I really wish they weren't essentially nerfed in this war just to make the Banished seem like an unstoppable force only the Chief could defeat. They may have brute strength and numbers but even an S 4 in theory and lore should be exceptionally quicker and smarter to put up a huge resistance. In reality this should be a 30-70 ratio of odds instead of an unwinnable battle in vain.
@@idcompany9240I think is that this losing scenario is believable considering that they have been fighting now for like 6 months without any kind of backup and fighting in armors without any kind of repairs or spare parts
I just love to see how Lasky stays “cool” even in the face of extreme danger. You see he is a great leader and he knows that the person in command must maintain control at every time in front of its men
To the halo community on this thread if you were a spartan during the Zeta Halo conflict how long do you think you would have survived? Let me list the things you would have to contend with. 1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly. 2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with) 3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel. 4) Evacuation Actual: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee flier or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cut-scene). 5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass. 6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone. 7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces prior to the detonation. 8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 81+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personnel trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel. 9) Endgame: If you are still alive past those initial 81+ days of continues fighting, you will have to contend with the with an additional 87+ days of combat. At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo. Tell me how you would survive? Answer the following questions? Are you a part of a Spartan Fire team or not? (Remember that not all Spartan 3's and 4's operated within a fire team, many specialists usually conduct lone wolf operations) What Gen 3 Mjolnir Kit would you have? How would you tackle the banished invasion of Infinity? (Civilian and Naval personnel Evacuation, Engine room defense, Infinity bridge defense, Corridor Defense, Hanger bay Defense, or Counter boarding action operations) How would you evacuate the Infinity? (Drop Pod, Life Boat, or Drop Ship) What would you do if your evacuation craft landed behind enemy lines? What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in the middle of a UNSC vs Banished skirmish? What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in a combat free zone? How would you escape the fracturing of zeta halo as a result of Cortana? How would you choose to combat the banished during the initial 81+ days of fighting? (Attack infrastructure, Assassinate VIP Targets, Disrupt Supply Lines, Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel, Raid banished convoy's, Conduct espionage, Attack critical banished ops sights). Note the following consequences for the following: 1) Attack Infrastructure: These locations are well fortified and defended, even for a spartan they can prove challenging, they are also most likely to result learning of your whereabouts and sending spartan killers your way. 2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox. 3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation. 4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished. 5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans. 6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai) 7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units. How would you choose to combat the banished during the last 87+ days of fighting prior to the re-awakening of the Master Chief? Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.
The Spartan audio logs are really interesting to listen to, probably my favorite set of audio logs. It’s interesting hearing about the early fighting on Zeta halo, actually makes me even more sad now finding those spartans’ corpses :( interesting though that we don’t get confirmations on the fates of horvath and vettel. given that griffin was still in the tower, we can assume vettel’s plan failed, but horvath is way more open ended, as it seems he’s going to a part of the ring with less banished presence. interesting…
If you pay attention to the MP armor coatings, it says something along the lines of "Even in death duty does not end" and they're named after each Spartan. It may not be stated but it's HEAVILY implied they died,which is unfortunate

@@ambiguumspectatoremespecta9803 assuming I was just a normal odst, survived all the clusterfuck that happened on the ship,I would just take a piece of large metal as a shield and a jetpack to break my fall then just jump out of the ship and pray to god i wont get BBQ on the ring atmosphere,just let the VIP use the drop pod,they will serve as bait while i drop to the surface.Doubt the AA will even notice or manage to hit a small target such as me,manage to land on the ring is still better than hiding in space with a pelican waiting to die of dehydration or starvation,i think i will try to establish some communication with the remaining force first then just scout from afar only asisst if i can. Now with the fall of the infinity we gotta assume the worst and avoid conflict since there will be little chance we will survive in the long run if we participate in active combat frequently but yes we need to regroup first once thing die down because that will give us resources and protection for awhile,if i heard my commander give some stupid idea such as trying to assassinate a VIP without proper knowledge and numbers,i will pack my shit and dip out of there,find some cave then just stay there until some miracle happen,sometime going out to hunt,scout and free prisoners if possible,if our leader is irrational then we are better alone,Hovarth and Jun survived until the end because they were alone and didn't do stupid shit like his teammates.
@@decade9026 Their is a couple points to address. 1) You are aware jetpacks are not rated for atmospheric re-entry and that its combustibles are likely to cook off during your initial atmospheric re-entry phase. 2) As an un-augmented human your tolerances to extreme heat is not too high so odds are you would suffer a heat stroke midway through you entering the upper atmosphere. 3) As an un-augmented human you also have low tolerances to extreme gravitational forces so entering the ring the way you propose may not be the best for you overall wellbeing, it doesn't help that ODST battle armor is considerably heavier than most standard infantry BDU. 4) While you are not a spartan (Who have a bulls eye painted on them), you are still an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper which is the next most prevalent threat to the banished.

Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.
@ambiguumspectatoremespecta9803 I have about 3 scenarios of how this could go for me, technically a fourth if we want to be all idealist but it's highly unlikely. The Spartan in Question: Spartan G-032, Oni Section 3 Special Operative, shock and awe/VIP asset removal assignments, most often solo. As with other Gamma's, needs smoothers every 15-24 hours to keep his sanity. Mirage Class/Gen 3 experimental mix tailored for hazardous environments and for going quiet Scenario 1: G-032, stationed as security detail upon the Infinity, survives the initial ramming. He fights wave after wave of banished boarding forces, making his way towards the bridge to ensure the command staff survives. When the evacuation order is issued he stocks up on smoothers and keeps fighting off banished, helping as many personnel get off the ship as possible, but is unable to reach an escape route himself. The Infinity crashes down, and he is crushed in the rubble, knowing that at least others will fight on. Time until the Master Chief is recused by Echo-216: 6 months Scenario 2: As above, but G-032 manages to reach a Drop Pod. He goes into the Ring feet first, linking up with other UNSC forces and establishing an FOB. He survives the shattering of the ring by virtue of luck, being far away from the break when it occurs but he still has to fasten himself down to avoid being blown away by the shockwave. The following days would be a mad dash across the ring gathering survivors, disrupting local supply chains and reinforcing their initial landing spot, where he is out of his element but like any Spartan he performs nonetheless. Resources are scarce, so Smoothers are being produced at just the right rate to keep him stable. When the Reverie is established he has a choice, but scenario 2 involves him staying close, fighting off local banished forces and setting up the base at the Reverie when the attack commences. G-032 fights his damn hardest, but he is ultimately beaten, captured and taken to the House of Reckoning to fight for the Banished enjoyment. Deprived of his stabilizing drugs he fights for days with insane ferocity that surprises even the Brutes, but is ultimately slain. Time until the Master Chief is rescued by Echo-216: Three Months. Scenario 3: As Scenario 2, except G-032 returns to his roots. Operating away from the Reverie in assassination and disruption missions, he hears about it's destruction far to late. Still, he perseveres, scavenging supplies, linking up with UNSC forces every once in a while. His access to smoothers is critically low, teetering on the edge of mental break but pushing on. Eventually, he pushes a little to far, and the Banished pursuit of him becomes too hot. He manages to kill an unnamed Hand of Atriox warrior before ultimately having to retreat into Forerunner installations in the Ring before overwhelming reinforcements arrive. His body battered and burned, armor damaged, ammo low and only one smoother left, only his illegal pain numbing enhancements allow him to walk away from the fight. G-032's comms go offline as he enters the structure. Marked as MIA. Time until the Master Chief is rescued by Echo-216: 4 days. Scenario 4(Wishful thinking): G-032 survives long enough until news of Echarum's death at the hand of the Master Chief reach him. He joins with the UNSC forces and fights along Chief against whatever comes. Yeah, so either dead or insane in a lost structure by the end if we want to be real about it.
To the halo community on this thread if you were a spartan during the Zeta Halo conflict how long do you think you would have survived? Let me list the things you would have to contend with. 1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly. 2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with) 3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel. 4) Evacuation Actual: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee flier or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cut-scene). 5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass. 6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone. 7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces prior to the detonation. 8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 81+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personnel trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel. 9) Endgame: If you are still alive past those initial 81+ days of continues fighting, you will have to contend with the with an additional 87+ days of combat. At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo. Tell me how you would survive? Answer the following questions? Are you a part of a Spartan Fire team or not? (Remember that not all Spartan 3's and 4's operated within a fire team, many specialists usually conduct lone wolf operations) What Gen 3 Mjolnir Kit would you have? How would you tackle the banished invasion of Infinity? (Civilian and Naval personnel Evacuation, Engine room defense, Infinity bridge defense, Corridor Defense, Hanger bay Defense, or Counter boarding action operations) How would you evacuate the Infinity? (Drop Pod, Life Boat, or Drop Ship) What would you do if your evacuation craft landed behind enemy lines? What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in the middle of a UNSC vs Banished skirmish? What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in a combat free zone? How would you escape the fracturing of zeta halo as a result of Cortana? How would you choose to combat the banished during the initial 81+ days of fighting? (Attack infrastructure, Assassinate VIP Targets, Disrupt Supply Lines, Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel, Raid banished convoy's, Conduct espionage, Attack critical banished ops sights). Note the following consequences for the following: 1) Attack Infrastructure: These locations are well fortified and defended, even for a spartan they can prove challenging, they are also most likely to result learning of your whereabouts and sending spartan killers your way. 2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox. 3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation. 4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished. 5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans. 6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai) 7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units.

