tfw i'm actually uploading content
but it's basically shitposting
_as all things should be_
Why the reupload?
11/10 content as always, love the fact you're such a halo fan aswell
You scrub you are supposed to cross at 1:01 and make a barracks on the free pads
Valefisk what hoi4 mod is this?
Good to see a fellow halo fan. This game takes me back. Get up in the morning, no responsibilities, play the hell out of this. The series is possibly one of the best shooters out there. I personally feel 343 did wonders with Halo 4, but after that it just went downhill. As for this, artfully done. Fair and balanced indeed.
i love this game, used to play it all day every day
Stop doing TikTok ads; also, me too
Wait MrBeast is a Halo fan???
Wow I’m a big fan
Well he used to be a gaming channel for all the ogs

I remember when I would spam ODSTs always so much fun
Drew Breezy I hate you, on fort deen that was the most fucking annoying thing.
I remember when I started and I built 7 science facilities, my friend gave me so much shit
I love odsts
I would spam artillery
I hated odst 😂😂 i always went for the people whi can mak eit
you ever build a Chuck Norris base? its just all shield generates and pump out special units to victory.
the only acceptable covenant strat
What about the invencible scarab strategy? one scarab and 30 engineers, if you don't use Anders is petty annoying. And the covenant leaders were op when they were level up. the profet can spawn units behind any base as the ODST. Also I think hunters are the most polyvalent unit in the game, if you combine them with wolverines are petty tough.
That never works lol. Don't be a shitty teamate and do that
Noobs always get a horde and either have them sit by when their allies get attacked, or do bullshit rambo attacks without letting their teamates know and they end up getting destroyed.
Tje super scarab works pretty well in some situation, for example in the map eden the are 2 very narrow ways in right and in left sides. If you put a scarab there the enemies units can not go all together. Scorpion have to go 2 each time so the scarab can not be destroyed there except if you have the mac cannon improved to the maximum. And I am not mentioning the covenant leader...
*is anders*
*goes air*
*enemy team goes anti air*
*continues to go air*
*every recruit ever*
That's actually the best thing to do with Anders. Unless your opponent is UNSC I suppose. Wolverines are actually effective. Vampires are trash.
Except for when you have a full squad of them you can freeze their entire force.
Vamps are godly when used with wolverines. If you are fighting a prophet, you always need them otherwise he'll just fly over and take out some reactors and teleport out.
@@Diabetic_Chicken69 I beg to differ. The only reason Vampires seem to be good when used with Wolverines is because Wolverines are exceptionally effective. Honestly, if someone was using Wolverines I would change my strategy anyway, but I wouldn't do it for the vampires. I regularly decimate Vampires with a full army of Hawks.

"Look at this totally OP strat" *takes 40 minutes to destroy AI*
It works, and at the same time probably would piss off actual players, so hey, it's a win.
implying any halo wars game can be less than 10 years long by design
It's possible. Warthog rushes were a thing. I hated it.
If you're timing was right, you could also grunt/Arbiter rush.
Everyone here is noobs, 7 min tank rush baby!
If you're not making scorpions by 5 minutes then you're not winning.
The gap in difficult between heroic and legendary is so large that there should of been 2 more difficulties in between heroic and legendary
Well the gap in difficulty between heroic and legendary in the classic Halo is huge, remember at 12yo not fucking clearing the first stage in legendary halo2, but managing to reach stage 4 within the same time spent. Good times

@@terryberard1355 what about automatic difficulty?
honestly when the ai plays unsc it is no way near as difficult.
What are you a Warhammer general?
“Throw more space marines at it! It worked the first time”
"Army materializes out of nowhere."
...CREED!!!
Just as planned
with this game the friendly AI either murders the other team, or gets murdered
srg forge2 atchison or you protect them so you can “request” 100% of their resources
I quite often only defend my AI allies then let them do all the offensive work. Makes for some pretty cool AI battles. But yes they are terrible in the early stages and don't do much to defend themselves from rush attacks
No joke, I was goofing off with the prophet and randomly won on heroic. Apparently my AI was slaughtering them.
Then play automatic 199 they'll get good
They literally cheat at that level XD
The Odst strat isn't even that OP. It only worked so well because the AI is stupid. Scorpion rush is the best strat. 4 scorpions out by 10 minutes can devastate any unready opponent(Against players this works much better). An even better strat is the super turtle on the docks. Cobras hold the choke point, and wolvergenes patrol in search of any enemy air.
rageface memeaholic aganist a coordinated team that doesn't work, and even if it did then how the fuck YOU gunna win? wait until the enemy team ragequits?
