Grapple is better, but I do wish we'd gotten the repulsor in campaign. It makes sense that it's in the DLC as an easy way to add 'new' content, but I still wish we got to use it in campaign before May.
The easiest kill with a repulsor is against energy swords, most won't switch weapons and will try to come back at you while you walk backwards and kill them lol
Playing FFA in Recharge is probably the most amusing thing there is. I can literally have 7 or more kills with the Repulsor only. I just wait underneath and bait enemies so they jump down. Then, I just say goodbye to them
I think the respulsor is meant to almost repulse everything, however some of the things are *so* rare to actually happen that they've simply overlooked actually finishing things like the returning projectile lol
Great video lads, I think it'd definitely be a good idea to maybe get in a 3rd party tester just for things that might be latency dependant in the future, because I'm hella curious about those ones lol
The repulsor is really cool and all but the desync issues in this game really suck the fun out of it. Even for people who have good ping the desync still affects it pretty heavily in my experience.
There’re definitely problems still but the 343 team just put out a huge game in 2 parts and need some R&R time over the holidays. I’m sure they’ll be ironing things out with a new vigor come the new year

Some of the Heatwave projectiles were connecting, some of them were ricocheting off in another direction and some of them were going directly back. I'm not sure why it did so much damage, maybe some weird hit detection issue.
Whooo just binge watched all the previous episodes last night. So strange how some things work in this game. Like someone had to program everything to work in a specific way
@@oreos3174 like that you can shoot a grenade on the ground, but not in mid air. Or that you can’t kill yourself with a spike off a man cannon, but you CAN if you repulsor the spike after the man cannon. Someone had to make a decision to make it that way.
@@MintyMagicMTG it’s more than likely a side effect of the way it’s programmed. Like with the nade thing, there is more than likely separate scripts for both when the nade is sitting on the dispenser or thrown by the player. The only thing they likely share in common is the nade model and texture.
You actually can perforn the needler repulse, I nearly got supercombined buit repulsed the needles to reverse it on the enemy, killing him in the process. I'll try and recreate and send a video.
I would love to see some interactions with the drop off pelicans. Can you grab a vehicle before it drops with grapple? Can you grenade launch a vehicle on top of the pelican? There are a lot of cool possibilities
These videos feel like demonstrations for how bad the Halo Infinite netcode is. It's hard to know what's working as intended, what's lag, and what's server de-sync.
Repulsing depends on tight timing of actions from two different players, so how much could better netcode help when there's like a 200ms+ round-trip time between them?
@@defendthehouse To be fair, better netcode would alleviate some of these issues regardless of distance. It looks like the server has issues keeping track of some of the more odd interactions, and I that’s a shame honestly. I feel like this game is a true sequel to Halo 3 finally, and, regardless of however niche they might be, the weird interactions are a big part of that. The original Halo trilogy (to me at least) was always about trying new things and seeing what worked. Grenade and rocket jumping to areas of the maps (both campaign and multiplayer) you wouldn’t normally be able to reach was always very interesting, and I liked how they kept trying to innovate with things like Dual Wield and, to a bigger extent, the Halo 3 equipment. I feel like Reach was an attempt to further this, but I wasn’t a fan. Halo 4 was… mmm… and I couldn’t play more than the first mission of 5 without feeling put off by how weird it felt. Infinite legitimately feels like the next big sequel game in the Halo series right after 3 (Reach was a prequel).
The hammer does work, let's say 70%. The timing is tight, but it does work. You use it when the hammer gets pulled back so when they swing down they get the Ghammer physics and the repulsor physics. I have a clip that I guy was jumping down toward swinging and I bounced him up in the air enough for a kill. Could have been other stuff happening, but I was stoked.
I don’t think so but maybe? It looks like what happens is that it turns into a regular cindershot attack when repulsed, but I also know you can shoot a regular attack and then scope in to aim it after so maybe? The repulse player might just need to scope in afterwards. No idea, but that would be some cool jank if it works
I almost actually killed a Wasp with a Repulsor once. I had 5 charges on BTB and there was a Wasp harassing our Power Seeds at base while I relegated myself to guard duty. Wasp shot rockets at me and I reflected them back. Tried it again, but was making sure to actively strafe, so I couldn't hit em with the reflected rockets. Decided to keep Marking the Wasp for allies with proper ordinance to take it down instead, while I took cover and took out anyone trying to grab our Power Seeds
My new favorite move is using the repulsor to get Mind The Gap. It's been cheekily placed near the edge of several maps, most notably Live Fire. I've even gotten 2 at once. It's outrageous fun.
Repusler vs repulser. Happen to me in ranked. I THINK they canceled each other out. The other player killed me because I had no clue what just happened. Almost seem like he had done it before and knew the outcome. Because man he sure was quick to shoot after. I would of gotten mind the gap. Damn you academy map. I would love to see the outcome from ya. Kinda hard for it to happen naturally on its own in pvp.
What I mostly have used the repulsor for has been getting a really high jump by repulsing the ground. It’s easily the most practical and consistent usage for it.
Honestly this is really making me want to use custom game tools to make a gamemode built around using the repulsor and energy sword for neat duels. Maybe giving swords infinite uses but limiting repulsor uses, so you have to use the equipment in a smart way and can only replenish when it drops from enemies? It would definitely require some play testing.
