"There's something wrong with this swamp, Sir...." Halo CE: HAVOC MOD 

glad someone else noticed it

We would've been 💩💩💩💩 for years

Damn spook, you dont have touptight all time, only on mission and _especially_ in fhe bedroom

In the lore the Chief wanted to GTFO as soon as he set foot on the swamp, if he had encountered what the mod added in canon he probably would have.... This mod alongside Ruby's Rebalanced and Combat Devolved are tied for the best 343 Guilty Spark changes in my opinion

Yeah those Marine encounters were sadly limited by the engine's loading times... Didnt stop me from saving a few tho

​@@pvt.jonwallace they were actually killed. When you reach outside the first crashed dropship and return back. They're dead.

@@Gravermind oh I get what you mean, those guys at the beginning were killed when I entered the facility and their shit left on the ground. I was talking about the other guys you run into after the flood reveal that you can try to save....

lmao and usually the suicidal marine is supposed to kill them all, never seen him survive before but it's awesome that he reacts as an enemy still too

I legit thought he was friendly for a second, then the red reticle came...

That wasnt the ptsd,it was the flood messing with their mind

@@nicolae-alexandruluca7853 how tho he aint infected

@@nicolae-alexandruluca7853 You mean like ptsd lol

_Watch your mouth son, this stuff is your history!!_

Bungie apparently wanted a real song for that part in the original but couldn't get the rights so Marty made the rock sounds.

Pretty sure thats the same song used in There's Something About Halo. Great callback if so.

aww thats a cute dog

@pvt.jonwallace the best dogs of all

you forgot the abandoned helmets and guns on the ground.....and no bodies

@@pvt.jonwallace right, it probly sounds crazy bc no one wants to find dead bodies, but one thing scarier then finding dead bodies is just finding blood bc it had to come from somewhere

I would be cryin and keepin around chief but acceptin death

The mod author was definitely trolling putting that song on the cutscene.... Luckily....youtube didnt throw a tantrum over it...

@@pvt.jonwallace lol true and true. But yeah I wonder if the author was inspired by that old New grounds cartoon too.

My eyes still hurt from playing Halo CEA...

@@pvt.jonwallace Maybe one day Halo C.E will get the remaster it deserves. But honestly we'll probably get a crap remake before that happens.

@@pvt.jonwallace it absolutely ruined the flood encounters on this mission

343 has failed on so many Halos its rediculous.

Oh dude exactly my problem with it. And the marines who die and then despawn. Although I did "like" the redone starting encounter because I got surprised and jumpscared by a ton of camo flood and then the whole battle had me pale-faced and terrified. So that at least, and the larger amount of blood and gore everywhere, was good.

true, but then again, it's the HAVOC mod. it's supposed to be chaotic and, dare I say, over the top. I feel like if they toned down the bodies and limited the gore to specific rooms, then it would make it a bit better.

oooof imagine if this was how the level played out back in 2001....or the entire game for the matter

@@pvt.jonwallace That would've been ALMOST beyond this Universe. 🤣

Yeah the mod does indeed music and ambience from those games on this particular mission.

FIRST....was the slow burn....right when you land, you are watched from the shadows of a nearby tree that is cloaked, then the helmets on the ground with nobodies to speak of AND there is no blood + the tank being disabled really makes it a land mark.... 2nd, when you get to the entrance of the..... "Armory" (Covenant words not mine) you are meet with no grunts nor jackals, which is refreshing because it's setting up more terror then horror.... what's the difference you may ask? i have no good way of explaining it but i can link in someone who does it pretty well: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5h6UPSHYhG4.html i left a time mark for those's who are curious Moving on: As you make your way through the first room, it is littered in bodies....expect for elite's with weapons left behide by both party's, which can can be pretty normal.....then....you take the elevator....more bodies, blood everywhere, with hunters included. I can't say how tough these hunters are in this mod but one thing is for sure....they are hard to take down....and yet it looks like they were ripped apart like paper. Then ther- 6:35 …….yeah...….i got nothing to say there....just left at a aww ill skip a bit to more interesting moments like say.....WHEN YOU GO BACK TO THE START...... When you return back to the marines you left, you notice there are more bodies that you have not seen before....and as you return to your drop-point....their gone, ammo on the ground, no signs of a attack, NOTHING.....expect flares left behide. After that, you return back to the underground......the pile of bodies are gone now like they were never there.... NOW...this is what truly made me....actually scared of the flood for the first time in forever This entire thing put on edge: 13:32 ..........yeah.......plus i like the touch about Johnson being immune to the flood like in the books. What i can say about the next battle is.......well, New objective: SURVIVE AND ESCAPE. The Flood are here and- OH GOD THE MUSIC IS KICKING IN AND I CAN HEAR THE HOSTS SCREAM IN PAIN AND MOAN! .........After that (won't go into vanilla things like the elevator breaking down expect for more enemy's spawn) you make your way through the facility (more blood) then...you finally hear theirs voices 29:51 During ALL of this you are desperately trying to say nearby marines from a fate worse then death (if you rightly equipped) After two rooms of many flood..... there is no sound.....expect you and the remaining marines you saved.... and the facility itself.... As you make your way up, killing a few stragglers you missed but manageable, you encounter more flood and marines.....the marines lasted seconds... At this point, you get the feeling that your the only one who's going to survive this, not because of choice no no.....its because your the only one who's faster, stronger, and smarter then everyone else... You are now getting conformable with your new enemy's and the shock factor is over, you starting to get familiar with their tactics and now destroy them like there your old enemy's They bunch up, you punish them by plasma grenade, too many spiders, full auto gun = spray and pray This repeat's till - 36:19 Johnson greets with open arms with several marines with ammo...unfortunately, the elevator is broken too, so you continue onwards without Johnson and his squad. But it does not take long to find another room with a lone marine (i think) fighting off the flood...till you join. Delighted to see another marine, you make a dash to get to the other side....then your motion tracker goes off.... With a shotgun in hand you mop the floor of the....flood (did not mean to do that) destroying them and saving the marine. I do not know why the marine does not follow you but blame the AI code....it can be limiting at times. And....you found your way out of this hell hole. As you rise the top you see many marines about to be lunch.....you won't allow this. For a short brief rest, you and the marines are ready to go. The rest plays out as nor- OH ANOTHER SPARATN AND FOEHAMMER ACTUALLY ARRIVES. NOW...the rest plays out as normal. And to you dear reader, i thank you for you time and eye balls for reading this and now your mind has embraced horrors. Have a good night or day.

no me da pena admitir que no tocaba esta mision para nada cada vez que jugaba el juego solo a los 10 años era un miedoso la vd

_Standby_

its actually audio from the movie Aliens, a nice nod from the author to remember how that franchise inspired lots of things in the Halo universe

@@pvt.jonwallace Wait really? I've seen Aliens plenty of times and I know they have a similar thing. But I could have sworn it's the same voices as the marines from Halo:CE

If you listen carefully you can hear the shrieks of the xenomorphs during that audio segment

a man of culture I see!

no its the Master Chief collection
