I'll go ahead and pin a comment here for anyone who has disagreements with this match's outcome- Both of these factions come from totally different backgrounds filled with lore that I couldn't entirely explore in this one quick video. As such, the winner is determined simply by which NPC's won. I could have done better showing this, as a few of the large scale battles may have felt inconclusive. I could have very easily added a few more Covenant soldiers and let them win, but I gave it to the Combine this time. Still, like I said, either side could win this.
Maybe I'll remake this later, I don't know.
woldent there also be flood? do a combine vs flood vid
@@sauerkids9254 I have thought about it. I'll see.
bad frame rate paired with the covenant AI not reacting in most cases or reacting too slowly made these fights kinda weird. (the combine also had a weird but rather accurate flechette rifle with the model of the Pulse rifle)
@@4T3hM4kr0n correct
I mean. You kinda just acted like the scarab no longer existed, after it killed that strider. The scarab is still there, and would probably finish off the rest of the combine's forces. I'd say that last round is a covenant win.
4:30 Rest In Peace to that brave CP officer gong up against an Elite like that.
A Zealot no less.
big ass lizard alien who just killed 5 of them
imma wack it in the back
10:54 "The Combine win!"
The Covenant: we lost...lets just glass the planet like the others
The combine would most likely destroy their capital ships tho
the combine would destroy their entire fleet
the combine are the worst kind of enemy to the covenant, in half life its all a backwatr garrison, but the combine take whatever is best from a conquest and use it, now what do the combine lack?a a way to travel in a universe fast, what do the covies have? slipspace
whats worse the covenant dont even understand most of their tech and to improve on it its sacrilegious, guess who likes to thinker with stuff and juice it up as much as they can
The covenant wouldn’t stand a chance
The Combine: "so what got you beat?"
The Covenant: "a human"
The Combine: "does it using a full-body armor?"
The Covenant: "yep."
The Combine: "heh same."

Imagine the covenant invading during the 7 hour war
Oh shit...
you have provoked a gang war.
7 hour war more like 7 year war both combine and covenant is op
probably would've glassed the planet while the combine and humans fought. No forerunner artifacts/structures to secure, no reason to deploy ground troops
@@greenelmo7678 Except humans are the reclaimers. Their Forerunners AI would've show this to the Covenant and they would've thought there was some kind of really important Forerunner secret on Earth to be reclaimed so they'd protect the planet from the Combine but also fight us probably
Imagine the flood attacked the combine. The flood would be pretty terrifying if they got their hands on that universe traveling tech
I'm pretty sure the Flood is susceptible to getting disintegrated. Sure they'd have a hard time but the Combine are literally interdimensional
We don't know the full power of the combine, they could beat / have beaten the flood in another universe, and maybe the creation of the combine came from the precursors instead of them turning into flood when the forerunners had killed them, because the floods existence is to punish living species because of the betrayal from the forerunners, and if the precursors created the combine they're essentially doing what the flood do, just not assimilating biomass, but enslavement and control.
The Combine would be pretty terrifying if they got their hands on an all-consuming parasite. I'm not even sure if their interests would be in conflict, they just have different methods to achieve the same goal: TOTAL ASSIMILATION. Being 'corrupted' by the Flood simply means the Combine can do that much, much faster and more efficiently.
the combine would annihilate them to the last infected before they even have the chance for that
The combine would probably try to enslave it, fail, then one shot the flood.

@@quempire2656 Civil Protection officer rofl
I like to imagine the resistance would just give up if this happened lol
watch it unfold
Every body gangster until the combine sends a full fledged invasion force back to earth
Probably if another empire (even in HL lore, something like race X) found earth combine would most likely ask for help from recently occupied humanity, and the combine would realistically win, uprising would just be delayed I think.
