If you like Warthog Runs check out this Warthog Run we made in Halo 4: th-cam.com/video/_R78_fGeh44/w-d-xo.html Now almost the entire whole Halo series has Warthog Runs!
It's just a thought... It feels like they cut the Warthog Run during development because they were going to use it for a different point in the story. The way it plays out is similar to the Final mission in Halo 3
I think the only way you could make this better cut to the M12LRV/Warthog Yes I'am a true Halo ner-FAN TRUE FAN & have an elite walk past & slap a parking ticket on it & to be even more cannon in halo 3 have 117 jump in the warthog to escape to collapsing ring only to have A bunch of ticket's & a car boot clamped to it forcing yo to take the Pelican instead......as intended originally HENCE why the map is so massive & it's all.....well mostly outside Now game time : Remember in halo 2 after the bomb these bird's broke orbit meaning they can be used in space PROBLEM SOLVED or one would think ? & what's the pelican based on from halo 1 !
I can see why they cut it. Definitely looks like it lacks a certain "fun" factor. The Warthog is slow and, with no gunner, all you can do is just drive.
Microsoft rushed the development of halo2 because they didn't want t Halo 2 detracting sales from the 360 near launch. The Great Journey wasn't meant to be the last level, it was supposed to switch back to MC for another level or two.
@@abointedtoyblingofmats Bungie worked until their brains exploded. Back in the days developers would fuck their free time just to finish the games . Developing Halo was a hell because of how much they had to do in such a small window of time. Nowadays developers purposely release unfinished games and promise the games will get DLC 's Look at Halo 5 for example. An unfinished mess that was a complete game after 1 year AFTER being launched
Halo 1: ends with warthog run and chief escaping on a ship Halo 2: was supposed to end with warthog run and chief escaping on a ship (they just cut the warthog run) Halo 3 ends with warthog run and chief escaping on a ship Then halo 4 ends with driving too but that’s a ship
this is so weird yesterday I was playing the halo 2 campaign with my friend and I told him I felt what halo 2 was missing was a warthog run sequence like at the end of 1 and 3. he referred to the hunting the scarab missions for its tunnel scene but that didn't quite capture the feel of a warthog run but this this did , this is what halo 2 was missing
Spread the word. With Halo 2 on pc we can add all the cut content. We need to start by finishing the first Demo mission. We also need to make a mission where Rtas (aided by unngoy of all ranks, a couple hunters, Sangheili minors, majors, ultras, and spec ops sangheili) retakes his Covenant cruiser (facing jackals, yanme, brute minors, majors, captains, and honor guards). We also need a mission where you play as Sergeant Johnson and fight with Miranda Keyes and marines against the flood, sentinels, and brute-led Covenant forces. Extra descriptive details: The Rtas mission should include heavy weapons fuel rod unngoy on your team for a change. The elite minors (3) and majors (2) should have plasma rifles, needlers, and carbines. You should also have a spec ops elite with an energy sword, an ultra elite with a needler, and a spec ops elite with a carbine on your side. One of the majors should have dual plasma rifles. The brutes should have brute plasma rifles, carbines, shot guns, and brute shots as their main weapons. For a change, some jackal majors should be armed with brute plasma rifles, some yanme should get brute plasma rifles, one brute major should have a beam rifle, and at least one brute captain/honor guard should have a fuel rod gun. For the Johnson mission. Marines should have a mix of submachine guns, shot guns, pistols, sniper rifles, and battle rifles as weapons. You should get 6-8 Marines to fight with and the brutes should be a mix of minors, majors, and captains. The brutes should be armed with plasma rifles, carbines, brute shots, and needlers for a change. These covenant forces will also include jackals, jackal snipers, unngoy, and yanme. They will also fight flood and sentinels forces for a good scrap. Player 2 gets to be Miranda in co-op mode and this mission is a prequel to Quarantine Zone ending so it will be a infantry based mission with a map that looks similar to the Sacred Icon.

High charity is 200 miles long in diameter from one end of the city itself to the other. i was surprised about the marine pilot clip though, that should of been used in the Quarantine zone when we see pelicans flying by, or even could be signs of a lost pelican crash (like in lost warthog run)

@@meowsandstuff We could still add the missions I asked for plus a dreadnaught mission where you fight elite minors and majors, brutes, unngoy, jackals, hunters, yanme, a couple ultras if it's on legendary, spec ops elites, and a zealot with dual plasma rifles. You also get a squad 5 of ODST to aid you during the mission (1 with a shot gun, 2 with submachine guns, and 2 with battle rifles). Plus all the content that we know is missing.
