NEW HALO INFINITE ‘ALPHA PACK’ STORY EXPLAINED! (+ MY THOUGHTS LOL) 

Quite so

Lol 40 over there. That’s a walk in the park over here in Australia 🇦🇺 lol come complain when it hits 45-48c I laughed when you said it’s 40c

Eklund dating sim 😳😳

@@waitwhat9939 O God no

everything u said was spot on. respect for being real and not a kiss ass like some other halo ytbers

This is one of the cutscenes of all time

@@HiddenXperia My favorite moment was when the spartans yelled "Its Shooting Time!".

I hate your PFP I thought I had a stray hair on my screen lmfao

I’m not surprised 343 keeps repeating the same shit since Halo fans love repeating the same jokes anyway

I like that part when the camera angle changes by 9° really emphasizes the standing there.

Fr🤦‍♀️

343 actually deserve an award for consistently managing to blow our expectations and make something even worse than what we expected

Bro I just want to like this game, it could be so good 😭

it's starting to seem that halo raised the bar to its peak during bungie's days. now it seems that 343 is buckling under bungie's acheivements

This game is one giant missed opportunity (at every corner and every turn)

You’re expecting 343 to make content? My guy. We’ve been doing this for 11 years now lol

Nobody cares

@@kodredcud yup. 343 can’t do anything right

I wish we have bungie back now

Just be lucky it's not modern bungee. If it was this cutscene would be enough of an excuse for them to delete the entire campaign

Do you really think they are capable of that? Dude, they are flighting coop right now.

I like to think that that’s basically what she meant lmao

maybe we replaced her in the team much like how six replaced Tom on noble

@@Miragemc1 Or our Fireteam was the replacement for hers

"Eliminate. Every. Last. one. of them!!" Every last one of them:

We do. It's so bad I've started playing DOOM. Best decision of my gaming life.

@@halolegend1172 bruh it took infinite being bad for you to play doom? That game is awsome anyway lmao

I don't, they should've pulled the wool from their eyes before Inifinte came out. be happy the sequel or what ever is coming, but never be hyped.

It's Joe Staten in charge of these cutscenes.

@@SB3_01 oh god you can’t be serious..

Halo: the Endless, Coming 2025. They will Ascend

@@xvx_k1r1t0_xvxkillme7 yeah man, another below water campaign. Can't wait lmao.

@@ia19753 We are in Halo infinite now not Halo 5.

@@Pablogil0117 yep, and the halo infinite campaign was below dog water too. You can keep up with the copium.

@@ia19753 Well I don't know about you but i loved infinite's campaign (taking a little to the back the open world).

Dude it's hot go cool yourself

@@john.jambek3695 I think it's a joke

@@john.jambek3695 it's a joke

"phenomenal narrative"? You and I are not watching the same thing.

@@DarksideLegendary it's a joke

Agree, Gek is my favorite character along with Jul in halo 4 spartan ops

Just fighting multiplayer matches for these "live service" narratives is incredibly boring; and unless they make the multiplayer aspect an actual unique game mode kinda like Invasion then it doesn't work, and they cant do that because there's no playable Elites or Brutes for us to roleplay as. They need to add missions that have us fighting non-player enemies like Spartan Ops did. Seriously, how difficult could it be for them to throw some Banished on some maps and let us fight them?

just something simple like adjusting enemy numbers a little, especially for less than 4 players, would have gone a long way towards making Spartan Ops better, but the great idea, like so many things in 343, was squandered.

Your comment inspired me slightly to imagine how this could have been tied in. With us rescuing Dihn during the first half of this season and putting him back in action. We also know that "multi team" is going to be a thing, where there are a dozen or so teams of 2. Eklunds monologue would have been a great pre cursor for an event game mode If you've played Titanfall 2 you may be familiar with the "Bounty Hunt" game mode, where the teams are competing to be the ones to take down an AI controlled mini boss multi team, but one of the teams is Eklund and Dihn as AI bots with health bars like the campaign mini bosses. Killing them nets you extra points but they're "wolves, on the hunt" or whatever their catchphrase was. Meaning they try and track and take down whichever team of two is currently in first place.