@KatarinaBohtana I'm sure if race x were to return and the local forces couldn't handle it I'm sure the combine would recall the invasion force that invaded earth
*Don't forget that even if the Combine loses Earth, they have PLENTY of other planets to hold out on. And they could also turn any captured or deceased Covenant species's into synths as well as reengineer Covenant weapons.*
if i could somehow show that in gmod i would
The Combine would probably enslave Grunts first, as they mate fast and can enter battle after a couple of months or just one. Unlike the Covenant/Banished, the Combine will likely turn them into synths. I like to imagine them being half flesh and half machine, augmented eyesight and their bodies modded so they can breath in whatever atmosphere the Combine sees fit. Im not sure about any other species however, perhaps the insects but thats it. Hunters would be too complicated to synthesis and Brutes and Elites would serve as much troubles as humans would.
@@SonicChaocc I'm sure the combine would have a field day with covenant technology
@@Degrice068 If they can create complicated pulse weaponry with human weapons, and we have no idea what they do with their own weapons, imagine what they can do with already complicated powerful weaponry.
@@turtlelord8021 Imagine if BETA Unit was there. The Synth Crabs can Anti-Infantry good than Hunters and Strider.
Hello, the coder of that addon here, kamikaze grunts standing still means there's no navmesh, make sure there's navmesh on every zone you plan to use them on
I figured that was the main issue, a lot of the maps I use don't have navmesh and sometimes I'm just too lazy to generate any myself. If there's any way to place navmesh in only the small zones that I plan on recording with, I'll look into it, since I never really thought of that.
I'm *very* happy to receive feedback from the actual addon coder, I'm humbled that you even found this. Thank you, for providing everyone one of the best Halo addons out there right now :)
Nah they just gave up

7:51 looks like something out of a movie this whole fight looks like one
To be honest with you if such a thing ever happened I definitely put my money on the interdimensional Force instead of The Intergalactic beings
The Covenant is not even Intergalactic, though.
That would mean their empire reaches beyond our galaxy and that's not the case.
@@Agustin_Leal so?? The Combine is still interdimensional
@@Agustin_Leal than that means the flood doesn't exist and humans for many years on the ongoing war on each other has been defeated...oh, wait. it is and humans still triumph over covenant and not even that covenant has been split up e.g the Banisheds . Cope

@@Agustin_Leal I don't think you understand that I didn't understood anything in the first place, all I know is, I read it, I felt like your coping, and I felt like fuckin over someone today, I attack, then wait. Didn't elaborate any further
4:14 Civil Protection officer: Ah Shit i have to run away
Whoever wins, we lose.
Never thought that two different alien empires from different timelines would go toe-to-toe with each other. Impressive
I really liked the air battle and drop ships
Kinda want to see that again but more ODST style combine drop which essentially that whol air battle but with combine dropping soldiers directly into enemie lines while firing what ever ordinance
much effort was put in this video, well done! fav part was the civil protection trying to kill the eite with a stun baton... a true madlad.
Fuck dude, now this video makes me wanna know what a Combine Invasion would do if they were able to portal storm their way somehow to Covenant High Charity instead of Earth..
It's honestly surprising how little content I've seen comparing and contrasting the two armies
they would struggle for maybe a few weeks or months. but after that the high charity probably would fall after some months or year.
@@alduinfrdepends on how big the invasion force is
Bro,you have talent for making NPC battles.Keep Up the good work,you have earned a new subscriber my guy
Old video but something we'd have to consider is the Half-Life 2 and Half-Like Alyx Combine, while seemingly weak and easily defeated (because main character.) What we face is basically just a local garrison with militia volunteers (the entire Metro Police force is human.) The full strength of the Combine Empire is never seen.
Unfortunately there isn't much on the Gmod workshop to pull from, other than basic units and a few vehicle AI. Even then, I wouldn't choose to simply overwhelm the Covenant with pure numbers, because I prefer to keep the battles more cinematic looking. I like to have the audience guessing who's going to win.
But, still, I agree.
@@Degrice068 No i know im talking lore perspective not the video.
This was absolutely sick man. A banger. 😂Please upload more!! ❤👍

@@debbiebernhardt5406wouldn’t really be fair. The combine would dominate , especially on the ground
I love the use of unused and cut units from half life
Imagine the combine guard I was able to test it against a hunter from halo in fact 2 hunters and he obliterates them both
7:53 - 8:05
I LOVE THE SCENERY OF THIS. What did you do to get the gunships and dropships to fly in such cleanliness like this?
