But if that was the case his amor would be fucked as well as his actual body itself.

Jokes on you, bro. See, you were actually in hell after the glassing and your suffering is having to endlessly shoot down covenant ships that respawn over and over again.
Nearly a decade later and I never once thought what would happen if you let the ship glass the planet. Seriously can't believe it never crossed my mind so this is my first time seeing this.
@@ddsjgvk you can also turn off death barriers at Exodus Bravo where you play online and kill the Marines while in the falcon and have host quit the game at the same time
Using the Black Eye skull on easy means you can pretty much live forever without mods or cheats. The game will just spawn start spawning Sword and Concussion Launcher Elites (Zealots or Generals i think?) in groups of around 4 until they kill you. This can last infinitely, and there's achievements for getting 150k score, which is probably around 3 hours of gametime in Lone Wolf. The final cutscene only triggers when the character is killed by the Covenant, death barriers don't count.
I just finished Reach on Halo MCC, never played it before and didn't know how it ended. A sad story. Fun as Hell though :) and awesome graphics. On to Halo 3, never played that before either! Envy me.
Same reason the Imperium doesn’t just Exteminatus every planet- can’t use a planet properly if you glass it. It’s the same reason every war against a non-nuclear power doesn’t start with nuclear bombardment. Can’t use what you destroy
The reason for the shake effect is probably for the very small amount of shake you can see before the screen goes white, and the actual effect wasn't made just for this, it was also used in New Alexandria when the cruisers in the background start glassing the area.
That "bye guys" at the end of videos makes me happy, it's a good day to wake up watch your videos and feel complete for the rest of the day, never change please

thing is, their is no need to put any extra development time after the firing when the loss condition triggers your death, it would certainly be nice but if all you have to do is implement a kill command then you can bet they will save the time and just do it, and as for respawns and such its probably easier to program them that way then to tie it into more conditions like the cruisers state etc, it really is a peek behind the screen at developer shortcuts that are normally perfectly fine and cleverly hidden, the kind of time saving development that isn't detrimental to its fans.

How do gamers not understand the only things that can be in a game are what's put there by the developers or modders? There are exceptions, like cut content that was put in the game, ended up being removed from normal gameplay, but the actual assets and scripts can still exist in the publicly released files of the game. So while looking for hidden content isn't a waste, most of the time it is kinda stupid to think things that are implied to have happened actually happen despite much effort on the developers to not have to spend time and money fleshing out such events. Remember, it's a work of fiction and artwork, not reality; things can't exist in a game that aren't deliberately but in, save for software bugs, but that's usually sloppiness or software limitations.
You CAN see the screen shake as the screen whites out. Also, the shake is from the explosion effect. Its universal. Why would they go out of their way to take out the screen shake for just one explosion in the whole game?
Wait what, when is this, why he saying at the very end, the very end of halo reach is "lone wolf" the mission where you just have to try to survive as long as possible right?
Lone Wolf is hardly a mission, It's just surviving as long as possible. The story and gameplay both pretty much finish in The Pillar of Autumn, and I think he meant the very end of the level.
Oh, a white screen.... that’s what happens in the lore as well. All the inhabitants of Reach experienced a white screen for eternity. But they could still here background noises.
Just curious if there's any lore behind the covenant ship trying to destroy the PoA because there's always some interesting fun fact and backstories for seemingly subtle stuff in Halo like the NPC marine, Chips Dubbo got a name and lore or the brute chieftain at the end of the level The Ark actually called Cethegus and some story going around him
It would have been cool if there actually were a way to "beat" the final part of the end where it's just an endless gauntlet of enemies coming toward you. You know, the part where it basically just "survive for as long as you can" but with the obvious implication you can't truly survive this day..... What I mean is - it'd be cool if at this stage you actually CAN manage to avoid getting hit enough to truly never trigger the next cutscene, and instead an unavoidable glassing happens just to ensure that no matter what, Noble Six dies there. If you could instead survive until the ship does that, it'd still be cool because it'd feel like you really truly did fight until THE VERY END.
As long as that mission has been in a functional state, so theoretically 9 - 11 years as of 2019 depending on when Bungie had it first fully scripted and playable.
Imagine if there was an easter egg where if you armour locked at the right time, you would survive the glassing and there would be a cutscene where the pillar of autumn explodes and the entire area is destroyed, but you are the sole survivor locked in armour lock