Bill Clark The Marathon Infinity cut content reference as well: the one with the old space BASE jumping cutscene and subsequent carrier level, before the durian bomb was added. The original Marathon Infinity level this scene was supposed to reference is still in that game, called Naw Man He's Close, but it's no longer set to vacuum and you instead spawn in the hull breach instead of having the cool skydiving sequence to the ship, given it would have been hard to do on a 2.5D engine. Then New Mombasa could be expanded with the old cut level design with some ODST tie ins too, including Buck's squad falling in when Regret's carrier jumps out.
The fact that this runs looks more fun than the actual Halo CE final run says something, they should have keep it in game omg, they always remove the good stuff
It's so great to see this level after so many years of hearing about it in the developer commentary! I never thought I'd ever see this level be playable. Fantastic work!
The grunts do occasionally say that in the normal game. Any Grunt that calls Master Chief "sissy" has got a pair of cold, stainless steel balls. That will probably be splattered all over the floor when Chief is done with them.

@@ddsjgvk To each his own. But most Halo fans love Halo 2 and see it as something truly special. Its the most common favorite for hardcore fans But, everyone has their own tastes and nothing is for everyone.
@@billclark5055 since I read the books I wish the modding community would make missions for all those battles described there which doesn't appear in the games, like what you said, and halo CE would get the battle of the ODST vs the Covenant for that hill where the UNSC would establish a base in the halo ring, told in the Halo: The Flood book, now that would be fucking awesome
This feels so right. It completes the original trilogy so perfectly. Especially if you think about the fact that the first game did a Warthog run through a human ship, the second game's would have been through a covenant ship, and the third is through a forerunner structure. Thematically, I think that arc is just perfect for the trilogy. :D
I want a Halo spin off where you play a sangheili, and at the end there's a ghost run. Maybe even to shake the formula a bit, a ghost chase with ennemies trying to gun you down in their own vehicles while you try to escape.
Hey man just saw this! Great that you’re still out here! When I was young my cousins, friends and I would all watch your videos to find skulls and secrets in the halo series. Keep going in life wish you well
YEP was thinking the same! We need the proper earth level from the original demo, and this warthog run added in a remaster, and I would not even be mad.
@@SameBasicRiff And the covenant ship level that was replaced by the durian bomb; the chief was supposed to fly from the station to the ship's hull, fight his way inside, presumably via a pulse laser turret maintenance duct and blow up the ship from within, as yet another reference to Marathon, this time a similarly (this time partially) cut idea from the Marathon Infinity maps Naw Man He's Close, Foe Hammer and Hang Brain. That is why the chief doesn't have the bomb in the teaser trailer. As for the rest of Earth being on fire in the trailer, I'm not sure why that was changed, as I'm not sure if they added the significance of New Mombasa being over the ARK portal (or the ARK itself, as it was originally intended to be) later on for Halo 3 and ODST.
@@lionocyborg6030 ahh yes. and good catch on the earth burning thing. An invasion even on half the scale of reach would have been so cool. Probably a time/ tech issue with that one.
What an amazing thing blackdimund has done! I had no idea there was a missing hog run, or that it was being fixed. Thank you general heed for this video.
@BulgaroSlav Okay so, I haven't seen your comment and I've recently just saw it right now. It's not that, I just really like the design of High Charity and the Covenant, it would be cool if there was an Covenant version of the Warthog Run honestly m Please don't childishly say that I'm insane for having an opinion, I hope you'll have a good day just like you
@@DickChimney There's no telling what was the true one, this was cut and they're using what they have and think. They didn't have enough time to finish up.
The entire scene is untextured minus NPCs/Vehicles.. pretty common to find untextured maps, especially in old game files.. overall would just need someone to texture it, which is a lot more work than it sounds lmao
Man i fucking love you thanks for this video it was awesome to see something like this love halo love your channel i hope you never stop suprising with your videos!
"And so when we were making the soundtrack for halo 2, we wanted to spice up what we already had. So we added a couple more wah-wah-wahs with the guitar in it*
Doing this on legendary would have been a pain. Sniper Jackals, Rocket Launcher Flood, Brutes with Brute Shots, Drones. I can already hear myself cussing and yelling and dying a thousand times.
