The Spartans are cool, but they are like superheroes, you cant really relate with them. They are super soldiers, something none of us can understand, but ODST's are normal people. Well, bad-ass normal people. Like the marines, we need to see ODST's more in game, and give them a part in the story. Dont just use them as a set piece.

I wish there was more of a focus on the so to say more "faceless" of the ranks. Regular troopers and Marines, the game centered is playing as one of those guys trying to get things done and survive the covenant onslaught. Maybe even a game centered as playing an officer in charge of those guys trying to follow the mission and make it out alive with as many as them as possible, commanding them around into positions or giving them tasks pertaining to the mission that will keep the platoon as a whole secure but still keeping on track. Of course there has to be story arches and hints of inexperienced or set in there ways commanders screwing things up, dashes of disparity, and eventual hail Mary efforts like a warthog run. Maybe even a few missions where you have to go to objective after objective just sitting around until command figures out where you should actually be positioned, or to be more fun a generator defense type thing where you to protect assets from being destroyed or roads from being crossed. This being set in New Mombasa or Reach.

@@Wasattsi The UNSC mostly militarized their supply chains in the later stages of the war. Money was no object if the alternative was humanity's extinction. Besides, most of the USNC's gear was sturdy enough to serve as a melee weapon in extreme circumstances. The supply drop pods provide *just enough* protection to stop the gear inside from melting from the heat of atmospheric entry and survive the impact with the ground.

[@TactWendigo]

When I first heard about ODST way back when, I was really hoping for a more dark/gritty look at the human covenant war across multiple battlefields, multiple drops, etc. Maybe more squad based, not quite Rainbow Six Vegas 2 but close. I got so excited about this thought that I somehow got disappointed this completely fictional game didn't exist. Halo ODST is an amazing game, don't get me wrong it's my favorite of the games so far, but I would love a game that did go back to the original conflict and look at more of the conflict on human worlds.

If one Squad can do almost as much as Chief can imagine how much damage a Battalion of ODSTs can do

[@thorshammer7883]

Since there's 18 classes of Forerunner combat armor and the standard Forerunner troops weared Class-12 combat skins how strong do you think the Forerunner soldier was since MJOLNIR is considered Class-2 and it can take a beaten and even survive falling into the atmosphere I bet it would be stronger then any Space Marine exoskeleton would be. Imagine how strong the Flood combat forms were in order to penetrate that combat skin.

[@MadamLava094]

My theory is that the differences in durability between classes reduces with rising class, due to diminishing returns on materials research or the like.

[@nanomachinesson2513]

That doesn't necessarily mean that higher number classes were just better than lower number classes. It could easily be the case that different classes were intended for use in different operations(maybe class 4 was for aquatic and class 16 was for EVA activities for example)

[@thorshammer7883]

@@nanomachinesson2513 But 343 Guilty Sparks specifically said that MJOLNIR armor is not a good suit to wear against the Flood and he compared it to Class-2 and keep in mind he was confident that his sentinels would be able to take Chief down and he also recommended that Chief should wear Class-12 so I'm confident the higher the class the stronger and more powerful the armor.

[@SlimTheydy]

@@thorshammer7883 that could still be seen as each class refers to different types, say if type 12 was designed for biological/chemical warfare with multiple countermeasures against foreign bodies, even the ability to internally seal and cauterise infected areas, otherwise the line would make forerunners so insanely powerful that the existence of Prometheans would make no sense given how weak they are physically compared to forerunner grunts in vastly superior armour.

@@SlimTheydy Prometheans were made by 343i duh. But they are 100,000 years old, so maybe they degraded horribly, but that still doesn't explain how weak they are.

[@roundbrick4890]

Sooooo... your spartan 4s might want armours that reflect the ones that said members of the program might have worn pre augmentation ( ODSTs before Spartans) so maybe making armor reminiscent of it would be a good idea

[@dr.catherineelizabethhalse1820]

@@roundbrick4890 Uhh sure. But yeah I want normal ODSTs themselves have at least some kind of a shield generator. It could be weaker than the one Spartans but still save them from a couple hits that normally would be leathal. Alternatively give them armors with SPI tech.

