What about a weapon of your personal design?
Why haven’t there been any mass produced infantry power armour in the UNSC?
@@TgamerBio5529 Well, the SPI suits were cheaper to MJLINOR. It all came down to power generation, one of the reasons why only Spartans wear the MJLINOR suits. Despite Halsey's best effects to miniaturize the fusion generators without loss of power, the remaining strength and speed a Spartan in MJLINOR can do is up to the person inside.
@@WolfeSaber9933 without energy shields or cloaking technology just a light exoskeleton that can increase the soldiers carrying capacity. The SPI was cheaper but had cloaking technology that made it expensive.
@@TgamerBio5529 You still have one problem, power generation. The reason why the marks one to three were shelved.
I always thought MACs were some of the coolest part of the UNSC arsenal with just how they don't give a shit how advanced the Covenant are. Anything with that much force is gonna hurt.
Covenant: We have advanced shields
UNSC: hahaha bullet go shwooom
It’s my philosophy why bullets won’t be replaced by lasers and plasma in the future, cause for the obvious reasons of Lasers needing a huge battery and needing sustained pulses to do any damage, and plasma dissipating once it leaves a barrel making it useless. Most space guns require handwaving to work in scifi thats just how it is.
Meanwhile bullets deliver many times the kinetic energy at a fraction of the cost and can be amplified, aka bigger gun, or just do what Terrans do in starcraft and make a railgun machinegun.
Yup if we figure out small but powerful batteries then gauss and rail weapons will become more viable. Mind you lack of rare Earth metals will likely be an issue.
@@joeojeda4651 just means more asteroid strip mining
@@clan741 That's why we have technological advancement to be able to fit more power in a smaller batt and solve the plasma problem.
I do love how USNC ships are basically designed around a giant gun barrel.
The time honoured tradition of "We have a giant-ass gun... lets build a vehicle around it!" School of design that was made popular by the A-10.
Spartan Laser or the comically underrated in my humble opinion the Sticky Launcher.
Already done the Laser. Sticky Launcher is duly noted.
@@Installation00 Then I'll have to check that one out as soon as possible.
and it's crazy to think that the gauss cannon has more power than the main gun of a leopard 2 tank
not realy
Thats the magic of future science
It is a Gauss Cannon. What did you expect?
@@JoaoSoares-rs6ec yes really. APFSDS(Armored piercing fin stabilized discarding sabot) would have problems killing the wraith mortar vehicle. Simply because when the round penetrates it would need to go though the covenant shielding which the wraith has. This would lead to it shattering from just hitting the shield and let's say it gets though. Due to the vehicle being all rounded. Might kill the turret gunner but the driver would still be alive. Shrapnel has less of a penetrating effect.
Meanwhile reason why APHE is used in service is because when the round penetrates its going to go though the shield, that explosive filler though is going to basically force the vehicle to implode. Since the explosive mass has no where to go and cannot expand because of the covenant shielding.
@@sinisterisrandom8537 do you even know how the APFSDS works no offence but it doesn't looks like it.
Now to the wraith first I have read a lot about halo and its lore, never read anything that mentioned the wraith having Shields,
Second armour being curved our not is not that much of an issue, the APFSDS is designed to defeat heavy armour, it would still go trough it, Shields our not,
Even if the wraith has Shields, I have no reference to it so if you have anything I can check appreciate it, the round would go trough it,
Lastly I find irritating that in they keep showing Shields defeating kinetic weapons and lasers, that's just not possible, a shield would be effective against charged particles like plasma, not solid rounds much less lasers and in the fall of reach animation we see the commonwealth fire one missile salvo and two MAC rounds, in the time the covenant fired a single salvo of plasma torpedoes, the missiles were In effective the first mac round failed, but the second penetrated the shield clean trough the ccs out the other side while the shield was still active,
Would love to see you cover the M99 Stanchion.
dito, that thing is in essence the what if you took a Railgun, and a SRS-99 series sniper rifle and put them together. and it's been canonically used by the most badass Sgt Major. ever.
Oh yeah the Stanchion. That thing is lit.
The Halo 4 Railgun has quite a low muzzle velocity from what I remember. Its really designed as a short to medium range weapon, sort of ranges you'd use an Assault Rifle at. One time when me and a friend were messing around on Forge, I fired the Railgun at a distant cliff on the other side of the map and the round took a good few seconds to hit. It took long enough for me to reload, zoom in and see the round mid air for a couple of seconds. I guess they really dialed up the muzzle velocity for Halo 5, because that Azolai video shows that's got some speed to it.
