Halo 5 - New/Updated Weapon Idle Animations

[@TheAussieWaffler]

i think we all need to appreciate that this guy took 2 hours of his time to make this 5 minute video

[@Nighty-N]

True that.

[@cryoape7833]

*2 hours to record excluding the editing

[@romuluspalaiologosxiii5171]

When you said took2hours that grabbed my attention

[@RhangDao]

"Is this side of the gun still here... yep... what about the other side... yep..."

[@shotwell25]

xD I laughed my ass of at thIs!

[@ZeroSilverPhoenix]

This is gold xD Laughed too hard

[@samalkhazraji3899]

Nobody ever checks the front. For good reason I might add lol

[@nerodius58]

+Osama Alkhazraji what if you have an itchy trigger finger

[@natebit7167]

RhangDao yeah like what is the purpose of turning it over exactly? 😂

[@PlGGS]

The boltshot animations are insane

[@duaneclarence8758]

Yeah! Who knew that the button on the side was for disassembling/checking the weapon?

[@shadowflame099]

Duane Clarence I agree. Still a cool animation since the pieces fit perfectly in their place one after another.

[@shadowomega6566]

PlGGS it's like Putting legos back together

[@ayelmao1224]

Wish pulling back the slide was part of the empty reload animation

[@TheActMan]

Goddamn those animations are sweet!

[@ThresherC88]

The Act Man Didn't think I'd find you here a year later lol. I'd ask if you have a favorite but I'm assuming you've long forgotten this vid XD

[@amirhamza8924]

One question: Is your name really Kelly Vanact?

[@joandarc441]

Ahhhhhhhh daddy

[@thephantomforcesguy9544]

Wait what

[@SadgeFrawg]

i wish there was an idle animation where the character would pretend to shoot and go "pew pew pew"

[@kristen0009]

it would actually be nice and funny

[@No_Face1313]

Yeah that's pretty fucking gay

[@kodiak_9169]

+Steven Rivera it gave me a boner but who would give two shits about my boner

[@No_Face1313]

Me

[@ZackLee]

That would be cool XD

[@LordStabbyNZ]

Boltshot defiantly the most interesting animation.

[@SuperSilver7591]

agreed

[@hiramaguilar4897]

I found the gravity hammer inside SCARY

[@Spectralyzed]

LordStabbyNZ Agreed

[@philipmohlin3887]

how is it defiant?

[@johnambrose9146]

@@philipmohlin3887 While online, people frequently misspell definitely. If you're going to be so stringent on grammar, let me point out that you have not capitalized the first letter of your sentence.

[@HaloFollower-Ron]

I just watched a 5 minute video of idle animations. Was pretty cool. Great video - Tucker

[@Jon-kx3ut]

Hi halo follower

[@MrMastrmonstr]

were you idle while you watched idle animations?

[@JoshEastham]

hey

[@Ghost.8456]

Found u

[@MrMastrmonstr]

found who???

[@furbyguy]

I like how a lot of the animations let us see the weapons a little better. They really put a lot of work into making them look awesome.

[@jakeandthebowtie]

I love the personality the idle animations give to the Spartans - they make it feel as if your Spartan is actually human - plus, I love the tinkering they do...

[@fob1257]

Spartans gotta have their little fun every once and a while. And they all got it from the Chief himself who loves tinkering and examining his weapons.

[@HaloFanRedvsBLue12]

1:42 "Wow man, that Spartan must be, like, perfecting the aiming for longer ranges!" "Of course, those guys are professionals." Spartan: _"Boop... boop... beep beep beep... beep boop beep. Shit, people are looking."_

[@darkmoonspecopsdmso2776]

Well, the Spartans now have many characteristics that separate them from the originals because of the fact that normal soldiers can enlist and join the program whereas Chief's generation where trained to be the ultimate soldiers.

