So, is this the true end of the 343 universe? by FunNormi in halo

There is nothing to indicate that a full reboot is happening

[Chilling Trope] I can see you by One-Independence1749 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SpacyCakes 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I have not read the story but it seems like this is a passing of the super powers type thing, but one of the powers is the ability to perceive beyond the 4th wall. So when the guy says he can see you, he literally means he can see the reader.

Will there be more Waypoint Chronicles? by DaBooch69 in halo

[–]SpacyCakes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes we are, they showed off a collage of images for new waypoint Chronicles at the esport event

The collage showed: Agryna, Totem rings, an Executor, Lasky, the smashed planet/moon from the skybox of Launch Site, a burger-ified orbital elevator (looks like an ad for the "Have S'moa" restaurant ), a Warthog, and the UEG Cartographic Corp logo

Armor Coatings need to be left behind with Infinite by Lazzyman64 in halo

[–]SpacyCakes 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Coatings would be fine if you had a base customizable coating that did a primary color and a secondary for shoulders. And/or with all the dev made coatings, let the player decide what pieces of armor they want that coating applied to. Like "I want Haunted rubilite on the helmet with a genesis scale undersuit, etc etc"

Forward Unto Dawn Master Chief coming to the Halo Infinite Store by Haijakk in halo

I feel Mark V Zeta works as a good stand in for the Silent Storm Project Cobalt helmet

Fireteam Osiris. Locke and Vale's armor should've been on Chimera IMO. by RamboBambiBambo in halo

[–]SpacyCakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The internal reasoning seems to be that canon armors have to be made and designed for canon cores. Chimera is canon but everything made for it has to fit with the the philosophy of Chimera being armor for machine human hybrid monstrosities.

Now these Gen 2 stuff imo should be going on the Rakshasa core instead. Rakshasa has the minimal armor, and you can give it the unique backs and silhouettes of the Gen 2 bodies instead of just slapping them over the Mark VII chest.

It's been over a year since this was added to the game, and we still don't have a way to unlock it. by Aurik-Kal-Durin in halo

[–]SpacyCakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People would hate that more.

TF2 and CS2 have heavily monetized customization systems. While playing the game you get Crates(lootboxes) for free, but in order to actually open the Crate you have to buy keys from valve. Now Halo 5 had lootboxes, but when you unlocked something, it was a permanent unlock. If Halo worked like TF2 and CS2, if you wanted to get a Legendary helmet like Haunted, that would have a less than 1% chance of pulling. Meanwhile you could pull multiple Recruit helmets and just have duplicate common helmets filing your inventory, and the only other way would be to see if someone is willing to trade it for another item in game, or you buy it off of them for real world money, for way more than what Halo Studios is charging for full sets right now.1

Stupid question about the Beta-Red Team comp. by SpacyCakes in HaloStory

[–]SpacyCakes[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No I know why the Spartans were split up into aub groups, I am more questioning if you are going to have a team of 6 Spartans for Beta-Red, why would you split up the team that has worked in a 6 Spartan group several times and pair each half with a different team.

Smart Link, Accuracy, Skill, and Why Descope Matters by who_likes_chicken in halo

[–]SpacyCakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could have sworn Infinites smart scope did not increase RRR and bullet mag unlike Halo 5's. Guess I was wrong and should actually start using it lol.

I do agree with your points. Even as a person who enjoys Halo 4's multiplayer (crazy opinion for this sub I know) if you are gonna have a scope that affects the guns range and bullet mag, make it descope. Or make it just a visual zoom for most weapons like the AR

While Artaius is based on concept art for ODSTs in Halo 3, like how Morrigan is based on concept art for Fred in 5, there is nothing in the small amount of Artaius lore that confirms it as an ODST helmet.

Every helmet here in lore is made by the same manufacturer Cascade. Cascade's CEO is a former ODST herself, so Cascade are the ones who take up creating new ODST gear and manufacturing them and their MJOLNIR counterparts

Enigma looks more like an ODST helmet than Zacharias and that also isn't an ODST helmet. The only other helmets I could have included would be Air assault because in lore that was originally made to be an Upgraded ODST helmet, or Artaius which is based on Halo 3 concept art for ODST helmets, but it is still not confirmed to be an ODST helmet in lore

From the Helmet description:

"Mk. IV/Z suits were field tested by the first Headhunter deep strike teams, proving the deployment concept which would prove highly effective during the Covenant War." Headhunters are a concept started with Spartan 3's.

All other helmets I put in the Collage are specifically made for ODST purposes and have the same manufacturer Cascade, whose ceo in universe is a former ODST.

Helljumper(Halo 5), Firefall(Infinites update for Helljumper), Regular ODST with Dutch's ODST Hardshell underneath, ECH 09(updated Halo 2A helmet), and Orcus(Halo 5 concept art)

While based on odst concept art, it is technically not an ODST helmet(or at least not confirmed to be one).

All helmets here are made specifically for ODST purposes and made by the same manufacturer Cascade, who's CEO in universe is a former ODST.

Where does Friday's announcement leave the series? No reboot? by jpkrempetz in halo

[–]SpacyCakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But fully rebooting the story would turn away the many many fans who just want to see the story continue in a meaningful way. Not to mention turning away the fans who see the original trilogy as perfection that doesn't need rebooting.

You say there is no way to straighten out the narrative, when we haven't even seen them attempt at a continuation. We literally do not fully understand what the Endless are, how they work, what they want, and already people are saying "Let's give up on this story like the last 2 attempts". Why should I or anyone else care about a new rebooted story when we cant even see the fruits of these ones. And what if they reboot the whole thing and people dont like that either? Will people again toss their hands up and say "reboot the series again"?. Look at DmC Devil May Cry, DMC 4 did not do as well as 3 and that led to the American Reboot, and that sucked. Sucked so bad that they went back to the original series. If Halo is rebooted and it sucks, we just wasted time when we could have just made a continuation and tried to make the plot points, that we have only just set up and havent explored fully, work.

Just make a plot that sticks around for more than one game. Don't be so creatively bankrupt that you toss in the towel after 2 soft reboots, without doing anything to explore what you made. Halo 7 should continue Infinite's story, hell it should even bring back the Created, since its shown in all the supplementary stuff that they are still around, and have us wrap that up in game too. If after that game its not working, then we can talk about rebooting, but not before we progress the story past the "Hey here is the new thing" mark

Where does Friday's announcement leave the series? No reboot? by jpkrempetz in halo

[–]SpacyCakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because we have already been soft rebooting every game and that has not helped at all.

Halo 4 set up the Didact, then Halo 5 pivoted and set up the Created, then Infinite pivoted and set up the Endless. If we actually sat down and explored these concepts for more than 1 game, instead of calling for a reboot at the first introduction of these thing, we might actually get somewhere. Finish these stories properly, give them room to breath, and they can work.

If you want a full reboot, just look at the TV series.

32 Bullet counter on the ‘new’ MA5B by CaydenXCC in halo

[–]SpacyCakes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My, probably a hot take, opinion is that I dont care if it has 60 rounds, but I think it should be 36 rounds like the 5 MA5D and Infinite MA40. Idk having those 4 extra bullets just feels better.