Well, this is still extremely impressive despite not being totally authentic looking. For one person or even two or three to have pulled that off is pretty amazing. :) P.s. love the incorporation of the cut flood creater who's name I can't remember suddenly.. Crap.. lol
That is a Flood Juggernaut. Extremely high health, large size, good speed, and can kill you in 2 or 3 hits on Easy. I wish it wasn't cut from the game, but most people would have had significant difficulty beating it. I think it would have appeared a couple times, one of them being on foot.
Wow. I can only imagine. Someone needs to get a team together and remaster halo 2. Like what SPV3 did. Make it like how Bungie originally wanted. Can you imagine levels like delta halo that had so much unused space, now completely full of encounters or free roaming objectives.
When Halo 2 comes out on PC with MCC, this coud be made into an actual custom mission that could be played by millions. I feel like a lot of the cut Halo 2 content may end up finally being realized after all these years when that happens.
Or the mission where chief almost ended the war early and almost killed truth, but of all things to stop him the true demon itself A FUCKING JACKAL SNIPER.
This was amazingly done! I tried doing this on the Xbox version a while back but couldn't even get the map to load after "enabling" that BSP. The PC map editor probably made things a lot easier. The juggernaut spawns and moving parts were great additions, and the crashing pelican with audio blew me away. 10/10.
I've always been confused how Keyes told the master chief that the capture of a shipboard AI was not acceptable or something, but then he goes and leaves cortana on high charity? The capital of the covenant and being overrun by flood? I know it was a "leave me and save yourself" situation, but the chief strikes me as someone who would rather keep cortana safe and find another way out than just leaving her to save his own skin, even if it was to board a ship going to earth.
RAsplez 98 its prolly because cortana had a bomb right next to her just incase the covenant got too close. she couldnt have anticipated that the gravemind could do the things it did to her
@@sharkfacemlg but I'm sure there were so many other colonies safe from the prying eyes of the covenant. Earth may give them the jewel, but capturing an AI would provide you with the entire crown.
Would've loved a Warthog run on Halo 2, but that would just make it kind of redundant. Putting in 3 Warthog runs in a row at the last level in the first 3 games.
dude the way the pelican smashes into the beam and the warthog flies off and smashes into the column looks so cinematic and bungielike its almost like they made it
Honestly, this is really great work by whoever did this. However, the mission itself just doesn't look even remotely fun as far as a warthog driving sequence. It plays really clunky on a story level though this is perfect.
If you like Warthog Runs check out this Warthog Run we made in Halo 4: th-cam.com/video/_R78_fGeh44/w-d-xo.html

@@billclark5055 Mate, we have no idea what half of Halo 2's cut story was gonna have, so it wouldn't work.
@@meowsandstuff We could still add the missions I asked for plus a dreadnaught mission where you fight elite minors and majors, brutes, unngoy, jackals, hunters, yanme, a couple ultras if it's on legendary, spec ops elites, and a zealot with dual plasma rifles. You also get a squad 5 of ODST to aid you during the mission (1 with a shot gun, 2 with submachine guns, and 2 with battle rifles). Plus all the content that we know is missing.
Bill Clark The Marathon Infinity cut content reference as well: the one with the old space BASE jumping cutscene and subsequent carrier level, before the durian bomb was added. The original Marathon Infinity level this scene was supposed to reference is still in that game, called Naw Man He's Close, but it's no longer set to vacuum and you instead spawn in the hull breach instead of having the cool skydiving sequence to the ship, given it would have been hard to do on a 2.5D engine. Then New Mombasa could be expanded with the old cut level design with some ODST tie ins too, including Buck's squad falling in when Regret's carrier jumps out.
The fact that this runs looks more fun than the actual Halo CE final run says something, they should have keep it in game omg, they always remove the good stuff
It's so great to see this level after so many years of hearing about it in the developer commentary! I never thought I'd ever see this level be playable. Fantastic work!
*FUN FACT*: 4th movement of the Odyssey was going to play here
Theory: Chief couldn’t do the warthog run because Alpha Nine were doing their own in New Mombasa. There’s only so much badass the universe can take
That was gay
That was gay
1:56 I lost it at that sliding grunt
So this is why High Charity felt so damn short...
Having a warthog run should of been a tradition, and this one was amazing, especially the part with the brutes charging into the juggernaut flood
I’m surprised you got this working nice job like always!
2:42 The fact that the brutes said "Unholy Beast" tells me that a few Halo Lore fans will be diving into this.
Also 3:01 Grunts are being brave O.o?
The grunts do occasionally say that in the normal game. Any Grunt that calls Master Chief "sissy" has got a pair of cold, stainless steel balls. That will probably be splattered all over the floor when Chief is done with them.