[@BroeyBroe]

Wow, that's actually pretty impressive of how much detail are in some of these like the hydra, grav hammer and boltshot. Its a nice touch :)

[@angelsideuk6197]

Boltshot had the best animation

[@BroeyBroe]

The ArcAngel™ Yeah, the boltshot had really good detail, but the hammer i liked too :)

[@CarnationVT]

I like how with the hydra he is just pressing buttons... I wonder whats going through his mind... He is probs thinking "I LOVE BUTTONS"

[@BroeyBroe]

Cokeofdoom Gaming "BUTTONS? OO I LOVE BUTTONS"

[@CarnationVT]

+Broey XD

[@SegaMario]

I like how the Pistol, AR, SMG and DMR have animations specifically designed to show off the skins. XD

[@MannequinOngaku]

I love how all the covenant ones seem like they're curiously fiddling with them :)

[@bearofthewest7644]

Yeah

[@tylerparaz6786]

ikr

[@patrickwaldron3984]

That’s a really good point 👍 It’s interesting as well because it is alien technology, something us humans aren’t familiar with.

[@HellJumpxr]

i would highly enjoy idle animations being set to the d-pad

[@jakedarling7549]

3:59 Grav hammer is powered by dubstep

[@deadshock568]

Literally getting my head smashed in buy some speakers and a gyro-scope.

[@IAmNumber4000]

Lol that gravity hammer animation is pretty damn cool

[@joshuak5798]

+jeremy ray same here, gives a bit more insight into why it's called a gravity hammer with that spinning core.

[@kaotikdave]

yea it does look pretty interesting..looks a gysroscope in the core

[@tostie3110]

Halo is one of those franchises that's my favourite, just because it's not all space magic.

[@tostie3110]

jeremy ray Yes, exactly. And the universe isn't so big that anything can happen. Partially why I'm not interested in the forerunner or precursor stories though.

[@gabrielnogoy]

I love how you can take a good look at the internals of some of the weapons. Especially the Gravity Hammer. And don't get me started on the sounds of the gun clicking and rattling as the Spartan moves it around. Gave me goosebumps.

[@Hectorlo]

That's called ASMR my friend.

[@romand271]

1:45 Caboose STOP PUSHING THE BUTTONS!!

[@neonsquid8841]

Caboose: BUTTONS I LOVE BUTTONS ...BEEP BOP BOOP

[@Model_BT-7274]

but I'm great at buttons

[@darkrager872]

I MAY THINK THAT BE RED VS BLUE "GRIF TURN THOSE DAMN CAPS OFF"

[@rangerclose9114]

push

[@edgegod4223]

push

[@Cameron088]

I love how you see inside of the Grav Hammer!

[@Hectorlo]

Yeah it's really impressive the amount of detail the put into stuff you're not even supposed to see during normal gameplay.

[@Cameron088]

I know! Its cool

[@Cameron088]

Also, I like the Hydra's, pushing buttons!

[@itscritical]

not rly but halo is a console game so i don't know wat goes on there

[@slvrcobra1337]

Wow, most of these are WAY better than they used to be. There's actually some really good ones in there, I love the animations that show the functions of the weapon.

[@bromos9535]

Pretty cool how the idle animations on certain weapons like the M57 rocket launcher and the gravity hammer show hidden details that you can't normally see, or that you would only get a brief glimpse of when going into smart scope.

[@Sofuretu]

Nice to see they gave Spartans a bit more personality with these new idles. The second hammer one was amazing.

[@FiShDiShFilms]

1:43, the Hydra and all of the Covenant guns have really cool idle animations.

[@MrMegaDude201]

I thought the idle animation for energy sword was he was going to touch it and it zapped him. LOL

[@ijokster5648]

He wouldn't get zapped, his finger would probably burn off.

[@moeybardy]

true it would just fall off

[@UMadbro43]

I swear to god I thought the same thing, would have been a funny touch!

