@@white_apollo it would be good if they saw this. it might remind them of how they used to be and how far off the rail their content has gone especially when it comes to writing and making everything so dang serious
The pacing might be slow but the writing has such charm. It reminds me of the charm that RVB's early writing had. Very interested in seeing what's next.
@@blazingb00mrang I like it. Kinda gives a slow, easy-listening vibe. Matches with the voices mostly being similar level-headed tones. And I'm pretty happy that it ends with a very light joke with the kind of music you can drift off to. All of which to say, we all know what you mean when you say RT inspired you, but you have mat this your own. Well done
A lot of the times "This is extremely similar to ____" usually isn't good, but this being SO close to Red Vs Blue is so cool. It feels like any moment now Tucker, Grif, Caboose, etc will just turn the corner and go "What are you two arguing about"
“Yes, I am lying. Come out where I can see you!” “…yeah he’s full of shit” If that isn’t a RVB worthy line, I don’t know what is. I look forward to seeing the rest!
What a great love letter/spiritual successor to RvB. Can't believe I stumble across something this good when it's so unknown! Only 100 subs? 700 views? It's always a gamble when you click on a video like that. I definitely won the low view roulette today! Good characters, writing, and acting? Ya love to see it! Can't wait to see where the story goes! Looking forward to episode 2, however long production takes! I usually don't bother to leave comments, but I just had to here in the hopes it helps push this through the algorithm haha
Thank you! Really glad you enjoyed it! These things are deceptive with how much work they take so we're starting work on episode 2. Most of the VAs have already sent in their lines (some have even gotten 3 done) so hopefully well have it out this time next month, maybe a bit sooner if we're lucky and I no-life it again. Thanks a bunch for the comment! Means the world to have such kind and awesome people be so encouraging!
@@blazingb00mrangI literally just stumbled into this and thought this from Rooster Teeth XD. Amazing work man, i really miss what made RvB so good and enjoyable
This is actually a breath of fresh air from the Rooster Teeth show. I’m totally digging this laidback tone, barely any music, and the softer voices of the characters. Keep this going for more episodes, I really think you got something special brewing up here!
Is RvB still going? I tried to like zero (i think thats what it was called) and although i thought the VA's did a good job, it didnt feel like RvB. it felt like some generic rip off. I knew it would come eventually but damn it hit hard that the RvB most of us grew up with was gone.
The voice filters, the music, the whack humor, the internal complaining between the members, the camera angles... this is unbelievable production quality for a first episode! I feel like this is going to pop off, so I'm happy to be part of the first 3K subs
Crash is the Semi-Serious But Smart Guy, Peanut is the "How did you get on this team?, Hell How did you get in the Army?" Guy, Duke Gives of "I Dont want to be here" Vibes, Pops Gives off "Veteran Dealing with Soldiers who barely have any Experience in their field" Vibes, Target is the New Guy and Izzy is the Serious but Light hearted Soldier
14k views!!? 1.8k Subs!? 2k Likes!? You guys are fuckin' nuts! Thank you so much. The support you've shown us is staggering and very humbling. This has blown up faster than I could have dreamed! Thank you all so much for all the comments and feedback. We hope to get next episode out to you all this time next month.

Stay tuned and once again -thank you so much ❤️
Wait this is a newly made Machinima ? I though this was a reupload of a series that was made years ago. I will not lie I am excited to see machinima stiff again, this was a well written and great video. Solid voice acting to.
I love how these characters have kinda represent the old rvb people but with their own twist. I cant wait to have a good halo 3 machinima after so long.
I love that Halo 3 is still alive and kicking. The H3/HR era truly was the golden age for machinima, and it's nice to see someone keeping it alive. Especially with writing this good
For once TH-cam gave me a good recommendation, this is a fantastic love letter to RvB and I love the character writing and the humor. Really excited to see where this goes and hopefully get more views cause you've definitely got something here.
Man, I love how grounded the characters feel. None of the characters feel too exaggerated which does wonders for the humor and dialogue, and I really like how everybody is able to carry the story forward in their own way.
I started this completely intending to watch like maybe 5 minutes and say "ah well, nice to see machinimation back at it again" but i'll be honest I sat through the whole damn thing because I honestly enjoyed it. The jokes were good, the writing was alright and the pacing pretty good. I usually get bored since most people tend to drag out bits, but y'all kept it long enough to get the details in but short enough it wasn't boring. Very clever use of camera work as well, its obvious a lot of thought and effort went into this. Truly, a damn good job on it!