Basically, the gunship AI is stuck floating to the middle of the map at all times. I wasn't sure how I could make them look cool when all they do is sit at one spot, so instead I spawned a ton of them way off to the side, and recorded them as they all flew to that center point. I actually have no idea how to make them fly around naturally, so that's all I did. The map is called bigcity_improved, and maybe that might have affected it a little too. I dunno.
Quick edit- the dropship landing on the highway was actually piloted by me, using a wonderful addon called Airwatch.
@@Degrice068 ah yes, airwatch :)
ty for this video. Awesome work
Perhaps the combine can fight the forces of hell from DooM 2016 and eternal next?
@@trevor4212 I'm very glad you liked it. Now that Season 1 of my Gmod Battles is over I'm playing around with different addons in my free time to see what might be interesting. I prefer not to repeat the use of any NPC's/Factions, but this video did get a lot of attention so maybe I'll revisit it.
@@Degrice068 get enhanced sandbox npcs and inpc, it's worth it ;)
@@Degrice068 Correct me if I'm wrong. GMod bassically fucks with the AI of the NPCs, right? Not only the imported characters don't behave properly but the combine doesn't know what it's doing either.
If we're talking Combine on Earth then cov wins, but when the Combine start bringing in their real forces from other parts of the universe.. the covs in trouble.
This is stuff that I dreamed of doing and gmod and your videos are fun as hell to watch hope you make more like this cause I’ll watch them all
Im happy to hear it
fresh comment because i understand that not everyone will know this
it dosent matter what the cannon strength of a specific unit is, it only matters how they are CODED to act and react in gmod
take the strider for example; it fires a basic weapon at infanty but is coded to use its main cannon attack in specific circumstances: the basic bullet attack is just that, coded as a bullet, against another strider it would have no effect for example beacuse of another thing that is coded
the armour and health of the unit: you can code a unit to regen health as soon as it takes damage or, like the strider, code it to behave like a tank - bullets will have NO effect on it but explosives will and are the only way to kill it
thats why the scarab can kill the strider - its still plasma its firing but the CANNON firing the plasma is coded to fire "Explosive" type ammo
it looks like plasma, it sounds like plasma, but it behaves like an explosive rocket
the energy sword is another thing to consider: its coded to deal am immense amount of damage, the normal HP for a unit is 100 - i'd say the sword is coded to deal 1000 damage so ensure it insta kills when it connects; to keep it in line with how it acts in the halo games
a good example is the likes of the Kill la KILL and rwby SNPC's - they move fast and hit hard and are hard to kill because of how they are codded
they have like 2000 or 3000 health and regen it VERY quickly, as soon as you hit them, their health starts rapidly going back to full and their attacks are coded to deal immense damage
so if the likes of say an elite with an energy sword went toe to toe with them he'd die because he has the shield and health but they dont regen and its set at only 100 to 200 to make them more in line with how they are in halo games, obviously the weapon that deals 7000000000 damage is going to kill anyone
and also you can code how accurate somthing is: oobviously the universal union, or the combine as they are also known, would lose in that regard because half life was all about the player being this unstopable force - they cant aim for shit but you can as the player - and all that fancy armour they wear? its for intimidation purposes more or less. they arent coded to actually be bullet sponges despite being clade in layers of ballistic resistent armour
halo units would win easily in this regard because while they do indulge the player being this force to be feared, so are the covies
jackal snipers on halo 2 legendary anyone? you'll be dead before you realize your being targeted
the covies arent like the combine, the covies actually have some decent health and armour on them, in lore and in game and they arent the two year olds that just found daddys gun, they are veterans who have been trained all their lives with how to use their weapons effectivly - they can fire and move, they aim well
you could even code the scarab to be as weak and easy to kill as a metro cop if you wanted, just tell the game that its "tank like exterior" is actually "weak flesh" and give him 50 HP