You talking about the super turtle? The goal isn't to win. Its to make the game last as long as possible. Also it does work against coordinated teams I've literally done it. I've made games last upwards of 4 hours.
Artillery only rush
TANK BEATS EVERYTHING!
rageface memeaholic
But why though?
That's four hours of your life spent turtleing in one match =/
You and isp vs bokoen and Braun.
While Drew commentates?
But they can only use artillery
Jasper Reid idk that sounds a bit gamey to me
No hi
I loved Vulture spam and warthog rushes, such a simple game yet so fun and with so many viable strategies.
When I did the warthog rush I felt like the cut scene of the spearhead in halo reach. Warthog were petty fun to use, they were pretty fast. I loved to combine it with the improved hornets of Anders, you could reach any point in the map pretty quickly.
RIP hog rush, I won so many games against people trying to rush. If you try it against players who know what they are doing, it wont work.
yeah warthogs are trash, good luck actually taking a base of someone who isn't retarded
@@franlopezfelix9357 warthog rush was the only way i could think of to win that superscarab campaign mission
@@CrazyDutchguys That mission was one of the hardest one, the last mission was also pretty hard.
I remember one time I was playing against three legendary ai and I did a scarab rush. While I was spending ten minutes building resources, my teammates both died leaving me alone against three unsc legendary ai. After two hours of running around the map destroying and building bases, I finally managed to overcome all three opponents. No scarabs were lost in my match, but several engineers were.
I see you used the scarab jesus method 😂
Perfectly balanced like all things should be
My thoughts exactly
OI, YOU GOT A LOICENSE FOR THAT EGOISM
You lost a thousand men in a single fight?
For the Imperium, that's just breakfast. On Monday.
*crumb
The unsc lost over 4 billion troops crew and Spartans along 10 billion civilian
40k fans try not to bring up their bigger numbers slop:
"I'm not gonna lose *this* fight"
*scarab shows up*
hmmmmmmmm
There is no way this game is ready to be an E-Sport, the ODST Marines clearly needs a buff in order to make this more balanced.
The meta is scorpion tank rushing, a PT scorpion army would crush an ODST army
Lol I think they need a little bit more of balancing for that to happen... Actually, it's more like a shitload of changes.
Sean Stack Ryan scorpion tank rushing is not meta, warthog rushes and covenant leader rushes combined or alone easily beat tanks. Except in 1v1 where the game is a lot more balanced and many more troops are viable
@@kroth5810 i only really played 1v1s, so i can see how the game would be different with multiple opponants, however it certainly seems like rushing is the best strategy, like mac rushing is a thing, but at least in halo wars 1 you can play without rushing, in the second game you can produce infantry from your hq, game was built for rushing
Sean Stack Ryan with good opponent you will die if you you dont rush in either game, both gamers have players who will not rush and just build up hoping they aren’t rushed. Building infantry out of your base isn’t that important as the base infantry are really bad against almost all other early game troops so it’s not that hard to defend yourself. Honestly I think building warthogs out of your base is much more powerful as they are one of the best units in halowars 1 because of their mobility, cost and damage.
Halo wars 1 > halo wars 2
The pelican transport in halo wars 2 is stupid
Pelican Transport on fort deen ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) . Ah I remember that tactic
halo wars 2 looks like a kids game
This is true but Halo Wars 2 ain't bad. It's just different, and to be fair it's hard to be better than an absolute legend like the original Halo Wars.
I was so hyped for HW2, but for whatever reason I don't like it. Also the waypoint system is way worse and locking base upgrades and tech levels together is really bad imo. Expanding early is also pretty difficult and sets you back a lot.
1000 odst deaths is nothing. Me and my friend played a game where I only used Marines (Not ODST) and lost about 10000 men. We won though. But us it really a win?
My friend used tanks and aircraft. I was the numbers, he was the hammer
@@t0xictac015 i shall try this strategy
thats basically the imperial guard strategy from 40k
Ah, the russian method. Clog the engines of the enemy weapons of war with your infantry.
@@lampostsamurai2518 just jam em in there
*sees an army of anti-vehicle infantry approaching his base*
“Well I guess I better start making tanks instead of flamethrowers”
It worked
In the words of a marine from halo 3 "tank beats everything!"
