, instead of just never doing it because Gav kiled them with it in a Hallway
The only Achievement Hunter series thats worth watching. This and the F**kface and Facejam podcasts are the only rooster teeth productions worth looking forward to imo.
I’m gonna be real bummed if we don’t get more of this series, thought it was gonna be a weekly deal but after 3 weeks I’m getting worried… Edit: starting to think this series is dead before it even really got started :( I’m officially bummed I was super hyped
@@GabePuratekuta It was just a random name Gavin gave the pink grunts in the first episode. Much like the multitude of names they came up with for the enemies in the LASO series.
Cant say enough how amazing these are to watch! Feels so much like the old AH Halo days/Lets plays, For god sake i hope these get pumped out insanely fast :D cant wait untill the next one, and felt it took waaaay to long from first video to this one :D with how amazingly good they are :D more more more, and faster faster faster :D
Why has it been more than a month since the last cursed halo video? Each video in this series has more views than any other video posted in the last 6 weeks. Like what excuse is there for not continuing this
Lets play doesnt seem to like views anymore. They still have access to most of the people who made them millions of view(Geoff Jack Michael Jeremy Gavin Fredo) and would just have to remove a few annoying peopel and play some fun games and im sure theyd easily be back at 100-300k per video.
Itd be awesome if 343 added some of the cursed stuff into halo infinite. Imagine playing a custom game and finding a blunderbuss, and your friend who doesn't watch any UA-cam doesn't know about it and you just send him flying
Im so glad they got to "see" the nuke d20, even if they didn't directly see it, I've been waiting for it this whole entire time and Im happy one finally went off
The reason the needlers are like that is they're firing snarks from Half-Life. Tiny, bouncy creatures that'll gnaw your legs off! Edit: As for the exploding rifles, take a look at your weapon's ammo counter, on the model itself. It's got an indicator for the weapon's heat level, and exceeding that threshold (indicated by it turning red) equals your weapon exploding.
Hope this comment is helpful for the future, but the battery rifle doesn't explode at end of clip. It explodes when it overheats from sustained fire. There's a new indicator on the rifle itself that indicates it rate of fire (the circle of dots that slowly fills up) and the display will turn red. Once it's fully red from sustained fire, the rifle explodes. So you can use it super effectively with burst fire. :P
Not quite-there's a heat gauge that fills up underneath the ROF circle, and *that's* the indicator for when the gun explodes. You can actually have it at max ROF without exploding as long as you manage the heat right!
So the needler has become the snarker. Snarks were living grenades from the original Half-life that function like the needles do, moving towards anything they're thrown at and biting them for small damage until they explode.
44:06 So the reason the skipped to the end of the level after clearing that room instead of having to run through a few more hallways is because of the massive blunderbuss jump they did earlier in the level. Speedrunners do the exact same thing with a triple grenade jump and because of that skip, it already considers the end of the level "cleared" even if they aren't at the end yet.
Which Gavin should remember since he's done all of the Speedrun Achievements & legendary speedrun times but honestly I don't blame them with how many games they play/ things they do
27:52 to 28:40 : Do they not see the shimmer of the invisible dude? Gavin deliberately aimed away from the invisible elite in favor of the visible grunt, then Michael couldn't figure out why Gavin didn't respawn because the invisible elite was still there and he didn't notice.
1:45 A bow so OP, it shoots rickrolls at its targets. 4:25 Pew! 6:10 Friends share cake. Boo cake. 7:10 Gavin gets BFG'd. 7:40 Collateral gruntage. 10:10 Grunt-nade. 10:30 Gruntsplosion. 11:30 I don't think that was a health pack grenade. 13:40 Gangsta Chief. 15:20 Team Elite is blasting off again! 15:35 Rick Astley sings "Fly me to the moon." 15:50 Hunter uses green jelly cube. It's super confusing! 21:30 More like _blunderboss._ 22:25 So anyway, he started sideblasting. 25:20 That's what she said. 29:30 Gavin: Speedruns. Michael: Speedfaceplants. 31:55 Gavin's Stealth is level 115. 32:50 Pass and shot to goal. 35:45 The chirpocalypse.
I’m not sure if you noticed or not, but the assault rifle (or battery rifle in this) has a heat indicator on it, as well as an indicator for the wind up/fire rate.
"I stand corrected, Lee. They're not mooninites, but human sized fast food icons. We regress the error, regret it sincerely, and are thankful it did not shut down any roads, bridges, trains, or rivers."
Best series they currently have going. Would love to see them do the entire game (also I hear there’s something special if you watch the cutscenes, no spoilers though lol).
Which cutscene? I wanna watch a video of it as i won't be playing the mod
@@ThePagman007 Let's just say that Keyes has a pistol
Completely agree lol I'm loving this
I thinking they're watching, I've noticed cuts
@@Derfla8888 oh man I remember when Ray played this mod.
That ending seems like something that would have been in Red vs Blue:
"...who's playing ABBA?"
*entire world erupts*
Best ending to any video ever.
yeah Knuckles "oh no" taking damage sound from sonic adventure followed by Abba and huge explosion. I assume a d20 did it, but not sure.
@@Hevensdragon it is a D20 effect on that mission.
@@Hevensdragon Yep, I really hope at some point someone tells them that the marines are trowing grenades as well.
@@amonsterchef5182 oh geez I really hoped the marines didnt have any, that is a lot of chaos
"He's invincible!"
"What's he invincible from?"
"Um, death..."
"Damn stationary turret ran me over" is a sentence I don't think I've heard ever in that structure and my god did I laugh at it lol
He got bonked on the head as a turret traversed. I guess that's a better way to go than how that hunter got launched to the moon
@@BLOODKINGbro That's actually a legitimate CE mechanic. It's not from the mod.
Heads up, the assault rifle's explosion isn't on the last bullet. There's a heat gauge on the ammo counter, it overheating is what sets it off. It just so happens that 110-ish out of 120 rounds is how much it takes to overheat.
Gav asks, "oh is Keyes going to kill himself?", Haha just you wait Gav-boi. Hopefully they start watching the cutscenes...
If I recall, that cutscene is why the Keyes level is glitched and doesn't work for Cursed Halo.
@@Cyyberslam8 Not glitched, if I remember correctly, the Chief says there's no time to save Keyes so the level gets skipped
@@Cyyberslam8 i forget where but the mod maker said the mod made keyes unplayable so he took the cutscene where he dies as canon lol
@@ASCARNAZ You also forgot the reason that Keyes kills himself in the flood video cutscene because he's using the backwards pistol and kills himself which is the sole reason there's no rescue mission.
Start watching cutscenes? They'll never do that!
im glad they figured out the blunderbuss jump, and i hope we get to see them do the flood reveal level cuz that cutscene is wonderful in this
If they do only 1 level per video that's at least 3 away. And Assault is a super long level, probably 2 videos for that. ... 4 weeks until we see "the moment"
They might miss it. I saw it somewhere else and almost missed it, but what I did see I was confused about. It took a few rewatches to understand what actually happened.
@@the_rabidsquirel Atleast they'll see the marine
Im currently watching them in the hangar and I was sooo hoping they figure out how to jump with the blunderbuss
43:35 The way the deathcam stuck to Keyes when Michael blasted him with the shotty was amazing

