Halo MCC Halo 3 Resurrection Revamp 2.0 Campaign Overhaul(Crows Nest)

[@dawgwiddaglasses]

I like what this mod is trying to accomplish, but I feel it’d be far better executed if more thought were put into the models used/enemies spawned. The current execution is pretty chaotic visually and gameplay-wise.

[@jarlbalgruuf7701]

Yeah, it’s just random enemies thrown at you. makes the covenant look like they have no ranks, squads or unit cohesion. it’s weird seeing one or two drones fighting alongside 2 skirmishes 2 brutes and an elite in a corridor

[@rainstriderstreamflower5645]

I also think they could've done a better job with Keyes' facial expressions

[@rainstriderstreamflower5645]

But I do like the addition of allied Elites and Grunts.

[@Litterbugtaylor]

Miranda had a stroke

[@blueshit199]

most if not all of these campaign overhaul mods feel like this, but I think Halo MCC modding scene is in its infancy so that explains it, seems like every game that supports mods has to go through that phase when people are just trying out things

[@awsomebot1]

that miranda keyes is nightmare fuel

[@agentmaryland1239]

Honestly having some ex-Covenant species lingering around the base is probably what a lot of us expected when booting up Halo 3 for the first time. If you think about it, the Sangheili turning on the rest of the Covenant was a *huge* moment and it feels like an after thought in Halo 3. We don't even see our Elite allies until the Flood show up, and even then we get a few small squads of Elites that basically die almost immediately if you're playing on anything higher than Normal. Rtas is a fixture in the sky otherwise. And the Covenant seem far too organized in both attire and line up for being on their last stand as they make a mad dash for the Ark. Surely some Grunts and Hunters sided with the Elites, after all, they were with the Elites during the initial turning point. I didn't expect the Drones or Jackals to side with the Elites given the Jackals will go where the treasure is best and the Drones are too aggressive and follow the Hive mind too closely.

[@Armageist]

Bingo

[@BungieStudios]

It's for gameplay testing reasons. If you watch the vidoc, the animation department had plans for other covenant species to be at war with the Brutes. However, having grunt allies and fighting grunt enemies would be too confusing for players. Maybe not you, but other people. KISS = Keep It Simple, Stupid 19:32

[@windrider2190]

@@BungieStudios how hard is it to include ally grunts in cutscenes, or just a simple color change to show they’re allies? Or maybe look at your crosshair color? I understand their reasons for not including allied grunts or other aliens, but it seems to me they had testers who just couldn’t tell what was an ally and what wasn’t.

[@izayael]

Some jackals believed in the great beyond most them than loaded gold shields maybe upon learning the truth from the elites they would join the cause

[@lordofthegeckos533]

I do like that you added more Elites. I always thought it was weird that the Arbiter came to Earth alone. It would be like if the POTUS went to help out the UK in a war by himself. Nice touch.

[@sErgEantaEgis12]

Lorewise the bulk of the Arbiter's faction of Elites are busy with a quarantine/glassing of Delta Halo/High Charity to make sure the Flood doesn't escape. IIRC the Shadow of Intent and the small fleet that came with it and joined the fight to the Ark was pursuing the Flood-controlled ship that broke through quarantine (the rest of the fleet was still in Delta Halo's system). That being said I always found it cringe that there weren't a small contingent of Elites in the first 4 missions, as if the Arbiter just showed up alone.

[@agentmaryland1239]

Given that Miranda and Johnson, as well as the Arbiter are on Earth; that alone is evidence that Arbiter did not come alone. They only went out with the In Amber Clad, which was on High Charity after it crashed. So Rtas' small fleet had to have brought them back, there's no way they would relocate one Frigate to go out and get them with the fight going on at Earth. And we certainly can not be told to believe that Arbiter took Miranda and Johnson in a small ship to come back to Earth alone. Honestly with the alliance forged between the Elites and Humans, it would certainly make sense that a few Elites are patrolling the ruined corridors of the base of operations. A coin toss if any Honor Guards would be stationed at the War Room of the operation, but I could see it. You'd be more likely to see Minors and Majors patrolling the halls while the Ultra class Elites might hang around areas of importance worth guarding. Of course, now that I think about it, the Brutes would have a harder time taking the Op Center if there were any Honor Guards around lol.

[@Armageist]

@@sErgEantaEgis12 4-player Co-op helps with this, with Usze and N'tho. At least Bungie gave us an in-game canon alliance team.

