Welcome to Halo General. Here we discuss the Halo games, expanded universe, and fan projects. Discussion of general Xbox developments, news, and games is also allowed unless stated otherwise.
I think the logic plague theory is kind of dumb but I have a feeling they will go down this route to try and retcon what they did to Cortana
Oliver Brown
If it's clearly in jest I guess this is acceptable. Drama in a generally is usually a sign it's dying, with nothing else to talk about, but I guess whirrrr will always be amusing.
Lucas Ross
Are dramaposters worse than 3babbies?
Alexander Fisher
theyre kaiposters so yes

Reminder to Post your gamertag, helmet, visor, and colors if you want to be in the helmet collage. We have 30~ish helmets already.
Christian Stewart
I forgot its only the second time I've made one and the only reason I did was to make sure no one tried to slip any drama into the OP. Thanks for the reminder user
Benjamin Scott
What happened to the megablocks game?
Cameron Sullivan
>not posting the most accurate one
Adrian Reed
I concede reach is also shit
Jordan Long
explain this
Wyatt Hughes
Using a pump action shotgun is cool so they put it in the game
Parker Rogers
Explain what? There's no argument or question presented.
Brody Sanchez
I never understood how unsc weapons could ever hold up against the covenant at all
Easton Butler
Why wouldn't they?
Luis Martinez
Bullets are bullets dude.
Wyatt Morales
I imagine them more as primitive projectiles and having weaker ships made of weaker materials. The covenant seem far too advanced, even if their reverse engineering was shit
Thomas Price
Your headcanon is really muddled and wrong.
Luke Wright
there is no better feel than going cloaky with an urs fuel rod and killing the enemy core from 100% to dead singlehandedly with 30 seconds left
Isaac Green
I havent read the books in a long time but surely the covenant ships are made of much stronger, more refined materials? Plus their shields. When it comes to weapons im unsure both have their pros and cons
Daniel Peterson
Covie tech is designed to fight Flood. Plasma does melt us, yes, but Kinetic energy beats them.
Jaxson Nguyen
Yes
Aaron White
This is false. In the lore the plasma weapons are significantly more viable and deadly. A single plasma pistol can melt a warthog.
Luis Baker
That makes sense. Does anyone know how long the covenant knew about the forerunners/had their tech before coming into contact with us? Would be cool to have a proper timeline
Eli Morris
Post helmets
Jonathan Jackson
Let me rephrase: both can kill each other.
Jayden Flores

Jaxson Watson
uhh forever since before they formed the Covenant they were using reverse engineered forerunner shit and fought each other with it.
Michael Anderson
Helmet user gave it an X but whatever
Asher Garcia
>people are finally leaving the company About time Kai dies
Jonathan Roberts
2 MAC rounds kill a covie ship. 1 if you can disable their shields another way. Personally I think you have a better color combo than Jking but it does evoke Monster so I see why some might not like it.
Julian Walker
Yeah, they should have a revolver shotgun
Luis Morris
You're a funny man, Mister Bond

Good job sweaty. Lets show these defectors what for. We just finished Lucky too didnt we? /hg/ should be working together instead of dividing themselves over one persons ego and inability to look past a particular incident and carry on.

they were getting out of hand multiple threads ago. Just ignore them and carry on. They want attention more than anything else

I wasn't even in the company until like a week or two ago bruv. I haven't even been shitposting in the thread. Basically nothing has changed for me.

I never knew you werent in the company, I just cant add anyone to my list who was involved im just glad its over

Has anyone read envoy? Never even heard about it until yesterday
Evan Flores
I think we're just getting started.
Jordan Martinez
Yeah, in a fucking shit light, I agree
Levi Rogers
>people are still assmad about the so-called "exodus" Y'all are retarded. As long as you're playing with /hg/ and post in the thread, you're part of /hg/. Company bullshit doesn't matter.

Josiah Fisher
I ccan defend all three of these people.
>Neirn Dude was barely in the company to begin with. He was back out before he was even in for too long. Has not a shitposter, has not a piece of shitg, but he is on and ready to party up all the time. That's what matters. He actually reminds me a lot of Red. >Wizards Literally did nothing. Yeah he left the company, but keep in mind he didn't even join the new one that Backup & Friends did. He just left because as he saw it he didn't want to pick a side and rightfully deduced that the schism shit is stupid. Lately he has been absolutely instrumental to the helmet pics for the collage, and he's always around to chat and/or play. Maybe there was a time when he was more immature. If so, that has passed. >Droid Droid has been very vocal about his actions as of late. He didn't do it for Achilles, he didn't do it yo hurt /hg/. He has made it clear he only did it "because it's fucking hilarious." It's just the memes, Jack. That's all. Plus has still the #1 most frequent webm poster and has a constant presence on most /hg/ media. Has he been vocally anti-Kai at times? Yes. Is he a bit overly negative? Sure. But none of this is new, so to say now that you see him in a new light makes no sense.
Jonathan Brooks
But Neirn is an Enemy of the State
John Peterson
We can all agree Backup is a dick eating faggot now though.
Asher Perry
Okay retard

Dylan Moore
The Logic Plague would make the most sense but they bungled its application.
The Precursors/Gravemind outright proclaimed their intent to create an everlasting chain of suffering for all life in the galaxy, through one means (or servant) or another. Their MO has been to confront the champion of their enemy and convert them into a force of suffering for their own ends (Mendicant Bias, the Ur-Didact, etc.).
Thematically, the whole "Reclaimer Saga" could have been a series of events tied together by the influence of the Precursors: in Halo 4 you fight an Ur-Didact twisted and warped by the Gravemind's insanity; in Halo 5 you fight Cortana who is likewise warped into an unwitting instrument of the Precursor/Flood will. Instead we have a whole bungled story in which it appears Cortana has gone batshit of her own accord, with little to no hint that there might be another party responsible for her behavior.
As it is, the only hints we get are quotes similar to/ripped from the Didact. And that's not nearly enough to hint at an overarching theme or behind-the-scenes entity who might have caused such a rapid shift in character.

Asher Robinson
Did you not pay attention to any pre-343 story? UNSC tech CAN'T stand up against the Covenant.
Ultimately, on the ground UNSC weaponry is decent enough (a bullet's a bullet, whether it's plasma, hardlight, or metal), but when it comes to shit that matters in far-future warfare (shielding, faster-than-light tech, WMDs, etc.) human tech is highly outmatched by the Covies.
The Covies always had the numbers too. You could breed an overwhelming army from Unggoy within a handful of short generations.

I like energy swords
Bentley Lopez
Much Better
Levi Martinez
Hello Dragoneye
Wyatt Kelly
I always assumed from in-game behavior that canonically Covenant weaponry was designed more specifically to fight other Covies (since plasma generally drops shields faster).
Isaac Perry
Does the /hg/ discord still exist? Did I get kicked from it for being inactive (mostly play on pc; mostly use teamspeak these days)?
Christopher Turner
You are correct. Unfortunately game and book canon are basically separate things.
Blake Smith
Yes and most likely yes Post GT
Jaxon Turner
We clear inactives every so often, so probably.
Invite code is Qhf5Muc

Message Sigmund82, xBackup Beastx, or THE ONE BIG RED on xbox and they will send you an invite. Alternatively just post your GT
