I personally would like to hear Craig mentioned as a tribute to all the memes he spawned. When you kill a Brute in the presence of another, the other Brute could say, “Arrrrgh! You killed Craig!”
will you take the boof?
Some provocative ones. Bungie’s games had a lot of those and they gave the marines a lot of personality.
“I got your wort wort wort right here!”
More grunt dialogue. One of my favorite moments of 3 and 5.
I’d love to see some classic ones return. Halo 2 and 3 were filled with hilarious ones.
“I’ve taken a GRIIEEEEVOUS WOOOUUUUND!” (Halo 2, shooting friendly Elite)
“Really, I’m not going to kiss you in front of everyone!” (Halo 2 Elite being stared at)
“If I find out you have X-ray vision, you’re dead.” (Halo 2, female marine being stared at)
“Either kiss me or go away.” (Halo 3, male marine being stared at)
“Every pack brother for himself!” “He was my lover!” (Halo 3, Brute after you kill a Brute)
“No nononononono getitoffgetitoffgetitoff OH GOOOOOOOODDD!” (Halo 3 Brute getting stuck with a grenade)
“Da-da-dadaaaaa, da-da-dadaaaaa, da-da-dadaaaaa da-da-dadaaaaaaaaaaa!” (Halo 3 Grunt going suicide (singing Halo theme))
“Master Chief Laser, online.” (Halo Reach, Master Chief voice when pulling out Spartan Laser)
There are so many it’s ridiculous.
If we get marines npc, i would like to get again the following:
Chief : _proceed to take marine gun_
Also chief : _give back same weapon to marine_
Marine : Wh-What? Is there something wrong with it?
(Grunt, ODST): “I found the saboteur! He’s eating a croissant, with a little bit of jambon!”
(Grunt when stuck, H3): “NOT AGAIN!?”
(Brute when getting into cover, ODST): “Huddle close… No inappropriate touching…”
(Marine when shot at, H3): “I’m sorry, did you mean to suck?”
Stop, you’re going to make me watch those IWHBYD quote compilation videos on youtube again D:
There has to be some kind of mention to do with pizza!
I love the ones from Halo 3, especially the grunt murmuring to itself in its sleep saying “First of Rukt…Merry Christmas”.
i like to see more enemy’s quotes if there get stuckt by a plasma grenate or spike grenate.
or this: Halo 3 brute ( He is my Lover) if you kill a other brute close to him that was also fun.
The entire Bee Movie script.
When a grunt gets thrown with a sticky grenade
Grunt: Team rocket blasts off again!!
Anything related to grunts and their infusions would be hilarious to hear again.
I think some rare idle dialogue commenting on the reverted art style and general series direction would be really funny and apt. Fun half fourth wall breaks that don’t completely break immersion but provide some humorous nods for longtime fans. Along the lines of:
Grunts:
"Sometimes I forget how to speak English."
“Wow, Ynub-Ynar! I haven’t seen a methane pack like that since we invaded Reach!”
“Does anyone else think the Demon looks… Younger all the sudden?”
Elites:
"I’m glad we all decided to go back on that diet."
“My mandibles feel proportionate!”
“Awabaghabagah!!! Er, excuse me! I had something in my throat.”
Brutes:
“We serve Atriox’s will! We shave!”
“The Demon will fear our placid demeanors! Craig, lead the pack!”
“Gormkan! Your fangs are looking great-- did you get braces for that underbite?”
Of course these in addition to the regular fun stuff detailed above. I just think winking at the art direction change could be a fun avenue.
Boom, headshot!
I want a marine to quote a line from Tombstone. Literally, any line.
If you throw a grenade or some type of explosive at a bunch of fusion coils, a marine say something like “that was huuyge, beautiful, magnificent, the best” in their best Trump accent.
If a marine gets in the warthog with you, he sings On The Road Again by Willie Nelson.
There’s only one line of IWHBYD dialogue that matters to me. As such, I will be deeply saddened if it doesn’t return for the second main Halo game in a row.
“Why don’t you just take a picture? it lasts longer. Hah, didn’t expect to hear that one again, did ya?”
A reference to how the chief and arby just ended with the covenant and the flood in halo 3
I mean every enemy is old enough to remember master chief as the demon.
If a marine begins to fire a spartan lazer, they should shout: “IMA FIRIN’ MAH LAZAR”