[@ProTyle]

Nice pun

[@mrphwibbs9766]

My ideas: Pokes needler's needle, explodes Plays pacman on hydra's screen, Gets finger caught in boltshit, Looks down the shot gun barrel, Tries to flip the plasma pistol and catch it, fails

[@TJM990]

The Boltshot's are the coolest. You even get the slow mo build from picking it up the first time in Halo 4.

[@AltShiftSpam]

Never really noticed how good the graphics are! Also the Promethean weapons are really cool, 4:07.

[@SageAhmed2222]

love the inside of the gravity hammer at 4:00, a small gyroscope can be seen. pretty sweet.

[@hawkeyeninja]

The sounds of the character handling the weapons make for some good ASMR

[@Hectorlo]

They kinda do yeah, sleep well my friend.

[@fullarmormrnewtypex3rx-036]

+maddy yep you play halo :3

[@cadl6985]

A lot of these are really cool because you get to see how the guns work and where the scopes and everything are. I like it!

[@ninjapie117]

Just something that add to such an awesome game. As an aspiring animator I love all the little details they input in the game. Like Idle animations aren't needed but they are so good.

[@ReaverNightroad]

Halo 1 Pistol: "I don't care how strong you are, your dated as hell." Covenant weapons: "Huh, so that's how they work." Promethean weapons: "Yup, very high tech"

[@LMR12321]

That boltshot one should really be the reload animation! Both of the idle ones for the boltshot are super cool!

[@salazzlethedazzling6089]

I agree!!

[@5hinydrums]

I love the little sounds they come with.

[@DandyDNA]

The Hydra and Boltshot idles made me smile :)

[@JayStation]

honestly they got the sounds on point in this game! ive never heard beter sound effects ever.

[@dabbingraccoons6416]

Jaystation

[@dabbingraccoons6416]

What

[@dabbingraccoons6416]

You play halo

[@pimpdoggo4776]

Don't you have a dead celebrity to talk to

[@Greenskull]

Neat!

[@paulsbackpack6057]

Hello!

[@scanman2416]

I loved the bolt shot

[@zacharyschwartz5037]

Hey

[@warmasterblade9481]

+silentkill9634 same

[@fakeblue8985]

it's you!!!

[@natebit7167]

I absolutely love the idle animations in this game. The feel they provide, and even the attention to detail such as your spartan taking their finger off the trigger are great.

[@haydensearle9008]

I think I know what the Spartan is thinking for most of these animations, "You know what I haven't seen in a while? The other side of this gun..." *turns gun over to see*

[@dejected107]

damn the forerunners were freakishly advance.

[@bearofthewest7644]

So advanced that the weapons are all separate pieces that can come off

[@jackjohn3511]

+miniofdoom01 the gaming master xD

[@sebastianramos2774]

It looks like he spent hours waiting for these idle things

[@Hectorlo]

2 and a half.

[@sebastianramos2774]

+Hectorlo I would not be able to do that I am not that patience

[@thecartographerrosas3486]

same

[@youssefsaad9277]

you are so underrated because there are other youtubers who do this showcase type of videos but your ones are the best and most detailed

[@Hectorlo]

Thanks, i'm glad you like them.

[@TooHardOnThePaint]

more detail went into the guns than writing the campaign

[@AlutaShade]

Of course the forerunner weapons look the best. It would have been hilarious for the needler if you see the soldier fiddle with the pink spikes, accidentally break one off, try to put it back in place, then give up and flick it off to the side haha

[@huntergman8338]

I now have the idea of having silly animations. One example could be when a boltshot is equipped and when it's apart, the spartan waves his had as if it was magic.

[@yourfavweeb]

4:06 I love this animation so much!

[@xOtherStone]

Um having fun with those guns there, Spartan?

[@FINALKUTKING33]

E

[@themoth1360]

Quinton Neal E

[@christopherquintero5985]

These animations make the game look allot more alive and spice things up

[@bencranmer4581]

Finally, we all found out what powers the grav hammer, a bass

[@zea4199]

I wish the Hydra had a small game of pong in the idle animation.

[@rustanlagrimas563]

the inside of the gravity hammer looks like speakers.

