"THE COVENANT IS ON REACH!! Does anyone copy?!!" - Halo Reach: Infantry Pre-Release 

there, you got pinned. that should make up for it

My bad bro 😭🙏🏽

@@thegodinme83 no problem man, I was just making a joke

_So I send a squad of Marines and a full army batallion on their place..._

@@pvt.jonwallace honestly more replaceable than a squad of spartans in MJOLNIR

Considering what Noble Team ended up doing? Worth

"Affirmative colonel"😂

_No man left behind_

@@pvt.jonwallace hey man love the halo videos keep it up 👊

Did you just say fangirl 🫣

@denzelsmashsymptom4264 yes mate ?

@@samthomas6132 I am well too busy with my engineering exams otherwise I would have asked for a Halo date 😆

he probably was pissed and wanting to get out of there quick...

We can all dream, but 343 hates good ideas.

The regular boys in green deserve some love right?

@@pvt.jonwallaceso do the boys in grey, and the boys in tan, and the boys in blue, and the boys in black. (CE Marines, Reach Army Troopers, UNSC Naval Crew Members, and ODSTs, they all deserve more love.)

Amen to that, brother. The fighting men and women of the Marine Corps, Army, Navy, and Air Force within the UNSC staved off the Covenant forces for nearly 30 years, fighting for every inch of soil. "Let us never forget, those who journey'd into the howling dark, and did not return. For their sacrifice required courage beyond measure. Sacrifice. And an unshakable conviction that their fight; our fight, was elsewhere."

a bit shitty the UNSC Army wasn't mentioned or even invited to that memorial according to lore, even Parangosky of all people thought that was rude

We need a marines main game 👊

Hes going to be with us for the rest of the playthrough for sure!!

@@pvt.jonwallace lmao nice!

Chips Dubbo is not a thing. Every third marine has the Australian voice actor 😂

@Ben-xe7bp they made him canon now my man, look up halo infinite: memory agent chapter 4. He survived everything from reach to the ark

@@leepowell8855 i stopped at reading at halo infinite…most of 343’s lore is cringe and shit

@@Ben-xe7bpyou’re beyond a bungie fanboy, because most of them love chips dubbo, you’re just delusional and pissed for no reason

​@@Ben-xe7bp Bro You Do Realize That A Lot Of The Sick Lore We Have Is Actually 343 Lore Right? People Tend To Forget That While 343 Games Have Been A Bit Lacking, Everything Else They Did Was AMAZING, They Did Wonders For The Lore, It's Just That They Are Soo Attached To The Books And Other Mediums That To Really Get What's Happening In Their Games You Either Read The Books Or Find The Audio Logs. Do You Know Why We Can Go And Show Off With A 40K Fan And Tell Him "Your Sh*t's Weak, Lmao, Strongest Universe My Ass"? You Can Thank Daddy 343 For That, Ancient Forerunner Lore, The Entire Flood Vs Forerunner War, Ancient Human Vs Forerunners, All The Sh*t That We Can Flex Beside The Common Use Of Stable Plasma Weapons Comes From There And They Can Suck It, We Got It Bigger. So Stop Assuming The Only Thing 343 Did Were The Games, They Actually Did A Lot Of Good For Halo, Problem Is When It Comes To Games, Microsoft Gets Involved And You Know What Happens When A Business Man Gets Involved In Game Making Right? Look At What Happend To Bungie When Activision Touched Them, Microsoft Simply Became More Like Activision So The Only Way 343 Had Left To Show They Actually Care Is Trough Improving The Lore, Doing What They Can When Microsoft Lets Them Breathe.

I mean if it were on first person this would be little more than a slightly modified Reach campaign with no shields Third person gives you also some environmental awareness to compensate for your diminished health and lack of shields.

@@pvt.jonwallace Makes sense, I just find some third person games to be disorienttin

Imagine you're fighting the covenant with your backs against the wall...most of your men are dead or missing......and out of nowhere an orange pickup truck with Spartans shows up and guns down dozens of aliens while you stand there just watching

_no traffic disruptions allowed_

Nah , not Arma 3...otherwise they would have desync'd out of existence and crashed or something worse...

You might want to watch Halo Evolutions: Mona Lisa, if you want to further traumatize yourself... _enjoy_

WaW style

_affirmative, it's the winter contigency!!_

@@pvt.jonwallace ...May god help us all.

there's more coming...standby

I mean joint operations between branches are common in real life, why wouldn't they be on the Halo universe as well?