RIP blue scarab you will never be forgotten 2018-2018
By order of ISP don’t do artillery only
One time on this map I had a warthog ramp into one of the ravines and survive after two minutes it drove straight up the cliff and was fine i love this game to death and most glitches are not impactful to the gameplay but are just plain funny I also think this is my favorite halo game bo2 is my fav game I spent weeks of time in this game without internet mind you so it’s good to see other people like it as much as me
only 90% casaulties ? the Imperial Guard be proud. That's a total victory !
did you know whales can be gay
it’s science
Valefisk gay lmao
No duhhh
I knew that
True. Your profile picture makes me think that you want to behead them for that, though.
Maybe meme it up with the Zan Man
Zannys awesome
This was great to see, someone playing a game from my childhood. I can actually play it properly now
7:05 WE’VE GOT TWO
SCARABS I REPEAT TWO SCARABS
I'm glad this game is getting some steam again, this game is definitely a classic!
The entirety of the unsc strategy is literally teleports behind you
"The fool he has forgotten to train additional units"
14* grizzly and 15* warths are great
You can also put cobras inside cobras with the transport option
When you haven’t played the game in forever and you decide to go on multiplayer only to spend eternity finding a match and 5 minutes being destroyed by some pros
The only people who play it are the pros nowadays XD
Everyone that plus this game online are all generals xD
this is actually how unsc fought the covvies
but also used spartans
"COMMAND! THE ARBITER IS HERE!"
"Ignore him keep shooting the buildings"
“But sire, the troops!”
“I care not for your little life, shoot the buildings”
What kind of Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption mod is this?
I think there is a halo mod for FoC, but pretty incomplete probably
TNSN no space battle =)
I only recently got that game and I was not expecting a reference ever in my life.
There is a space battle mod called covenant at war.
@@datkat2001
There is a mod on the steam workshop that only lets you play space battles.
The most underrated RTS classic!
I still play it. Needs more content
Please upload more of this , I love this so much.
sheds tear at bungie leaving, "i hear that"
My favorite strat in this game was to spam jackal snipers in the one game mode that give you more population for every base you own. The max possible population was 90 (or 99? I can't remember). Anyway, 90 jackal snipers brought enough firepower to melt any unit in the game in less than 3 seconds. It was glorious to watch.
But they were total garbage vs structures. It'll literally take them about 5 or 10 minutes of constant shooting to destroy an enemy base. A pair or couple pairs of hunters could destroy a base in a fraction of the time, but no one could stand against the mighty jackal horde!
Except ODST spam. That'll shit on jackals pretty hard.
Jackals are hard counters to odst though, one of the best. Only thing that beats it is scarab and flamethrowers
A full army of jackals is pretty trash
“What the fuck? How do they have banchees already?” I too am surprised at the speed of which the covenant produces banchees. Even on easy they acquire them like a forty year old woman on Black Friday where wine is 75% off
i loved doing this when i played this game, along with turtling using the elephants
Love how you made you're title for the video exactly the same as the Spiffingbrit
OMG the high resolution and high frame rate looks 10x better than the 360 version! I have been missing so much. I still play this on xbox every once and a while, but I might have to get it on PC after seeing this!
It’s on Xbox One now with a remaster
Could you do a series of this game pretty please?
I remember one time i left my entire army on the lightbridge and they fell after it turned off. I lost that round
me: reads title
perfectly balanced
my warthog rushes: as all things should be
I was just replaying this a week ago
what kind of HOI4 mod is this?
It is the This Joke is Getting old Mod
A damn good one.
7:03 They got two scarabs, repeat two scarabs
Love this game memorized the spawn location for all the supply crates on both settings. One usually had less the other tends gave many more.
Yes. Fort deen was the worst one with bad supply spawns imo
*Halo wars is actually pretty nicely balanced! This chump was just playing against AI!* Take that shit online against competent players and see how well you do
Wrath Is Me - I agree speaking as someone who got pretty good at the game, i basically considered the legendary AI to be worthless. I could 1v3 the legendary AI most games because of how bad it is at the game.
He sits there for like half the game without expanding on his bases.
Yeah and against a player that would be punished! Against dumb AI it doesn't matter
I played with a couple of my friends but all they'd do is choose arbiter and rush me with honor guards before I could do anything.
"It's so broken, watch as i beat some AI that could have easily knocked me out if it was an actual player" well that's some flawless logic
1:12 I know exactly how many marines you need, or just you know, one spartan
That Thing with the scarab and the light bridge happened to an enemy player in Multiplayer once. All he had was 2 scarabs and he was destroying my last base when I distracted him with a medium sized odst army. So he turned around, I surrounded him while he was on the bridge and he lost his entire army
That was pretty awesome when I was 12 or
Halo wars is one of the best games ever I had so many memories on it. And then halo wars 2 comes out and I was very disappointed.