[@SpiritHawk7]

This 5 minute video compilation took them around 2 1/2 hours of just standing around to gain all the footage. Wow! (You can see the timer in the bottom right of the screen.)

[@funnylawyer52]

the boltshot was the best

[@Tactical_wulf5.56]

I have to admit.... the promethean weapons are actually really cool in concept and design.

[@phonyponybologna1070]

It would be pretty cool if a button press/button combo triggered these animations.

[@alphamonrx]

Ya like CS GO

[@meh855]

CS:GO Too

[@InsertSomethingStupid2002]

+NemTieLea like csgo

[@Slayer021800]

cs is better

[@fronk_alt]

NemTieLea It comes down to prefence

[@socialNrocker]

I love how with the covenant weapons he’s more playful/messing around with them cuz no one is really sure how they operate

[@ZakRas]

As much as I really... REALLY don't care about these, the first Boltshot one was fucking awesome.

[@SomaCruz666]

which ones the boltshot? The forerunner pistol?

[@briskymf8617]

that seems like something off of transformers

[@kidEmperors]

Agreed

[@nerodius58]

+Briley Ransom right?

[@nerodius58]

+Briley Ransom right?

[@TheAlessandroKid]

Would've been cool to see the HUD on the HYRDA change when the player pushes the buttons. Also Boltshot and Suppressor look cool, too.

[@Andy-rp9bp]

THAT BOLTSHOT THO.

[@The4j1123]

Nice little nod back to Halo CE. Not only was the gun and souf effects classic, but that second idle animation was the exact one from the original Halo.

[@Bane_questionmark]

Why would they make the boltshot animations so cool but then have variations on the "turn side to side" animation for all the other forerunner guns? Just seems like a waste, you have these weird guns that come apart in crazy ways in-game, but the best they could come up with for the scattershot is to have the sights lag behind the barrel a little? It's a cool little detail but there could have been something cooler.

[@xXxSM0EKWE3DxXx]

theres always something to bitch about isnt there, stop pissing your pants little boy and go outside or something. its a fucking idle animation

[@kaelebhendrix1067]

+36thchamber and there is always a fucking troll with no life in the comments

[@maximumgaming5o483]

the boltshot looks so cool!

[@justin_fajardo]

1:45 Spartan: Huh, wonder what this does? Beep, Boop, Beep, Boop

[@suli542]

Really cool to see they add so much detail to their weapons, goes to show how alive the gunplay can be. Great video !

[@sebbywebbydooda5073]

that was strangely satisfying

[@adrianchavez898]

The promethian weapons are my favorite, because of how they split apart

[@Thlormby]

Woah... I think I just experienced Halo ASMR

[@Hectorlo]

lol you're right.

[@JawaWarrior]

Seeing the inner workings of the grav hammer was really cool and probably my favorite.

[@Juice22Lemon]

oddly satisfying to watch this

[@alexthrone4624]

I came here completely for the updated models of the old halo weapons, (the plasma rifle thumbnail was #1) good vid man.

[@claudiot315]

Great vid. You just earned another sub :)

[@Hectorlo]

Thanks!

[@Shad0wFL4ME]

this was oddly satisfying to watch, always liked the Halo gun idle animations

[@Tofuey]

Why is there still no weapon inspect button

[@dc6758]

lack of buttons

[@jrr2117]

+owen west you mean the dpad?

[@Tofuey]

Jamie Rothwell yes

[@arieffuad31]

like csgo?

[@Rain-me8fd]

I appreciate that you spent 1 hour and 20 minutes idle in game to show this

[@RedLightningCreation]

most of them be like *looks down one side then the other* at least spin the pistols or juggle mags even

[@josephs3347]

It's more for showing you cool details about the guns than just being silly

[@RedLightningCreation]

Pvt. Leonard L. Church i did mean spin the pistols or juggle mags sarcastically

[@rezashirsavar7501]

+RedLightningTheLegend lol sum fuck

[@RedLightningCreation]

reza shirsavar speak english

[@mrphwibbs9766]

Juggle grenades

[@mastre007]

Very cool! Didn't realize just how many weapons there are in H5. Great job!

