Theoretically due to the nature of space combat it can turn and fire the ventral energy projector at other ships in space combat. Because it wasn't terrifying enough as is.
Raving Rando Could be a great idea for a spin off. You start off dogfighting in a long sword, and as you go along you could go do ground attack missions and air battles, progressing up from a long sword to a sabre to eventually a broadsword. That'd be awesome.
Alex Gellel this would be a game that would aptly flesh out the space battles in Halo. As well as give more concrete in- game descriptions of the various ships that we see in cutscenes and backgrounds during gameplay.
That’s why I love Halo so much. What game or series has so many recognizable/ iconic ships with a plethora of different configurations like halo does? Such a beautiful series.
Think whatever you want but you must admit that the covenant can name ships. Long Night of Solace is such an elegant yet epic name that is fitting for a ship of it’s size and perhaps even alludes to what the covenant initially thought the ship would do.
Shame also because it didn't need to stick around after you shut off the comm system on the corvette. Savannah should have pulled out, and that would have also given the writers the chance to have it appear later in the campaign maybe at New Alexandria instead.
Regardless of whether you play Halo or not, like or hate the Covenant's ship design, I think we can all agree that "Long Night of Solace" is a helluva good name for a warship
The super-carrier is one of the most surprising sci-fi ships I've ever seen, like it can go kilometer-to-kilometer with battleships from the Imperium of Man
I love the CSO ship designs. All their vehicles were very well designed and looked awesome. I always say if I was in charge of any faction in the Halo Universe, it would be without a doubt, the CSO.
its a shame how games are going nowadays, all the old halos paid so much attention to little details and things that are interactable all over the map, the items, the plants, the water, just everything, the destruction physics for vehicles, where you shoot them and how that area breaks up or something falls off, nobody really does that anymore
The 'Long Night of Solace' is large city sized. It easily could have served as an Ark ship or a place one could live their whole life in...if it was retrofitted for civilian life and not military.
I heard that it could also Carry Several Dozen SDV Covenant Corvettes (Hence how the Corvettes were able to get into the Epsilon Eridani System without being detected) In much the same way that the CAS Assault Carrier and the UNSC Infinity can Carry multiple Frigate sized Warships.
Aku Dark lord It depends how you define the word Shield. Larger Capital Ships have the space equivalent of Energy Shields or Over Shields. Standard Shields strengthen the Hull Plating. The Corvette lacks Energy Overshields.
The CSO-Class Supercarriers as a matter of fact carried 90,000 - 110,000 Covenant troops. While the CAS-Class Assault Carriers carried 20,000 - 30,000 Covenant troops. Its crazy to even think if even the UNSC Infinity which holds 17,000 UNSC troops can take on a CSO, but would have a 60% chance at destroying a CAS.
The Infinity has never taken on a CSO and if it did the Infinity has a very low chance of making it out alive. Energy shields are weak towards plasma based weapons and getting near a heavily gunned ship like the CSO is suicide. The only reason they were able to take one of those down was because the team hide themselves on a Corvette that had clearance to dock the Supercarrier. I do like the idea of using a slipspace engine to warp a portion of the Supercarrier to another location in space. What I want to know is where the heck are the other CSO supercarriers at right now. It was mentioned that there were a few of them that used to guard High Charity.
@@Kyte001 it is unknown on where the other CSO-Class Supercarriers may be at this point. I am stating from my point of view however that there is no way there is only one CSO in existence. There has to be in my perspective at least 20 more ships of the same class other than the Long Night of Solace. And with your point on the UNSC Infinity taking on a CSO-Class Supercarrier is indeed extreme suicide. Considering if you were aboard the Infinity which holds 17,000 UNSC troops, you would be going against the largest Covenant ship carrying 90,000 - 110,000 Covenant troops. The Infinity would definetly be toast after a few hours.
@@madness0169the Sublime Trescendance is another CSO, he was the flagship of Imperial Admiral Xytan'Jar Wattinree, but he was also destroy, by a NOVA Bomb this time
It's doubtful there were ever more than a small handful. Just scaling off of the official dimensions, CSO is literally the size of about 140 assault carriers in terms of mass, and the assault carriers never seemed to be quite that common. This indicates that the construction of a single super-carrier like this would have been a MAJOR undertaking, and spent materials and effort that could instead have been used on hundreds of smaller ships.
Have you ever done anything on the Arcadia, the death shadow class battleship or dreadnaught from Captain Harlock? It's a very interesting ship and very powerful.
And all it took was a frigate, 2 Spartans, a small platoon of marines, and a stolen corvette to make most of it disappear forever. We need another ship like this in future halo games. A ship that strikes fear in the hearts of humanity.
Depending on your definition of ship, the strongest contenders I can think of would be either Starkiller Base (Star Wars) or the Necron World Engine (40k), both of which are planets outfitted with engines as to be mobile. The latter is wholly artificial, and might thus be easier to label as a ship.
Didn't Chief casually board one after narrowly escaping Halos destruction on a Longsword space combat vehicle in the events of First Strike immediately following Combat Evolved?
