• Halo Wars DE: A Close ...
I remember being a kid playing against my friend who was much better at the game and seeing the horror of a post patch scarab + all engineers. The sheer terror of seeing a well-balanced late game army get annihilated in seconds still haunts me to this day. Probably the only moment that made me feel like the real UNSC fighting the covenant.
The Jesus Scarab
Halo Wars Scarabs are uh... Well they may as well be the most Lore Accurate depiction of the things we'll see for a while. At least in terms of how terrifying and dangerous they are.
@@kabob0077 I honestly think Halo Wars 2's Banished Scarab got it right too, at least in look, sound, and feel. That thing was horrifying.
@@zombiecowboy4946 Those work too but the OG Halo Wars Scarabs can climb...
The real unsc facing the covenant is straight up "aliens lose cause yes"
Halo Wars 1 is a legit masterpiece.
Facts
Way to underrated
Too bad HW2 spat on that legacy and created a game with hardly any basis in the original. Classic 343/Microsoft "stewardship" of the franchise (yes, I know 343/MS didn't make HW2, but they did let people who didn't understand the original make it).
Prophet used to be on a gravity chair, the devs just swapped it out for a wheel chair.
1:39 It looks SO much better post patch, it's like the base just mobilized a whole garrison and everyone is running out as fast as they can get their gear on or get mounted up.
I agree way better
Prepatch Prophet was just silly on Chasms. You could go Temple first, get the beam upgrade, delete the Temple for the full 500 refund, stop their 3rd building from getting up, then start beaming down their remaining two buildings.
He was amazing. I wish he could have his speed back
He was too pure for this world
😂
I didn't have my xbox 360 hooked up to the internet my entire childhood so this was just how the game worked for me :)
same here
I love Halo Wars, the credits is just sad, everybody saying good bye.
will be nice to see ES working on something again.
I agree! The studio is closed unfortunately, maybe someday
Some day 😃👍🏻
Haven't watched the video yet but I just wanted to say that this is a good example of "good thumbnails = more views" because the prophet with the flaming tire tracks behind him is pretty silly and got my attention
I'm shocked you did not discuss Professor Anders's cryo-bomb insta killing all air units.
Does it not anymore
@@swaggermoney9110 No
@@isaachaley2112 even maxed?
@@swaggermoney9110 It still destroys air units, very good get-out-of-jail free card against vultures
T1 Gremlins were so annoying. I remember the first cheese combo being mass jackals and gremlins lol
I nearly forgot about how I use to actually play this game online back in the day. Strategies were (and still are) my favorite type of game back then, but I never, NEVER, did online multiplayer in them. This game however, was the one exception. Even though I was just a kid who usually got beat bad, I actually thought online was more fun than with bots. The battles were just so much cooler online. But I remember I spent so much time playing online, that I actually got good enough to play vs other people and actually have a fair chance at winning. One of my favorite memories of this game was in an online match on a flood map where I rushed mass jump jet brutes. Since the map was essentially layers of rings with chasms in between them I was able to sneak all my brutes behind someone's fully max'd base, jump jet'd them all over the chasm straight onto the same spot and just bursted down the central building before destroying anything else xD.
My brother owned Halo Wars on an Xbox 360 we never ended up connecting to the internet... crazy to think that I didn't even notice most of the Anders nerfs when watching some of your other vids because she is still simply that broken...
Mentioning this because no one I've seen has. The 5% damage to turrets when there are four turrets doesnt add up to 20%. It just does 5% more damage than 4 turrets would do before.
Lets say supply depot gives you 100/ minute. I buff it by 5% for 105/ minute.
Then 10 supply depots would previously give 1000/ minute and now give 1050/minute. That's still a 5% increase.
Thanks for writing this so I didn't have to 😂
beam tracking, i think, means that if a unit is strafing around the hunters, the hunters will be able to rotate faster and stay on target more often instead of lagging their beams behind.
This is definitely possible boom
This was the case. I played back in the day and pre patch you could run circles around hunters, it was actually meta to not get the beam upgrade. Post patch the beams sticked to the target. Fun fact, there is a glitch with hunters where the beam will sometimes jump from a vehicle to an aircraft. I've had that happen to me and once they start targeting air, they will keep doing so until they stop firing letting them mow down aircraft very quickly. I've only seen it happen twice in the hundreds of hours playing the game.