The glassing beams really make you wonder why the covenant used boots on the ground and not just glass a planet in moments with thousands of ships.
Same reason the Imperium doesn’t just Exteminatus every planet- can’t use a planet properly if you glass it.
It’s the same reason every war against a non-nuclear power doesn’t start with nuclear bombardment. Can’t use what you destroy
To secure positions
The Covenant intended to secure a forerunner artifact on Reach; that's why they didn't glass the planet right away.
They were looking for forerunner artifacts like Cortana.
You can see the screen shake beginning as the screen fades to white, it’s subtle but really adds to the effect of being blasted
For a second I thought if you survive long enough on lone wolf this happened then I saw the gun and I realised it was a bit earlier than that
The reason for the shake effect is probably for the very small amount of shake you can see before the screen goes white, and the actual effect wasn't made just for this, it was also used in New Alexandria when the cruisers in the background start glassing the area.

Wait what, when is this, why he saying at the very end, the very end of halo reach is "lone wolf" the mission where you just have to try to survive as long as possible right?
Lone Wolf is hardly a mission, It's just surviving as long as possible.
The story and gameplay both pretty much finish in The Pillar of Autumn, and I think he meant the very end of the level.
5:03 that phantom sacrificed itself just to save the glassing beam. Phantom: I will save youuuuuuuu.
*glassing beam gets destroyed*
You should have shot the ship after the glassing beam was activated
Damn, was expecting to see the Pillar to be destroyed.
Halo 3: ODST: Engineers infected by the Flood!
Oh, a white screen.... that’s what happens in the lore as well. All the inhabitants of Reach experienced a white screen for eternity. But they could still here background noises.
Bruh he has emotion in has voice now!
I want to play a Halo game where you get glassed and you watch the beam come towards you before you melt
Next up can noble 6 survive firing the halo rings
IVAnonymousVI VENM perhaps...
4:40 Dude's Assault Rifle takes out Phantoms easily.
I know it's a mod, but still. I want it.
3:42 Those rings on the ground in the background look like the rings in the trailer for Halo Infinite. Maybe we get to go back to Reach?
Greg Jenkins if we did, I’d love for there to be a short cutscene where Chief finds Noble Six’s helmet
Wasn't it confirmed to be on a halo ring though?
Regardless though i would love for someone to eventually find 6's helmet
Just curious if there's any lore behind the covenant ship trying to destroy the PoA because there's always some interesting fun fact and backstories for seemingly subtle stuff in Halo like the NPC marine, Chips
Dubbo got a name and lore or the brute chieftain at the end of the level The Ark actually called Cethegus and some story going around him
This game still looks amazing graphically, Bungie did an amazing job with Reach.
I knew halo wasn’t dead
Spoiler: Reach didn't *actually* fall.
It would have been cool if there actually were a way to "beat" the final part of the end where it's just an endless gauntlet of enemies coming toward you. You know, the part where it basically just "survive for as long as you can" but with the obvious implication you can't truly survive this day.....
What I mean is - it'd be cool if at this stage you actually CAN manage to avoid getting hit enough to truly never trigger the next cutscene, and instead an unavoidable glassing happens just to ensure that no matter what, Noble Six dies there. If you could instead survive until the ship does that, it'd still be cool because it'd feel like you really truly did fight until THE VERY END.
Yeah that'd be cool but that's literally the premise of Lone Wolf
smh it's so easy, just don't die from the beam
Crazy how a MAC cannon can obliterate a Cruiser...
What is the maximum time you can survive on Lone Wolf?
Forever
Noble Six isn’t hiding in a cave, but behind crates in a corner
Trenton Richards
Lmao, yeah I remember that glitch
@@Valkyries733 Not a glitch
As long as that mission has been in a functional state, so theoretically 9 - 11 years as of 2019 depending on when Bungie had it first fully scripted and playable.
Script Experts : _lets rescript the story for players to survive_
0:25 for those who have not played the game before 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I have played the reach campaign 44 times
🤣🤣🤣🤣 we dont care
Well I've played the campaign 45 times
KAIIRU have you or are you just saying that
RayB S 🤣🤣🤣you care that’s why you read this comment and replied you goon
Imagine if there was an easter egg where if you armour locked at the right time, you would survive the glassing and there would be a cutscene where the pillar of autumn explodes and the entire area is destroyed, but you are the sole survivor locked in armour lock