They probably call the flood forms that because they are the spawn of corrupted remains of the precursors
@@slinkerdeer the covenant didnt know that. AFAIK No species knows that in canon
3:03 grunt calls chief a “sissy” very brave last words before he got ran over by a sissy in a warthog
Press F to pay respects.
Damn..that is amazing! I especially loved the intro
Dude when I saw the ending of the run its like reliving the game *Brakes out my box of tissues
WOW! Thats amazing. This is really well done.
was all this audio cut? some of it sounds familiar but ive never heard most of it before
The "I can't control her, Pelican Down" line(s) is from the level "Trident/Citadel" from Halo 3 right in the beginning
@@harmonictie5844 Yes but the it's the flood was new.
Obviously
@@harmonictie5844 i wanna know where that dialogue came from as well, "the flood" not "pelican down".
@@Augmental_Art I think it was some scarcely used alternative audio, cant remember from h3 or h2, there are so many damn sounds in halo games
2:53 When Master Chief is taking Cortana from the back
Why would you say that
._.
As much as I love Halo 3’s warthog run, this is a way cooler.
This was really cool to watch. I only wish it could have made it into the final game. Thanks for sharing this gem with us
Spread the word. With Halo 2 on pc we can add all the cut content. We need to start by finishing the first Demo mission. We also need to make a mission where Rtas (aided by unngoy of all ranks, a couple hunters, Sangheili minors, majors, ultras, and spec ops sangheili) retakes his Covenant cruiser (facing jackals, yanme, brute minors, majors, captains, and honor guards). We also need a mission where you play as Sergeant Johnson and fight with Miranda Keyes and marines against the flood, sentinels, and brute-led Covenant forces.
Extra descriptive details:
The Rtas mission should include heavy weapons fuel rod unngoy on your team for a change. The elite minors (3) and majors (2) should have plasma rifles, needlers, and carbines. You should also have a spec ops elite with an energy sword, an ultra elite with a needler, and a spec ops elite with a carbine on your side. One of the majors should have dual plasma rifles. The brutes should have brute plasma rifles, carbines, shot guns, and brute shots as their main weapons. For a change, some jackal majors should be armed with brute plasma rifles, some yanme should get brute plasma rifles, one brute major should have a beam rifle, and at least one brute captain/honor guard should have a fuel rod gun.
For the Johnson mission. Marines should have a mix of submachine guns, shot guns, pistols, sniper rifles, and battle rifles as weapons. You should get 6-8 Marines to fight with and the brutes should be a mix of minors, majors, and captains. The brutes should be armed with plasma rifles, carbines, brute shots, and needlers for a change. These covenant forces will also include jackals, jackal snipers, unngoy, and yanme. They will also fight flood and sentinels forces for a good scrap. Player 2 gets to be Miranda in co-op mode and this mission is a prequel to Quarantine Zone ending so it will be a infantry based mission with a map that looks similar to the Sacred Icon.
looks boring tbh
@@ddsjgvk To each his own. But most Halo fans love Halo 2 and see it as something truly special. Its the most common favorite for hardcore fans But, everyone has their own tastes and nothing is for everyone.
@@ddsjgvk Hell no i would love to play that.
@@billclark5055 since I read the books I wish the modding community would make missions for all those battles described there which doesn't appear in the games, like what you said, and halo CE would get the battle of the ODST vs the Covenant for that hill where the UNSC would establish a base in the halo ring, told in the Halo: The Flood book, now that would be fucking awesome
Watch you're videos everyday, best video in a while so good man
This feels so right. It completes the original trilogy so perfectly. Especially if you think about the fact that the first game did a Warthog run through a human ship, the second game's would have been through a covenant ship, and the third is through a forerunner structure. Thematically, I think that arc is just perfect for the trilogy. :D
I like how this one looks with the ship, it’s a way different vibe than the other runs
I want a Halo spin off where you play a sangheili, and at the end there's a ghost run. Maybe even to shake the formula a bit, a ghost chase with ennemies trying to gun you down in their own vehicles while you try to escape.
This is one of your best videos in a long time general
Hey man just saw this! Great that you’re still out here! When I was young my cousins, friends and I would all watch your videos to find skulls and secrets in the halo series. Keep going in life wish you well
Halo 2 special edition re-release.
This is new canon.
Or should be
It's my head canon now
YEP was thinking the same! We need the proper earth level from the original demo, and this warthog run added in a remaster, and I would not even be mad.
Perhaps this could be added in Halo 2 MCC PC.