Immaculate vibes, fantastic production. The writing and acting made it so fun to watch. You NAILED the RvB nod. Thanks so much for the awesome work! Looking forward to seeing more!
"Because, unlike you and Peanut, I do not need a drip feed of adrenaline to keep me from taking a toaster bath" LOL!! I'm dying at 5:27 I'm already so hooked on this show and the characters, can't wait to see more!
Nice slow burn. Really nails the mundanity of the peacetime Army aesthetic. They may be wearing big metal hunks of armor in the future but, men will always be the same. Teasing eachother endlessly to stave off time, the dark humor and dumb conversations, the dumb new guy, timelines getting moved to the left just because, the "fuck it, send it" vibes everyone gives off so they can go home early. Good times. Can't wait to see more! Also, I don't know if you guys have ever seen Spriggs but this totally gave me flashbacks to that machinima lol.
I truly think this’ll go far, in a TH-cam scene where machinima was doomed by corporatization and left behind it is a sight for sore eyes to see this. You have a very reaching testimony and have produced a amazing start and I will definitely be following along with it. Here’s to Crash 👍
I’m not one to have blind faith in something, but this was the first machinima I’ve seen in a while to give me the exact same feeling RVB did starting out. I’m looking forward to Episode 2 once it releases. I’m rooting for your success‼️‼️
This felt like catching up with a friend who you haven't seen in years.Thank you so much and make more please. Don't rush this series out either take your time you're not roosterteeth with hundreds of employees even if it means it'll be months before the next episode I'll be there for it. God speed friend
Thanks. Sometimes I say "we" in the comments. But apart from voice acting and some script editing. I do the writing, animating, filming, editing, etc. I can't really rush things without making the quality suffer tremendously. So taking my time is kind of a requirement :) but thank you. Ill be sure to take my time and try my best to make each episode the best I can
Had my doubts, my brother reccomended this to me as a "successor to RvB" in my head, that has a 1/1000 chance of being good. Well can I say that this is in fact that 1/1000'th chance. Amazing job guys, absolutely stellar 👍🌠.
Already loving the characters, the writing, the way the scenes are shot, amazing! I loved when the Sammie was talking shit back to them! Can't wait for more episodes because if this is just episode 1 I'm sure what you have in store will knock it out of the park
Thanks! Episode one was a long one because it kind of had to be. The next episode will be I think 17 - 22 minutes. And they should be out around once a month
@idrinkdiesel8451 would love to be able to make them that often. But seeing as Im the only one who does the writing, animating, filming, editing, etc its a really hard balance to do all that and still have a job and a family lol
35 minutes of pure magic is all I can say about this, it feels so brand new yet so familiar. I can't wait to watch the other episodes, I got EP3 on my recommended, saw the first 5ish minutes and immediately knew it was worth watching from the start.
This is just a delightful thing, the jokes are funny and the dynamic of the characters is already an absolute pleasure to watch! I'm glad I saw this in my recommendations and thought "Why not?"
"No. Shoo. Go away, Red Man." Okay I love this already~ Also the implications of the text that was flying across the screen from the security feeds are pretty interesting initial hooks hidden in plain sight! Really excited to see where things go in the future with this project!
….I came in on the perfect timing… RvB vibes are strong, comedy is there, nostalgia is in Uber drive, incredible job man Edit: please do a Blood Gulch episode eventually I want a nostalgia overload
Here's hoping your channel grows into a grassroots media empire over the course of fifteen years before a long series of abysmal managerial decisions and employee drama sees your company sold to the highest bidder for twenty dollars and a candy necklace while you flee the country.
I'll be honest, it didn't take long to impress me, the production value is stellar! Love to see another quality Halo Machinima, and I'm looking forward to seeing where this series goes 😊
Feels like early red vs blue but if the whole cast were actually just a random normal(ish) grunt squad out in the middle of nowhere. I like how... the word for it isnt "slow" but maybe lower paced compared to RvB. It feels more like people having conversations than characters being written to have constant funny banter. The humor is more "your competent-but-still-low level coworkers are shooting the shit" and I appreciate that vibe. So far so good! Great first episode.
Hey man, I just wanted to say that I was searching through TH-cam to find a good Machinima series and just stumbled across this one. I'm only a couple minutes into it and loving the banter so far! 😂
Fun fact: the opening theme used here is called "Fresh Twist" 👀 Super glad you liked it. We'll be working on episode two after a few days of rest, these episodes are deceptively difficult to make. Be sure to share it with friends who are into these kinds of things!
