- Couldn't find a video of the Promethean weapons assembling themselves when you first pick them up so here it is.
Recorded with HUDless mod for Halo 4, which can be found here:

Some people may hate the Prometheans but you gotta admit, they have some nice toys.
I love the Prometheans. They were a cool trifecta that complimented each other in a very methodical way. Felt different from the Flood and Covenant and looked cool.
@@davidn4956 I love them too, but some encounters with them can be difficult, take the mission Shutdown for example: it has an overwhelming amount of Crawlers and Knights.
@@griffingower1883 True, but then again, they're a Flood replacement and overwhelming you was kind of their thing. The Library in CE and Cortana in 3 come to mind.
@@davidn4956 True, but a single mission doesn't need to have like 50000 Crawlers and Knights all at once
@@griffingower1883 'Some people may hate the-'.
unless some are very strongly in it usually for the halo [Grape] and galaxy. Lore-wise. (oh yes. I agree on some of those ancient Humankind's/etc's very advanced, but still Causal-bound technological makings of their military powers.
or the forerunners', in this case from this video's).
yes.
but, as for the majority....well.
yes, your wording fits those. (some of them anyways).
The Forerunners were so badass, they used PARTICLE ACCELERATORS as their firearms.
That being said, you’d think it would punch a hole in basically anything, but no. It’s no more powerful than a human equivalent weapon. I get that it’s for gameplay balancing but still.
@@migueltoledo1884 I think that's because they're canonically on the lowest setting, and Chief can't change it cause he doesn't know enough about them. Either that, or the Prometheans have them locked to that setting in case the Didact broke out and took them over.
If you think about it, aren’t these technically the weapons morphing to fit human hands? Because they look a little different on the Prometheans.
Like most of forerunner architecture, the weapons are made of the ubiquitous "Smartmatter", a programmable matter that can shift its size, shape, and texture into whatever the user needs it to be. It can alter its size to fit into the hands of human soldiers. Which makes sense because Forerunners are well over 11 feet tall, have much larger hands, as well as having a thumb and 5 fingers. Chief wouldn't be able to hold a weapon like that
@@carmelomercado6560 Tbf that's the Warrior-Servant rate, who are to Forerunner what Spartans are to normal humans. But yeah. Also Forerunner users were probably more adept at utilizing it- the way we use it is probably the equivalent of a monkey with an AK-47 using it as a club. We've missed the intended purpose and the best way to use it, but it still functions as a weapon- just not as good a one as it would be if the monkey knew to aim and pull the trigger.
@@fjnordthedwarf4004 Well specifically it's Prometheans, who were huge even by Warrior-Servant standards. But the point I was making was that the Smartmatter is capable of altering its size and shape, in this case weapons, to the user. Chief being puny compared to the enormous Forerunners just couldn't reliably handle a full size weapon
@@carmelomercado6560 Oh ye no, I was just saying that not all Forerunners were that size (and yeah I now realize that you were talking about Prometheans, mb. Though Warrior-Servants were still monstrous. I mean look at the Didact, he's like 1.5 Chiefs). Everything else you said was fine, sorry if I gave the impression of disagreeing, I just meant to add some more info.
@@fjnordthedwarf4004 Wdym, the didact was a promethean, not a warrior servant
Light rifle looks sick
Say what you want bout the prometheans but they have the cleanest weapon animations ive ever layed eyes on
talk shit about 343's art style... but you cant deny this shit is lit.
I don't talk shit about their art style. It's great. At least, until Infinite turned it into Fortnite-lite.
This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you. I love the animations for these weapons!
I like these Prometheans and their weapons edgy-corners-with-many-levitating-pieces-which-move-abruptly design even if most part of Halo fans disagree with me
also the sound design (assembly, firing and reloading) in Halo 4 is fantastic, I dont know why in Halo 5 this was downgraded to blasters from 20th century sci-fi movies
The sound design of halo 4 was awful
Light rifle was awesome in its debut think about it. Ads makes it single shot but packs more hit to the bullets then hip firing is burst shots while making it faster it shoot those bursts don’t underestimate the strength either a couple headshots from hip fire will kill quick.
One of the few good things 343 did and like anything good they did, they immediately retconned it in future titles.
I always thought the binary rifle was so fucking cool
The Boltshot and Scattershot animations are my favorites
"Gun assemble!"
Bro what sucked is how it only happens once with new players.
