14:35 Is that Offensive Bias or just a guardian sentinel?

"Large dias" 🗣🗣🗣

Nothing on earthark other than the test files from the github repo?

In a fantasy world Halo 2 was the last Halo game ever to be released. The series forever ended on the xbox. I still live life like its the mid 2000s trying to relive what it was like then. My childlike tendencies are here to stay. I woke up today pretending it's a snowday so I can miss school and stay home all day playing Halo 2 campaign. God what id do to go back. Halo 2 Was Life.

I LOVE your content, thank you for uploading these.

Thank you so much for helping preserve these lost levels!

COVENANT SHIP SOUNDS LIKE THE NAME OF A LEVEL WE SHOULD HAVE HAD IT'S COVENANT SHIP!

I'm pretty sure the two sentinel maps were likely just AI test playgrounds for sentinels. Just giving them complex geometry and seeing if they can navigate it. Given that there were supposed to be, if i remember, 4 sentinel types (2 of which were cut from the game) along with the introduction of the sentinel enforcer i can see there being emphasis on trying to make them work.

im telling

Is there anything about forerunner tank?

So... The covenantship should have been after cario station and it looks like that chief should have come in to the reactor, or something like that, through ventilation shafts and exit by the... Looks like hangar...

Pretty fascinating stuff, thanks for sharing. :)

I really thought this version would explain all the cylindrical tunnel like debris around Quarentine Zone, Still looks like a mix of Halo CE/basin/alphamoon geometry. It has hatch door holes in one section like a radio tower or teather. 14:35 It has nothing to do with the Sentinel factories which fall either, completley different design.

Looks like the top of the mantle's approach from Halo 4 when you're in the broadsword

did you modify this bsp to play in sapien? every time i load this scenerio, my game crashes

They should atleast kept the phantoms crash into each other😂

Looks like halo 2.5

This really a good example of how important sounds design is for games cause good lord this didn’t register as halo for me

This model of masterchief seems more advanced than the other

Omg that draw distance

some of the geometry in these reminds me of halo 4 i wonder if they took inspiration from some of these for the rooms in that game

Someone needs to restore these cut lvls

I would have preferred this geo versus what we got in the release.

About to watch all of these before Microsoft strikes it all off TH-cam

OH MY GAAAAAAAAAAAAWD I need a full map made with this!!!

I like that shotgun melee It seems more aggressive than the usual animation

I think the more delapidated design of Halo 3 works better since the city did have quite a hard landing by the time the player gets there, but the Halo 2 geometry definitely should've been used more.

modders need to make this a full level asap zwz meanwhile 343incompetant are to busy making a bastardized remake of halo 1

I loce to see this content :) Any idea if we can get/download this somewhere?

VIdeo's fixin' to be killed by the guardians

The part cut from this level I'll always dream of the most is how we were supposed to drop the Mausoleum of the Arbiters onto the Gravemind to kill it. Bungie so badly wanted to do something with the flood infected Arbiters in both Halo 2 and 3 and we never got it sadly.

the geometry of the forerunner structure reminds me a lot of the second mission in Halo Infinite, where theres a lot of wide open hallways with obstacles in them

very interesting

Oh wow it actually looks like H2 high charity...why didn't they do that?

Holy shit. Could a modder restore it into a playable level with a (heap) of work?

I remember hearing about how guardian sentinels would've had their own skippable vignette (like the Chieftain imprisoning Johnson). I almost wonder if it would've happened at 0:37's open intersection. It seems like it'd be a great place for them to possibly appear and attack enemy-piloted banshees flying through here, giving a great cutscene demo of their attack potential, that would also flow well if skipped and approached in gameplay. I also think this because of how we did see some banshees just lying about, maybe that would've been how we got access to them?

Do you know that infamous halo 2.5 version of Cortana got leaked? Where it was the Cortana level in H2’s engine. I believe they used that in multiplayer as well, from what I remember max hoberman sharing.

Low Charity

Got an archive set up for these videos just in case? Love what you do.

this looks so much better than the release version

Oh my god I always wanted to see the halo 2.5 art test map even if it doesn't look as good as the screenshots we have

that seraph in the hangar has me dying

I just want to take these levels, stick them in unreal and wander around this, forerunner city, and guardian forest in VR.

So when we see "player 0 went outside of the world now he is dead" does that mean there is actual death trigger volumes present in this geometry or is this some weirdness in the tag test build?

I live for this kind of content. Thank you

Okay so conspiracy time: is the fact that the player starts with a UNSC shotgun on a level with only covenant weapons proof that Bungie were working on a brute shotgun like weapon and they just used the existing human weapon as a placeholder? Afterall brutes are the only covenant enemy to use shotguns in the final game. It makes sense in context but still suspicious regardless, no?

Finally the true geometry of cortana level such a shame what we never got a recreation of this level with the flabirters and the gravemind boss figth in a scarab

Thank you for showing this

THE SKYBOX LOOKS DOPE

Been searching for weeks thank you!!!!