the reason that the likes of the scarab and the strider act and sound like walking tanks is both the code and the visual
the visual aspect is, isntead of a fleshy noise and bloody impact, you get a metal ting and a metal dent, and the code as mentioned is told that "this is armour, only explosive type damage will hurt it, bullets wont work at all"
thw two working toegther give us the walking tank we see
you CAN change either one and get a different outcome
you can change the appearance as mentioned, to give the strider and scarab a fleshy impact and bloody splash to tell the game "this is flesh" but leave the code to how they react to daamage alone and they will be a giant walking meat mech that wont die unless you use bombs
same goes for the reverse as mentioned: tank like exterior but STILL dies if you hit it with a crowbar because its got low HP and is coded to be sucseptible to none-explosive damage
this is a breif exmaple of what i mean
exterior: metal
damaged by: explosive type only
HP: low; 10- 20
damage dealt: bullet and explosive
strider
exterior: metal
damaged by: explosive type only
HP: meduim; 40 - 70
damage dealt: explosive
scarab
exterior: flesh
damaged by: bullets and explosives
HP: low; 10 - 20
damage dealt: melee and bullet
metro cop
exterior: flesh
damaged by: bullets and explosives
HP: meduim to high; 80 - 140
damage dealt: melee and explosive
hunter (the combine ones)
if you change what they can be damaged by they can die to different things
like what happens if you change only 1 thing in the strider or the scarab tanks code?
this is a breif exmaple of what i mean
exterior: metal
damaged by: bullets and explosives
HP: low; 10- 20
damage dealt: bullet and explosive
strider
exterior: metal
damaged by: bullets and explosives
HP: meduim; 40 - 70
damage dealt: explosive
scarab
now the strider and scarab can die to a pistol or machine gun fire
Hats off mate. This is dope af.
The combine would probably send an invasion force
This iss the kindddd i wantedddddd dooo moreee you have my subbbb
Just the battle I wanted to see
I had to uninstall Gmod from my laptop because it couldn't handle the epicness of these fights, which were always a blast to do. I could entertain myself for hours with every vs matchup I could think of. But my computer kept crashing so I had to let it go for now, till I find something with the CPU to handle Gmod at its finest.
I barely even had the framerate for this video
@@Degrice068 I know that pain.
4:14 It's moments like these where I begin to wonder if preservation instincts are suppressed in combine units.
These guys just casually walked up to an elite without fear.
They're definitely scared of "permanent off-world relocation" if they won't succeed.
Remember, the Combine *had* to be weakened.
The way you film it was really good
Thanks, it's the thing I try the hardest on just so it's more interesting than other Gmod NPC battles you might find.
I really liked to use of headcrab shells in the battle, something some people forget that are used by the combine to weaker the resistance bases and invade them.
The Combine: we didn't conquer the Multiverse for nothing xD
The Combine learn to *adapt* to enemies and environments.
One army conquered earth and enslaved humanity in 7 hours, the other army I cannot explain. both can't kill one dude in armor.
Imagine the covenants during the resonance cascade.
see even if the covenant won the 1st battle the combine would have already captured troops of the covenant and made more soldiers from the grunts elites brutes. Its like poking the bear when you wake the bear up it will consume you. Combine is the most op organization
the combine aren't the same as the flood. Only when the combine conquer a species do they then begin to slowly integrate them. Even if you win the ground engagement against the covenant they will kick your ass in the orbital high ground and then simply bombard the planet.
How could you even think to bombard the combine? They literally attack from another universe through portals... The Covenant are a minor nuisance at galactic level, the combine are a multiversal level threat, like hell from doom eternal.
@@sbugmanthenoobinator the combine can't just make portals appear at random, they only managed to invade earth because of the small dimensional tear created by the black mesa incident. Even then the combine have a rather primitive teleportation/portal system compared to what the black mesa researchers post collapse where able to work on.
@@sbugmanthenoobinator dude this Makron guy destroyed you
If you say so
Covenant has a starfleet that can glass entire planets.
