Could T Rex Survive Halo's Ark? (Installation 00)

[@dominicwilliams7447]

The idea of the T-Rex on the ark would be pretty cool and I do think there's room for other species of Earth's histories that could fit on the Oregon not to mention their The descendants who adapted to each situation climate of the environments like saber-toothed tigers cave bears triceratops or interestingly enough the famous gigantopithecus I think this species would be mostly like the kong species from the monster verse the new empire in the face of the brutes would be funny if they found out that there was a giant gorilla species on the ark but it would be interesting if there was a video on neanderthal on the ark or if you've heard of the Afghanistan Giant play the video on Isaac these two would be interesting cuz if the banished or a covenant came across how do you spell these creatures who are the UFC it would be very interesting how it would all go but I found something that would be interesting and I don't know what's Canon but there was a video called Master Chief joins the banished I'll be most curious about what video like that would go even though I saw a short clip I'm just curious how that would work cuz he's now working for the banished but it's up to you you have a good day do keep up the good work 👍👍

[@JoshuaBelanger-c2r]

Tyrannosaurus had an estimated range of 12 to 15 km/h in speed. It did not go the same speed as a bear.

So long as the flood isn't present I think T-Rex should be able to survive pretty well, unless it's just too good of a predator that it eventually starves itself to death.

There are containment zones with a Flood outbreak on the Ark, and if even a single spore gets lose a Rex could get infected.

Loved it! The analysis, art and editing were all 11/10. I'm looking forward to more collabs!

[@PixelatedAutism-mw5iv]

I think the reason the flood tyrant form stepped on the infection forms is because, the tyrannosaurs rex's animal instinct kicked in, and the flood need creatures that have intelligence and not instinct, to be able to connect to the hivemind of the flood.

[@ItsButterBean1020]

Nah tbh we know the Flood use animals too so I think it’s more that either the Infection form was limited somehow or it was recently infected

[@elixavibuddies2951]

​​@@ItsButterBean1020my guess is that the t rexs brain cant process the orders of the hive mind correctly basically Hivemind:attack the elites and unsc T rex:Ok(steps on a bunch of flood forms while charging at unsc and elites) Hive mind:wait no thats not what i mean take the other wa- you know what nvm he did it anyways

Dude halo needs stuff like this! Imagine what they can do with wildlife being used against the player and flood infected animals especially dinosaurs!

[@JahblessThomas]

I got an idea , how about bearded dragons survive in rain world video game , i mean who wouldn't want to see a bearded dragon encounter a green lizard ?

[@Train_lizard]

Green lizard would probably be the least of its worries, they’re slower, can’t climb poles, + the fact that a bearded dragon would probably be smaller than a hazer and not worth the trouble. Notice how the larger lizard species don’t go after stuff like batflies or jellyfish, overall I think smaller predators like blue lizards or slugcats would be a much more serious problem

[@JahblessThomas]

@@Train_lizard precisely my point

[@person4579]

do we know the actual sizes of the animals?

[@thespacedinos4037]

@person4579 assuming the rubbish inside the game is the size of a brick, lizards would be terrifying. Bearded dragons would be ignored by most creatures except slugcats and strawberry lizards.

This might be the best video covering Halo fauna out there between the the various fanarts and the 3D images (especially the morolaath found I'm grateful to see so much effort put in! I didn't even realize how possible this scenario even was! The idea of Tyrannosaurus surviving alongside the Galaxys exotic fauna is tantalizing, by far the best episode of this series yet!

[@LitmusPapyrus]

Small note about the thorn beast, they have neurotoxins in their head and neck potent enough that Brutes will, despite immensely enjoying the rest of the creature, entirely remove everything from the neck forwards and refuse to eat it

[@MadlyMesozoic]

Here's an idea for a video: "Could Parasaurolophus survive on planet Namek/New Namek from the Dragon Ball franchise."(Barring any super powered threats posing the planet like Freeza, Buu and/or Beerus)

[@avatar11792]

That was a HELL of a first fictional crossover! Absolutely loved it! Everything made sense, the artwork was incredible, and the *redacted* Rex at the end gave me honest to god shivers. The voice acting was very good for a coop project. I feel bad that you didn't cover Sangheili or Brutes against a Rex (armor or not), but I get that tool-using sapients is slightly unfair, even if the Rex is so much bigger than them. Artwork would have been sick, though. Can't wait to see more of these fictional crossovers, if they're as good as this one was! EDIT: SPARTAN-REX project when?