In MCC for some reason the animations play whenever you resume a checkpoint. What's annoying tho for people who want to find all terminals, the same thing happens with them. Cortana will give her initial exposition about terminals contacting the domain whenever resuming a game and finding one
That was only a problem with Halo 5. Halo 4 played the animations for first pickups on a level and mp.
Oddly satisfying
Now put the franchise back together
This is cool as fuck. If only the core gameplay were more like the Halo games that came before it.
The binary rifle is one of my all time favourite halo weapons. I love the prometheans and the cool tech they come with but the binary rifle really stands out. Its scary when its pointed at you and its proper fun to point back at the prometheans. You would think the laser pointer when you're scoped in would be a problem but I've still found it very useful in some pvp settings so I'm sure someone who's good at halo would use it way better. I find it weird that it fires a shot in halo 4 and a beam in halo 5 but both still feel powerful, especially the Twin Jewels of Maethrillian in halo 5.
(i cant believe ive just written an essay about a gun from halo)
The Binary rifle is probably the best weapon to use in higher difficulties in Halo 4, the Suppressor rifle has WAY TOO much bloom and bullet spread
@@amematoi the suppressor looked cool but I hate automatic weapons like that in halo. I bin off the ar whenever I get the chance. The light rifle is way more fun to use and its a nice second place to the binary rifle which ofc the game doesn't let us carry as much ammo for
@@Tom-oz7wk Halo 4 is difficult because of the low ammo you can carry for weapons overall.
@@amematoi I don't remember having that problem but I play on lower difficulties cos I'm bad at games (I just like the story tbh). But I remember reading other comments where people were complaining about the forerunner weapons and how you had no choice but to use them because there's an ammo problem.
Halo 4 gets a pass imo because you get to fly a pelican, even if it's one of very few memorable moments in the campaign
Chief's arm was also "Assembling".
The Binary rifle was my favorite promethean weapon, I just hated that it only had two shot. Lol I bet that was done on purpose to make you eat Sergeant Johnson words.
i miss these weapons and i wish they were in infinite...
top notch foli work. if anyone knows of one, is there a video anywhere, where I can see how the halo 4 sounds where recorded?
And yes I know the flood are canon.
The one and only cool thing about 4
They look cool but man sooooo much of H4 I had to use these weapons because UNSC and COvvie weapons ran out of ammo.
That's the only fun thing about Promethean weapons in Halo 4. The animations are sick but gameplay-wise, they pretty much reskins of UNSC weapons (and again, the available ammo is unbalanced) and in 343's canon (where the Forerunners did NOT create humanity and install a machine that would influence its evolution to mold it to eventually become Forerunner), this makes no sense, and even if it did, when gameplay goes before lore, you get games that are fun to play, not fun to watch / read about. Halo 4 is neither.
M13 mythic in cod mobile be like:
That reminds Megatron
reminds megatron of what
How? It doesn't even sound like it. You're just being an idiot.
this is bad comedy
I hate the prometheans but not their weapons
They’re cool animations but they’re just… not in-line with what the bungie games taught us about forerunner tech and aesthetic. It feels ripped out of a weird fantasy game or Warframe, not really halo. I’m happy halo infinite dropped the Promethean stuff and made forerunner weapons look more forerunner
🤡
Bros 10 years late 😭
During when the flood was told to be defeated, (could probably still be existing) when I played halo 4 and the rest, the flood to me just don’t feel canon to me unfortunately. I miss the horrors of the gameplay.
And they got so boring after being the ONLY WEAPONS YOU COULD USE THROUGHOUT MOST OF THE DAMN CAMPAIGN
These animations got me killed several times because I needed to fire my weapon immediately but no, we have to watch a cool animation.
Skill issue.
When you hate just to hate. This only happens ones in Gameplay, so its almost imposible to have died "many times" for this
They were way better in 4, in 5 everything sounds so muted and weak.
the color palette in this game was just so bland
Halo4 was so lazy.
The promethean weapons, the preomethean enemies.
Just all so very lazy. Im glad I fell off Halo in 2012 after Halo4.
I knew how shit 343 was by that game alone. Wish everyone else could have seen it.
How's this lazy when obviously designing, and animating these kinds of weapons are really hard? You're just jealous because they have better creativity, cope, and seethe. You can't just say it's lazy, you need to give out reasons nerd. Halo 4's weapon designs were awesome. Except for some that are not.
Generic AF.
You're generic.