Wow, with all the fans of RvB here, you could prob get a whole army to volunteer for parts, I know I sure would! Also, this is fantastic, I loved every second of it, I hope you make a whole series out of this!
I just now realized that Duke brilliantly recontextualized RVB's "Why are we here?" quote with just a little bit of pronunciation. RVB's "Why are we here?" was basically a sum-up of the whole premise. "What are we even accomplishing in this supposed war by being stuck in this closed space in the middle of nowhere?" Crash does the exact same thing with, "Why are WE out HERE?" which basically translates to, "Why are WE, a special forces team, doing the UNSC equivalent to janitor work, instead of what we're known for?" You know right away these guys fell from a high point just from that one well-phrased question. Genius. And from there, more info is trickled in through Crash and Duke's exchange. ORGANIC exposition, at that. Like Frodo informing Gandalf that he's become a "disturber of the peace". I swear, RVB walked so this series could sprint.
Well, well, well now, what have we here, a top quality halo machinima reminiscent of days past with a promising premise and future? I am eager to see more.
I love how Pops just runs with Pendleton's new nickname. Dude's probably been through this too many times too even care about questioning it. Def my favorite character so far
You! My friend, has just earned yourself another subscriber! This is the PERFECT love letter to all the fans who loved RvB during Rooster Teeth's Golden Years. Keep it up man, you do The Lord's WORK!
Reminds me of the good old machinima days. Back when Red Vs Blue was good and when the Battlefront 2 A Clone Apart Series was still around. I miss those days and wish people would practice those old formats and styles and remained faithful to them. Good days.
I'm a few minutes in (I discovered this a few seconds ago) and I'm taken back to the good old RVB days! The writing is golden, this feels so close to RVB that I got nostalgic for that time when it was them in Blood Gulch. And all they're doing is standing around and talking! Keep up the outstanding work! I'm excited to see the rest of this show! 🤩
The writing and pacing are bad, but they're bad in exactly the way '00s machinima was, and I so deeply respect that. Like, I can feel the effort that went into flaunting the basic rules of scriptwriting in order to accomplish the vibe, and the vibe is impeccable.
This show actually helped me from panic or having stress this is what I needed I hope we can watch more of this it felt red vs blue but different it’s little bit more serious and bit silly
We just hit 200k
This is absolutely insane
Thank you all so much for the incredible support
More CRASH is on the way!
Yeah!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
congrats

The charm of RvB is written all over this and I love it.
Yes
"Insurgency work, that's where the fun is"
Said by no military personnel at any point in space or time
0:52 I heard "why are we out here" and my brain autocompleted with "it's one of life's great mysteries"
Nah.. I think it kinda looks like a puma.
What I say about making up animals?!
And what animal, has tusks?
"My name is Michael J Caboose, and I hate taxes!!"
"I thought they stopped making those years ago. It's powered by a dumb AI..."
"F*** YOU, SAY IT TO MY FACE"
I'm gonna love this series 🤣

The pacing might be slow but the writing has such charm. It reminds me of the charm that RVB's early writing had. Very interested in seeing what's next.
Slow and deliberate, but charming, silly, and relaxed is a go-to vibe I'm aiming for. There will be time for drama later. Right now we're chillin' B)

@@Sonicfalcon16 Fast needs to be earned. Life is slow. Action is fast.
A lot of the times "This is extremely similar to ____" usually isn't good, but this being SO close to Red Vs Blue is so cool. It feels like any moment now Tucker, Grif, Caboose, etc will just turn the corner and go "What are you two arguing about"
Can we have some Mini Haloo ice cream jokes too?
I just want to see a spike grenade hit the wall in front of them. “What the hell?” Then right before it goes off you hear Caboose say “Tucker did it!”
I think playing armor details really helped making it stand out
“Yes, I am lying. Come out where I can see you!”
“…yeah he’s full of shit”
If that isn’t a RVB worthy line, I don’t know what is. I look forward to seeing the rest!
So happy this was the top comment because I was about to quote this in the comments as soon as it happened lmfao

oh wow didn’t know Halo people were still doing this- love the Halo community!!
This Is amazing, it's like RvB, but then you give it an unique twist. It's amazing and can't wait for more
Fun fact: the opening theme used here is called "Fresh Twist" 👀
Super glad you liked it. We'll be working on episode two after a few days of rest, these episodes are deceptively difficult to make. Be sure to share it with friends who are into these kinds of things!