Hey so when you want to do something at the same time, instead on counting down. go off a certain time on the in game timer (in between the score on bottom.) it should make things more accurate and stuff lol. Just a thought :)
I think this will be tough to test but I’m like 75% positive I have “repulsed” bullets out of the AR and BR before. That’s in quotations because I don’t think they actually bounced back but rather it just stopped them. Would love to know if this actually happens and the bullets hit like a wall from the Repulsor or if repulsing just throws off the aim of the enemy or what.
Grapple or Dash are better when you have a melee weapon to close the distance, or for boarding vehicles or just movement with the Grapple, but the repulsor is my personal favourite equipment, the bounces are so gooood
1. Ok so I replied on one of your tweets that's proof you CAN repulse a skewer but that was against bots in a custom game with 0 latency. So in multiplayer depending on your latency and timing it is possible. 2. It is possible to repulse a few needler shots but not a good enough amount to stop you from being supercombined... maybe like 1 to 5 shots depending on the timing. 3. The gravity hammer can be repulsed KINDA, it can push them out of range enough for you to shoot them... however you cant negate the damage dealt.
you can also try using the repulsor after bouncing your own heatwave off the wall. myth ideas: how many times can the heatwave bounce off of a wall. i think it might just be 3.
Everything can be repulsed, the timings, hitboxes or visuals are just messed up sometimes. Regular MG bullets (Warthog and standing turret) can be repulsed also, Pulse Carbine shots can be repulsed as well. But I believe I saw those two examples in a previous video somewhere.
It also looks like the Repulsor works on some effects, like the effects of a weapon, and not the "bullet" Since Infinite is hit-scan, guns like the sniper, disruptor and others don't have any actual projectiles, they just draw effects over the path the projectile would normally take. So it Repulses the effect, not any damage. The only ones that can be marked as "Confirmed" are the ones were it doesn't damage you when you Repuls it back.
This video got me Rrrrrepulsor-lifted!!! EDIT; also, for the ghost part, I was wondering if you tried repulsing the wing off. I had a match where I repulsed straight down while standing on an enemy ghost and it’s wing came off. I dunno if it was coincidence or not, but if the Repulsor force does it’s crush damage to vehicles that would be quite interesting.
I think you had some latency issues with the needler as well because I definitely supercombined myself in a needler v needler gunfight when my target ran out of ammo and repulsed some of my needles into me
sometimes i regret being a game nerd, because if I start playing this game, I just know I will want to know every interaction shownin this video by heart to minmax my gameplay potential
Actually, in the show Myth busters they had Confirmed, Busted and Plausible for the conclusions for myths. For the Heatwave, you could have used Plausible
So we've done the Grapple Chain ... What about a vertical Repulsor Chain? (Horizontal Repulsor Chain is probably possible with a single Spartan being flung around and a line of Spartans with Repulsors ready but it'd be tough to set up)
I am 100% positive I have used the repulsor to send needles back. They were pretty far away and had shot most of the needler clip. It sent them all back at once and killed the player with a needler explosion. I can try to find it and clip it for you.
yeah enough people have said they've done it that we will likely revisit it in the new year. I have some ideas for how we can counter-act our latency issues too.
This is fascinating. Looks like the netcode needs a bit of work? You guys have said you are really far apart, so not blaming 343 for not hiring someone on the other side of the planet. Considering it not being in the campaign and how many projectiles it only sorta works with, could the repulsor be a late-stage rework? I almost wonder if it was originally a titanfall/district 9-style bullet grabber ability originally
Very cool. I guess the summary would be that it'll work on anything that isn't a hitscan projectile (assuming basically all human weapons are hitscan). edit: Oh, and the hammer I guess.
Think you should try the gravity hammer again. I feel like I’ve been able to stop a grav hammer with a repulser before. Maybe I did it during the beta but I can’t remember
What about lock on weapons? Like with the Hydra/Wasp. If reflected do they track and does the hydras damage change depending? Also don't forget to test maybe if its tracking a 3rd player
A ton of weapon interactions have been weird in the last update. I had a heatwave I picked up just go through two brutes in campaign at the end of one of the missions but would dmg them if I reflected it off the ground
I'm surprised you guys didn't do a plasma pistol overcharge. I know it was in one of the multiplayer trailers before the game came out, but I wonder if they kept that in, or cut it for whatever reason.
Coming pretty late into this but idea for a myth. You can grapple onto a fusion coil after it has been tossed and destroyed. Grappling onto whatever pieces remain shortly after its been destroyed. I discovered this while playing the campaign. I tossed a coil up on a platform and missed so I decided to use my grapple but it grabbed onto a piece of the coil and proceeded to up but then get sent back down. Could've been a fluke but worth a try. Would love to see if you guys can follow on this. If not in this one I will leave a comment on the next video if you guys make another.
I want to know if you can still punch weapons to your friends without the repulser. But if that’s not possible to do anymore then try throwing it to them with the repulser or Grenades.
I don't think the "Confirmed but Confused" ones have anything to do with netcode nor latency. Halo's projectiles have a hitscan element in front of them to make shooting feel more consistent across laggy connections, so if the weapon isn't explosive or The Skewer and is just firing typical Halo projectiles then you can take the damage before the projectile hits. These hitscan zones are larger for faster projectiles. Basically, you bounce the heatwave back at your opponent, but you've already taken the damage assigned to each projectile so they're now blanks that deal no damage to your opponent.
Ok, I think we covered everything. Hopefully. Anyways, where do people stand: Grapple or Repulsor?
Grapple