32:07 He speaks on how the water rise and covered the land quickly.If you go around with the wasp and see below you can see clearly see there was an extreme flood that covered the land.
Not going to lie, I personally think Griffin made the right choice sending in a single strike team. The Reverie being overrun was an eventuality. They didn't have the weaponry nor numbers to fight off the entirety of the Banished. Especially since Escherum had the Spartan killers whom we all learn are the most dangerous hunters in the universe and trained to be better. The only issue with the plan was that Escherum predicted the assassination. Whether through recon, invisible elites, or just him simply being a war chief. He had eyes everywhere on the ring. It was no longer an assassination. Just as the Spartans knew that killing Escherum would cause a power vacuum, so did Escherum. Their plan failed because they ran right into a trap because their plan was easily predicted.
@@Oghuzpervert1 In the game Halo reach there are audio logs detailing the activities of the spartan 3s on Reach. Made it alot cooler and better than these.
@@shockwave6213 a mix of both. 2/3rds of the game was cut down as reported recently by Schreier/Bloomberg. Also in the 2020 trailer that released alongside the gameplay reveal there was a shot of Chief's visor reflecting three red dots, something that we don't ever see in the campaign. Chances are that was when Chief meets Offensive Bias, and was probably supposed to be part of the base campaign but got cut this previous year to get the game out in time.
I'm very curious on what secret mission Jameson Locke is on during this. There's a LOT of things that can be done with a Spartan doing God-knows-what under the direct orders and command of ONI. . .
Operation Breaker Trip can be assumed to be the UNSC effort to establish forward operating bases on Zeta halo in preparation for Infinity and her escort fleet as we know that shortly following its arrival on zeta halo the infinity was rammed by 4 banished dreadnoughts and boarded by banished forces. Not enough time to set up FOB to say the least.

I wanted a campaign were we have multiple point of views for fireteam Osiris, blue team, and probably jun because of how the firing range keeps saying his name
One thing that I've just discovered since I've literally just started replaying the game: the collected audio logs carry over into any new game that you play so you don't have to recollect them. The only one that I missed was in the very first level which is the ONLY one that I couldn't go back to. Once I collect that, I'll have them all. I think you have to redo collecting the Spartan Cores and such though.
Fun fact: the elite in banished outpost intel 9 is the same one from the sentry phoenix log in halo wars 2 (hence why he mentions the "unnatural defenses" since his squad was attacked by what seems to be a retriever sentinel in the phoenix log)
Just finished spartan logs, spartan armor can self destruct with a massive explosion (Size of a small nuke in the novels) I dont know why they didn't detonate it to kill as many as possible with them.

What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in the middle of a UNSC vs Banished skirmish? What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in a combat free zone? How would you escape the fracturing of zeta halo as a result of Cortana? How would you choose to combat the banished during the initial 81+ days of fighting? (Attack infrastructure, Assassinate VIP Targets, Disrupt Supply Lines, Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel, Raid banished convoy's, Conduct espionage, Attack critical banished ops sights). Note the following consequences for the following: 1) Attack Infrastructure: These locations are well fortified and defended, even for a spartan they can prove challenging, they are also most likely to result learning of your whereabouts and sending spartan killers your way. 2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox. 3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation. 4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished. 5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans. 6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai) 7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units. How would you choose to combat the banished during the last 87+ days of fighting prior to the re-awakening of the Master Chief? Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.
The banished may have killed the spartan IV and III contingent on infinity during their campaign on Zeta Halo. But they also may have created the best and most experienced weapons against them? I am talking about UNSC Marine Corps personnel, If they survive to make it off halo I am sure that many among them would qualify induction into the Spartan IV program. I say that surviving a campaign such as that is more than enough of an accolade, not to mention the tenacity, tactical ingenuity, and leadership skills such a campaign may have fostered within some marines throughout those brutal days. Though it is still a loss of experienced class 1 - 6 Spartan IVs and many Spartan III'S.
I wanna see Palmer and Locke getting they’re ass beat, I want that shit to just be hopeless, their armor being ripped off of them while they just try to fight brutes hand to hand, maybe some bones snapping
So, I had this insane theory when I finished halo 5 that by the end it will end in a sort of loop of time, Cortana activating the halos and realizing that no matter what, in the end everything repeated itself, and now they are kind of doing that

To the halo community on this thread if you were a spartan during the Zeta Halo conflict how long do you think you would have survived? Let me list the things you would have to contend with. 1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly. 2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with) 3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel. 4) Evacuation Actual: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee flier or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cut-scene). 5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass. 6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone. 7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces prior to the detonation. 8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 81+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personnel trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel. 9) Endgame: If you are still alive past those initial 81+ days of continues fighting, you will have to contend with the with an additional 87+ days of combat. At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo. Tell me how you would survive? Answer the following questions? Are you a part of a Spartan Fire team or not? (Remember that not all Spartan 3's and 4's operated within a fire team, many specialists usually conduct lone wolf operations) What Gen 3 Mjolnir Kit would you have?

thing is spartan twos are super super soldiers spartan 4s are more than anything beefed up special forces imagine todays delta force but a lot cooler and more effective
“Last ditch effort” mentions helljumpers, is that ODST’s? I was wondering why we never saw any in the game. Also I’d like DLC exploring that Lucas Browning guy, would be interesting to see what the Harbinger did to his mind.
Likely answer is they were all killed off. Of course the out of universe answer being they probably didn't have time to model and add ODSTs to the Marine pool
Most likely killed off; special forces units would have been top priority for the banished, while a single spartan is deadly on their own; they are far and few in between. ODST, Marine Force Recon, and Asymmetrical Fighting Units while more numerous are no less deadly. Hell during the human covenant war - silent shadow and Brute stalker units like the blood stars were often sent to not only hunt down and kill spartans but also ODST's as they presented a big enough threat.

