      Yep. And they communicate not by talking, but by vibrating. "A hunter's speech is less heard, and more _felt_." That's pretty awesome.

      In one of the books, it talks about one of Jon's first missions. And at one point, he sees a dead jackal (or grunt, I forget) on the ground that looks like it's been crushed by an elephant (animal, not vehicle) And later they learn that it was a hunter walking by, saw the jackal in front of it, and didn't care to walk around it, so it just stepped on its neck and kept walking

      yeah and out of armor they are still rather deadly, as seen in Halo: Nightfall. This is also why the few times you hear hunters speak, they never use singular pronouns when referring to themselves, they operate with collective consciousness in each colony, making them very adaptable.

  • @AstronomyWales
    @AstronomyWales 9 лет назад +299

    Come one people, give the guy a break about his speech. He sounds like an otherwise intelligent and pleasant person. He might have difficulty reading or a speech impediment that he's having to work against. It hasn't stopped him from making high quality, entertaining videos.

    • @TheZephyrsWind
      @TheZephyrsWind 6 лет назад +22

      I agree. I have a much less noticeable speech impediment and I can sympathize. It is REALLY irritating when my mouth just refuses to say what my mind tells it to say. I often just stop and take a deep breath, or if I'm not calm I might just mess up and go "okay mouth just freaking stop that shit! Gosh! Ugh!" And then I feel better. It only happens when I read though. Not when just talking with nothing to read from.
      So I bet he gets fed up with his speech, and he can't very well just record 1 thousand takes until it's perfect (never happens). So he likely just bites the bullet and makes the videos.
      Advice I have for him would be instead of making a script, write down about 2 to 5 words that remind him of a bunch if information. This way the reading problem won't kick in. I use this when I teach people. It helps me immensely. However, all speech problems are different, so it may be less effective for him (or more, actually).

    • @dmonvrlies40

      I don't really have a problem with it but the only thing that bugs me is his pronunciation of Sangheli to put it simply it would be more or less easier to get someone to read a set of lines that says Sang-heli the second part sounding like how you would say Helicopter but as one word.
      That or watch halo legends episode "The Dual" as the Sangheli say the name of their home planet at least one to two times in the show.
      Anyway other then that the rest of the video was good.

  • @robbiewazup
    @robbiewazup 9 лет назад +120

    saying that the LekGolo didn't go along with the thought of the great journey makles sense when you think about it they must of allowed Sargent Johnson to use the colony unit (scarab) to open the door and stop the firing of the ring by tarturus. In a way halo 2's ending was thanks to the LekGolo

    • @halo7ification
      @halo7ification 9 лет назад +20

      the halo 2 scarab did not have the support of the hunter worms...that was solely piloted by elites/ brutes

    • @HaloFikus
      @HaloFikus 9 лет назад +1

      As I understood when I read about the scarabs the LekGolo isn't the sole thing that is making the scarabas (like the hunters) just that they controll the scarab which is a machine, so maybe johnson and the other marines controlled the scarab. For example the first scarab in halo 2 the elites are controlling the scarabs. Some scarabs are controlled by the lekgolo (halo 3) and the 2 scarabs in halo 2 are older versions and controlled by other species (elites etc)

      If you're really sitting on Bungie's lap, it's best to get into a corner and cry.
      They'll never come back.
      Shit, nobody wants them back to begin with.
      No self-respecting Halo fan will tolerate Bungie's atrocities.

    • @ObsidianP
      @ObsidianP 9 лет назад +15

      Francisco Martinez As a person who has played halo since its introduction to the xbox, I don't exactly agree with that sentiment. What 343i has done with the franchise isn't terrible, but you can see the influences of other games from the designers who had worked on previous project (namely the full integration of sprint and smaller maps both void vehicular use).The mechanics and level design of Halo 4 were not the best of the series, the story of halo 4 felt rushed. and the multiplayer lacks a lot of variety than previous titles.You're entitled to your opinion, however I wouldn't go so far to say that 343i hasn't done some pretty bad things with franchise as of late.

    Scarabs are Lekgolo colonies...
    you learn something new everyday.
    There's this thing that upsets me about the Hunter Pairs. Two things really.
    They never have speech.
    And, considering the amazingly imaginative concept of Worm Colonies, they are used by the game developers in unimaginative ways. It really hasn't changed since Halo 2.
    I want to see a hunter pair combine into a terrifying Goro style monstrosity. Or perhaps split into Eight smaller Entities that scramble about the player, making itself a very difficult target as it attempts to reform behind you.

    @zrexx4832 9 лет назад +3

    Canonically, there were also a lot of Mgalekgolo who sided with the Separatists too, as you could probably see within the final mission(s) of Halo 2. They just weren't featured as allies in Halo 3's gameplay because that would be extremely confusing trying to distinguish between friend and foe (seeing as they were on both sides). In fact, I think a couple guys in Bungie actually acknowledged this as a problem in Halo 2 as well, during developer commentary of the first couple Arbiter missions.

      It's quite simple, really; they ARE the Scarab. The worms spread out through the Scarab's limbs and power core. Their armor is made from the same material as the Hunters'. Do you understand?

      Think of the Hunters as a tiny Scarab. Or the Scarabs as giant Hunters. Either way, it'll work because the worms act as a hivemind covered in impenetrable armor. How much armor they have and what shape that armor is, is what determines the fundamental difference between a Hunter and a Scarab

    @jamesverhoff1899 8 лет назад +2

    There's an interesting precedent for this in terrestrial biology. Individuals in some bryozoan colonies function more like individual cells in human bodies, performing specific functions such as locomotion, digestion, and reproduction. There are colonies that can get up and walk around--which, when you're used to seeing bryozoans as stationary things akin to corals, is disconcerting! In addition, slime mold can perform logic functions in aggregate, despite being a fairly primitive organism. So the idea of a colonial worm-like species like the LekGolo evolving isn't far-fetched; every aspect of it is already present in our own biosphere.
