[@elitetrooper119]

Hey Hidden Xperia. I have a question to ask. Hopefully you'll make a vid on it. It has to do with the flood. So the Prophets speech to Thel Vadaam in halo 2. Truth said " You were right to focus your intention on the flood" and in Halo CE the covenant seemed really intent on trying to seal the flood studying and cantainment facility. Almost as if they had encountered the flood before. My question is have they? Has the Covenant encountered the flood before Halo CE? I imagine they would know something about it from their extensive knowledge from the Forerunner tech and sites they've found and had since their founding. Right? Especially as it was the flood that chased the Forerunners to mass genocide on the Halo Rings. Would they not have spread their warnings and knowledge of the infection to whomever found their stuff?

[@DeathMachine1999]

Nomads cheap-n-nerdy! I can see where you’re coming from, but I have faith in 343 this time around. At first I hated Halo 4 and 5’s mechanics but I can see how they were trying to make it their own thing and I can respect their decisions. I’ve gone back and played both and the only true issue I hope they fix is the story telling. I enjoy reading the books and what else but I shouldn’t have to just to get the full game story. Such as the Didact’s true defeat. I also doubt micro transactions will be an issue! I think they’ve seen the flaws in their REQ system (at least I hope they have). So Holiday next year should be a great year for the fans! I’m sure Infinite will be up there with the other great Halo games.

[@shadow7988]

I know, right? SPV3 is delightfully challenging, and the numbers are part of that. It's a mod for a 20 year old game, I think it's a fair assumption that the people picking this up are pretty decent at Halo to begin with. Most folks would expect an experience tuned more to that.

[@Garthorium]

@@shadow7988 Keep in mind Hidden also described it as 'annoying'. Bungie had the original design down well, enemy count was numerous enough to halt you rampaging through the level but not overwhelming enough to completely grind you to a standstill. SPV3 made some very odd design choices which ultimately bring the mod down. Increasing enemy count two, sometimes even three fold in an area designed for a small skirmish isn't legitimate difficulty nor is it a good design choice. Some of these missions just took waaay too long to play through because of extended fights and extended areas that just felt unnecessary and empty padding. Case in point, the very first mission of the game is grossly overdone. I'm pretty sure we all appreciate having SPV3, but it doesn't mean we can't acknowledge and criticise the things it does poorly/not as well.

[@shadow7988]

@@Garthorium I have to disagree.I think the large bump in enemy count is a necessary consequence of the fact that you yourself are also FAR more powerful in SPV3 than you are in the original CE. You carry twice as many grenades as the original game(Half of which are ENORMOUSLY more destructive), and the guns you have access to were not at all designed for CE and it shows in how quickly you can dispatch enemies with them; Good examples being the underbarrel grenade launcher for the assault rifle, or a battle rifle in a halo game where the pistol was already broken as fuck. And we haven't even touched upon weapons that can clear out entire rooms and outposts in a couple of left clicks, like picked up hunter weapons. I've been playing mostly on Heroic and I've found a pretty good challenge level where I can definitely get myself killed through bad luck or dumb decisions, but there hasn't been a single engagement where I didn't think I could paste everyone involved. I think if you toned down the number of enemies, combat would end WAY too quickly with SPV3's arsenal involved.

[@Garthorium]

@@shadow7988 The problem is that Hidden isn't the only one that shares the same criticism. Granted, you don't have a problem but other people do. I'd have to say I tend to lean with your experiences too but I'm not dismissing the false difficulty bumps either. The lighting only contributes to poor design choices and falsely increases the difficulty. I felt the original game flowed excellently because it balanced steady progress with minor suppression. Fights felt a lot more tactical because of the pacing. SPV3 makes it feel like you're fighting an army at every corner and just grinds missions and interest to a halt where you're bottlenecked because of original map design not really being catered for increased a.i count. Bungie developed areas with intent, now you're doubling the enemy count, sometimes tripling it. It's not like the a.i are smarter, it's that it's just overwhelming odds in numbers. The fights just grow tedious and tiresome. The whole point of the first mission was to be a quick getaway from a ship being under heavy siege. Now it's stretched out to a whole hour only to coincide with the rerun in The Maw when that wasn't really the essence of it in the original. I do agree with you that Chief is ultimately more powerful but don't forget that the OP weapons are not guaranteed on every playthrough. You're not always going to use those guns every single time you go through the mission, and I'd argue that if that's the best/only way to make steady progress that in itself could be poor game design, which don't get me wrong, the original magnum certainly was. Late Night Gaming also does an interesting take on the mod which you may be interested in watching if you haven't already.