@@pvt.jonwallace Of course it happens in Halo. Specifically during the battle for Visegrad, the marines were not deployed in the area of the communications relay. During Winter Contingency, there's only army troopers in full UCP uniform and kit. In the Reach campaign, the marines are only encountered in the shipyard which The Pillar of Autumn was docked at. They stick out with their full MARPAT uniform and kit. Operation Uppercut, another good example, was a joint operation of the UNSC Army, Air Force, and Navy. Troopers were used to board the ship, though. That indicates the marines available were already fully assigned to the intense naval battle happening simultaneously with Fall of Reach and Halo: Reach's campaign.

Man the Tom Clancy brand has been butchered by Ubisoft...

More incoming...standby

@@pvt.jonwallace LETS GOOOOOOOO SHI FINNA BE FIRE

it makes sense for US Halo fans but for Microsoft/Bungie adding human enemies will have most certainly drawn some unwanted attention or even backlash since Reach was already controversial as it was when it came out. Halo in the public eye was a staple for fighting genocidal aliens and space zombies/ancient robots. Human enemies will have spawned detractors condemning the series for "mimicking COD" and Microsoft/Bungie didnt want that. that's just sadly how it was back then...and still today to a degree.

@@pvt.jonwallace Reach was controversial? I don't remember that.

Oh it was, competetive players were losing their mind over weapon bloom and armor abilities on one side and you had lore fanatics ripping apart Bungie for retconning the Fall of Reach book with the campaign. Still enjoyed the game tho

Oh and wait for the last levels that this pre-release brought. This author straight up destroyed 343 with what he acomplished

Aight, if memory is correct there's a Marine mod for Halo 3 that is still functional. I will try to find it.

Du bon champagne cheap du dépaneur

this is available only on steam at the moment

I like the idea, but Mythic overhaul's enemies would stump marines easily without some drastic changes

@@pvt.jonwallace Agreed, a CE armored variant at the end missions, a buff to reach marines, additional stories like where you fight alongside Noble team, during their missions, and be in the pelican that gets shot down so you can be before lone wolf where you fight and die with several spartans, six included. Either that or getting lucky, and being on the autumn, will do on both.

I think its cause marines were the main defebding force on reach and troopers came in with the first attack wave

Actually its the other way around, the UNSC Army is the branch tasked with defending the planet they're established on long enough for the Navy and the Marines to arrive and assist. Because their size is relative to the planet's population/strategic importance most colonies had a minor garrison as protection and were easily destroyed by the Covenant. Because of its status as humanity's "fortress among the stars" Reach had by far the biggest UNSC Army garrison next to Earth itself. The reason they don't appear in other Halo games as much is that canonically you're fighting on alien worlds /spaceships most of the time, areas in which the UNSC Navy and by extension the UNSC Marine Corps are HEAVILY involved.

@@pvt.jonwallace people really tend to forget how big the halo lore is I bet some people don’t know that there’s over 1000 Spartan 4 by the time of 2557 due to them being spread outside of the galaxy and not just on the infinity

​@@thegodinme83 343 is stinky, sorry

@@justiceforjoggers2897 your not wrong lol

it would appear people LOVE to see regular infantry mods for Halo....I wonder why...

@@pvt.jonwallace many reasons im sure but for me its the bringing things back to a more level playing field aspect on top of looking awesome!

Good idea, but Im not the mod's author. I am just showcasing it

oh no, the mod creator is mentioned in the description of the video

No, those guys were Army. in the actual canon the Marine corps was never involved in the Visegrad relay incident.

Just a reminder that I'm just a guy playing/showing these mods, all credits and links to the authors are provided in the video descriptions

@@pvt.jonwallace ok fair enough then ^^ well someone should really send their info to microsoft ^^

@@blackshadow37_Wraith Given how trash Microsoft and 343 treats their employees and IPs as of late... its probably for the better that the modders keep working solo/in small groups for the time being

@@pvt.jonwallace ........again fair enough 0_0 then maybe they should just make their own gaming industry

@@blackshadow37_Wraith easier said than done....

right now my dude, you just need Halo MCC on steam and you can download the mod from there

Wdm? Campaign has them

the playable characters are set by the author I am afraid. you could ask him on Steam...

It is...

yeah its a mod for Halo MCC on PC only

I think it’s meant to overstate that we’re not a Spartans anymore.

how will it work in first person? you would basicly be a spartan without shields with how the movement would work, controlling a biped on the other hand is alot diffrent and you need to see what the character do and hot its positioned.

These are Army Troopers not Marines.

@@phuntshodorji3903 don't use lore as an excuse

Idk why people like the CE look so much, personally I think it’s kinda meh

@@HanzTheODST it’s iconic! They feel like SciFi Marines… they had the best voicelines in the series as well

@@HanzTheODST yeah. Halo 2 and 3 had much better Marine designs.
