4:12 fun fact: the Missile Battery seen on Exodus was meant to be a fully functioning vehicle. It's referenced in the generic.character tag and the turret_base_large tag even has a variant for it, referencing the missing vehicle tag. It can really easily be setup to work again with the only real missing thing being the fx and a marker called turret_g_enter which is used by the Scythe Anti Air Cannon. Also the reason why the trailers are vehicles is so that the tires can spin.
The cameras are vehicles because they couldn't figure out how to make cameras in the engine, so instead it's a turret that points at you and tries to shoot you but it has no bullets. The other camera with the horn was probably them testing putting an alarm on a camera, so when the ai tried to shoot you, it would just sound an alarm instead. Just a guess on the second camera
Those frigate turrets make me wish we had a special anti-aircraft game mode where you have to man the turret and shoot down waves of Banshees, Seraphs, Phantoms and Spirits, a kind of aerial assault Firefight match, if you will.
It's interesting how you're never sure which view you're getting when you enter a "secret" vehicle, whether it's first or third person. I imagine there is a way to adjust this manually as well.
This is so amazing, Reach is one of my favorite halo games and seeing all these vehicles just brings back memories of me as a kid trying to drive them. I remember back then being so impressed with the pelican turret glitch in long night of solace and thought that was the coolest turret
The easter egg on New Alexandria though, that was on another level. Like, it required such a setup, and then you could actually drive a pelican or phantom. I remember when I first did it as a kid, I was awestruck.
All these space turrets and vehicles make me wonder if Bungie toyed with the idea of multiplayer space battles like in star wars battlefront 2 for halo reach. That and some of the similarities between the long night of solace campaign mission and battlefront 2 space battles, like destroying the engines on a capital ship
Just in case anyone is thinking about purchasing those dream glasses they’re starting price for the previous model is $619. Pretty ridiculous when you think about the fact that you can get a 75” 4K Smart TV for that price on eBay brand new!!
Man I would love mp game modes relying on those vehicles mechanics. 1) A two teams fight that is split between three islands you can only reach by flying vehicles, and the number of single place vehicles is limited so you are bound to use pelicans and phantoms to transport some of the players from island to island 2) An asymetric "space" battle in which one of the teams is on the defence of a corvette/frigate and the other team is trying to blow it up (or commandeer it). The big ship could even be in atmosphere and the team on the offence has an AA canon the defensive team must destroy 3) A symmetrical space battle in which each team is given a big ship, wich is the only in game map. The two ships, and the emptiness of space, and then you try to board the other ship or destroy it...
All of these sound cool to me, I like how the third one sounds like a Halo version of the space battles from the original Battlefront II. Throw in a few frigates (corvettes for the Covenant) for large-scale space battles, perhaps?
Might see this stuff next year, hopeful. Quite unfortunate how little their budget and wheelspeed is to work on the MCC. Would generate a lot more buzz if even the community could contribute the labor to these things, in the same vein that last update to Left 4 Dead 2 brought
"With just a bit of modding, you can make them drivable." Dude, either give us a modding tutorial or don't say that. We all don't possess the knowledge to make it happen.
I think the hatch is a vehicle where the drones are the only one that have a disembarking animation, so i assume they spawn in the hatch that's a vehicle and they hop off the vehicle, making the animation of them comming out of the vents, that's just my guess.
there's a whole lot of "im not sure where this is actually used" in this video, and it gets me to thinking about just the differences between engines assembly, the community's main modding tool, doesn't offer any way to track where any given tag (piece of game data) is used. tags are identified by name (basically), and these names can be made unique, so there's no major technical need to track use info when making content this is all in contrast to skyrim, which uses unique numeric IDs for its "forms" (same thing as halo's "tags"). if one form needs to refer to another, it does so using the other form's ID. the official editing tools keep track of use info because they _have_ to. if you delete a form, you free up its ID; if you then make a new form, that new form can reuse the ID that the deleted form was using. this means that Skyrim's editing tools need to clear those uses when you delete a form, or else things that were using the deleted form will get something they don't expect instead. the official tools do this, and unofficial tools like xEdit do as well. of course, since use info is already being tracked for technical reasons, both programs also allow you to actually view it, and for games as large as Skyrim that ends up being super, super convenient. it seems like the halo engine doesn't really need to track use info, but it also seems like it'd be convenient for documenting and examining (and modifying!) the game's content. adding use info to assembly would be a monumental task, so it's understandable that it hasn't been done... but with some of the incredible mods i hear about from time to time, im just a teeny tiny little bit surprised it hasn't been done anyway anywho, good video. good job of showing off the vehicles with little to no fluff or filler
It's crazy just *how close* we were to finally having flyable dropships in forge, a feature requested since the dawn of time, and yet only Halo 4 pelicans were enabled for it. Reach, you were so close.
Okay, so… I love this kind of stuff, you really have shown me new things when I thought I knew everything about Reach. But dude… I bet you could really elevate your viewership and polish if you wrote scripts first, and maybe even had a friend look it over to catch little things we don’t always notice. You kind of trail off sometimes, as you go over the notes in your head. I’m not kidding, I will look over any script you make free-of-charge, since we both love Halo very very much. Right now this is amateur hour, my man! Same with your intro card… the freaking Windows XD login sound from 18 years ago? Dude…nowadays I bet there’s some app out there that’ll record a fart and transform it into a modern and unique little boot-up chime that would be proud to say YOU made! And, man… one other thing. As cool as these in-game objects are, they are not “secret”, dude! The Soccer Ball or the Scarab gun… those were secrets. Hidden for us to discover. This is all dev related stuff, and I bet it’s fascinating to understand. Such a strange way to frame all of this! Imagine: “SHHHHHH!!!

uhhh. in that advert for the dream glass.... the Tarnished is fighting Senator Armstrong.... he also has a rifle on his back. I'm fairly certain fromsoft would have something to say about using a mudded version of their game in an advert lol.
In Doom there is this giant plasma/energy gun, the BFG9000,called Big F**king Gun by the devs and community. Given that the weapons is part of the franchise since 1993,the first weapon is most likely a reference to it
in reach campaign i believe its new Alexandria you can fly a phantom, requires 2 player coop. same with the pelican. to activate it you either need a banshee or falcon. banshee to phantom and falcon to pelican.
The phantom in new Alexandria, can be used turret, main weapon of phantom all you need is kick the marine of the falcon and then get banshee asap and then press the button and you free to go.
I've actually been in the covenant squad drop pod once I was playing firefight and one came down right on top of me and it glitched me inside I couldn't get out so I was watching the enemies try to hit me but they couldn't it was kinda funny
I think this was done because in order for the turrets to have a dynamic targeting system they had friendly/enemy bots inside them, this could’ve probably been done to make the game less heavy to run i believe. Or maybe they were just to lazy ti create a new AI/entity for the turrets, who knows lol.
So a popcorn game type may have to mod out all supports for a horrier movie game off of ODST's vs infection & you could be taken over, no matter how many times you spawn in. When you run off of health.

That map gives me CE vibes edit: I added capital c and e
If I remember right, cameras would follow the player in halo reach, so I'm guessing they had an enemy npc "driving" them.
If they follow the players, they probably were being driven by an enemy belonging to the Camera team, which was only hostile to the Player team.