I love how Chief talks about the weapon in a way that makes you care and worry that it will work out between the two of them even though the weapon doesn't know the Master Chief, has no memory of him.
If the transmission dates are to be belief then from March 03 2560 (Date Rubicon Protocol was declared) to May 28 2560 (Date of Horvaths last transmission) then "Halo: Rubicon Protocol" book by Kelly Gay will take place over the course of 87+ days that followed the fall of the UNSC Reverie Forward Operating Base. But we still have very little Info on the 81 days leading up to the declaration of the Rubicon Protocol.
1:00:40 From December 13 to 26 is 13 days Spartan Horvath; Granted with the damage the ring took from Cortana's little stunt the day and night cycle on the ring must be pretty out of whack.
50:12 Oh, I like her; I am going to guess that she was a former helljumper. Those lovable psychos always did enjoy ramming their pods into enemy armor. That or maybe marine force recon like Spartan Madson, though the latter would not build your grit as much as the ODST's.

Note the following consequences for the following: 1) Attack Infrastructure: These locations are well fortified and defended, even for a spartan they can prove challenging, they are also most likely to result learning of your whereabouts and sending spartan killers your way. 2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox. 3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation. 4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished. 5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans. 6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai) 7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units. How would you choose to combat the banished during the last 87+ days of fighting prior to the re-awakening of the Master Chief? Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.
Both Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris were elsewhere when Infinity was destroyed. Most likely, the two Spartan teams were busy giving the Banished a thorough spanking elsewhere.
To the halo community on this thread if you were a spartan during the Zeta Halo conflict how long do you think you would have survived? Let me list the things you would have to contend with. 1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly. 2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with) 3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel. 4) Evacuation Actual: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee flier or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cut-scene). 5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass. 6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone. 7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces prior to the detonation. 8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 81+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personnel trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel. 9) Endgame: If you are still alive past those initial 81+ days of continues fighting, you will have to contend with the with an additional 87+ days of combat. At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo. Tell me how you would survive? Answer the following questions? Are you a part of a Spartan Fire team or not? (Remember that not all Spartan 3's and 4's operated within a fire team, many specialists usually conduct lone wolf operations) What Gen 3 Mjolnir Kit would you have? How would you tackle the banished invasion of Infinity? (Civilian and Naval personnel Evacuation, Engine room defense, Infinity bridge defense, Corridor Defense, Hanger bay Defense, or Counter boarding action operations) How would you evacuate the Infinity? (Drop Pod, Life Boat, or Drop Ship) What would you do if your evacuation craft landed behind enemy lines? What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in the middle of a UNSC vs Banished skirmish? What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in a combat free zone?

Hi, love your content I'm wondering if we can collab on the two Halo Wars game audios I make biligual voiceline compilations for command and conquer games, and I find Halo wars' audio lines to be interesting as well However, I've yet to extract those files I'm sure we can collab to get'em all, just let me know if you are interested
Also there was a contradiction, a normal marine said "oni reports on the infinity said zeta halo isnt like the others" and then 1:13:00 in the spartan (who would have alot more clearance and more knowledge) says "all this time we assumed this ring was like the others, what if we were mistaken?"
Perhaps the normal marine isn't so normal? Just a thought, but if a marine had access to oni reports, it's likely that marine was actually an oni field agent. A lot of oni intel is only accessible to field agents and even many spartans don't have access to it.
@@DailySquadProductions I doubt ONI shares anything with Spartans at all, given that if anyone could successfully revolt against ONI in the event that they get smelly intel, it's Spartans
@@mercury2157 true, spartans were initially brought in as a point and shoot type weapon to quell insurrections, dont know why they'd be cleared for ONI level clearance
Actually how much a spartan know compared to any soldier in the UNSC Armed Forces is dependent on their clearance level and not every spartan has the same clearance level.

56:23-57:02 was probably the scariest thing to hear a spartan running for their lives. Haven't gotten anymore than 5 ring fall logs. These logs make me sad i couldn't fight w/ these spartans. MIA

There are no mentions of Spartan-IIIs being aboard the Infinity at this time. The closest we know of is Lopis Ferrets and even then they never boarded because they were in the middle of a deep cover Operation. If there are other Spartan-III teams or Headhunters they could've been reassigned or deployed on other operations, perhaps Op: BREAKER TRIP (that Locke was also assigned) or Op: KICKSTAND, or perhaps something else that is yet to be written.
The smartest general strategist in the halo series Smartest Human strategist: Cpt James Cuter (spirit of fire) Smartest Sangheli strategist: Thel Vadum (Arbiter) Smartest Jiralhane Strategist: Atriox
I just hope captain lasky and captain lockes team aka buck survived :/ cause laskys last com was interrupted while he was going to the surface and the banished where shooting down pods going to the surface:/ at that time :/ and then spartan killers had captain lockes helmet attached to his shoulder :/ so idk 🤷 maybe a prisoner.
Hmm? Spartan sorel voice sounds like a character I know from another game But sometimes in games can't really tell who's voice sounds familiar though right. But halo infinite is doing pretty well for now and the audio logs are pretty swell.
Ah! Good to know. And 2nd Imari Williams is pretty much the same voice actor from a particular game called gears of War 3: Raams shadow (DLC) i believe that he played Michael Barrick a pretty cool character with the best intro line in the game. But thanks again mate.
What makes no sense is that Escharum keeps saying “Atriox is my greatest achievement!” (Me response: “Your” greatest Achievement?!) as I recall in halo wars 2 it is said that Atriox is the founder and the leader of the banished not you!
honestly my headcanon is that Escharum isn't actually Atriox's mentor, he just saw an opportunity to seize power after the explosion and bullshitted this story about mentoring Atriox to persuade his command crew. He is after a ll a very good orator
I unlocked the skull really early on and unless your constantly with marines you don't really notice a difference because the default dialogue is already kinda comedic