[@tarziq]

I'm thinking of a ODST Specialist that carries an armored backpack shield generator that powers wirelessly to up to a maximum of 5 ODST's shields including the wearer, so the wearer can drop it to move a bit freely and the others don't have to lug around heavy hardware. Disadvantage is that it has to be carried around and the shield's power source is divided among squad members, but as more of the squad falls the shield's power source gets better since it only needs to focus on one trooper. TLDR: The shield projectors are housed on the standard ODST BDU while the powersource is carried on the backpack that wirelessly powers the projectors.

[@roundbrick4890]

@@dr.catherineelizabethhalse1820 probably a lower yield version of the spartan power supply system- it would only need to support an energy shield and and the emitters, in turn, less armor plating would be needed and would cut down on costs, although only removing part of it to not fully remove it, perhaps only remove 20% or so

[@fumewahfter]

If you think about it, Spartans are really overengineered. The sheild is one of their most useful tech assets. The physical and reaction time augmentations are incredible. But if more regular infantry had those shields you might not even need to spend so much money on the Spartan program and armor.

[@aidenlashbrook6089]

ODSTs are my favorite super soldiers in all of sci-fi. They might not be as strong or as smart as Space Marines or Spartans, but something about them feels more tactical. Tactical Super soldiers just sounds amazing to me.

[@Ilyas-ty6cy]

They are elite soldier but not super soldier.

[@techstuff9198]

Elite, not super. They aren't modified, unless injured.

[@MUJUNKY]

Semi-powered armor is doable today, it wouldn't really add much in the way of actual strength to the wearer, however several hydraulic/pneumatic exo-skeleton prototypes function on the concept of conserving as much kinetic energy as possible, redirecting it back into the frame, IE, it compresses as a soldier bends their knee, and then springs back up as they push off, attempting to gain that energy not from the soldier exerting extra force, but from the weight of the soldier coming down in the first place. Pairing that with a load bearing frame, energy expenditure from a soldier can be cut by huge margins. if even a twenty percent reduction in energy use can be gained from the frame, two things can be done, either increasing armor coverage/carrying more ammo and supplies, or soldiers can march longer, run farther, fight longer before tiring out. this is on top of avoiding many of the stress injuries soldiers develop from lugging a hundred pounds of gear around as the frame is what is actually supporting most of the weight. What I really want to see though is how the fucking bolt carrier group works in a halo AR, and the magazine of an MA5B. 60 rounds of 7.62x51 in what looks like an FAL magazine(20 rounds) with less than three inches of space for the bolt, recoil buffer, and ejector? BULLSHIT! ITS SPACE MAGIC! There isn't even a reasonable way to go with an AEK/AK107 balancing system.

[@Bmuenks31]

Also how heavy the thing is fully loaded 60 rounds of 308 308 weighs 150 to 180 grains

[@MUJUNKY]

@@Bmuenks31 the MA5B might be space magic materials to make a really light rifle, but then you end up with recoil out the ass. Honestly I would not be surprised if the MA5B is purposefully heavy, to reduce jitter and recoil, because the Spartans are just insanely strong with olympian endurance. I'd wager a fully loaded MA5B weighs between 13-16lb.

[@nosidenoside2458]

Maybe they use caseless? Or idk they might spray casings out when you fire, it's been a bit since I've played halo

[@thorshammer7883]

Does the Flood bulid themselves their own ships and weapons? Like during the Forerunner-Flood war they must have captured millions of weapon factories and shipyards so I can imagine they using them to manufacture to bulid up their forces and make them stronger so that maybe why they were able to overwhelm the Forerunners so quickly using their manufacturing facilities against the Forerunners and they would constantly produce more weapons and ships to continue the war since they would be smart enough to understand the importance of resources during total war and how useful they would be to the Flood who wouldn't need to rest or sleep unlike the Forerunners so they would have a constant supply of weapons and ships to send on the front lines.

[@Installation00]

That is a very interesting point. The flood have the collective knowledge of all the beings they have infected. Why have they never considered using that knowledge to build?

[@thorshammer7883]

@@Installation00 That maybe the reason why they were so close to winning the Forerunner-Flood war though the Forerunners fought bravely using every tactic and strategy they could make even destroying star systems it still wasn't enough. And if the Flood have infected entire dyson spheres and large megastructures imagine what they could do with such facilities that have weapon, armor, and ship manufacturing equipment it would be like a gold mine for winning wars. And the Forerunners had destroyed entire star systems trying to weaken the Flood numbers and still wasn't enough. So it's clear that during the 300 year long war that the Flood were able to sustain their numbers somehow. Likely through manufacturing weapons and ships constantly. And the Forerunners had over 3 million systems so they definitely have tons of supplies.