Desinc be like:
"Is that Abba?"
*NUCLEAR EXPLOSION*
Best part
I can't believe ABBA happened at the end. I was amazed with how many D20s they've thrown they hadn't seen that yet. Also I hope they get the flying warthog.
I love Gav's loadout of a blunderbuss and a Minecraft bow.
Real classic RvB energy with them coming out of the water on the hoglet at the end lol
I really wish they would have at least got some version of the teams just for a cursed Halo game.
Check every single weapon you see, most weapons have a few variations. I hope they find the other plasma rifle(s) AND the special melee "they" have. Also there's several warthog variants, I think the best one both looks normal before you get in and is only in D20s (Ray got it this level)

26:04 not QUITE how I envisioned that, but props to Gavin for ingenuity!

Thank you for continuing this series 🙂

I'm so happy they're continuing this, it's one of the greatest things they've done in my opinion.
I feel like this needs to be said: assault rifle over heats. Its not about how many bullets you shoot, its about the time you shoot them in.
The reason the needlers are like that is they're firing snarks from Half-Life. Tiny, bouncy creatures that'll gnaw your legs off!
Edit: As for the exploding rifles, take a look at your weapon's ammo counter, on the model itself. It's got an indicator for the weapon's heat level, and exceeding that threshold (indicated by it turning red) equals your weapon exploding.
But is it the greatest day?

*Gun pews*
"Is it saying "pew"?"

Cracked me up there.
There's something about watching a galactic firefight, and then every 5-10 seconds, you hear the most adorable little
Pew! >w<
I can't
The cutscenes are messed with too, don't skip them (especially the one everyone keeps hinting at)
Please finish the whole game
So happy to see you here early ☺️

Pro Tip: If you wait until the Plasma Pistol is fully charged (when your shields are fully drained) fire it and see what happens...
The second I heard Abba, I knew what was coming.
After all the years of AH play Halo why is Gavin's execution of this grunt at 33:38 the most brutal thing ive seen them do?