You know you're watching someone of your own kind when it takes them several seconds to divide 250 by 2. Us halo wars 1 players are all the same haha
division is hard bro lol
Jesus
I got the game when it came out, but didn’t play multiplayer for a while
I never knew of the speed demon Prophet
Sad
big sad
In campaign, units still come out of an unlocked base extremely slowly 1 by 1 style even today
The cryo reactor glitch worked on ally reactors and covenant temples. There was a time where it was meta to run behind an anders base and disruptor bomb it so they could not cryo bomb it and rush them down.
The counter to the prophet rush back then was to mack rush 😂.
Me who never had Xbox live so my games were original anyway: *chuckles*
I need to check some of these things, the slow base unlock units, and gremlins being T1 are true for me so far, Interesting
I remember Anders was pretty much unbeatable if she froze her base and destroyed her reactors.
fellow halo wars enjoyer
Love this game still don’t stop making these
She'll never die!
I mean, this is just default halo wars to me. I got the disk version and didn't have an internet connection on my 360...
Masterpiece video
You missed the most important nerf. GRIZZLIES.
Isn't pre-patch basically if you play on an old xbox 360 nowadays?
Anders description says it researches 50% faster in the menus, is that a lie?
Yes, that was never changed after the patch. It's actually 25%
@@TurnipVids nice lol. So she isn’t as OP as I thought but still very good.
7:42 That is not how percentages work 😆
@@CHURCHISAWESUM True but you don’t have to laugh at the guy making a free video for you to enjoy.
I still have my 360 copy. And a 360 that’s never seen online since… I don’t remember.
This whole time, I thought you got full money back for any building still.
Halo Wars history channel
time to TURNNN UPPOP
Yoooooo
I wish they would make a halo wars 3
Miss the speedy profit still to this day 😢
Awesome content.
Thank you Sierra 117
2:15 which didn't affect those of us who were dead set on economy builds
Holy crap they buff to the grunts to do more against air bro when they get needlers they Dominate and demolish air units adding more damage is amazing you could have this huge infantry column Go versus this huge are Brigade I just watched everything in the sky just start collapsing I think there was one point where we shot down to vulture's with like 50 some odd grunts though I do remember in the old game if you clicked the Infantry fast enough you could get above the unit cap and get at least 51 sometimes 52
2:39 STRUCTURE SOLD
Ooops wrong game
conscript training finished!
@@Void_Warsjoin my fucking party invites
My friend said you could hijack a cyclops with a Spartan
Not true unfortunately
Your friend is a tard
does this game have decent player base anymore i havent been able to find a game on steam or xbox
Yes! on the Definitive Edition on Xbox there is a decent player count
@@TurnipVids is there cross play between pc and xbox players through the xbox app?
@@thegreatone9774 Nope, no cross play at all on any platform sadly. You can use xcloud to play it from a PC but its streaming the game from your Xbox console
Great video!
Thanks!
🤠
What sound effect is your intro...I know it...its from an old game but I can't put my finger on it. What is it from?
It’s the Ensemble Studios Sound that pays when you boot up halo wars
Hell no I loved my Gauss hogs I was able to demolished Scarab after Scarab after Scarab with them but after they Nerf the crap out of them they do nothing to the Scarab anymore
I just liked and subscribe because of this intro
Thanks! I'm very proud of it lol
I won Juan.
Also buen video Turnip gracias!!
I’ve been lacking on the halo wars vids😞
De nada amigo!
Turnip is not good at math
3:40 What absolute BULLSHITTERY is this? Thank GOD this was patched because that's blatantly overpowered.
5:21 Given how OP Hawks are this is a good thing imo.
6:14 I miss the old Cleansing Beam...
7:00 Hang on, is that an M32?
Which do you think is better, Halo wars 1 or 2?
Morbius
Morbius is my favorite leader, his morbin power is so strong
I wish ther units could be buffed. It would help balance out hogs.
Maybe someday Ben, life is long
@@TurnipVids I will mod it in once I figure out how!
