The Vietnam War Except It's Halo | Arma 3

[@RubixRaptor]

This ended up being way more fun than we expected lol. Thanks to Tails for going into an isolation chamber and switching out all the halo assets to make this mission. We’ll probably make him do another sci-fi universe next c:

Spartans were created to fight innies not covvies. So innies being an incredible threat to regulars is lore accurate.

The Halo ops are my favorite by a mile, maybe it's because Halo is one of my favorite game series ever, maybe it's the uniquely insane energy these ops have. All I know is I love them a lot.

I love Ignis, you're all so willing to be cooperative with one another even during the worst of plans. It reminds me of a group of ants trying to form a living bridge upwards, towards some sort of sap or fruit, only to topple over one another continuously until a bird spots the giant mass of food and picks them off. It's truly the greatest of bonds, the kind that even deteriorating brain cells can't get in the way of

[@Shotout424]

Quick insight into the 5B sounds. Our sound devs were able to locate the exact stock sound that the Halo: CE MA5B used. No, it’s not a rip, we located the exact file and where it came from, so it sounds like the AR from CE. Though, A3 does sounds weird and it doesn’t exactly sound like CE but it’s as close as we could get atm

I needed a good laugh, and you guys in Ignis are all gloriously unhinged and never fail to put a smile on my face. Cheers man. Oh man, this is such a fun video to watch. Halo has some mild 'Nam vibes already, but this not only seems natural but also incredibly fun. Vietnamese Innies, descendents of Charlie, with MA5Bs is scary.

Canonically speaking, this situation occurred so often that spartan teams were sent out to kill rebels instead of regular marines due to a rise in casualties. When Spartans were sent out, one such team known as Noble Team had been known to repel rebl forces quite effectively, which is what they had been expecting to find on Reach as mentioned in the first mission of Halo: Reach.

Cypher with the spongebob reference nearly killed me XD Also, his _leg_ . I don't know if thats an Arma glitch, but whenever Jay moved his camera Cypher's leg stretched and retracted. It appears Tails has finally ascended to god-status. He is no longer confined to the mortal limits of size, able to enlarge his very being to titan like height and reduce himself so that he is invisible to the naked eye. If this does not prove that Tails should be labelled as a Euclid class entity, then I don't know what will. If anything he deserves his own (joke) SCP page at this point.