@@SameBasicRiff And the covenant ship level that was replaced by the durian bomb; the chief was supposed to fly from the station to the ship's hull, fight his way inside, presumably via a pulse laser turret maintenance duct and blow up the ship from within, as yet another reference to Marathon, this time a similarly (this time partially) cut idea from the Marathon Infinity maps Naw Man He's Close, Foe Hammer and Hang Brain. That is why the chief doesn't have the bomb in the teaser trailer. As for the rest of Earth being on fire in the trailer, I'm not sure why that was changed, as I'm not sure if they added the significance of New Mombasa being over the ARK portal (or the ARK itself, as it was originally intended to be) later on for Halo 3 and ODST.
@@lionocyborg6030 ahh yes. and good catch on the earth burning thing. An invasion even on half the scale of reach would have been so cool. Probably a time/ tech issue with that one.
What an amazing thing blackdimund has done! I had no idea there was a missing hog run, or that it was being fixed. Thank you general heed for this video.
Your intro music is the Windows 2000 startup sound or the Windows ME startup, they are both the same.
This would've been amazing if they actually put this in the game.
This would be my favorite level!
BulgaroSlav Can someone not have their own opinion without someone like you bashing on them for it?
@BulgaroSlav did you know people can have their own opinions?
The Halo CE warthog run was amazing. This looks inferior in every way and would have been a terrible way to follow it up. Thank god it got cut
@BulgaroSlav Okay so, I haven't seen your comment and I've recently just saw it right now.
It's not that, I just really like the design of High Charity and the Covenant, it would be cool if there was an Covenant version of the Warthog Run honestly m
Please don't childishly say that I'm insane for having an opinion, I hope you'll have a good day just like you
@@DickChimney There's no telling what was the true one, this was cut and they're using what they have and think.
They didn't have enough time to finish up.
2:41 HOLY BEAST lol that’s crazy that whole juggernaut confrontation like a damn movie scene
WELCOME BACK General Head I haven't seen you for A year
Notifications actually worked🔥
Its interesting, but defiantly would have needed a few touch ups.
The entire scene is untextured minus NPCs/Vehicles.. pretty common to find untextured maps, especially in old game files.. overall would just need someone to texture it, which is a lot more work than it sounds lmao
It looks really cool still though
2:49 That poor Jackal never stop a chance.
Man i fucking love you thanks for this video it was awesome to see something like this love halo love your channel i hope you never stop suprising with your videos!
"And so when we were making the soundtrack for halo 2, we wanted to spice up what we already had. So we added a couple more wah-wah-wahs with the guitar in it*
Thumbnail:
*Juggernaught be like*
*BUTCH YOU AINT GONNA NOWHERE*
Doing this on legendary would have been a pain. Sniper Jackals, Rocket Launcher Flood, Brutes with Brute Shots, Drones. I can already hear myself cussing and yelling and dying a thousand times.
Level would require more luck than driving skills, to be honest. lol
1:05 Holy Crap! Even halo 3 dialogue from the level The Covenant fits perfectly for that kind of scenario....
But holy, that was actually terrifying!
Every time I play a warthog run I always have the song “sliver” by nirvana playing in my head lol
You did a video in this a while back, but it wasn't very interesting. Glad to really see this map in depth now, thanks!!
You are a good spartan, thank you.
That’s dope, also I did see that giant flood thing in the run
2:03 "This facility feeds energy to the Eclipse Cannon. Move along."
Well, this is still extremely impressive despite not being totally authentic looking. For one person or even two or three to have pulled that off is pretty amazing. :)
P.s. love the incorporation of the cut flood creater who's name I can't remember suddenly.. Crap.. lol
That is a Flood Juggernaut. Extremely high health, large size, good speed, and can kill you in 2 or 3 hits on Easy. I wish it wasn't cut from the game, but most people would have had significant difficulty beating it. I think it would have appeared a couple times, one of them being on foot.
1:55 LOL That Grunt running away is perfect!
This gave me feels I haven't felt in years... Thanks to you and the mod creator for this
Just needs some "Running in the 90s" music, then it will be fully restored
Robert the Dude That's a sin. Halo 2 guitar theme is supreme and innate of Halo 2. How dare you say RIT90s would be better? shame on you.
Wow. I can only imagine. Someone needs to get a team together and remaster halo 2. Like what SPV3 did. Make it like how Bungie originally wanted. Can you imagine levels like delta halo that had so much unused space, now completely full of encounters or free roaming objectives.