Note the following consequences for the following: 1) Attack Infrastructure: These locations are well fortified and defended, even for a spartan they can prove challenging, they are also most likely to result learning of your whereabouts and sending spartan killers your way. 2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox. 3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation. 4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished. 5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans. 6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai) 7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units. How would you choose to combat the banished during the last 87+ days of fighting prior to the re-awakening of the Master Chief? Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.
Doesn't really make sense that the brute could "smell" the spartan saying "we're not alone" he's in an air tight suit of armor? He's been out in the elements for 5 days. That makes no sense.
Mjolnir itself it made of metals and polymers that would emanate their own scent, and the brutes have been fighting Spartans long enough to know it. Real animals would also typically have a sense of smell that keen, so I don't see the issue
@@therookie9276 Actually Spartan IVs hail from all over the UNSC Armed Forces and while their are indeed a good some of former ODST in their ranks, I somehow doubt their are that many. At most their would be a little over 1,015+ Spartan IV's if the UNSC trained 145 candidates each year up to 2559 from the programs first class in 2553 (I know more than 145 candidates were trained from the second class onward but it is just an estimate).
I would like to ask tha halo community in this thread. If you were a Spartan IV deployed to Zeta Halo at the time of these logs. How would you go about carrying out the Rubicon Protocol? The protocol states that following the loss of a substantial number of military assets, all remaining UNSC Forces are to conduct hit and run tactics against banished forces to stop or slow down their operations by any means necessary. Remember that as a spartan you pose the greatest threat to the banished, something they are aware of and have marked you and your spartan brethren as priority targets for elimination. As a Spartan IV your greatest assets besides fellow UNSC servicemen and units are your Augmentations and Mjolnir Armor. From what is known in the lore your spartan IV augmentations provide you with the following benefits. 1) Enhanced visual perception- You can see further and with greater clarity than a normal human. 2) Night Vision capabilities 3) Enhanced Hearing capabilities up to several feet 4) Enhanced healing capabilities 5) Faster and More efficient metabolism 6) Limited level of immunity from most toxins 7) Longer lifespan 8) Enhanced cognitive capabilities and muscular memory. 9) Reengineered Skeletal system (Bones tougher than steel) 10) Enhanced strength and physicality greater than any none augmented soldier (Given that advance weight lifters can lift 2.45x - 2.50x their body weight, I wager your enhanced musculature can enable you to lift anywhere between 2.60x - 2.75x your body weight under normal conditions which is less than a Spartan 2 who can lift 3x their body weight and spartan 3 who would be capable of doing the same. Spartan 4 weight range is anywhere from 224 lbs - 281 lbs depending on gender; to contrast spartan 3's weight is anywhere from 235 lbs - 250 lbs depending on gender and spartan 2's weight is range is anywhere from 242 lbs - 371 lbs depending on gender) 11) Modified Genes (You can say goodbye to genetically inherited ailments, allergies, and hello to stronger body tissues) 12) Hormonal Alterations (Given the role hormones play in our bodies, your bodies self repairing abilities, maintenance, energy production, muscular/skeletal growth regulation, adrenaline production, and other hormonal responses to environmental stimuli would be retooled to serve you better in combat) 13) Enhanced respiratory and circulatory enhancements (Your able to absorb more oxygen, process foreign gas mixtures such as methane and your heart can work harder and contract with greater force. 14) You can maintain a running speed of 24.9 MPH or faster if pushing yourself. 15) Your sleep requirements are a little under 3 hours. The down side is that because of ONI's paranoia you have a data recorder that monitors your health and vitals implanted in your 4th and 5th lumbar region. You also have a cybernetic locator beacon implanted under your lower jaw.
@@SR71ABCD “standing” is a bit of an overstatement, but there are still valuable items available in the remains of the base. If you’ve got the key. And a big shovel. Edit: Halsey’s been living on the Infinity, they just went back to Reach to get the stuffs.
Kinda insane to hear all these weak ass Spartan IV bumbling around getting their ass handed to them. I mean seriously 4 Spartan IV to assassinate the War Chief of the Banished. Are they that stupid? Myriad alone took out 2 teams of 4 Spartan IVs. But it is satisfying to see Master Chief go on the big revenge tour. He took receipts and paid ALL the mofos back. He Godfathered that shit like a Corleone. I mean by end of game you’ve single handedly taken back Reverie, every single FOB, saved all squads, destroyed every Banished outpost including Riven Gate, destroyed Tower AND House of Reckoning, stopped Reformation and killed Escharum, Jega, Chak Lok, Tremonious, Tovarus, Hyperius, Harbinger, and all 15 High Value Targets. Not to mention destroyed all their Propaganda Towers. I mean you completely wiped the Banished off that part of the ring. Jesus fucking Christ. 😂
To be fair master chief is the main protagonist so you can't really have killed him off. On another note if you were a spartan in that situation how long do you think you would have survived? Let me list the things you would have to contend with. 1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly. 2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with) 3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel. 4) Evacuation Actually: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee fleir or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cutscene). 5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass. 6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone. 7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces. 8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 161+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personal trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel. Also note that as per the Rubicon Protocol your mission is to attack banished forces and disrupt their operations at all costs. Tell me how you would survive?
In cut audio logs, Horvath tried to assassinate Escharum a day before Chief's awakening but he of course failed, but I don't think he's dead. Vettel on the other hand...
@@Kid-dv4ir nah because i know that means 343 is gonna replace chief with locke permanantly btw locke is ok in nightfall and the books ive read on it but in 5 he was so bland and the actor who did his mocap was busy with luke cage to voice him like in h2a intro so the recast really took me out of it
Let us be honest the vast majority of the flaws the community sees in Locke is that he is way to serious and doesn't display that much in the way of personality. Which is contrary to what the halo community wanted from Spartan IV's in spartan ops were they actually wanted them to be of the objective focus and serious lot; but hey, I can't really predict what a crazed bipolar community of halo fans truly want myself, so I am not going to bother.
Honestly, these are what made me respect the Spartan-IVs and start seeing them as "true" Spartans for the first time.
I really wish they weren't essentially nerfed in this war just to make the Banished seem like an unstoppable force only the Chief could defeat. They may have brute strength and numbers but even an S 4 in theory and lore should be exceptionally quicker and smarter to put up a huge resistance. In reality this should be a 30-70 ratio of odds instead of an unwinnable battle in vain.
@@idcompany9240I think is that this losing scenario is believable considering that they have been fighting now for like 6 months without any kind of backup and fighting in armors without any kind of repairs or spare parts

At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo.

The Spartan audio logs are really interesting to listen to, probably my favorite set of audio logs. It’s interesting hearing about the early fighting on Zeta halo, actually makes me even more sad now finding those spartans’ corpses :(
interesting though that we don’t get confirmations on the fates of horvath and vettel. given that griffin was still in the tower, we can assume vettel’s plan failed, but horvath is way more open ended, as it seems he’s going to a part of the ring with less banished presence. interesting…
might be continued with Rubicon Protocol, upcoming halo book dropping next year.
Kovan as well.
@@fulcrum6760 Truuuuue.
If you pay attention to the MP armor coatings, it says something along the lines of "Even in death duty does not end" and they're named after each Spartan. It may not be stated but it's HEAVILY implied they died,which is unfortunate
There's an upcoming novel about them, probably detailing their time on Zeta Halo before the event of Infinite.
Horvath better be the focus of a campaign DLC. It’d be sick if he helps Chief explore the other parts of the ring.

@@decade9026 Their is a couple points to address.
1) You are aware jetpacks are not rated for atmospheric re-entry and that its combustibles are likely to cook off during your initial atmospheric re-entry phase.
2) As an un-augmented human your tolerances to extreme heat is not too high so odds are you would suffer a heat stroke midway through you entering the upper atmosphere.
3) As an un-augmented human you also have low tolerances to extreme gravitational forces so entering the ring the way you propose may not be the best for you overall wellbeing, it doesn't help that ODST battle armor is considerably heavier than most standard infantry BDU.
4) While you are not a spartan (Who have a bulls eye painted on them), you are still an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper which is the next most prevalent threat to the banished.

1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly.
2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with)
3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel.
4) Evacuation Actual: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee flier or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cut-scene).
5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass.
6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone.
7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces prior to the detonation.
8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 81+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personnel trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel.
9) Endgame: If you are still alive past those initial 81+ days of continues fighting, you will have to contend with the with an additional 87+ days of combat. At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo.
Tell me how you would survive? Answer the following questions?
Are you a part of a Spartan Fire team or not? (Remember that not all Spartan 3's and 4's operated within a fire team, many specialists usually conduct lone wolf operations)
What Gen 3 Mjolnir Kit would you have?
How would you tackle the banished invasion of Infinity? (Civilian and Naval personnel Evacuation, Engine room defense, Infinity bridge defense, Corridor Defense, Hanger bay Defense, or Counter boarding action operations)
How would you evacuate the Infinity? (Drop Pod, Life Boat, or Drop Ship)
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed behind enemy lines?
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in the middle of a UNSC vs Banished skirmish?
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in a combat free zone?
How would you escape the fracturing of zeta halo as a result of Cortana?
How would you choose to combat the banished during the initial 81+ days of fighting? (Attack infrastructure, Assassinate VIP Targets, Disrupt Supply Lines, Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel, Raid banished convoy's, Conduct espionage, Attack critical banished ops sights). Note the following consequences for the following:
1) Attack Infrastructure: These locations are well fortified and defended, even for a spartan they can prove challenging, they are also most likely to result learning of your whereabouts and sending spartan killers your way.
2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox.
3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation.
4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished.
5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans.
6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai)
7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units.
How would you choose to combat the banished during the last 87+ days of fighting prior to the re-awakening of the Master Chief? Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.
Anyone notice that in the harbinger actually says a quote the gravemind says, “I shall talk, and you shall listen.” Leading to quite a lot of theories of possible flood returning
That’s harbringer voice line I will shall talk and you will listen gave me gravemind vibes :edit it’s literally the same line from the grave mind this is very interesting
That what I said too when I heard that line today.
Remember as well that the ancient humans committed suicide after talking to the primordial. This guy’s brain seemed scrambled after talking to the harbinger
She said it in the same ominous tone the gravemind did as well
you stole this from hidden xperia's video... poser
@@bofasofa9399 not really, since anyone who's played halo 2 would know it's the same line
Honestly seeing the infinity being destroyed in the opening then hearing it through the audio logs is so intriguing to see
All of should've been in the game properly
@@Brandelwynit shouldn’t have happened it in the first place ship it designed to keep the entire species alive while constantly on the run it nearly pierced through a entire forerunner flagship too and took out its shields by the way so Infinity class is op strongest ship in terms of firepower in all of halo and her turrets can one shot CSS battle cruisers and it has thousands of them
@@davidos8760 uhm, or this, yeah. I just meant that everything of value happened off screen in Infinite
In the audio log "Home", Escharum has a premonition where he sees the destruction of Doisac. Holy shit.
Didn’t catch that, thanks
Anyone could've seen this coming, after the war
When im at work i like to listen to all the audio logs from all halos. It keeps me in like auto pilot just doing my work while mentally visualizing what i hear. My favorite are the ODST audio logs.
Infinity's Approach should've been the first level imo. "losing" in the first mission would've been a neat concept.
Fun fact, in the Outpost Intel, it hints at the possibility of surviving ODSTs and possibly 3 more surviving Spartan-IVs, Spartan Jaide, Spartan Rosado, and an unidentified Spartan, but definitely a new Spartan. That brings the total of possible surviving Spartan-IVs up to 9, the other 6 not listed above are Vettel, Kovan, Horvath, Oshiro, Dimka, and a Spartan only known as Intrepid One, who is apart of Horvath’s Fireteam, Fireteam Intrepid