We don't even know the combines true strength so the answer of who would win is dubious.
Combine Advisor, an leader is literally reality wrapper.
@@namelessguy933combine advisor is only a middle rank too.
Theoretically, this isn't even all the technology that the combine have either.
Humanity won the human-covenant war and destroyed the covenant in the end after several years, even if it was a close call
Humanity never defeated the combine, only set them back and chased them off of earth presumably temporarily
humans in Half-Life is not even close to how advanced humanity was on Halo. if the Covenant invaded earth in Half-Life they would just instantly glass the planet because earth on Half-Life doesn't contain any forerunner artifacts. heck i don't even know if humanity in Half-Life could last for 30 minutes-1 hour if The Covenant invaded.
@@alduinfr Gluon gun, displacement cannon, tau and other crap: Am I a joke to you?
@@namelessguy933 humans in halo has a bomb that could destroy an entire fucking planet
@@alduinfr vortex hopwire, portal storm, physgun and gravity gun. So if they have bomb that destroy planet then what next hmm? Combine is stronger than Convenant so that take more than just 30 minutes to win.
@@namelessguy933 umm i don't know, thousands of heavily augmented soldiers that could take on millions of aliens? plus the weapons you listed there aren't mass produced just like the weapons on halo and really hard to make while the halo weapons are strong and easily built since humanity's technology in halo. it doesn't matter how good the weapons that humanity has on half life if there's only a few of them.
4:33 that one annoying kid in class who sat behind you and kept poking you with a penile
you have provoked a gang war.
Theyre called the universal union for a reason ladies and gents
It’s actually not called universal Union it’s just combine
@@quempire2656huh, i guess that names non canon now.

1:17 el pozole🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
All the Combine has to do is open a massive number of portal storms on a number of Covenant planets.
The problem is I don’t think we’ve ever seen the full force of the Combine in game, only a contingent they left to secure Earth with their only reinforcement coming from a single portal
I love doing these in gmod too lmao, i usually put storm troopers or clones vs the covenant all the time but from time to time i also pin them against the combine.
Real fun.
Sadly i can never make the covenant on my side as the gmod covenant has some default config to attack player
Nobody can fight the combine
Cool piece of head canon, it’s another 2 or so years before Gordon arrives. And here we see how the human arm of the combine overwatch operates in the Universal Unions wars abroad. Great video.
I feel like the covenant would win, they got ftl travel, they can glass entire planets, and they dont bother with taking prisoners. the combine mostly just subsist on overpowering weaker races and taking there stuff for themselves and unless the combine has something on their homeworld that is super effective I can see the covanent winning
Tbf, we only see the very tip of a massive iceberg. The combine holds an unknown number of planets, *and dimensions* its likely what we see in half life is such a miniscule amount of force to them that the main force barely even noticed when earth was taken back from their dominion, as evidenced by earths combine forces being left to essentially rot after the portal collapse. The combine had bigger fish to fry. Its hard to say, but based on the combines universe conquering status I would say they are the likely winner by numbers alone.
Now that I think about it, the covenant completing their goal of activating the rings would do little to stop the covenant either, as the effects of the halo are confined to one universe.
Just wait until you see how powerful the combine really is
this is freaking epic
Idk if you can do this in gmod. But the Covenant also would actively be using space fighters in aerial assaults like seraphs and space banshees.
There is a great lack of diversity in weaponry, enemies (mostly enemy ranks), and vehicles.
oh how I have wanted this!
Please do a 1v1, would love to see Davoth done nicely and fight Zeus or other more powerful npcs.

I'm sorry, how did the the combine win their matches? I mean there was still covenant left
The last two battles were a little inconclusive, which is my bad. I kind of gave the victory to the Combine because they’re the faction I just thought would win. It definitely could have been done better.
Wars just dont work like that... you do not kill all of them some of them just retreat. Plus Combine is already superior so fair fight.
awesome video i loved it
What may or may not have helped the covenant is download LFS halo vehicles. I set the A.I. to 2 for Covenant airships and let them go to town on the combine below.
