Well, to start off I don’t know if this is the right place to say these things but I will still go ahead and write this down.
I have an idea that involves a somewhat machinima in Warzone Firefight.
The plan is to make the Halo Spartans available on the game to face the Covenant in many waves of enemies. This includes them beating at least one Grunt Goblin together.
Of course, as Halo 5 has Promethean units as well, then at certain point the battle must involve them including an epic battle against the Warden Eternal.
This is made to make a tribute to the Halo story.
This is a hard task for me alone, even for a full pack of eight players, that’s why I would like to request some help from the community.
By saying “Halo Spartans available”, I meant the Spartans that we can pseudo-play as in MP and Warzone.
So far we got:
Blue Team
Fireteam Osiris
Red Team (or at least one of them)
Noble Team
Arbiter (Spartan form)
ODST (Nightfall)
Fotus (Forerunner weaponry)
So to begin with, I’d need the help of enough people to make this up, maybe 3 people or if possible 7 (8 including me).
We would use the Spartans’ corresponding armour sets and colors as well as using their trademark weapons. The only weapon most would share is a default Magnum except Vale, Red Team, the Rookie (if we call the ODST that way), Arbiter and the Fotus Spartan.
I’d need the most people to work with this, and we would not do quite much aside of fighting enemy hordes in Warzone Firefight. Maps may vary of course, but there will be certain moments in which all Spartans will find each other (here’s when editing magic comes though), part I can do by myself.
The main requirements would be:
- Mic.
- Time to play of course.
- The most armor sets possible.
- Have as much weapons as possible, depending on the character you want to play as.
- Must not have a weapon skin for loadout weapons during gameplay (eg. AR, DMR, etc.)
- Avoid using any power-ups aside of those given by certain Mythic weapons. Examples include Kelly and Jorge.
- Always use the corresponding weapon and avoid picking others.
That last point is what makes things harderd. It may be tough as weapons have very limited ammo and some are hard to get (eg. Sniper Rifles at level 6), but we can discuss that bit later. In some cases they use primarly Loadout weapons (eg. Carter, John), in others they use power weapons that can be found in the battlefield as well (eg. Vale, Arbiter), so hard cases are Linda, Jerome and Jorge, for example.
That being said, the weapons used would be these, though any Halo fan would already know:
Blue Team:
Master Chief. Assault Rifle (Extended mag)
Frederic. DMR (Default)
Linda. Sniper Rifle (Nornfang)
Kelly. Shotgun (Oathsworn)
Fireteam Osiris:
Locke. Battle Rifle (default)
Vale. SMG (default) and Plasma Pistol (default)
Buck: Shotgun (default) and possibly the Whispered Truth pistol as seen briefly on campaign.
Tanaka. DMR (default)
Red Team:
Alice. Chaingun Turret (default). SMG (projection)
Douglas. Rocket Launcher (default or EM) or Shotgun (default) as seen in cinematics. SMG (projection)
Jerome. Spartan Laser (default or Endgame). SMG (projection)
Noble Team:
Carter. DMR (default or Long Barrel)
Kat. Magnum (either variant except Tactical), I also recommend CE Pistol
Jun. Sniper Rifle (default)
Emile. Shotgun (default or Lawgiver)
Jorge. Chaingun Turret (Etilka, listed as Jorge’s Chaingun)
Noble 6. Assault Rifle (default) and possibly DMR (default)
ODST:
Rookie. SMG (recon suppressed) and Magnum (tactical)
Swords of Sanghelios:
Arbiter (Spartan). He’s got many options to be honest. The Carbine (default) must be first, but the second weapon might be one out of four. Storm Rifle (default), Brute Plasma Rifle (default), Plasma Pistol (default) or Energy Sword (default). Still not sure if using Prophet’s Bane is worth the try.
Forerunner:
Fotus Spartan. Any Promethean weapon, though the most used would be Light Rifle and Supressor, both default.
EDIT:
Forgot to mention Spartan Group Omega (HW2):
Leon. Energy Sword (default or Ravening Sliver)
Robert. Plasma Turret or Hunter Arm (Wicked Grasp)
August. Railgun (default or Arclight)
In interested, leave your gamertags and we may talk more about this in the game.
Again, I’m not even sure if this is the correct place to post this.