Currently Horvath is all alone and even worse his armor is offline so he’s just a wandering man. Hopefully he makes it out
@ambiguumspectatoremespecta9803
I have about 3 scenarios of how this could go for me, technically a fourth if we want to be all idealist but it's highly unlikely.
The Spartan in Question: Spartan G-032, Oni Section 3 Special Operative, shock and awe/VIP asset removal assignments, most often solo. As with other Gamma's, needs smoothers every 15-24 hours to keep his sanity. Mirage Class/Gen 3 experimental mix tailored for hazardous environments and for going quiet
Scenario 1: G-032, stationed as security detail upon the Infinity, survives the initial ramming. He fights wave after wave of banished boarding forces, making his way towards the bridge to ensure the command staff survives. When the evacuation order is issued he stocks up on smoothers and keeps fighting off banished, helping as many personnel get off the ship as possible, but is unable to reach an escape route himself. The Infinity crashes down, and he is crushed in the rubble, knowing that at least others will fight on.
Time until the Master Chief is recused by Echo-216: 6 months
Scenario 2: As above, but G-032 manages to reach a Drop Pod. He goes into the Ring feet first, linking up with other UNSC forces and establishing an FOB. He survives the shattering of the ring by virtue of luck, being far away from the break when it occurs but he still has to fasten himself down to avoid being blown away by the shockwave.
The following days would be a mad dash across the ring gathering survivors, disrupting local supply chains and reinforcing their initial landing spot, where he is out of his element but like any Spartan he performs nonetheless. Resources are scarce, so Smoothers are being produced at just the right rate to keep him stable. When the Reverie is established he has a choice, but scenario 2 involves him staying close, fighting off local banished forces and setting up the base at the Reverie when the attack commences.
G-032 fights his damn hardest, but he is ultimately beaten, captured and taken to the House of Reckoning to fight for the Banished enjoyment. Deprived of his stabilizing drugs he fights for days with insane ferocity that surprises even the Brutes, but is ultimately slain.
Time until the Master Chief is rescued by Echo-216: Three Months.
Scenario 3: As Scenario 2, except G-032 returns to his roots. Operating away from the Reverie in assassination and disruption missions, he hears about it's destruction far to late. Still, he perseveres, scavenging supplies, linking up with UNSC forces every once in a while. His access to smoothers is critically low, teetering on the edge of mental break but pushing on. Eventually, he pushes a little to far, and the Banished pursuit of him becomes too hot. He manages to kill an unnamed Hand of Atriox warrior before ultimately having to retreat into Forerunner installations in the Ring before overwhelming reinforcements arrive. His body battered and burned, armor damaged, ammo low and only one smoother left, only his illegal pain numbing enhancements allow him to walk away from the fight. G-032's comms go offline as he enters the structure. Marked as MIA.
Time until the Master Chief is rescued by Echo-216: 4 days.
Scenario 4(Wishful thinking): G-032 survives long enough until news of Echarum's death at the hand of the Master Chief reach him. He joins with the UNSC forces and fights along Chief against whatever comes.
Yeah, so either dead or insane in a lost structure by the end if we want to be real about it.
i just hope crimson is still alive and kicking
These audio logs have flushed out the story so well. It feels like a living battlefield

2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox.
3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation.
4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished.
5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans.
6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai)
7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units.
How would you choose to combat the banished during the last 87+ days of fighting prior to the re-awakening of the Master Chief? Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.

Wow those audio logs about the Xalanyns are fascinating
Not going to lie, I personally think Griffin made the right choice sending in a single strike team. The Reverie being overrun was an eventuality. They didn't have the weaponry nor numbers to fight off the entirety of the Banished. Especially since Escherum had the Spartan killers whom we all learn are the most dangerous hunters in the universe and trained to be better. The only issue with the plan was that Escherum predicted the assassination. Whether through recon, invisible elites, or just him simply being a war chief. He had eyes everywhere on the ring. It was no longer an assassination. Just as the Spartans knew that killing Escherum would cause a power vacuum, so did Escherum. Their plan failed because they ran right into a trap because their plan was easily predicted.
I find the audio log's portrayal of spartans to be lacking compared to Halo Reach. Halo Reach's audio logs of spartan 3 teams was so much cooler.

There’s like an entire game worth of cut content here and that is not okay lol
Not cut content. Future content.
@@shockwave6213 a mix of both. 2/3rds of the game was cut down as reported recently by Schreier/Bloomberg. Also in the 2020 trailer that released alongside the gameplay reveal there was a shot of Chief's visor reflecting three red dots, something that we don't ever see in the campaign. Chances are that was when Chief meets Offensive Bias, and was probably supposed to be part of the base campaign but got cut this previous year to get the game out in time.
A game with cortana as the main antagonist was definitely cut.

These are some of there best audio logs
I'm very curious on what secret mission Jameson Locke is on during this. There's a LOT of things that can be done with a Spartan doing God-knows-what under the direct orders and command of ONI. . .
His helmet is on hyperius' shoulder
Operation Breaker Trip can be assumed to be the UNSC effort to establish forward operating bases on Zeta halo in preparation for Infinity and her escort fleet as we know that shortly following its arrival on zeta halo the infinity was rammed by 4 banished dreadnoughts and boarded by banished forces. Not enough time to set up FOB to say the least.
To the halo community on this thread if you were a spartan during the Zeta Halo conflict how long do you think you would have survived?
Let me list the things you would have to contend with.
1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly.
2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with)
3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel.
4) Evacuation Actual: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee flier or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cut-scene).
5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass.
6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone.
7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces prior to the detonation.
8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 81+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personnel trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel.
9) Endgame: If you are still alive past those initial 81+ days of continues fighting, you will have to contend with the with an additional 87+ days of combat. At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo.
Tell me how you would survive? Answer the following questions?
Are you a part of a Spartan Fire team or not? (Remember that not all Spartan 3's and 4's operated within a fire team, many specialists usually conduct lone wolf operations)
What Gen 3 Mjolnir Kit would you have?
How would you tackle the banished invasion of Infinity? (Civilian and Naval personnel Evacuation, Engine room defense, Infinity bridge defense, Corridor Defense, Hanger bay Defense, or Counter boarding action operations)
How would you evacuate the Infinity? (Drop Pod, Life Boat, or Drop Ship)
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed behind enemy lines?
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in the middle of a UNSC vs Banished skirmish?
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in a combat free zone?
How would you escape the fracturing of zeta halo as a result of Cortana?
How would you choose to combat the banished during the initial 81+ days of fighting? (Attack infrastructure, Assassinate VIP Targets, Disrupt Supply Lines, Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel, Raid banished convoy's, Conduct espionage, Attack critical banished ops sights).