[@Kaiber_Phoenix]

I think for the most part they infected the crews of the ships and vehicles obtain the knowledge to operate them and then proceed to infect more probably in a similar fashion to why they do in halo wars 2 once they infected the personal operating the vehicle they end up encasing them with bio matter to keep the body in place to operate it and to provide further protection and possibly as another means to transport the bio matter to further help the spread. Then again in every halo we've seen this far with the exception of combat evolved there was a grave mind and the flood operated the vehicles as normal users would were as halo wars 2 had a proto grave mind which probably wanted to increase the survival odds of its combat forms in vehicles as the knowledge may have been usable whilst the operator whas the one in control either way that would be a cool video

[@thorshammer7883]

@@Kaiber_Phoenix I'm talking about if they capture a factory or manufacturing facility for weapons and materials.

[@Kaiber_Phoenix]

@@thorshammer7883 hmm in that case they'd definitely have the means and capability to so I wouldn't see why not I guess it's depends on how quick and successful there spreading and how many ships they were able to commandeer and I'd imagine they have landed on worlds where there were no ships in the current time I could see them do it as no everything is automated unlike when the forerunners were around

As a fallow halo lore nerd this is very well done great work, I may have missed it but u may have forgotten that many variations of the helmet especially the up variations for Spartans can support both smart and dumb a.i, the other thing is the soldiers wearing the suit are often basically augmented, sergeant Johnson was a ODST.

[@starhammer5247]

@@stonegrind They have some basic augments, nothing as extensive as Johnson's or Chief's, but good enough to allow them to survive drops from orbit and high ledges alongside basic health improvements like a better digestive system, immune system, slightly stronger bones or something similar to that. It's not extensive, nor does it really make them too much more effective. It's just a slight improvement.

[@CrimsonPisces113]

[@John2r1]

I got a video Ideal for you . It stated that "Since the dawn of widespread spaceflight, humans have sought to use biochemical, surgical and cybernetic means to augment their bodies. While civilian applications for such technologies do exist, their obvious military advantages quickly saw them harnessed for the purposes of warfare. Basic performance-enhancing technologies have been commonplace among human militaries for centuries." So the question is exactly what kind of augmentations do the Marines and ODST's have in halo . Since the lore doesn't exactly state it. Basically what would it take for a human to be capable of fighting the Covenant without being instantly killed ? If humanity has been doing this since at lest the 22nd century their troops would obviously be augmented slightly.

Love coming back to this video, showing the odst armor more complex than people realized. Shame odst didn't have their own semi-power armor. I doubt they would get full power armor but imagine if odsts had something somewhat similar to the spi-armor but more gear towards odsts and doesnt cost as much as mjonir armor. The one thing i love about this armor as it sounds realistic and something out current technology probably could make but most likely be tad expensive. But from what i know alot of the mechanics and materials of the odst suit do sound very realistic and a possibility what troops could wear at some point.

Bro the odst part but what’s that absolute banger of a song at the end fits it so well

[@arthureaterofworlds5176]

I heard SPI armor could survive a few more blasts from plasma before being destroyed more than regular marine armor, so why didn't the UNSC make any for the marines since unaugmented soldiers could wear it and probably has a more survivable chance against covenant foot soldiers plasma rounds? Also it was mass produced by the UNSC.

[@Installation00]

Cost. On a scale of amplitude. Spartan-IIIs, though cheap compared to the Spartan-IIs, were still very, very expensive to train, augment, equip and field. SPI armor was, again, developed on a budget, but a budget much higher than would otherwise be allocated to a normal soldier. So while it does make sense, it will have been cost prohibitive.

[@barrybend7189]

The infinity contingent should at least use SPI armor as its can manufacture Spartan grade armors.

[@arthureaterofworlds5176]

This also includes post war where they make more Spartans, where the marines get this horrible Killzone nerf body armor which has the same amount of damage intake as the original marine armor!