I always did like the look of Covenant ships. Jagged edges and blocky ships may be the current "hip" style of space ships but sleek and curvy ships like these look nice. I do prefer the Assault carrier and the regular cruiser though. These HUUUGE ships are a bit too over the top for my liking.
There is a reason that design is common throughout many unrelated universes. Aerodynamic designs in space are useless since there is no aero and are space inefficient.
Would it be possible to have you do a description of some of the vessels from Legend of the Galactic Heroes? I'd like to no more about them. Some potential examples - Brunhild - Hyperion - Asgrimm - Ajax - Iserlohn Fortress - Geiersburg Fortress
the Super MAC defenses around reach (shoots slugs roughly 10x larger than normal MAC) were capable of destroying this class of ship in 2 shots. Reaches fall was traumatic not only because of its significance to humans but also that it represented the forefromt of human technology and could not hold of the covenant at the beginning of the war
It was not just that. Reach was effectively Earth's last line of defense as it was home to most of their war-industrial complex and as such had most of the remaining military assets near it beyond those at Earth. In fact ships were told to not jump to Reach or Earth directly under the Cole protocols (due to Reach's designation as a core world and would thus fall under articles 1 and 2). Though the crystal slipped into the reactor manifold of the UNSA Iroquois was likely how the Covenant found Reach. Pretty much this was the nail in the coffin and it was a matter of time till Earth fell if the great schism had not happened.
Late to the party BUT I think we found a contender for something that can go toe to toe with an Imperium of Man battleship. 30m of armour, extensive shielding, weapons that can touch 6 digit range... I'd quite like to see this go up against a Gloriana.
@@mattbristerpostma3742 I mean I'd love to debate this one for the novelty; I'm usually the one in 40k's corner. But a cruiser's macro battery is putting like 3.7 teratons of firepower per cannon per salvo, with dozens of cannon making up a battery and several batteries making up a broadside acc. to (RogueTrader core rules). And that's only the macro half the broadside- lunars also have lances. So... I mean I'd LOVE to try and debate it in favour of the halo ship, for a change... but... :'D :'D :'D
honestly, not even the ZPM enhanced hive would stand a chance. The covvie carrier would just hack it to bits with the energy projectors while the massive raw bulk of the carriers defensive options tank whatever firepower the hive has. It took a full broadside afterall just to subdue a solitary BC-304 which was not ZPM enhanced
CSO :Mainly because the wraith Don't have shields and probably get destroyed by the cso's on board weapons and darts would just get torn apart by the covenant seraph fighters,sorry but the only chances the wraith would have in this scenario is if they had there overwhelming numbers
I think the SuperHive might stand a chance. If only cause it got a regenerating superhull, but thats the only thing it has going for it. Damn thing could tank drones and Asgard beams after all.
1:09 i know that melody from somewhere but can't remember from where.. ugh anyone knows? Sounds Red Faction'ish but .. idk (and that's deffinitley not from Battlezone 2 i checked the soundtrack and there is nothing remotely similar.)
What creeps me out the most about this fussock is, that short of the amount of resources put on a single ship of that tonnage, I really can't see any exploitable weak spots or easy counters to it. Maybe an volley from an orbital defense platform array... But the CSO's capitain would need to be plain dumb to expose himself to that. Assuming that it can seal off breached sections of the hull, even a heavy-caliber MAC volley might not do the trick
I really like the CSO class, but never was the biggest fan of the class looking like the CAS but bigger. My personal headcannon is that only the most important and highest ranked Elites have the honor to receive one. And since there are so few, when an Elite commander get one, he is allowed to personalize/customize it a bit so that each one has a distinctive look, be it paint scheme, decals, or maybe more extensive modifications. Maybe the commander of the Long Night of Solace just really liked the CAS class design, so he modeled his ship after the CAS so that's why it looks like one. And when a new commander takes over a CSO I guess they would either keep the ship the same, or refit it to look different. Maybe Xytan War'Watinree being the highest ranked elite with his awesome silver and gold armor, commanded a really cool and unique looking silver and gold CSO.
I'd like to know how it would stack up against a Super Star Destroyer (Executor or Eclipse (19.000 meters/17.500 meters). Both are dwarfed by the CSO Class Supercarrier by at least 10.000 meters, but the CSO Class Supercarrier wasn't specifically built for combat. The Eclipse and Executor on the other hand were superweapons, especially the Eclipse with its superlaser with 2/3 of the power of the Death Star.
It's scary honestly, the Covenant didnt even try and it nearly annihlated Humanity but got obliterated from within. It had most like 100,000s of vessels or even more.
Fantastic, the scale of the ships in Halo are just massive compared to other universes, I think even the UNSC frigates would be fairly big compares to other similar class vessels in other fiction and their the smaller end of ships in Halo
One of the biggest classes in 40k (or technically 30k) was the Gloriana-class ships that served as flagships for each of the Primarchs. Each was custom built to the Legion it would serve, and the biggest of them was the Ultramarines' one, at 26 kilometers in length. Which is as it turns out a bit smaller than this one. Then again, Eldar Craftworlds and the Imperial Fists' Phalax are far bigger.