@@squarbs yeah I’ve noticed that after a bit Just the theming in that first cutscene is like oh he died lol because she’s doing the whole edgy loner shit.

Same but it works now for me on mobile

Thought I was the only one because at first, no one in the comments mentioned it

@@playerplus5917 nope, been a thing that started at around 8 or so days ago, I’ve encountered it on a couple videos. However apparently just now they’ve all been fixed. So pretty happy, but no clue what could be causing it.

We 100 aren't getting one. It's either going to be a ODST style standalone game, or just a straight up sequel.

@@alexlyster3459 we are getting one. Halo the endless 2025. So hype

@@agentnukaz1715 Yeah, but it's not going to be an expansion.... By 3-4 years it will be sequel/standalone title.....

@@alexlyster3459 doubt it

"Just like in the simulations"

Yeah 343 can’t do anything right

@@revan5293 They can but they need to be better

@@revan5293 Well it's more like Microsoft can't do anything right with Halo.

It’s been unsustainable since 2011 when 343 took over the franchise. We just didn’t know it back then.

@@Pablogil0117 You see what Kiki Wolfkill, Bonnie Ross, and Frank O' Conner have envisioned for the franchise my guy? These people act like we're too stupid and gullible to not notice their lack of care for the franchise. It's sickening.

Damn thats true

It hasn't really been until 343 took over that they urgently tried to somehow make multiplayer a lore thing. In the Bungie days the closest thing to "lore" in MP was Reachs Invasion mode. The story was in the campaign. The rest was there for fun. Nobody cared about 16 Master Chief clones fighting on Blood Gulch not being lore accurate.

I don’t have much hopes, but it would be a cool way to introduce Firefight

you know the state of halo is dire when people's last desperate hope is a battle royale. a fucking battle royale. the bar for expectations is on the actual floor at this point

I don’t think Infinite has that type of subtlety tbh, once BR gets hinted at in-game (which it probably will at some point before they release it), it will be blatantly obvious. Her dialogue at the end was pretty vague, so you could really take anything from it

I always find it fun to look into these things. I’m one of the few people who enjoys a lot about this game. I love the way it plays.

Careful, Halo fans don't like it when you're not shitting on this game 24/7, anything other than nonstop negativity and you're just a 343i shill

Man you’re gonna overdose hard on the amount of hopium you must be on

By narrative are you talking about the 99% of it that got completely deleted from the game forever since Bungie is way too lazy to make a third game so they don't have to do that stupid s*** every time new story content is added to the game? The 99% of story content that new players will never be able to experience because it's never being put back in the game? The 99% that new players are forced watch on RU-vid because they can't play it themselves?

@@mariobadia4553 give it a rest Mario. The DCV happened years ago and was no where near 99% of the game. Since then Bungies been pumping out quite a steady stream of content with story as a big focus now. Like it or not Destiny is in a pretty good place right now. Certainly better than Halo is.

@@mariobadia4553 can you read? I was talking about season of the haunted, not the vaulted content that had mid storytelling 🤡

@@ZonoYT i agree with most of it but our character was not as significant as you say.

So you people can scream at 343 about not having new ideas????

@@mariobadia4553 no, so Halo Infinite can actually have some new fucking content. Right now it's seeming like 343 forgot the "live service" part of live service games.

Firefight would be a lot better in my opinion

most of the playerbase neglected spartan ops, so i wouldn't bet on it

By that you mean delete ninety-nine percent of the story content from the game so new players have no idea what the hell is going on and who the hell these people are and why the hell they should care? Why should 343 a God awful garbage anti new player b******* like that? With Destiny if you want new you have no choice but to watch 45 minute RU-vid videos just to know who these characters are and why the hell you should care about them

That's to much work for little ole 343.

