Ah i see what u mean, yeah i wish they'd make the store like basically everything is available for purchase _but_ they make the bundles cost less than buying each item in it. I also kinda wish theyd implement a market of sorts like tf2 so they reorient peoples concepts of armour being unlockables into items of commerce. Because the way i see it, tf2s gonna live a bit long because of good base gameplay, good cosmetics, fun socials, and good memetics (its everywhere and the default models on sfm), and a community market so youre gonna have people encourage and be encouraged to trade stuff around for profit or whatever so as to keep the market where they get value out of alive. The social aspect is way important as well, as to let people be humanised in the game instead of just being people to shoot at and pin your frustrations on to.
I guarantee you that most of the armor in the shop rn was supposed to go into this seasons battle pass and since we didn’t get a pass they’re just selling the armor.
not necessarily my biggest issue with the Prometheans (but one that bugs me the more i think about it) is that they don't make sense to have been made to combat the flood. The sentinel forms from the bungie era were logically better suited to combat them than the promethean forms we see, despite apparently the bungie ones being more for construction stuff and the prometheans supposed to be for warfare or whatever. The sentinels can all fly making them immune to melee attacks for the most part, unlike the majority of prometheans that are like dogs or bipeds, for some fucking reason. And flying helps traverse the complex tunnels on most installations that would otherwise slow down not flying things (like the flood & prometheans). The sentinel beams attached to robots with near perfect aim would be very good against the flood (even if in campaign the devs turned down the accuracy number on their AI), but most promethean weapons would just be a pain to use against the flood, mostly because they have significant travel time. Also the enforcers aren't horrible either, their big grabby claws aren't super useful, but the 1-way big shield walls they have and missile pods would be pretty effective in larger open areas. Prometheans have some guns that can completely disintegrate matter which is useful, but these are only the rarer weapons, not the standard issue ones. The biggest thing the prometheans have going for them is the watchers, but i kinda feel like they're OP in an inconsistent way when compared with what's around them. They can fly, have shields, can shoot a pistol gun (but can also have the sniper, not sure where that fits, their butt?), can generate 1-way shield walls for themselves and allies, use a tractor beam to grab, throw and manipulate things like grenades AND can just magically regenerate fallen allies. All in roughly the same volume as a sentinel. They aren't even portrayed as being a particularly expensive unit for the prometheans to field. I guess some of them can also teleport but I'm not sure how many points I want to give them for that seeing as how it doesn't seem to be used very consistently/intelligently in halo 4. Like at any point in the campaign thousands of prometheans should've just teleported in and jumped the UNSC as soon as the covenant reported where they were, or just checked their radar i guess
a bungie esque moment that infinite had (imo) was in warship gabrakon (or however the hell you spell that) MC: it's locked down; requires a hack Esparza: okay, and you can do that right? MC:*already throwing a punch* *No*
I love halo4 soundtrack, especially to galaxy and arrival Halo5 soundtrack are also nice, but you are right, most sound too generic. I mean they are a good addition to the game, but not something that can be remembered. The only part I really like was the opening (light is green) when the halo5 guardian title shows up, it is pure epic. However the rest of the campaign just undermines the great opening lol
@@kokomart_in 117, Lasky theme, are all very nice. I played halo4 during my middle school, it was a great memory, especially the menu screen music, pure solitude
ngl i didnt mind Bkue Teams voice, i thought they all sounded as they should, and im fact when i read the books with blue team i read it in their voices, maybe linda was a bit too bland and cold but i like to attribute that to her being a disconnected sniper who's always trying to stay zen. But i genuinely think fred and kelly sojnded great as they were, kellys accent is cute too
On the subject of Palmer: I don’t much mind her in the campaigns, but I was very annoyed by her in Spartan Ops. Sometimes it comes across like she would rather just kill scientists rather than send people to save them.
Finally somebody said it, i never played Halo wars because i dont like RTS and never understood who the hell was the banish i had to watch 2h worth of video to understand the background. Im so tired of 343 thinking we are in any obligation to play a RTS, read 2-3 books and 1 audio book to understand their timeline.
On the topic of Halo 4 amd 5's Spartans. I think a lot of people hear that Spartans are great at represssing emotion amd think that means they have NO emotions. Spartans have never been tgese walking metal men like the Cybermen in Doctor Who, they have personalities including annoying ones.
coming back to watch this from the start as I joined halfway through the stream. man I also think people at 343 should watch this stream. they could learn something.
Good stream. I hope they eventually add more weapons to the game. Also, I think Jul 'Mdama was done dirty. If they wanted to kill him, it would have been more interesting if he was killed by Atriox signifying the end of the Covenant remnants and a start of a new Banished era.
Armor BUNDLES with 3 sets of armor was $2.99 in halo 4. These bundles have absolutely 0 right being $20. I mean that's actual theft. Not a chance. I'm just like you man. I don't even consider it a chance. Its not happening. The screen is black.
You know why it slapped and still does. Cause it was made by a team that actually respected the IP and not just 343i self inserting and artisticly changing the original vision. #fire343i
@JustMisterFox Hhmmm. Well, there's a new free core with 2 variations for free. Then there are like 6 more variations for that core in the shop. Both the new weapon skins are paid, but one is pretty cheap. So it's close to 20%? There are a number of free helmets and visor colours coming over the next few weeks for free as well.
@alexlyster3459 There are six Mk IV armor sets in the shop, but 8 helmets you need to pay for. You KNOW those new helmets coming in the next few weeks WILL be free?
That title screen man. It just makes me wish we had campaign DLC.
The last one was great too, and another place I wish we could actually visit.
If only it didn't force you to buy the entire bundle.
It's like they just cut what would have been a standard battlepass and chucked it all in an overpriced bundle
It doesn't force you...? You can just... not?
@@alexlyster3459 they mean that in order to get any of the cosmetics, you must buy the whole bundle.

Don't think we were ever getting a pass as it's a content update not a season, but nevertheless
We never got more than like 2 armour sets in the battle pass anyway
@@Ripa-MorameeIt's not a season because they cut the necessary content and put it in the store
@@existentialselkath1264 It's not a season because 343 are redirecting their resources onto the next halo game.
@@Ripa-Moramee yet they clearly still had enough resources to make enough content for another season, it's just all in the store

The Halo 4 soundtrack is honestly way underrated. It's up to par with H3 for me and a bit under H2. 117 is top tier.

“American football player armor”
As someone who doesn't like those kind of games, I hated this one as well. I played maybe an hours worth of halo wars and said nope.

Halo is more flip music to me
So why is this click bait? I came for Wars. I couldn't care less about Infinite.
"Clickbait" the thumbnail says halo infinite on the bottom left and the title means that halo wars got slapped into halo infinite
Same, i didn't notice the "Halo Infinite" icon in *very small* letters on the bottom left corner until somebody mentioned it, what a shame.