Wow, with all the fans of RvB here, you could prob get a whole army to volunteer for parts, I know I sure would!
Also, this is fantastic, I loved every second of it, I hope you make a whole series out of this!
Damn didn't know people were still making Halo Machinimas. This is pretty awesome.
I just now realized that Duke brilliantly recontextualized RVB's "Why are we here?" quote with just a little bit of pronunciation.
RVB's "Why are we here?" was basically a sum-up of the whole premise. "What are we even accomplishing in this supposed war by being stuck in this closed space in the middle of nowhere?"
Crash does the exact same thing with, "Why are WE out HERE?" which basically translates to, "Why are WE, a special forces team, doing the UNSC equivalent to janitor work, instead of what we're known for?"
You know right away these guys fell from a high point just from that one well-phrased question. Genius.
And from there, more info is trickled in through Crash and Duke's exchange. ORGANIC exposition, at that. Like Frodo informing Gandalf that he's become a "disturber of the peace".
I swear, RVB walked so this series could sprint.
Instant sub upon hearing the Battlefield Bad Company surf radio music in the beginning.
Mad respect to those who know what's up.
The dialogue is actually incredible. Can't wait to watch the rest
Well, well, well now, what have we here, a top quality halo machinima reminiscent of days past with a promising premise and future? I am eager to see more.
Just want to say color coating the subtitles was a really nice touch that kept me engaged.
It’s a shame a machinima makers died 10 years ago.
I’m grateful for RvB and this series
I love how Pops just runs with Pendleton's new nickname. Dude's probably been through this too many times too even care about questioning it.
Def my favorite character so far
You! My friend, has just earned yourself another subscriber! This is the PERFECT love letter to all the fans who loved RvB during Rooster Teeth's Golden Years. Keep it up man, you do The Lord's WORK!
Wow, thank you! It aint much but it's honest work.
Reminds me of the good old machinima days. Back when Red Vs Blue was good and when the Battlefront 2 A Clone Apart Series was still around. I miss those days and wish people would practice those old formats and styles and remained faithful to them. Good days.
I'm a few minutes in (I discovered this a few seconds ago) and I'm taken back to the good old RVB days! The writing is golden, this feels so close to RVB that I got nostalgic for that time when it was them in Blood Gulch.
And all they're doing is standing around and talking! Keep up the outstanding work! I'm excited to see the rest of this show! 🤩
This looks like the return of old school machinima, finally. Some good content. I hope this will inspire more machinimas to reappear again
"That jenny says quam"
What a poet 😂
Sooo proud of how this project turned out! You're so talented - more videos please! 🙏
Thank you! More on the way, as you wish 😊
The writing and pacing are bad, but they're bad in exactly the way '00s machinima was, and I so deeply respect that. Like, I can feel the effort that went into flaunting the basic rules of scriptwriting in order to accomplish the vibe, and the vibe is impeccable.
RIP Max ♥
This is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed! Hope you check out the rest of the series
Watching Crash from the start again so I get the full experience for episode 6!
This was on my recommended after I binged all of RvB and OMG it’s amazing
This has a RvB flavor to it but it also feels like it's own comedy. I want to see more.
I’m glad that this ended up in my recommended list. The writing feels so much like classic Red vs Blue.
This show starts on a play of the original “Why are we here” joke and I fucking love it. Instant subscribe!
I don't know why this popped up in my recommended videos, but I'm glad I did.
“Why are we even out here?”
has massive
“You ever wonder why we’re here?”
energy
I've been sitting here watching this and only now have I realized this is 35 minutes long. Awesome stuff
Ah, this vid takes me back to the old days of RVB. Nice to see that someone managed to capture that feeling.
This show actually helped me from panic or having stress this is what I needed I hope we can watch more of this it felt red vs blue but different it’s little bit more serious and bit silly
What a pleasant surprise to see a Halo 3 Machinima in 2023. Put a smile on my face :)
22:17 Badass quote of 2023.
“CALL ME ALI-BABA. OPEN SESAME!” -Duke.
Best recommendation I’ve received to watch in awhile
God this makes me fell like a kid again. Watching RvB for the first time. Can't wait to see where it goes! Thanks Algore rhythm
This is great, the old days of machinima shines in this
This is the third time I watched this in two days it's great and really gives me the feeling when I first watch RVB
That turretshouting expletives is just beautiful.