I loved the hell out of this weapon in Halo 4 and Halo 5.
You should do one on the SAW next.
I like Halo armory designs. It would be cool if you could cover the weapons in Titanfall 2 as well the designs in that game was very cool and I liked their designs and how it felt like in game. The Titanfall 2 armory you could call it.
Frontiers armory
@@josephcasper8803
Good name.
Have you heard of Ahoy? He did a similar series with Titanfall 1 weapons
@@logicaltips4107
I have not until now. Though it seems like he only did that a long time ago before stopping. 8 years ago.
Please we need this
My favorite tactic was to charge it up and then zoom in to precision aim.
I wish they would have included the M90 Mk.1 Shotgun and SAW in Infinite as unlockable weapons that can be upgraded as the power from the Mk.1 would come in handy in dealing with certain bosses and the firepower from the SAW would help a lot from getting swarmed
Probably one of the few weapons Halo 4 introduced that I actually like, to be honest.
As for the next Armory vid, I put my vote in for (one of) the many varieties of Shade turret.
Personally I like the rail guns; especially the ones that fire ultra dense limb exploding ultra hot emping projectiles aka Plasma weapon XD
For reference Star core plasma can be low ball 6x as dense as Osmium.
Love the Railgun from *Halo 4* and *Halo 5: Guardians.* ❤️👍
Best thing I liked in Halo 4 - you can rearm the railgun with those little green supply crates. Sniper's and rockets - power toys basically all you see is all you get - always used to use them, until I found out, you can resupply the rail gun - so it is now my weapon of choice - pick off at a distance, reload, repeat. That little fact changed me from never using it at all, to being the first thing I look for.
Can you do something on ancient human weapons? There may not be enough information for a long video but I would be interested in a short summary of all we know about them and their design.
Nothing like a futuristic AT rifle which is also the way to throw a rock the hardest such beauty
There’s literally no reason for the projectile to carry high explosives (I’m not even sure that could work with something moving that fast)… but the rule of cool’s will must be done
I mean there are reasons to have explosive tipped Gauss Shots. Armor penetration followed by internal explosions for Vehicles, bunkerbusting, Orbital Bombardment, Ship to Ship Combat etc.
Where a normal Guass shot may not work, nearly a Davy Crockett mini nuke on top of it could do serious damage and very much be useful
bruh that was my first thought, like one of the major potential advantages of the weapon is reduced projectile cost, weight, and size, u legit just need the power and a lil cylinder of conductive metal.
Also the rule of cool meant that u got that ridiculous, clearly separated rail design, I'm not even sure they both touch the projectile lmao
@@ssjjshawnthe round is traveling so fast that it would go through whatever you were shooting at before the explosive could arm. And whatever explosive you jam into that tiny round would only have as much pop as a firecracker. I can sort of excuse the ship mounted ones, as the deck guns on UNSC ships are firing much larger rounds, but a shoulder fired Railgun would never be an explosive weapon. You’d use it as a sniper more than anything. But again, we’re playing augmented, 7ft, armored super soldiers, who regularly shoot infantry with guns designed to killing heavy vehicles and aircraft. Realism be damned.
I like to imagine that the pop we see in game isn’t an explosive, it’s what’s left of the poor grunt you wasted a shot on
@@Dorian_Kellum Yes the same was true for early Anti Tank guns, but armor soon evolved to resist it.
Forerunner Armor and higher end Covenant armor that can withstand direct plasma and even direct nuclear assault may need a bit of extra punch to get a guaranteed kill on vehicles.
Also this is the same Universe where a Handheld Nuke destroying a full ship is possible (for note the smallest EL Nuclear devices were still Jeep mounted 500 Ton yield Davy Crockett that even the warhead is larger than Chiefs torso). Having explosive tipped Guass rounds (also Explosives can arm faster than Mach 11, or just make it a dummy explosion with a RPG styled primer so it doesn't detonate until the nose cap has folded in backwards) again may very well be useful
@@ssjjshawn I don’t care what hand waving you do to say how “durable” the armor is in your setting, physics is still a thing. Nothing that dense (and it would be dense) would be able to be worn by infantry, AND still have the ability to stop a slug moving at hyper velocity. If forerunner armor was that strong, they would have never lost to the flood, and we wouldn’t be able to kill Prometheans without power weapons. A lot of something’s durability in Halo comes down to whether or not it has shields. Covenant ships have strong armor, but Super MACs make it irrelevant. That goes for everything short of a carrier. Hell, the ground cannon at the end of Reach one shot a Battlecruiser because it’s shields were down.