[@Elephant_Empire0]

Suggestion: Could camels survive Sand Kingdom from Super Mario Odyssey

[@ravagerlizard9800]

[@TyrannoWright]

16:14 I remember drawing alien creatures like this for a game concept in middle/high school the variety of them might as well being something from Doom Eternal when my inspirations were Half-Life, FEAR, and Crysis. So weird seeing the design actually executed in Halo lore compared to the early CE design. That flood form though is just pure nightmare fuel. It may as well be a walking fortress for carrying spores and spreading the growth.

[@Liam-lx8xb]

The guta or the morolaath?

[@TyrannoWright]

@@Liam-lx8xb ...morolaath.

[@Liam-lx8xb]

@@TyrannoWright I think the guta looks more like something from doom.

[@TyrannoWright]

@@Liam-lx8xb You missed the point. The concept of the game setting was like Doom Eternal, but with aliens than demons. The creatures themselves did not take after the game because the Doom reboot never existed then. The morolaath though was the basis for a tank creature in my imagination, while the rest were more akeen to the less animalistic aliens of Half-Life. There was a flying variant I did though that was done in Eternal.

[@Liam-lx8xb]

@@TyrannoWright mb. If one of the archetypes was a tank what were some other creatures you had?

[@myleswelnetz6700]

More strengths you forgot to mention: 1. Agility. Given their evolutionary history and preferred prey, a T rex’s pelvic bones evolved to help them make alarmingly sharp turns with less effort than other animals their own size. 2. Armor. When it came to natural armor on a T rex, there was more than met the eye. Since their puny arms couldn’t stop a Triceratops from skewering them or help them get up off the ground, their chubby frame and gastralia did all that work instead. 3. Resilience. T rex hunted many kinds of dangerous dinosaurs every day, and the deadliest among them was either an adult Triceratops or another T rex, and they had to be tough enough to shrug off their attacks.

FINALLYYY IVE BEEN WATCHING ALL THE STREAMS FOR THIS ONE LETS GOOOO

[@farenthor7409]

I feel like even if T-rexes footsteps sounded like a smaller animal, the blind wolves would probably still run off as soon as the Rex lets off a roar or really any sound besides footsteps because the blind wolves would most definitely be able to tell that those sounds didn’t come from smaller prey if they’re hearing is that good. Also I’d like to think that they probably have a type of echolocation potentially with their amazing hearing and therefore could “see” how big their opponent was once they got closer (though obviously there’s no evidence for this)

[@UnwantedGhost1-anz25]

As always, an amazing video which deserves so much more recognition. I hope you do the Monsterverse in the near future. Imagine Skull Crawlers in Installation 00?

[@thenerdbeast7375]

One understated advantage of the Night Hawk is with its much smaller and gracile build compared to the ancestral species they will mature much more quickly, likely taking at least five years off maybe even halving the maturation period. This will be a huge advantage in breeding for the species compared to ancestral T.rex and will help them keep up with the competitive environment of the Ark especially against its base species kin.

[@smitabhmoitra5726]

Couple of errors here, but overall good video! More modern estimates for T.rex speed are closer to the speed of a very athletic human (20mph). Faster than almost everything it lived with, but nowhere near big cat speed. Being a 2-legged animal, having 10,000 kilogrammes move faster than about 20mph would seriously damage the leg joints. Elephants can manage higher speeds because they have four legs for those wondering, since elephants can be 8,000 kilogrammes for big males. Also, it was about 4-4.5 metres tall at the hip.
