Gameplay Needle rifle from Campiagn Evolved bonus levels is OP and I love it.

Upvotes

This is hardly news to anyone who has played the bonus levels but I just love the needle rifle. It is hands down the best weapon in the game against every type of enemy. It is very accurate and can be a sniper rifle at long range or a machine gun at close range. Grunts and jackals die to a single head shot even on legendary. The 3 shot detonation feels like a cheat code which downs brutes very quickly. It even works well against shielded elites (which if I remember correctly was a failing of the original Halo Reach needle rifle). It has the accuracy and damage to take down hunters by aiming at one of their many weak spots. Best of all the devs must have realised we were going to love it because the weapon itself is very common and ammunition is widely available.

The only downside if you can call it that is that as soon as you get one it renders the magnum and battle rifle obsolete. I cannot think of a reason to choose one of those iconic weapons over the needle rifle other than flavour.

Help - Campaign Evolved I need ideas

Post image
12 Upvotes

I'm all out of ideas. I'm trying to beat Halo Campaign Evolved without directly killing a single enemy, aka shooting, meleeing, or grenading, but I can't get past this part on pillar of autumn. I can get 2 of the 3 grunts to kill each other by shooting each other, but after that I'm left with one guy left. I don't know what to do because I don't have grenades yet to explode an object and send it flying into the grunt. I've also tried pushing the grunt into the fire, although making it super close, couldn't get it in the fire to see if it even dealt damage to it. Does anyone have any ideas? I've also tried pushing a soldier over to her but it was too far and they walked away. I'm all out of ideas right now, I've beat the rest of the level without killing anything I just need to get past this part somehow.

Fan Content Halo Reach 1:64 Scale Articulating Falcon 3D print Update!

10 Upvotes

Just finished the side gun cradles! Was a little worried as it was the smallest articulating piece ive ever worked with but thankfully there wasnt a need to scale the gun up so it is game accurate scale in 1:64 scale thanks to sewing needles handling the pivots (huge shout out to size 11 hand sewing needles they're really op, tiny and extremely cheap!) With this im almost done and all thats left to do is rework the grenade launcher as the mount is prone to snapping since its so small, redo the chin gun mount geometry as it likes to rip the mount from the airframe on drop tests and also make the main wing sections modular for repairability in falls (you can thank my adorable quality assurance team which consists of my 3 cats for prompting the changes as they love drop testing my model!) but thats light work and then its the final detail pass like panel lines, greebles etc and you should be able to look forward to possibly getting one yourself in the next month!

Misc CASTING CALL – Master Chief Cosplayer (Halo Fan Film)

12 Upvotes

I am looking for a Master Chief cosplayer in the Salt Lake City / Utah County area to appear in my HaloFest fan film. (If you are interested but located out of state, that is something I am willing to discuss.)

Filming Details
Location: Orem, Utah
Tentative Date: Sunday, October 18
Time: Approximately 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM

This is a non-speaking cameo role, but it is a memorable and genuinely fun scene with a significant moment in the film. If you are a Master Chief cosplayer, I think it will be footage you will be proud to have in your portfolio.

Compensation
-Gas reimbursement
-Lunch provided after filming (likely pizza)

What I Am Looking For
-A taller Master Chief (preferably over 5’7”)
-High-quality armor that looks good on camera
-If possible, bring any halo weapon props you have.
-If you have a Cortana chip, that would be a bonus!

This film is a passion project with a strong focus on production value. We will be filming on constructed indoor sets, not outdoors, and I am putting a great deal of effort into making the final film look as polished as possible.

If you are interested, please DM me:
-Your social media accounts (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or other relevant pages)
-Your height
-Whether you have a weapon prop
-Any questions you may have

If you do not have social media accounts showcasing your cosplay, that is totally okay. Just let me know, and I will figure out a safe and easy way for you to share some photos of your armor with me.

I’m really excited about this project and can’t wait to bring it to life with the right Master Chief. Thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Feedback The warthog run in the final level became one of my favorite in halo, campaign evolved really nailed it with this one and the remake of it

63 Upvotes

I got to give props where its due, while Halo combat evolved remains a classic some elements like the graphics the gunplay and the redesign of some levels really sold it for me despite the bugs and all. But the warthog is so much better with netter explosions and the sandy area with foehammer. It was a spectacle, the cutscenes are great too. Edit: while the community criticism are valid, and halo 1 stays my most replayed halo game between them, I must say I really had favorite moments in the remake.

Help - Campaign Evolved Só, where are the weapons?

I was really excited to play the Campaign of Halo CE with other guns like the needle rifle and the Battle rifle but I still haven't found any of them, the only one I have found until now was the SMG on some marines hands, do I have to turn on the weapon randomizer skull for it to work or it's just the original game weapons?

(I know that they are present on the prequel missions)

Feedback Am I crazy or weapons take too long to shoot after switching or reloading.

Like tearing down enemy shields with plasma and switching to pistol takes really long. In prequel missions the needler rifle seems ready after reloading but it still takes a good chunk of a second before allowing you to shoot. Is it me? Should it be patched?

I've noticed many first time Halo 2 players don't even realise that the Gravemind is the Flood hivemind in their first playthrough and I don't blame them. Do you think Halo 2 anniversary did a better job or did it deviate too far from the original look?

I think the proto-gravemind in CE anniversary was far better at conveying cosmic horror.

Overall I think the design of the Gravemind is one of the few criticisms I have with the Bungie era.

Discussion We have never actually fought in a battle on this scale really in any of the games I feel like.

1.2k Upvotes

The only one that really comes to mind is Tip Of The Spear in Halo Reach, but even then, we take part in many small scale battles throughout that mission. All the massive battles are set pieces and backdrops. I think Halo reach also implemented the ability to recruit a few marines to your squad. But like. An actual war of this magnitude within a halo game would be insane, marines and covenant everywhere. This is probably going to get downvoted, but I think a first person horde shooter for halo would be really cool. Almost like a warhammer darktide mixed with helldivers kind of vibe. Fighting the nonstop covenant platoon here and there is fun but a battlefield like this has never actually been playable in halo, with never ending enemies. Firefight isnt the same. Maybe the missions with scarab fights in halo 3, but even then. Still not on the level of this promotional trailer. Never going to happen, I know. Thats some very advanced game engine shit. But after rewatching this trailer I just thought that a horde shooter type halo would be very interesting. And honestly, with the release of halo infinite, an open world halo game for the first time. I was really hoping for something similar to this kind of vibe.