[@jaimefranco5393]

Some people can't handle true to lore gameplay. I just wish that you being the would have had more elites at your side throughout the level considering you have a fleet at your disposal

[@Dave_Chrome]

Imagine if this dark map got Flood fog like Sacred Icon... probably isn't feasible on this engine though

[@SR-388]

Well in the refined campaign mod for ce, it fixes the PC ports graphical issues like fog in 343 guilty spark, so the game does have fog similar to halo 2's flood missions

[@cursedhawkins1305]

@ The problem with this is that the flood outbreaks act in stages, at the time of this mission in this mod we have zero idea where chief was or at what stage the outbreak was in, was the flood still being relatively coordinated because of the proto gravemind on the truth and reconciliation or was the flood back to being at stage one because the proto gravemind was destroyed by chief.

[@GR8SCOTT_Productions]

As much as I love seeing anything about the Arbiter, the Sangheili, or even the Flood (especially in something as awesome as SPV3.2), I'm hoping you'll cover their take and reimagining of Lumoria, my most absolute favorite mod in all of Halo. Breakdowns on the story, the lore, the unique level designs and weapons. Hell, maybe you could do a comparison between the old and new versions, the positives and negatives of both, what you liked most and what aspects could be improved. Actually, better yet, do a livestream walkthrough of Lumoria. Gives me a reason to both see your reaction and listen to that glorious Halo music once again.

[@HiddenXperia]

Yeah I definitely plan on it, I played regular Lumoria a few years ago and enjoyed it overall, looking forward to seeing what the SPV3 team have done with it!

[@KevinKoolx]

I played this mission as well and loved how the team is able to create new experiences with Halo through SPV3! I totally agree with you on everything you mention in this video ESPECIALLY how dark things are. After talking with the team they wanted a more difficult Halo game but throwing too many enemies and making it super dark really creates artificial difficulty that gets in the way of the amazing gunplay.

God that moment when Usze tells Thel what chief did is so perfect! I can just imagine the seething rage in Thel as the ring begins to RIP itself apart with him on it, then the distain on his voice on the phantom at the end when they are leaving. This model has it quirks, and needs updating, but this mission was EXACTLY the kind of thing I needed as an AVID fan of sangheili and covenant lore in general. Major props to Lapidus, one of the most well written characters I've seen in a piece of fan work for the halo series, and also just one of the most upstanding brutes in the roster of names brutes.

What I would prefer to be the truth is that the current “Cortana” is the dominant fragment of halo 4’s Cortana that escaped into the domain, while the main fragment went dormant inside the didact’s ship, which was later discovered by the infinity and Halsey. But then again, this is just my opinion.

7:10 This is actually something that is quite common across modding projects in general, not just for Halo. A lot of modders seem to mistake the idea that "realism = better", and that is most often reflected I've found in how they handle night-time. Sure, it's "realistic" and even interesting in certain gameplay elements for there to be pitch darkness, but in my opinion that's only when it's reflected in the gameplay, as in the darkness is working with/against you in terms of stealth or not being able to see an enemy.

So something I have always been confused about is how the flood on instillation 05 died. The halo that gravemind lived on still exists and never was destroyed, right? Did the gravemind itself teleport on board high charity? Taking all the flood with him on the ship? Or did the flood on 05 get killed off by sentinels when the gravemind went to high charity. Or did the gravemind even leave 05 and the one on high charity was a second gravemind with a telepathic link to the one on 05, and now that high charity is gone, there is a lack of biomass that allows for communication with the original flood.

I feel like what would be really cool too is if there was a Jiralhanae mission that comes before this one, and you get to progressively see your team turn either into flood or insane, and there must have been a lot of brutes for how many brute forms there are. I also think it's kinda weird how you don't get to work with the brutes even briefly in the already existing mod. I've always wanted to for a while since at some point in Halo Elites and Brutes have fought together before.