Yo circle toons what's up
I've been able to get a return to sender kill by using a repulsor on a needler before. I was shocked it actually did something
same ive also killed by repulsing needler shots at very close range
Same. I'd broken shields and had to reload, but they started shooting and I didn't have cover near so I tried a boop and it paid off

I've used repulsors against vehicles on a few BTB maps, and it is AMAZING. Repulsor is rapidly becoming my go-to tool.
its the sond best gadget to the grapple
The gravity hammer does have a lunge! You have to get within red reticle range. May still kill the repulser player though.

Can you get an Off the Rack with an equipment? Like repulsor someone into a wall?
Repulsing somebody into a wall gets you a medal called "pancake"
@@pentagonofpeople hes wondering if you do it fast enough though after picking it up if it will also give the "off the rack" medal

Very cool. I guess the summary would be that it'll work on anything that isn't a hitscan projectile (assuming basically all human weapons are hitscan). edit: Oh, and the hammer I guess.
One of the first mulitplayer trailers showed a charged plasma pistol shot get repulsed.
You can bounce up to one of the projectiles of the regular ravenger, they all at diffrent times so you cant really hit it multiple.
Think you should try the gravity hammer again. I feel like I’ve been able to stop a grav hammer with a repulser before. Maybe I did it during the beta but I can’t remember
What about lock on weapons? Like with the Hydra/Wasp. If reflected do they track and does the hydras damage change depending?
Also don't forget to test maybe if its tracking a 3rd player
The melee and repulse combo to knock someone off the edge of the map has fucked me over more than I'd like to admit.
For confused stuff ya have to say “Plausible”
You should do the gravity hammer over again
Even tho some are bugged, I’m very happy that the repulsor able to affect so many things
A ton of weapon interactions have been weird in the last update. I had a heatwave I picked up just go through two brutes in campaign at the end of one of the missions but would dmg them if I reflected it off the ground
Idk if It’s bugged or if it’s just then being so far apart from each other
I'm surprised you guys didn't do a plasma pistol overcharge. I know it was in one of the multiplayer trailers before the game came out, but I wonder if they kept that in, or cut it for whatever reason.
Oh wow, gonna be 100% honest I don't think either of us even remembered the plasma pistol was in the game!
@@defendthehouse I remember only because of the Grunts I kill
Coming pretty late into this but idea for a myth. You can grapple onto a fusion coil after it has been tossed and destroyed. Grappling onto whatever pieces remain shortly after its been destroyed.
I discovered this while playing the campaign. I tossed a coil up on a platform and missed so I decided to use my grapple but it grabbed onto a piece of the coil and proceeded to up but then get sent back down. Could've been a fluke but worth a try. Would love to see if you guys can follow on this. If not in this one I will leave a comment on the next video if you guys make another.
I'm positive you can repulse the needler, I remember doing it once, try shooting multiple needles instead of 1 or 2
I know it's been a while, but I got a return to sender with the needler, in the end we traded, but I think 1 or 2 of his needles killed him
vanguard myth: you can destory your own boming run by calling in a glide bomb right after and hitting the boming run
What's vanguard. That game died right?
I like this series a lot! However, I’m confused as to why you guys are so far apart from one another. I imagine there is an effective range
Had an odd one today, Pretty sure I got the medal for blocking the sword using a dropshield.
The fact that are two volumes just about this
will you guys make mythbusters for "ready or not"?
oh baby another video lets goooooooooooooo
Now I’m curious if threat sensor can deflect grenades/rockets and stuff or detonate rockets.
I want to know if you can still punch weapons to your friends without the repulser. But if that’s not possible to do anymore then try throwing it to them with the repulser or Grenades.
I don't think the "Confirmed but Confused" ones have anything to do with netcode nor latency. Halo's projectiles have a hitscan element in front of them to make shooting feel more consistent across laggy connections, so if the weapon isn't explosive or The Skewer and is just firing typical Halo projectiles then you can take the damage before the projectile hits. These hitscan zones are larger for faster projectiles. Basically, you bounce the heatwave back at your opponent, but you've already taken the damage assigned to each projectile so they're now blanks that deal no damage to your opponent.
can you do a redirecting rockets with explosions episode, could use grenades in halo 3 to bounce your own rockets around corners