[@arthureaterofworlds5176]

Also can you make a expansion and theory on the new armor for the marines?

[@tristanbackup2536]

I wonder if the ODST armour has stealth technology as well, making it harder to be seen by radar & other sensor technologies.

[@taylorkitchens578]

You do my favorite fictional universe justice, 00. Keep up the good work.

[@slipstreamvash]

I'd love to learn more about Capt. Lasky's equipment he wears, reminds me of the RIG from DeadSpace

[@midgetydeath]

The ODSTs should have been the ones to receive the Spartan-IV augmentations. And give them a battery powered version of MJOLNIR. Like SPI armor but with a backpack-sized version of the battery and headhunter energy shields and active camo. Just imagine invisible ODSTs with energy shields, MJOLNIR, VISR, and Spartan-IV augmentations all coming to kill you.

What a pity that I didn't get the notification of this particular video being that it was uploaded on my birthday. Either way I'm glad I finally came across it.

[@JoelHernandez-ws3hv]

For further episodes I suggest tha MD for 343 Guilty spark or for the banshee, even though every video you produce is great

[@graywolfatlas]

epic man, as always

[@Installation00]

Thanks man. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ApolloMaxOrd]

Not sure if this is worth it for you! But a detailed break down of the Recon armor would be awesome!

[@nicholasleon7819]

idk what it is about it but that helmet is PEAK sci fi design, so sexy, especially the halo 3 version.

[@wingnut1917]

Great video

[@brycevo]

Ladies! We are Green and very, very mean! Prepare for Drop!

[@o_manam]

These videos add an extra layer the the games that make them a little bit more fun, understanding the equipment you're using gives it a little bit more immersion that you can think about when you're making your way through New Mombassa. I'll always wish for a "playable novel" sort of game, just a regular mission during the HC war. The novels have very different stories from the games.

[@alexandrecredidiooliveira7176]

Quick question you did an vid about UNSC ships classes and singular ships like In Amber Clad or Pillar of Auntum?

[@rapidlyzz]

If you're wondering the song in the first seconds of the video is : We're The Desperate Measures

[@tbower22]

Watching this at 2:30 in the morning and barely understanding about 10% of this is why my sleep schedule is fucked

[@vtwhitevan7211]

I think the ODST are more badass then the spartan-iv granted that most of the ODST became spartan-iv. But not having that energy shield and still doing some very dangerous mission without disobey

[@Comeasyouare77]

Odsts and Spartan 3 headhunters are my favorite soldiers I'm halo. If they made another odst game or a headhunters game (that would be so cool), I would overload with excitement

[@ethanwagner6418]

I never would have guessed the ODST armor to be articulated in any way. That's really cool.

[@JohnDoe-zq1ho]

How else would they move? You do know what articulated means, right? It just means separated into different sections by joints.

[@SmileyTheMadman]

I love your videos and I love highly in depth sciences of every component of equipment of the UNSC. I got you on notifications! I hope you quickly get to 100K Subs! Thank you for your videos! I may not have funds but all I can give is a thanks for making these very entertainingly interesting videos and a compliment! Keep the work up! Feet First In Hell!

[@Installation00]

Every comment, like and view keeps me driven and motivated to keep doing this. So thank you for your support!

[@Deadberg477]

I have been waiting for this video because of the old reach days of the old ODST's for clans

[@Kaus5221]

I need to know what the roof is made of that the ODST drop-pod lands on. Buck should have started in that store picking our snacks.

[@alluringming]

I think the odst armor was rather cool looking when first introduced, i still think the odst battle armor should been a power armor like mjonir and spi armor but specifically created for the odst. They already got alot of components and upgrades to their armor during covenant war from mjonir armor. Something like the semi-power infiltration armor would been logical to the odst who were more numerous than odst. I wonder what the odst power armor would be like if they were issued one.

[@stickmanjr.2885]

Thank you for the vid, could I get a source on the hydraulic rams?

[@Soloong_Gaybowzer]

"The ODST suit can be hermetically sealed" he says while playing video of an ODST wearing fingerless gloves.

[@deece1482]

CAN be. Not IS.

[@joeyvitale24]

You’re one of the best things to happen to the halo community in a long time! I’d absolutely love to see a most detailed on the UNSC Air Force if you find time for the Spartan pilots in the room!! Lol