And even the smallest of nukes would absolutely be terrifying in space combat
Just to get 2 shots off without the sound wave reaching your target justifies the mach 11 velocity. Longer ranges or slower rounds may shift the time for each shot, but at less than 500 yard ranges, the speed of sound gives you very little time for the round to hit, to sight, and then discharge. Obviously at ranges beyond a half mile you've got a reasonable amount of time even with conventional rifles, but unless the round is fast, there isnt any 'walking the shot', much less knowing if your first shot missed before taking the second shot.
I want to see a video on 2 rocks, the stick, and how the stick is shared!!
I agree! And to show how effective sharing the rock was. (2 sticks and a rock and we had to share the rock)😅
Always a great day when 00 posts an armory video!
"War. War never changes. If you want to kill someone, use a rock. If a rock dosent work, use a pointy rock. If that doesn't work, use something to throw that pointy rock really fast. And if that doesn't work, use a bigger rock. Repeat as needed."
I've loved the railgun as it helped to kill bigger enemies. Hope it comes to Infinite, maybe even if was in Banished made.
isn't it kinda redundant with the skewer?
@@scelonferdi The skewer has arcing shots, the railgun is straight fire, like a hit scan. There are be a balance like the skewer does more damage where as the railgun has better aim, but could be a chance of defection against very heavy armor.
@@scelonferdi skewer has travel and drop
@@WolfeSaber9933 True, but ultimately they serve a very similar role. I have the feeling that infinite is going for more distinction in it's guns than the last few titles
@@scelonferdi Railgun is semiexplosive and has AOE. It serves a completely different purpose lol
For when you want to kill the HVT in the bunker that’s behind the armoured vehicle above 1.5kms away. The railgun has you.
Ah railguns, did you know they are made of 50% rail 50% gun. The first railgun was made when the warriors Rail and Gun used the kais earrings and fused into Railgun to defeat an enemy.
Dragon ball reference
Excellent memery, thank you.
Uhh, did you have a stroke, sir?
that was an excellent video over one of my favorite weapons in Halo 4. I'd be interested in knowing more about the Target Locator as it's a rather unique within any title's sandbox and hasn not made an appearance since 2010.
Id like to see the commando rifle, and if you can, id appreciate a canon answer to why it replaced the DMR
I believe theyre using the term recoilless rifle in the classification sense, rather than the literal one. Example, the m1 and m2 bazookas are recoiless rifles by military classification.
Ion field bomb launcher
i kinda wanna see something from the forerunners. I know theres not much known and they are really advanced, but i wanna see if there’s anything you can say about them. Maybe one thats been around for a while, like the sentinel beam or a *simple* one like the lightrifle?
Edit: or you could make a video about all forerunner weapons and what we know about them
Best Weapon for the next Armory video? The portable Scorpion turret from Halo Infinite. Try to explain that one ^^
One of my favorite UNSC weapons. Great video!
I really love these kinds of lore videos.
Armory request: Sweet William Cigars 🚬
Great Video can wait to see the other Halo Armor and weapons review
As always thank you for your work
That intro was beautiful. Well done
The recoil from anything at mach 11 would be hysterical to shoulder if it wasn't mitigated by magnet magic.
1. The recoil from a rail gun pushes out against the rails. 2. You could not fire on more than one person before they heard the sound of the gun because the bullet is super sonic and the would be pretty loud.
I think a better example of how strong the rail gun would be is that the 30 mm round from an A-10 warthog has 149,546 foot pounds of energy, meaning the rail gun has about roughly 6.5 times more energy than that. So tbh I don’t think it should have too much trouble with any ground vehicles barring things like scarabs. Granted I know the numbers you came up with aren’t 100% accurate because we don’t have the official data and that covenant nanolaminate is some serious stuff, but the point remains.
I think the plasma caster or launcher would make a cool video.
Thank you for this one
This was a great wespon honestly it could one shot most infantry and was good for knocking over things like warthogs and ghosts same as the skewer.
I... Don't think the Spartans have to personally pay for their own weapons...
Such a cool weapon.
The railgun is probably my favorite weapon in concept but I’m terrible using it in game 🙃
I feel like a better way of calculating the velocity would be to have an estimation of the energy available in the cartridge powering the shot. From that we should be able to calculated a fast can a round of this mass be accelerated by an EM field and with that amount of energy available to power the field. We know the size of the involved battery, and at this point we have a good idea of the battery technologies the unsc uses, so this seems possible to me.