Well compared to wh40k and star wars they are pretty small for example the average wh40k imperial escort destroyer is larger then UNSC marathon class heavy cruisers .
Couple of questions I need answers for... 1: how many CSO were ever developed? 2: why didn't the prophet of regret have one? 3: are there any left in 2558?
1. Six were present escorting High Charity and they were more present in other fleets so we can assume less than 100. Exact numbers is unknown. 2. The Prophet didn't know Earth was the last Planet for Humanity, so he didn't bring any Supercarriers because he wasn't expecting humanity to be there. 3. What's left of the Covenant could have at least 1 or 2 while the Arbiter could have more. Again exact numbers are unknown.
The only Covenant constructs bigger than the Super-Carrier were the refueling and repair station Unyielding Hierophant and the Prophets mobile station High Charity.
Multiple were built, only two have been named but it is said that a few were in the High Charity defense fleet. As for how many survived.... Eh. I haven't a clue.
Good thing all these CSO ships were destroyed by the UNSC infinity's construction, these things could tear it apart. And am I the only one who didn't know the Supercarrier was actually called 'Long Night of Solace'
This ship is so huge, that if you turned it on it's end; it would stand slightly taller and wider than the Rakatan Star Forge from Star Wars.
Theoretically due to the nature of space combat it can turn and fire the ventral energy projector at other ships in space combat. Because it wasn't terrifying enough as is.

Smaller carrier to infiltrate Earth a bit easier , Supercarrier is too big of a target , Regret's purpose wasnt to fight , it was to infiltrate
That's the dumbest comment I've ever seen there is only one supercarrier and it was already destroyed by the time the covenant found earth
@@rhodamyersparker5006 That's not true.
I think that 90ft thick armor is a bit of a stretch lmao.
for a ship 30km long? nah
Petition for a game where we get to fly one of these
Didn't Kat say that in New Alexandria?
imagine how long it took to build this
Great video. thanks
battlestar galactica or battlestar pegasus next??
Fantastic, the scale of the ships in Halo are just massive compared to other universes, I think even the UNSC frigates would be fairly big compares to other similar class vessels in other fiction and their the smaller end of ships in Halo
Warhammer 40k?
the Agamembar Halo and 40k boast some of the largest ships in science fiction, most of which just sound economically ruinous.
One of the biggest classes in 40k (or technically 30k) was the Gloriana-class ships that served as flagships for each of the Primarchs. Each was custom built to the Legion it would serve, and the biggest of them was the Ultramarines' one, at 26 kilometers in length. Which is as it turns out a bit smaller than this one. Then again, Eldar Craftworlds and the Imperial Fists' Phalax are far bigger.
Well compared to wh40k and star wars they are pretty small for example the average wh40k imperial escort destroyer is larger then UNSC marathon class heavy cruisers .
wasnt the gloriana 80 km ?
Couple of questions I need answers for...
1: how many CSO were ever developed?
2: why didn't the prophet of regret have one?
3: are there any left in 2558?
1. Six were present escorting High Charity and they were more present in other fleets so we can assume less than 100. Exact numbers is unknown.
2. The Prophet didn't know Earth was the last Planet for Humanity, so he didn't bring any Supercarriers because he wasn't expecting humanity to be there.
3. What's left of the Covenant could have at least 1 or 2 while the Arbiter could have more. Again exact numbers are unknown.
Sidonia - Knights of Sidnonia - I've always be curious of what the mass of rock is on yhe ship. Thanks in advance
Watching these videos about halo. Really can't wait for Halo: Warfleets to comeout.
I really want revell to make a model kit for this ship and the other halo spacecraft. maybe a 1:10000 scale
Are there any CSOs still in existence?
How about the Arcadia from Captain Hallock...?
Can u do a video on the massive forerunner contructs?
Could you do the Marathon class?
The only Covenant constructs bigger than the Super-Carrier were the refueling and repair station Unyielding Hierophant and the Prophets mobile station High Charity.
I wonder what a CSO size spirit of fire would look like. Good lord talk about a “support ship”
can you do videos on all the other types of covenant ships
How about the Anodyne Spirit, the Forerunner Dreadnought?
Such a powerful ship wow
How many cso's were built and are left after the covenant war?
Multiple were built, only two have been named but it is said that a few were in the High Charity defense fleet. As for how many survived.... Eh. I haven't a clue.
Can you do the UNSC Infinity from Halo & the Endeavor class starship from Star Trek Online?
Good thing all these CSO ships were destroyed by the UNSC infinity's construction, these things could tear it apart. And am I the only one who didn't know the Supercarrier was actually called 'Long Night of Solace'
Dominarch421 here some that I know of
2 or more CSO supercarriers guarding high charity
Long night of solace
Sublime transcendence
can you do one with the TCS Tiger's Claw from wing commander?
Please for the love of God do a GLORIANA CLASS BATTLESHIP