[@blueshit199]

I still don't know how they got from Delta Halo to Earth without the Shadow of Intent

[@alexhill4151]

How did you open up areas that were previously locked?

[@tucastigadorinsaciable692]

I was expecting something like this the first time I played Halo 3 on 2007. Having Covies as allies like in the end of Halo 2, not only elites but grunts and hunters too. It was disappointing :/ Still was a great campaign

[@nicolae-alexandruluca7853]

It was mostly cause of friendly and foe situations, ruby made such a mod with allied elites (he made the wraith banshee and ghosts green for allied units and we as players still managed to kill some allied elites, even Xperia said it that now he understands why bungie didn't go with the elites backing you up idea

[@thegeckler4719]

3:27 The Halo 3 ODST Gang! With the Rookie standing in the corner as well😂

[@cursedhawkins1305]

6:02 An Elite with a flamethrower, now that's more terrifying than a Zealot with an energy sword and active camo.

[@windrider2190]

Reminds me of going through Cortana for the first time. High Charity is self destructing, Flood are scurrying everywhere, trying to stop Chief from escaping. Next thing you know, Cortana picks up a friendly IFF tag and who is it? The Arbiter, wielding a freaking human flamethrower, cutting a path for him and Chief to escape on the downed pelican near the beginning of the level. Very memorable moment for me lol

[@walkings7ick58]

The phantom blowing up is what broke the script for the pelican in the hanger fight

[@Armageist]

Weren't they destructable in vanilla? I know they're obviously in other levels but I could swear you could blow them up with the gun emplacements here, too.

[@walkings7ick58]

@@Armageist the same thing will happen with out mods if you some how destroy a phantom in the hanger fight it will soft lock the game

[@primusvsunicron1]

@@Armageist it soft locked because of the debris

[@alwaysangron2662]

I like the idea of this mod. I can imagine that Halo 3 is the covenant and UNSC essentially throwing everything they have left at each other. That's why you see "heretic" covenant. Literally covenant wearing mining gear conscripted to fight.

[@kooper7624]

Adding buck and his team is 1 hell of an idea

[@justanothergamer6865]

I think replacing the Halo 3 Marines with Halo Reach Marines/Army Troopers would be cool, never understood why the Marines were the only ground forces on earth. H2A Marines would also look dope.

[@Jasondurgen]

U did a really great job of rushing through a mission everybody knows showing little of what is new. Thanks

[@qlHenrylp]

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

[@darkboltex6801]

lol he favorited it

[@krautoppenheim5988]

Awesome work, still prefer to have the Brutes as the main leading force of the Covenant, having some Elites working with them seem off, it's better to change the Brute's combat behavior, like increase their chance of berserking and strong hp,. Overall love this.

[@justinisaacs9617]

Miranda looks derpy. And most of the sangheili had to regroup after the delta halo and the Schism.

[@mrstabtoxic]

This looks like a amazing idea. It just needs some touching up and it is perfect for the halo lore fanboys for the most part.

[@scientificfeline3955]

Fix up the models to have the marines matching uniform, remove Alpha 9, make Johnson and the Arbiter less shiny, remove all the chaotic-ness, and I think it's good.

[@Nomad958]

No keep alpha 9

[@olivierblanchard5179]

Miranda's face is just... ughhhhhh. Why? Just why? This is really cool though. Love the additions to more friendly Covenant forces. Wish I could play this on Xbox.

[@Armageist]

This is the greatest thing ever. What Halo 3's forces should've looked like, except for Miranda's H2A 50yo face model. Woof. I can understand why you did it though. Connecting it with H2A. Just a shame 343 did her dirty like that, lol.

[@tpd1864blake]

Miranda is uncanny. Also I feel like this mod does a poor job with restraining itself in terms of enemy placements. Some enemies are in areas that don’t make sense

i rather call these Banished covenant and new enemies and mechanics they can do, yet some elites hard hard to ID what rank are they cus banished ultras looks very similar colours but i like how some elites have new mechanics like that field marshal zealot and general zealot can duel wierd swords and plasma rifles as a call back to CE zealots (plasma rifle zealots are the only ones that can still shoot you regardless of overheating) but amazing tho

[@ImaginArt24]

Keyes looks scary

[@TheRoseReaper]

I'm not gonna lie, I'd rather play with this than vanilla Halo 3. Is it jank? Yeah but at least there is more than just the elites trying to assist you in battle. You cannot convince me that it wasn't JUST the elites that sided with the UNSC towards the end of the trilogy like the hunters, grunts (willingly or not is up in the air), jackals and hell I'm sure there are some BRUTES that don't agree with the Prophet of Truth at this point that aren't apart of the Banished that'd love to kick Truth's ass for suspiciously kicking out the elites after failing to stop Master Chief from killing the Prophet on Delta Halo (I think that's the one in Halo 2, details are a little fuzzy). Halo 3 whether people want to admit it or not is a mess from the campaign to the multiplayer.