@@conz2929 I mean we're talking about an extremely lazy company that is modern bungee. A company so damn lazy that they would rather just delete permanently 99% of the story content that people paid money for and f*** over new players then make a third Destiny game so they wouldn't have to delete paid content from the game.

@@mariobadia4553 New players wouldn't even know who the damn Banished is to start with! You throw a new player to Halo whose only ever heard of the Master Chief fighting the Covenant, and wouldn't even understand the Covenant barely exists anymore by the time of Infinite's story. In order to know what happened to Cortana, they would have to play through the previous games or watch a video on youtube about it just to understand what the hell happened to her that led up to Infinite REGARDLESS. If new players want to find out where the Banished came from, and who Atriox is, they would have to watch a video on it or play Halo Wars 2 to understand how much of threat the Banished is. Most new players wouldn't even know that the spartans in Infinite aren't they same spartans like in Bungie era games. What are the spartan 4s? What happened to the last 3? What the hell is the forerunner? What are head hunters? If they want to find out, they gonna have to play the games or watch videos on these topics. 343 made the multiplayer free, so that new players can EXPERIENCE the gameplay of Halo, not so they can understand the story. When Bungie worked on D2 after Forsaken, they made the "New Light Experience", where new players can understand what was going on even if they didn't play the original D2 story, the Red War campaign, when they vaulted it with the rest of the other dlcs to make room for future dlcs. But the seasons aren't for new players to now the story fully, it's to CONTINUE the story of where veteran players are currently at. 343 doesn't have time to recap the 20 fucking years of story development for new players. If new players want to understand it, they're gonna have to play it or watch it, if they're interested in the story. But 343 are gonna introduce new characters like the spartan commander, so new players can feel like they didn't miss out on much with the Banished story.

No

yeah it happened to me, but for some reason after like an hour or something like that i just unlocked all when i rank up. like i just have finished 3 of the challenges, so hope you get the same thing

@@alexbluer gotcha, it’s been a minute so I’ll check

@@alexbluer it updated, thanks!

They should. But they won't. Because any PVE content would take away from the already lacking Campaign. In old Halos that wasn't an issue, it was just an additional thing to do if you wanted. But now that you have to buy the campaign separately at full price, they don't want to take any risk of giving people something the campaign gives them. If you want to shoot at an Elite, you need to shell out my friend.

@@EskChan19 I wouldn't mind making it what they did with Reach and ODST for MCC and have access to firefight if you own the campaign

And then you people would scream about spartan Ops being back

Spartan Ops was only disliked because it was clearly rushed (apart from the great cutscenes), we played on the same maps over and over - a lot of which were unedited multiplayer maps simply not designed for this kind of content so it got repetitive. It was a very good idea but executed poorly. They should have been unique mini campaigns which tied into the main Halo story to make it feel impactful, the Spartan Ops story had huge implications for the lore but was completely forgotten about.

@@oreroundpvp896 that's because just like bungee to listen to the people that were screaming and throwing a hissy fit. I mean bungee also made the massive mistake of listening to the cry babies in the community since that's the entire reason why the grave mind and the arbiter got the boot in Halo 3. By that i mean the Arbiter having next to no involvement in the story plus barely any lines and the gravemind not even showing up instead being replaced with a stupid slow mo mechanic that completely takes you out of the story and getting off screened which is extremely anticlimactic when this guy was supposed to be a big giant threat.

@@mariobadia4553 Well if that was entirely true we'd have the coveted forerunner tank already... the single biggest issue is there segmentation of Infinite MP, forge, and campaign and co op campaign which leads ultimately to segregation of the halo house.. I would of rather waited and there whole team on the same page tbh

@@oreroundpvp896 Right! Infinite has full integration open for a banging narrative and rich lore exploration, its like watching a freshly baked pie mold in front of you, unfortunately.