[@Aetheretic]

The darkness is definitely a bit of a problem, but also it adds realism to it, I mean, you're on an island outside at night. No lights, just cold darkness. Gameplay wise I do see it as an issue though, with no light source, yeah, there are literally parts that are pitch black and you can't see anything until you're attacked usually by Flood. The amount of Flood on the other hand, difficult as it is, is actually pretty awesome. It really feels like how much flood there should be in a way. The only detail that feels a bit off with the amount of flood is if this was on a much more populated place. I don't really know where all the flood are really coming from here, it is an island on the ring... I don't really think there would be as many covenant and humans on the island for the flood to infect for there to be so many on this location. This would seem appropriate for a city or a heavily infested area where there is a lot of biomass for the flood have to infect. Overall though, it's pretty damn cool. Like you said, fighting the flood in a familiar area like this is really really cool. I always liked coming back to locations you were at previously with the flood now being there. Probably my favorite mission in Halo CE is Two Betrayals. I just love how you're backtracking through Assault on the Control Room but it's night and now the covenant are fighting the Flood. I just loved how the level feels so different, but it's in an area where you've been before earlier. Fuck I love Halo.

there's an Easter egg on the original Halo combat evolved on the early campaign on the cartographer on the PC version where you find flood blood on a particular wall in which you are not able to find on the Xbox version of Halo ce. Even though the player mets the flood in the middle to the end of the game.

[@Rickyog2009]

the darkness was definitely my biggest issue with the game. there was one mission where i had a warthog going through a natural made tunnel and couldnt see a thing and i probably died 5+ times because i couldnt see the narrow path turned or there was a jump that i needed to drive fast enough to clear but because it was so dark, i was driving slowly and kept falling to my death in those areas.

[@cameronsharif146]

It’s a cool idea to have the Arbiter in CE, but this mission doesn’t make sense lore wise because in Halo 2 it’s clear that the Arbiter never experienced the flood face-face when he asked Rtas what a particular smell was while hunting the Heretic Leader.

[@elijahvelasco8963]

Cameron Sharif Wasn’t Rtas on a mission at the time too?

[@hemandy94]

"That stench i've smelled it before" Actually you understand it backwards. It's because of Alpha Halo that he is familiar with the flood.

[@Razgriz_01]

"doesn't make sense lore wise" thats because this mission is pure fan-fiction lol

[@revolverocelot1380]

That's not really conclusive. We don't know what was going on in arbiters head during that cutscene. It would be easy to rationalize that rtas has better senses or that the arbiter also started to smell it a little later since rtas entered the chamber before him.

[@skettinbutter3635]

The prophet of truth even tells arby he was right to focus on the flood in the opening cutscene of halo 2 rather than pursue humanity

[@rosegraham5283]

Elite on Flood action Luc? Time to edit that part...

[@ASwordElite]

Ahh the treacherous adventures of the Arbiter. His abandoning Halo has surely left a sirr of uproar in the higherachy. But it matters not, for they are already dead. Murdered by the brutes.

[@Tezla_Insanity]

My Xbox is just my Halo and Gears machine, once MCC is on pc idk what'll happen to it. I'll still have to save it for Gears 4 since the pc port is unplayable :

[@recruitrush7605]

Love your video keep up the good work😎😎😎😎😎

[@g9900-n9c]

Im lovin these lore videos lol

[@JarJarStudiosPlus]

343 needs to add playable elites or some kind of elite campaign and have the flashlightsword mechanic, it's a really cool idea

[@redlinrangerstudio5331]

Fun Fact: My friend Crazygregfilms voice one of the elites in this spv3 mission

[@Tory-JJ]

I dont like that people complain about the darkness, played the entire game myself with no issues. You're not supposed to be able to see through darkness, its the fucking point. Use your ears, play intelligent. Idk it just bugs me people dont really get the design point.. The flood missions where its dark as fuck are SUPPOSED TO BE DARK AS FUCK. The flood are supposed to be like one of the worst ways to die and then undie again. Literally turning your cells into a living corpse than and see feel and hear everything going on while changing your thought patterns to that of a psycopathic killing machine with its only goal as spreading.

[@CEOofDontCareInc]

wow they are actually making a comeback

[@tweakedsplicer856]

It would actually be refreshing for halo to have a game from the view of the covenant