I wanted a campaign were we have multiple point of views for fireteam Osiris, blue team, and probably jun because of how the firing range keeps saying his name
One thing that I've just discovered since I've literally just started replaying the game: the collected audio logs carry over into any new game that you play so you don't have to recollect them. The only one that I missed was in the very first level which is the ONLY one that I couldn't go back to. Once I collect that, I'll have them all. I think you have to redo collecting the Spartan Cores and such though.
Lore sure is fascinating!
Fun fact: the elite in banished outpost intel 9 is the same one from the sentry phoenix log in halo wars 2 (hence why he mentions the "unnatural defenses" since his squad was attacked by what seems to be a retriever sentinel in the phoenix log)
Just finished spartan logs, spartan armor can self destruct with a massive explosion (Size of a small nuke in the novels) I dont know why they didn't detonate it to kill as many as possible with them.
Probably just a Spartan II thing

Nobody did that surprisingly
Chief need them upgrades bro
The banished may have killed the spartan IV and III contingent on infinity during their campaign on Zeta Halo. But they also may have created the best and most experienced weapons against them? I am talking about UNSC Marine Corps personnel, If they survive to make it off halo I am sure that many among them would qualify induction into the Spartan IV program. I say that surviving a campaign such as that is more than enough of an accolade, not to mention the tenacity, tactical ingenuity, and leadership skills such a campaign may have fostered within some marines throughout those brutal days. Though it is still a loss of experienced class 1 - 6 Spartan IVs and many Spartan III'S.
so true

8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 81+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personnel trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel.
9) Endgame: If you are still alive past those initial 81+ days of continues fighting, you will have to contend with the with an additional 87+ days of combat. At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo.
Tell me how you would survive? Answer the following questions?
Are you a part of a Spartan Fire team or not? (Remember that not all Spartan 3's and 4's operated within a fire team, many specialists usually conduct lone wolf operations)
What Gen 3 Mjolnir Kit would you have?
How would you tackle the banished invasion of Infinity? (Civilian and Naval personnel Evacuation, Engine room defense, Infinity bridge defense, Corridor Defense, Hanger bay Defense, or Counter boarding action operations)
How would you evacuate the Infinity? (Drop Pod, Life Boat, or Drop Ship)
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed behind enemy lines?
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in the middle of a UNSC vs Banished skirmish?
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in a combat free zone?
How would you escape the fracturing of zeta halo as a result of Cortana?
How would you choose to combat the banished during the initial 81+ days of fighting? (Attack infrastructure, Assassinate VIP Targets, Disrupt Supply Lines, Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel, Raid banished convoy's, Conduct espionage, Attack critical banished ops sights). Note the following consequences for the following:
1) Attack Infrastructure: These locations are well fortified and defended, even for a spartan they can prove challenging, they are also most likely to result learning of your whereabouts and sending spartan killers your way.
2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox.
3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation.
4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished.
5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans.
6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai)
7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units.
How would you choose to combat the banished during the last 87+ days of fighting prior to the re-awakening of the Master Chief? Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.
thing is spartan twos are super super soldiers
spartan 4s are more than anything beefed up special forces
imagine todays delta force but a lot cooler and more effective
“Last ditch effort” mentions helljumpers, is that ODST’s? I was wondering why we never saw any in the game. Also I’d like DLC exploring that Lucas Browning guy, would be interesting to see what the Harbinger did to his mind.
Likely answer is they were all killed off. Of course the out of universe answer being they probably didn't have time to model and add ODSTs to the Marine pool
@@dylanv.4970 Shame. The marines are great but I’d love to be able to call in an ODST squad with full valor or something.
@@OJ9992 Calling in an ODST squad, or even a pelican CAS would have been insane.
Most likely killed off; special forces units would have been top priority for the banished, while a single spartan is deadly on their own; they are far and few in between. ODST, Marine Force Recon, and Asymmetrical Fighting Units while more numerous are no less deadly. Hell during the human covenant war - silent shadow and Brute stalker units like the blood stars were often sent to not only hunt down and kill spartans but also ODST's as they presented a big enough threat.
To the halo community on this thread if you were a spartan during the Zeta Halo conflict how long do you think you would have survived?
Let me list the things you would have to contend with.
1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly.
2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with)
3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel.
4) Evacuation Actual: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee flier or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cut-scene).
5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass.
6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone.
7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction.

I like chiefs.."does she know me?" Like he was holding on to a sliver of hope that he was going to get his cortana back
I love how Chief talks about the weapon in a way that makes you care and worry that it will work out between the two of them even though the weapon doesn't know the Master Chief, has no memory of him.
That connects into the events of Halo: Shadows of Reach.
If the transmission dates are to be belief then from March 03 2560 (Date Rubicon Protocol was declared) to May 28 2560 (Date of Horvaths last transmission) then "Halo: Rubicon Protocol" book by Kelly Gay will take place over the course of 87+ days that followed the fall of the UNSC Reverie Forward Operating Base. But we still have very little Info on the 81 days leading up to the declaration of the Rubicon Protocol.
Horvath's message was at May 26, 2 days before the Master Chief's awakening, so he probably survived, Halopedia even says that
I wonder what fate has befallen Spartan Horvath? Seeing as he was the one out of many few IV Spartans that could carry out what John could do.
1:00:40 From December 13 to 26 is 13 days Spartan Horvath; Granted with the damage the ring took from Cortana's little stunt the day and night cycle on the ring must be pretty out of whack.
50:12 Oh, I like her; I am going to guess that she was a former helljumper. Those lovable psychos always did enjoy ramming their pods into enemy armor. That or maybe marine force recon like Spartan Madson, though the latter would not build your grit as much as the ODST's.
Theo suffered heavy casualties and loses but he kept fighting.

Hi, love your content
I'm wondering if we can collab on the two Halo Wars game audios
I make biligual voiceline compilations for command and conquer games, and I find Halo wars' audio lines to be interesting as well
However, I've yet to extract those files
I'm sure we can collab to get'em all, just let me know if you are interested
Also there was a contradiction, a normal marine said "oni reports on the infinity said zeta halo isnt like the others" and then 1:13:00 in the spartan (who would have alot more clearance and more knowledge) says "all this time we assumed this ring was like the others, what if we were mistaken?"
Perhaps the normal marine isn't so normal? Just a thought, but if a marine had access to oni reports, it's likely that marine was actually an oni field agent. A lot of oni intel is only accessible to field agents and even many spartans don't have access to it.
@@DailySquadProductions I doubt ONI shares anything with Spartans at all, given that if anyone could successfully revolt against ONI in the event that they get smelly intel, it's Spartans
@@mercury2157 true, spartans were initially brought in as a point and shoot type weapon to quell insurrections, dont know why they'd be cleared for ONI level clearance
Actually how much a spartan know compared to any soldier in the UNSC Armed Forces is dependent on their clearance level and not every spartan has the same clearance level.