[@nagger8216]

So you'd rather play something that's an even bigger mess? That makes sense

[@TheRoseReaper]

@@nagger8216 tbh no, but this is better than nothing. This seems a bit more lore accurate in my eyes. The ranking systems for the covenent still have the same problems in base halo 3, but a little bit of modifying the files should be just fine. I think Ruby's Rebalanced for Halo 3 might have had something, but it's been too long since I've played it.

[@nagger8216]

@@TheRoseReaper Bro, how is fighting Elites in Halo 3 more lore accurate? Especially when there's the Heretic Elites from Halo 2 on both sides? I agree that it's weird that most Brutes have the same blue color despite their different ranks, but I just figured that the different races of the Covenant each have their own different colors depending on their ranks. Otherwise why would Minor Grunts be orange instead of blue, like the Elite Minors? This mod is just a hodgepodge of random shit blended together, if anything it's a million times worse than vanilla Halo 3. I'm not even going to bother going into all the other different assets from the other games that are randomly thrown in there without any thought to being consistent. Yeah it might be fun to play, which should be the main goal in any video game, I'll give it that, but arguing it's somehow more lore accurate makes zero sense on infinite levels. I also disagree that Brutes being with the Elites makes any sense, because at the end of the day it was basically a race war between the two main military species of the Covenant. At no point in Halo 2 did we see any Brutes sympathetic to the Elites betrayal, throwing them in with the Elites doesn't make any sense whatsoever

[@Ghost996]

Halo 3 really wasn't a mess, what are you on about? Halo 3 is very clean and clear, a perfect game. From campaign (Despite being a bit short) to the multiplayer, Halo 3's multiplayer being the biggest of them all. The books literally cover the small details and anything missing, but also not being important. Just extended lore for fans. Unlike what 343 did with Halo 4, where they killed off the Didact in a book

[@tumorenito2136]

[@Poindexter4330]

I like how this mod wants to be a good overhaul and revamp but i have some critiques about it. The Combat: The combat is too clustered and overwhelming, as there are way too many enemies and enemy types, like why have this many enemies in one place if one grenade could take out most of them, Wasting that combat encounter and having the elites fight along side the brutes again doesnt make sense, and its gonna confuse the player into hesitating shooting an friendly elite, even then the halo 3 elites perform horribly against the player(try the odst firefight with elites) and having two models of brute is kinda strange as they play the same and like what's the point of having two brutes that look different if they don't act different, having the skirmishers in a such close quarters level isn't a good idea, as the skirmisher plays from the distant and its more agile than the other enemies as they jump, run and hide more faster and their ai is made for more open environments The weapons: where do i even begin, There's way too many variants of one thing like the enemies, LIke theres the Battle rifle a precision weapon and it has a counterpart on the covenant, the covenant carbine were it also a precision weapon, but this mod adds four more weapons that do the same thing, LIke theres the dmr, the Smg and BR mix weapon, spiker carbine and the needle rifle. like the player isnt gonna use all of them as they probably gonna have a rocket launcher in the secondary. this many choices overwhelm the player which sours the experience, and if your gonna add variants, add more vehicle variants like the gungoose and warthog variants

@@ZombieMaster428 oh lol my bad for being so salty. I just don’t like mod packs that come with bundles of stuff. Like on paper it sounds cool and stuff to have everything in one halo game but I think people should be able to selectively pick and choose what they want. Just like left 4 dead 2 mods. You gotta mod each and every thing one by one. Takes a lot of time but when you finish. You literally have the perfect game for yourself. Not a single thing you should personally change.

I wish the Halo 2 anniversary normal visor texture for this mod didn't have hexagons in them because the Halo 2 anniversary Master Chief visor did not have hexagons in it. It kind of breaks the cannon a little bit and immersion for me and I'm sure other people. If there's a way for you to remove it and remove all halo 4 weapons because it breaks canon and it doesn't make any sense so if you would make it look like the Halo 3 assault rifle that would be great.