Stop making me salivate.
with mod support people will finally want to do modding projects on it, because halo 2 was known to be notoriously hard to work with.
It would be a dream come true.
Halo 2 Firefight? 💚
Don't guess it will ever happen tho. Halo 2 uses ducktape to work, lol
@@GhostSlay3r better yet. FLOOD FIREFIGHT!
Reach has a covenant firefight, so why can't we have a fully customizable Flood one?
@@zd_5907 Wait for summer, then you will see a Flood Firefight x)
That intro to the warthog run was fucking bad ass.
Man, now you got me thinking of a Halo 2 version of the Warthog run track from Halo 3
When Halo 2 comes out on PC with MCC, this coud be made into an actual custom mission that could be played by millions. I feel like a lot of the cut Halo 2 content may end up finally being realized after all these years when that happens.
Or the mission where chief almost ended the war early and almost killed truth, but of all things to stop him the true demon itself A FUCKING JACKAL SNIPER.
"Only works for halo 2 pc"
Mcc: hold my collection
This was amazingly done! I tried doing this on the Xbox version a while back but couldn't even get the map to load after "enabling" that BSP. The PC map editor probably made things a lot easier. The juggernaut spawns and moving parts were great additions, and the crashing pelican with audio blew me away. 10/10.
amazing work!
So this would be after the Tatarus boss battle.
*Halo 2 Jackal Snipers exist*
Me: I fear no man, but that thing... it scares me.
Just imagine if they're in the warthog run
@@znspyder brings a new meaning to the song "Blow Me Away"
The mjolnir mix is one of my most favorite music / song in halo 2 in my opinion
Gotta admit, the pelican crashing was sad but epic for some reason.
1:02 to 1:12 had me fucking rollinggggg lmao
I've always been confused how Keyes told the master chief that the capture of a shipboard AI was not acceptable or something, but then he goes and leaves cortana on high charity? The capital of the covenant and being overrun by flood? I know it was a "leave me and save yourself" situation, but the chief strikes me as someone who would rather keep cortana safe and find another way out than just leaving her to save his own skin, even if it was to board a ship going to earth.
This was a standing order to prevent the discovery of Earth. After they stumbled across it, the order was moot. Much like random slipspace jumps.
RAsplez 98 its prolly because cortana had a bomb right next to her just incase the covenant got too close. she couldnt have anticipated that the gravemind could do the things it did to her
Cole Protocol was basically obsolete the moment The Profet of Regret's fleet found Earth at the start of Halo 2.
Earth had already been discovered.
@@sharkfacemlg but I'm sure there were so many other colonies safe from the prying eyes of the covenant. Earth may give them the jewel, but capturing an AI would provide you with the entire crown.
Dude the warthog stronger than two lego plates stuck together
This is amazing mate, Black 💎 ty so much
Love to see this remastered, too bad it was cut.
That one big flood form was really interesting looking, was it apart of the mod or something already in game files that we didn't see in game?
That was the flood juggernaut, a cut Flood form that is still on the disk. It has full movement and attack animations, but has no death animation.
Rip to the pelican pilot for dropping us the warthog
No way. That is dang amazing. Great work
It would be really nice if 343 were to restore cut content for the MCC
Hello there
Nah 343 has mismanaged the franchise so badly, you would think they were Disney or something
Would've loved a Warthog run on Halo 2, but that would just make it kind of redundant. Putting in 3 Warthog runs in a row at the last level in the first 3 games.
Yeah, I'm somehow glad they did it, that only made 3's Warthog Run so much better.
This surprisingly explains more than I was expecting and makes the sense of the ending.
Phenomenal job. You even got the Juggernaut in there
Now we wait for modders to remake the e3 demo. However long that would take XD
holy fuck yes
I would pay for a remastered, alternative version for mcc on pc
dude the way the pelican smashes into the beam and the warthog flies off and smashes into the column looks so cinematic and bungielike its almost like they made it
With the Halo 2 theme playing makes it even more awesome like damn!
Don't make a girl a promise
If u know you can't keep it
Sad reacts only
Never knew that was a line they planned to add in Halo 2. Of course we heard this line in Halo 3.
I always do that
@@TechnoLodge If you had played Halo 2, you would have realized that, that line was in Halo 2 right after chief boards the dreadnought.
@@TechnoLodge it was in halo 2 mate.
Honestly, this is really great work by whoever did this. However, the mission itself just doesn't look even remotely fun as far as a warthog driving sequence. It plays really clunky on a story level though this is perfect.