Now imagine a war between the combine and the banished.
Who would win?
Still combine
A dream battle I never knew I wanted
epic battle
There is no way we can know the true result, their mechanics and I.A for example.. that covies aren't acting like thenselves.. also elites armor recharge. And the combine, in a such big battle Between two giant alien empires.. would use the Power of the advisors as well. One thing is sure, it would be the best crossover war ever!
We also can't measure the types and amount of damage their weapons would do, translating to each other's universes. And there is the fact that humanity in the Halo universe are way more capable of fighting aliens.. and even tho they are more capable.. the covies still give then hell. Of course.. we don't know all of what the combine has outside of earth that they could throw.. but the reminant forces on earth have their days counted.
Agreed, hopefully others who watch this can understand that too.
I half-expected to see Dr Breen and Eli Vance shaking hands, agreeing to a temporary truce between the human resistance and the Combine Empire against the Covenant at the end
For covenant fans, Eh tabooey
I appreciate your time
Now if it was a small coming Invasion Force yeah I can see the winning but if it was a whole entire Armada Covenant ships what division forces the Covenant woodwind by sheer numbers.
the combine does have a multiverse level number of ships at its disposal
And this is only forces to stop resistance, like prison guards. If we had combine invasion forces than covenant would be stumped to the ground in hours.
@@potassiumdroid8390 The combine has a whole fleet of spaceships. In half life 2, if you look on the "earth surrenders" corkboard, you can see a picture of 2-3 combine spaceships floating above a skyscraper in the sky.

Realistically I don't think they stand a chance the covenant brought down noble 6 through shear willpower and overwhelming numbers which shouldn't even be possible because Spartans are specitifacally designed to take on massive unstoppable armies by themselves, they weren't built for small one on one engagements
Gotta disagree here although i do love both games, the combine we see in half life 2 isn't even a single fraction of their army but mostly a garrison made only out of Humans and our technology combined, with only little support of actual synths (Hence the reason why humanity could actually do something against the combine) plus if we do look at what Dr. Breen says in Hl2 it implies that the combine is in control of several universes along that they have things "Impossible to describe with our limited vocabulary" which isn't even scratching the surface of the other stuff there is.... Although I think that the glassing would help the covenant alot i doubt that it would actually bring the combine down since of their multiversal size.....
But hey what do ya think?
And yet I still can’t get Hunter NPCs
Arachnids vs. Alien Swarm!
About a month too late unfortunately
Wort wort wort wort, as it says
Could you try CIS vs Covenant or Republic vs Combine next time, or vice-versa? I tried making these NPC battles but my PC is a potato.
I have indeed considered using the Star Wars factions for one of these battles. I'd like to avoid repeated use of the same factions, though, so I don't know if I want to use the Combine again. Either way it's something I do have on my videos-to-make bucket list.
Can you do 7 Hour war video you can make it i believe you ;) and you got a new subscriber from me :)
consider it considered
WTF?!combines too smart!!plz give addon name
Addons in the description
ya know it kinda makes sense that the covies could handle most of the overwatch forces employed by the universal union
as they may have been transformed slightly and been modified to a small evtent, but they are still human....sort of
now the synth units....thats a tougher question
like the striders, would they even be bothered by the plasma weapons used by the cov? humans need explosive RPG rounds to bring down striders, bullets have no effect....but plasma...hmmm
Nice video()But I have one question.What is the customize you have done on your Iv04 mod?I ask for that because my NPC always rush to the enemy's face then aim to fire,really strange.
I just used the [IV04] Halo Reach NextBots addon and the IV04 base. The combine were all basic NPC's I downloaded. Maybe it's because some maps don't support NPC movement very well, so they act strange.
It would have been bice if instead of using gm bigcity, you would have used a variant of gm bigcity with combine aesthetics, like gm citadel, since I see that you tried to give it some lore, and what better than a final battle in City 1 (New York, from which bigcity is based)
I considered it, but a majority of maps are difficult for AI to navigate. I could've tried a little harder to find another good map, I'll just have to see what I do in the future