33lbs holy moly, I feel for the Marines I made carry these
A recoil less rifle generally means a weapon that has no equipment for the absorption of recoil and not a rifle that has recoil.
it was the worst day ever for me when i realised it was removed
Can we get an armory video about the Hannibal variants of stuff? Like the Hannibal Scorpion or the Hannibal Wasp
I'm disappointed they used the old 'rail guns need a split barrel' trope. Totally unrealistic; it'd wind up looking like Elmer Fudd's shotgun after Buggs stuffs a carrot in it.
mentioned this in another reply, rule of cool, i hate it
It's to keep it cool as in lower temperatures.
@@tristanbackup2536 the problem is, rail guns work by directing a force perpendicular to the projectile (and barrel). That force would be pushing those two booms apart, and it's quite a bit of force. That thing would come apart in your hands, and it's unlikely that would be a pleasant experience.
@@sorceryfarm6535
Lucky they made advances in material science that it can withhold that amount of force.
@@tristanbackup2536 the pinch force required to accelerate a 170g projectile to Mach 11 is going to push two unconnected booms apart, regardless of what they're made from, without some sort of tethering.
Nice take on the rail gun. Think you coud make one of the MA5K? As it was a favoured weapon of unsc special forces.
What about the sentinel beam?
I'd love to see the hydra launcher done
would love to see an armoury vid on the m99 stanchion.
I'm pretty sure using an explosive round would decrease the actual effectiveness of the weapon.
If anything you would want to use a tungsten or depleted uranium hollow point type of round to ensure effective transfer of energy to the target...
You should do the sentinel beam or the disruptor pistol or the hydra or mangler
do the needeler next
Already gave it the treatment a while ago.
They need to give that engineer from Halo 3 ODST this gun. He/She/It/They could probably figure it out. And his old buddy Buck will probably be the first one to test it out. If Buck and the rest of Fire Team Phoenix is still alive
I am new to the channel. I don’t know if you have done this already but I would like it if you did a video comparing all known models of the AR
Nice
You should cover the vk78 commando
Ayyy, the Mini MAC!
can the next video be about the different kind of sentinel beams?
Banished Mauler next!
Can you talk about the Plasma Repeater at some point?
Mach 11? Ahhh yes, hitscan irl
I would love to see a video on the Mangler.
what about the brute spike grenade?
Installation00 please cover the "piss" gun from cursed halo.
Fun to shoot. Needs higher capacity
I was just thinking about you
Or, if you're daring... a linear fusion rifle.
This and the SAW were the best things 343 created IMO and neither are in Infinite lol.
The Stanchion and is it feasible in the next decade/century?
Binary rifle next?
Halo Infinite felt like a real step back in terms of weapons, vehicles, and feeling of being a spartan
CAS assault carrier
how about the big brother of the railgun, the M99 Stanchion!
Can we do a video on the sticky bomb rifle
Didn't Waypoint said the round traveled at *hypersonic velocity* ?
Mach 9 is more reasonable than M99's Mach 43.6... 😂
It’s def not recoilless it moves w
Each shot
Ravager would be cool
Why in fucks name does a railgun slug have explosive filler that just kneecaps its kinetic power
Think of it less as an explosive filler and more as a bursting charge. Humans can survive having a surprisingly large number of holes poked completely through them, as long as none intersect with anything particularly vital, and it can be assumed that the same applies to the larger, more durable Covenant species. Which is to say that through and throughs, as would be expected of a solid slug, are less than ideal for anti-personnel work. Put a small explosive charge in the slug that will fragment it just as it passes through the target's body armor, though, and it will dump the entirety of its kinetic energy into their soft, squishy flesh.
Or in simpler terms, it's a hyper velocity hollow point.
I wanna see the rocket launcher next
Already covered it before.
could you cover the forunner binary rifle next
Spartan Laser next please!
Already covered it.
@@Installation00 Sounds good, I'll check it out!
Feel the weight!!!!!!!
I can't wait to hear what you say about the HRUNTING Mark III Cyclops. Gundam Anyone?
Heatwave
Not sure if you did it already but the concussion rifle from halo reach
I do recall covering it, yes.
@@Installation00 yo can you ban this spammer? He keeps commenting on every comment here
these weapons should be way more devastating in game tbh2
When are we gonna get more Fireteam Ares…
Soon.
Fuel rod cannon.
Already covered this one.
Any chance you will do some Half Life stuff? HL2 in particular has some whacky stuff like the Pulse Rifle.
Can you cover the Spiker?
I believe I already have.
What is the name of the intro song?
How about the ”Gauss-Sniper” sorry don’t remember the actual name
M99 Stanchion
Can you do the m99
