Halo Flashpoint Roadmap and Wave 2 Announcements - The Orbital Drop

[@ForgingFlashpoint]

Countdown to launch!!! Lets goooo!

[@Xand1Cast]

Hype!

[@thundergoat421_6]

I really hope the Covenant don't get pushed aside...Why is the Banished the face of the "aliens" of Halo now? We all grew up with Covenant.

[@Xand1Cast]

Agree. Hope they do some covenant but they may be pushing the newer stuff. Even if they are “banished” I’m still treating them like covenant lol

[@i_Lupercalia_i]

​@@Xand1Cast I'm not sure specifically on Covenant but on the 4 minute reveal video 8 months ago I made a comment that they replied to. I mentioned that I'd love to see hunters and jackals alongside how a Flood/Infected game type would be cool -and an ai PvE system as well They actually replied to my comment and said that 'Elites were just the start' and that this is a new game system instead of a boxed game, then remarking they have many cool things lined up that they want to do. So at the very least we'll be getting more alien races I'm sure. Seeing Master Chief is in there I'm expecting Arbiter soon, possibly Escharum or Atriox as well.

[@Xand1Cast]

Hopefully they will have enough sales to be comfortable showing more things coming down the road

[@LordEmpyreal]

It's probably more of a timeline thing. The Covenant more or less doesn't exist anymore since the last remnants were defeated in Halo 5. The Banished aesthetic only really applies to vehicles in Infinite though, and they've already brought back the Plasma Rifle despite it not being in the game. So legacy stuff is definitely on the table, and the Covenant aesthetic will come through with most alien units. I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing ODSTs, Spartan Lasers, and eventually playmats sets based on formerly Covenant locations.

[@metascrub285]

Covenant and banished are pretty much the same thing when it comes to assetics. The elites look exactly the same.

[@DefectiveDice]

Halo Hype!! Cool video, looking forward to more!

[@Xand1Cast]

Definitely excited to make more! Can’t wait until next month!

[@drich.5984]

NICE. Love Cortana

[@Xand1Cast]

The best!

[@thediminutivesoldier]

great video guys

[@Xand1Cast]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@superheracross89]

I want more legends characters like arbiter both ripa from wars and both versions of thel

[@Xand1Cast]

Would love to see the Arbiter! Kind of thinking we might get Atriox since they are doing banished in 2025. Hopefully alot to come!

[@CorrinQuest]

If they scale up I’d love to see a Revenant kit

[@Xand1Cast]

Definitely want to see all the vehicles at some point!

[@CorrinQuest]

@ True! Imagine a Scarab…

[@johnmartin7705]

It’s a shame Master Chief is behind a paywall.

[@Xand1Cast]

Yeah, if you weren’t lucky enough to get an early order it’s kind of rough. Randy had to get the paint kit to get MC :(

[@APremiumDegenerate]

It’s a shame the armors are based on infinite. Should’ve at least come with a sprue of helmets to choose from

[@davidnorris8724]

75 bucks for a paper play field. 8 minis with warped bases. Some dice and cards🤦🏼‍♂️ Overpriced 😬 Recon should have at least came with the double sided board. And rules reference on back of play mat🤷🏼‍♂️ I have $60 board games with more value in them💯

[@Xand1Cast]

I think the terrain, while being cardboard/cardstock, does help the value proposition some, but I think you have some valid points for sure. Definitely agree the carboard map should have also come in Recon with the paper mat like it does in Spartan. Would have been cool for it to the fold down into a quick reference after you use it for the tutorial game.

On what planet would i buy paint from mantic😂😂

[@Xand1Cast]

They are army painter paints, but to each his own