[@JoshEastham]

thought the fuelrod and needler could be cooler

[@ethanieldude1]

Was hoping he would poke himself with the needles on accident.

[@GGPlex_]

Every animation: examines the little details of the weapons. Needler: *BAP*

[@flaquito6296]

I was expecting him to poke one of the needles

[@Bobo-wp2bw]

I don't know why but I found it funny when he started pressing all the buttons on the hydra

[@jerryjarrells724]

DMR still looks weird without the front sight.

[@lohmeyerrichard70]

ikr

[@gnolly8222]

See I love extra little tid- bits like these where the idle animation is him/her playing with the gun (disassembling it, checking ammo, a slight scope adjustment or pushing buttons) makes it feel like real love was put into the weapons and world that built them.

[@purplehayabusa]

looking around for idle animations and i just happen to stumble onto /hg/. small world

[@Hectorlo]

I don't know what you're talking about.

[@idrinkmilk282]

wtf are you talking about

[@ExTess]

The animations for this game are spot on. I especially love the hydra's buttonpushing and boltshot's floating pieces.

[@ozoneooze]

The bolt shot is the shit!

[@somethingsomething6795]

Ozone Orange Why?

[@maximumgaming5o483]

I wish there where better animations for some of the guns. For example with the brute plasma rifle he could put his finger through the electric beam and get shocked and even take a tinny bit of actual health.Or for the scatter shot he pulls ones of those scope things away and it returns.

[@PsychoMoFoGaming]

button mashing on the hydra

[@exterminatus_now]

After having been on a bit of a break from Halo for a while now, it's small stuff like this of all things that makes me want to play again.

[@lo8ner]

are these animations apart of the HUD or are they actual animations visual from the outside?

[@adamewankeachie6091]

HUD but I did see a spartan do the hydra animation in warzone.

[@ARBiTER-cp6vv]

+Adam Ewan Keachie loll Ohh man

[@Krondelo]

Wow... you really have to just think about how far graphics have come. The details on these weapons and the graphics is top-notch!

[@FlamuriHp]

iThe weapons in Halo 5 are fucking amazing

[@AceRemington]

hearing each gear turn and gun cocking is so nice

[@LittleScientist2011]

anyone else thinking press f to inspect your weapon XD

[@ianblanchet5500]

Those are amazing ! They really show how much detail and precision this game has. GG 343 industries.

[@kieranthomson1102]

I use ps4 what the fuck am i doing here.

[@Hectorlo]

I don't care where you come from, you're welcome here.

[@Shotgunrain_AP]

same but I love those animations

[@Berry_Goosey]

The boltshot's idle animations are so fluid and awesome!

[@milesthe2tailedfox]

why does the magnum look like halo evolved?

[@Hectorlo]

Because it is the magnum from CE.

[@rs-zb1yq]

Hectorlo the first idle sound for the halo 1 pistol sounds like hit markers

[@mitchtheninjasock3680]

people usually just show the first animation. i'm glad you showed the second.

[@adamewankeachie6091]

They get bored after the first animation.

[@KRAZYSKULL1]

What's the armor?

[@Hectorlo]

Nightfall.

[@sabercentora1077]

The sounds some how relax and soothe me, it's great

[@demonhunter635]

Listen Hector, VIRGIL is my profile picture, not yours.

[@Tesseradical17]

Lots of people have the Superintendent icon, it's not like profile pics are copyrighted.

[@Hectorlo]

:o

[@Noodaroo]

Wrong

[@adamewankeachie6091]

wait three VIRGILS?

[@Ghost0fDawn]

I custom made my desktop the NM Superintendent, background and themes. Windows sounds have been replaced with VIRGIL's, git.

[@Armin2012]

The fore runners sure do like their moving parts