3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel.
4) Evacuation Actual: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee flier or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cut-scene).
5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass.
6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone.
7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces prior to the detonation.
8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 81+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personnel trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel.
9) Endgame: If you are still alive past those initial 81+ days of continues fighting, you will have to contend with the with an additional 87+ days of combat. At this point UNSC forces have shrunk down to small pockets of scattered marines and spartans, it is also at this point where the hand of Atriox would be at its most dangerous as due to the severe lower quantities of spartans left alive on the ring, they are able to afford to dispatch more than one spartan killer to eliminate any given spartan. Your orders as per the Rubicon protocol is to stop or slow the banished by any means necessary and prohibit the Banished from fully weaponizing halo.
Tell me how you would survive? Answer the following questions?
Are you a part of a Spartan Fire team or not? (Remember that not all Spartan 3's and 4's operated within a fire team, many specialists usually conduct lone wolf operations)
What Gen 3 Mjolnir Kit would you have?
How would you tackle the banished invasion of Infinity? (Civilian and Naval personnel Evacuation, Engine room defense, Infinity bridge defense, Corridor Defense, Hanger bay Defense, or Counter boarding action operations)
How would you evacuate the Infinity? (Drop Pod, Life Boat, or Drop Ship)
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed behind enemy lines?
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in the middle of a UNSC vs Banished skirmish?
What would you do if your evacuation craft landed in a combat free zone?
How would you escape the fracturing of zeta halo as a result of Cortana?
How would you choose to combat the banished during the initial 81+ days of fighting? (Attack infrastructure, Assassinate VIP Targets, Disrupt Supply Lines, Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel, Raid banished convoy's, Conduct espionage, Attack critical banished ops sights). Note the following consequences for the following:
1) Attack Infrastructure: These locations are well fortified and defended, even for a spartan they can prove challenging, they are also most likely to result learning of your whereabouts and sending spartan killers your way.
2) Assassinate VIP Targets: VIP banished personnel are normally well defended by local escorts and bodyguards, they are also most likely to be skilled combatants in their own right and if killed could result in banished command marking you as a high value target for all banished forces in your area up to and including the Hand of Atriox.
3) Disrupt Supply Lines: This can severely impact banished operations but might also result in more banished forces being deployed in your area of operation.
4) Coordinate Ops with surviving UNSC command personnel: This can be a double edge sword as on one hand you would be able to conduct your ops with tactical and strategic support from other UNSC forces, but you would also lose your autonomy and could possibly be deployed on a mission that might deliver you into the hands of the banished.
5) Raid Banished Convoy's: This can help you, your fire team, or UNSC command acquire and procure necessary supplies to fuel your operations on the ring. However this can also result in a potential ambushed by banished forces targeting spartans.
6) Conduct Espionage: Conducting surveillance on enemy activity is a must in combat as it can aid in planning and coordination, however it can also result in being led into potentially premeditated enemy ambushes that could get you killed. (Ask Spartan Bonita Stone how that ended up? Oh, right- she was ambushed by Jega Rdomnai)
7) Attack Critical Banished Ops Sights: This would have massive repercussions for the banished if successful but such objectives are usually well fortified and defended by senior and elite operations units.
How would you choose to combat the banished during the last 87+ days of fighting prior to the re-awakening of the Master Chief? Remember that at this point the vast majority of UNSC forces have been whittled down to a few scattered on uncoordinated units, the bulk of your fellow spartans that didn't die on infinity, on their way to the rings surfaces, have all but been killed in action with few exceptions. As a surviving spartan you represent a great threat to the Banished and vice versa as their forces would be free to hunt you down with minimal interference from a third party. Any sightings or suspicions of your presence anywhere on the ring by banished forces my result in a manhunt. Would you choose to regroup and reorganized remaining UNSC forces into a small resistance, continue disrupting supply lines, attacking infrastructure, conducting surveillance on the enemy, and killing VIP targets- remember you are not the Master Chief, you won't be toyed with, or watched from a distance for amusement and as such the banished have no qualms about turning you into a none-survivor.
56:23-57:02 was probably the scariest thing to hear a spartan running for their lives. Haven't gotten anymore than 5 ring fall logs. These logs make me sad i couldn't fight w/ these spartans. MIA

Infinity being attacked: 😰
The music: 🕺💃🪩
So no information on how the weapon reached the surface? Chief didn't leave the infinity so it can't have been him
The ship probably just transmitted her into the ring's systems.
If I remember correctly the spartan contingent on infinity was made up of Spartan IVs and Spartan III's.
There are no mentions of Spartan-IIIs being aboard the Infinity at this time. The closest we know of is Lopis Ferrets and even then they never boarded because they were in the middle of a deep cover Operation.
If there are other Spartan-III teams or Headhunters they could've been reassigned or deployed on other operations, perhaps Op: BREAKER TRIP (that Locke was also assigned) or Op: KICKSTAND, or perhaps something else that is yet to be written.

35:44 unggoy for the win 🏆
Why does jega sound like that in the audio logs
I just hope captain lasky and captain lockes team aka buck survived :/ cause laskys last com was interrupted while he was going to the surface and the banished where shooting down pods going to the surface:/ at that time :/ and then spartan killers had captain lockes helmet attached to his shoulder :/ so idk 🤷 maybe a prisoner.
Well Buck is back with Alpha-Nine so he probably survived no matter what.
Browning is my favorite character in the logs
20:08 I swear Dr. Halsey is the doting mother from tartarus.
Jega's voice in spartan audio logs sounds high pitched... Hm...
Hmm? Spartan sorel voice sounds like a character I know from another game
But sometimes in games can't really tell who's voice sounds familiar though right.
But halo infinite is doing pretty well for now and the audio logs are pretty swell.
The voice actor is Imari Williams, he also voices Hyperius.
Ah! Good to know.
And 2nd Imari Williams is pretty much the same voice actor from a particular game called gears of War 3: Raams shadow (DLC) i believe that he played Michael Barrick a pretty cool character with the best intro line in the game.
But thanks again mate.
@@spartan_man1220 Your welcome.
What makes no sense is that Escharum keeps saying “Atriox is my greatest achievement!” (Me response: “Your” greatest Achievement?!) as I recall in halo wars 2 it is said that Atriox is the founder and the leader of the banished not you!
honestly my headcanon is that Escharum isn't actually Atriox's mentor, he just saw an opportunity to seize power after the explosion and bullshitted this story about mentoring Atriox to persuade his command crew. He is after a ll a very good orator
Well escharum trained atriox and made him who is
Atriox is the leader of the Banished, but Escharum was his mentor; two different concepts
@@dsdy1205 the Encyclopedia confirms Escharum was Atriox's mentor

Should've put the audio logs in an order that made more sense of the story, but thanks anyway
I shall talk and you shall listen
Dude the music is literally louder than the audio logs I can't understand
You need your ears checked
Go guy
Doesn't really make sense that the brute could "smell" the spartan saying "we're not alone" he's in an air tight suit of armor? He's been out in the elements for 5 days. That makes no sense.
Brutes have a strong sense if smell
Duh
I imagine the suits have accumulated a collage of smells from the elements that probably gave off a different smell from the evironment.
Mjolnir itself it made of metals and polymers that would emanate their own scent, and the brutes have been fighting Spartans long enough to know it. Real animals would also typically have a sense of smell that keen, so I don't see the issue
19:17 wait, they are still ODST ¿??????
Yeah there is actually a lot of ODST, tho most were wiped out (3000+) a lot became spartan IVs
@@therookie9276 Actually Spartan IVs hail from all over the UNSC Armed Forces and while their are indeed a good some of former ODST in their ranks, I somehow doubt their are that many. At most their would be a little over 1,015+ Spartan IV's if the UNSC trained 145 candidates each year up to 2559 from the programs first class in 2553 (I know more than 145 candidates were trained from the second class onward but it is just an estimate).
@@ambiguumspectatoremespecta9803 yeah that too, most of them all died by the spartan hunters

Music is distracting
I would like to ask tha halo community in this thread. If you were a Spartan IV deployed to Zeta Halo at the time of these logs. How would you go about carrying out the Rubicon Protocol?
The protocol states that following the loss of a substantial number of military assets, all remaining UNSC Forces are to conduct hit and run tactics against banished forces to stop or slow down their operations by any means necessary.
Remember that as a spartan you pose the greatest threat to the banished, something they are aware of and have marked you and your spartan brethren as priority targets for elimination.
As a Spartan IV your greatest assets besides fellow UNSC servicemen and units are your Augmentations and Mjolnir Armor. From what is known in the lore your spartan IV augmentations provide you with the following benefits.
1) Enhanced visual perception- You can see further and with greater clarity than a normal human.
2) Night Vision capabilities
3) Enhanced Hearing capabilities up to several feet
4) Enhanced healing capabilities
5) Faster and More efficient metabolism
6) Limited level of immunity from most toxins
7) Longer lifespan
8) Enhanced cognitive capabilities and muscular memory.
9) Reengineered Skeletal system (Bones tougher than steel)
10) Enhanced strength and physicality greater than any none augmented soldier (Given that advance weight lifters can lift 2.45x - 2.50x their body weight, I wager your enhanced musculature can enable you to lift anywhere between 2.60x - 2.75x your body weight under normal conditions which is less than a Spartan 2 who can lift 3x their body weight and spartan 3 who would be capable of doing the same. Spartan 4 weight range is anywhere from 224 lbs - 281 lbs depending on gender; to contrast spartan 3's weight is anywhere from 235 lbs - 250 lbs depending on gender and spartan 2's weight is range is anywhere from 242 lbs - 371 lbs depending on gender)
11) Modified Genes (You can say goodbye to genetically inherited ailments, allergies, and hello to stronger body tissues)
12) Hormonal Alterations (Given the role hormones play in our bodies, your bodies self repairing abilities, maintenance, energy production, muscular/skeletal growth regulation, adrenaline production, and other hormonal responses to environmental stimuli would be retooled to serve you better in combat)
13) Enhanced respiratory and circulatory enhancements (Your able to absorb more oxygen, process foreign gas mixtures such as methane and your heart can work harder and contract with greater force.
14) You can maintain a running speed of 24.9 MPH or faster if pushing yourself.
15) Your sleep requirements are a little under 3 hours.
The down side is that because of ONI's paranoia you have a data recorder that monitors your health and vitals implanted in your 4th and 5th lumbar region. You also have a cybernetic locator beacon implanted under your lower jaw.
We might find out since the new Halo book coming out in a few months is called Halo: The Rubicon Protocol.
Next time, mute the music.
So quiet...
So Dr. Halsey lives.... on the glassed Reach
Halsey’s done…a lot since she “died” on Reach.
A **lot** :/
(If it makes you feel better, she did eventually loose an arm tho!)
@@renecardoir7553 I know the lost arm part from Halo 4 and 5 but why travel back to Reach where its all glassed ,Castle base is still standing?
@@SR71ABCD “standing” is a bit of an overstatement, but there are still valuable items available in the remains of the base. If you’ve got the key. And a big shovel.
Edit: Halsey’s been living on the Infinity, they just went back to Reach to get the stuffs.
@@renecardoir7553 And in halo5, one guardians still in one piece inside the glassed planet, so that mean Halsey can find something good in Reach
Kinda insane to hear all these weak ass Spartan IV bumbling around getting their ass handed to them. I mean seriously 4 Spartan IV to assassinate the War Chief of the Banished. Are they that stupid? Myriad alone took out 2 teams of 4 Spartan IVs. But it is satisfying to see Master Chief go on the big revenge tour. He took receipts and paid ALL the mofos back. He Godfathered that shit like a Corleone. I mean by end of game you’ve single handedly taken back Reverie, every single FOB, saved all squads, destroyed every Banished outpost including Riven Gate, destroyed Tower AND House of Reckoning, stopped Reformation and killed Escharum, Jega, Chak Lok, Tremonious, Tovarus, Hyperius, Harbinger, and all 15 High Value Targets. Not to mention destroyed all their Propaganda Towers. I mean you completely wiped the Banished off that part of the ring. Jesus fucking Christ. 😂
To be fair master chief is the main protagonist so you can't really have killed him off. On another note if you were a spartan in that situation how long do you think you would have survived?
Let me list the things you would have to contend with.
1) Banished ramming of Infinity: Assuming you weren't anywhere near the hangar bay's where those 4 dreadnoughts hit you wouldn't have gotten killed instantly.
2) Banished Invasion of Infinity: Following the ramming of Infinity you would have to follow typical security procedures and defend the ship at all cost from wave after wave of banished forces which seeing as it only took 4 minutes for Infinity to fall is a metric crap load (Also their is no running away for from all of it, you wouldn't have been selected for the spartan 4 program in the first place if you had been found to be weak willed to begin with)
3) Evacuation Protocol: Assuming you survive the ramming of the infinity and survived defending your post from waves of banished troops; your next objective would be to fight your way through corridors packed with banished infantry to the nearest drop pod, drop ship, or escape pod and evac the ship. As a spartan however you are expected to prioritize the evacuation of critical naval personnel so odds are you will have to give up your seat on a escape vessel to potential VIP personnel.
4) Evacuation Actually: This is a real wildcard. Assuming you boarded an evacuation craft in all the mayhem aboard Infinity you better pray that a banshee fleir or phantom doesn't spot your escape craft and blast it to hell as it takes off (As they were seen doing in the initial cutscene).
5) Evacuation Ringfall: Assuming your escape craft wasn't destroyed by banish space forces the moment it attempted to leave you will be presented with another wildcard of a situation. That situation being surviving the descent onto Zeta Halo. As stated in the audiologs banished banshee squadrons and AAA batteries where already deployed on the ring and where shooting down escape craft left and right. Note that UNSC air forces were spread thin so your dropping into hell with no cover and enemy guns aimed on your ass.
6) Ringfall: After landing if by some miracle you survived the clusterfuck above you would need to endure the wave of banished forces marching on your position if you landed behind enemy lines, join the ongoing conflict between the UNSC and Banished forces if you landed in the thick of battle, or make your way to friendly forces if you landed in a combat free zone.
7) Ringfall - Zeta Halo Fracture: Another wildcard and one that is more dependent on luck more than anything else, if you were to find yourself anywhere along the rings collateral zone that was destroyed following Cortana's little stunt on the silent auditorium, then run like hell otherwise you would be gobbled up in the ensuing destruction. Note that their was mention of sentinels attacking UNSC forces.
8) Battle for Zeta Halo: If you somehow survived all of that next you would have to contend with 161+ days of continuous fighting against an enemy with Space, Ground, and Air superiority. Then their is the fact that as a spartan you would be viewed as a high priority target for elimination by the Hand of Atriox and Blood Stars (Two organizations with personal trained to kill spartans), also you would have to contend with hostile sentinel forces and special operations banished personnel. Also note that as per the Rubicon Protocol your mission is to attack banished forces and disrupt their operations at all costs.
Tell me how you would survive?
In cut audio logs, Horvath tried to assassinate Escharum a day before Chief's awakening but he of course failed, but I don't think he's dead. Vettel on the other hand...
Who tf would want to see a video of just audio
3:31 NO! thats the last guy we need here….
He exactly what we need. Locke isn't as bad as the fangirls make him out to be
@@Kid-dv4ir nah because i know that means 343 is gonna replace chief with locke permanantly btw locke is ok in nightfall and the books ive read on it but in 5 he was so bland and the actor who did his mocap was busy with luke cage to voice him like in h2a intro so the recast really took me out of it
@@calebkent6706 he is pretty good just need a few touch ups to make him better
Let us be honest the vast majority of the flaws the community sees in Locke is that he is way to serious and doesn't display that much in the way of personality. Which is contrary to what the halo community wanted from Spartan IV's in spartan ops were they actually wanted them to be of the objective focus and serious lot; but hey, I can't really predict what a crazed bipolar community of halo fans truly want myself, so I am not going to bother.
@@ambiguumspectatoremespecta9803 yeah, in spartan ops only palmer and thorne were good, others were goofy af