This. I had to delete HW2 I just couldn't stomach it. At least the story was okay.
I had a turtle with a buddy of mine for 7 hours straight on terminal morraine
landon taylor you beat my record of 6h28min :)
I remember times sitting terrified in the light bridge base with no allies left and a row of Cobras locked down as defensive artillery.
The second I saw that scarab on the bridge I just knew!
Artillery only
Artillery ONLY!!
ISP Said no
*gasp of delight*
“A weak blue base!”
It probably wasn’t your intention but that was adorable
I need you to upload more of this
omg i love this game - Prophet every time baby :)
Nothing spells balance like sending your 3 star prophet to the enemy base just to call it back when it's shield goes down and the enemy's base is already in ruins.
Prophet trash😂
Jay WalkZ yep my friends hated me
Moto RR nah man dont say that
Nah nah, arbiter is the real deal
Man this game looks great! Have you ever considered, "Artillery only in HOI4"????
*Sees that both covie AIs have scarabs* I count two scarabs! Repeat, two scarabs! *starts blasting One Final Effort*
Run from it
Dread it
Valefisk still uploads
ARTILLERY ONLY
Hello commrade valefisk
Happy to see you branching out!
I remember stacking cobras on top of each other to the point where they can survive Mac blasts. Good times.
What mod is this? ( yeah i love this game too got it for xbox alot of years ago
Vanilla.
This game was hella good and at high competitive level was very fun, there was no single OP strategy any hero could beat every other, it was just all about knowing what’s coming and reacting accordingly
Anyway git gud
You can't deny that there were lopsided match ups though. Like prophet vs everyone on barrens. Fuck that map.
My favorite map was that map too!!! And I would do the exact same thing of taking the bases first (only was really slow)
Now this was a trip down memory lane. ODST spam/cheese, scout hornet cheese, making 5 bases who only existed for supplies. Man I miss this game.
You know, you could still play it.
this game is the best console designed RTS made bar none and is actually a pretty decent demonstration of ensemble studios talent when put under severe development constraints
unfortunetly it has the pretty significant issue of being a CONSOLE DESIGNED RTS and even one of the best RTS studios in the industry couldn't save it, everything basicly had to be designed around macroing one large army and incentivised mono unit builds supported by hero units or super units
the legendary AI cheats like mad, they will quite literally fabricate resources out of nothing even with a single base, whats interesting is the game has a "scaling AI" which i believe they added in the PC release that ramps up the difficulty the more you play it, even though this AI can supposedly go above and beyond legendary it never blatantly fabricates resources, atleast as far as im aware of
Anders Hawk super unit upgrade is real cancerously overpowered in team games, think of it like WC3 undead wyrms+death knight against no human players
the Arbiter is just a WC3 dirty blademaster without the buildup and triple hog rushing in team games was an excellent source of salty children tears on the original xbox version
Agreed. The only other console RTS that comes close is Battle for Middle Earth II. Now _that_ deserves a video someday
The AI does cheat. It's most notable in automatic 160+
I remember only using ODST's on a legendary game and raping the enemy scarib.
i remember the spartan and scorpion strat its slow at the beginning but you get a lvl 2 or 3 spartan with killing 3 bases and put him into a tank and keep him alive most games you end with a near max lvl guy that can 1v1 a scarab.
Spat my drink when the Scarab fell from the light bridge XD Fucking brilliant
Artillery only when?
Legendary is pretty easy compared to automatic 140+. The game can get harder, much harder
I think at 160+ the AI can build a wraith every 5 seconds.
@Zxylo 5 If you turtle on the side where the bonus reactor is closest to the rebel base the scarabs cannot climb the cliffs there and have to come across the bridge.
@@bensutcliffe1975 After a while I began wondering if the AI could bend game mechanics in their favor.
@@lo8ner its the only way to make it more challenging. The AI is pretty crap in HW. It was never the main focus which is a shame because ensemble made some pretty good AI.
Even in another game, you still love bridges
This brings me back, man. I played the demo at GameStop any chance I could.
Oof i love halo wars
Never seen a RTS designed so unbalanced, to a degree that I laugh my ass off XDD
The unbalance made it fun
samuelju2 its not unbalanced the AI just sucjs
Halo wars is pretty balanced, this game was drawn out to like 30-40 minutes with him winning vs AI.
The AI knows what to do for the start but after that they go full potato.
Reminding you he's playing on legendary, so health, damage and ressource gather rate are increased for the enemy ai
Chandler Gloyd having legendary AI on my team is about as useful as having no team mate what so ever imo because they are so bad at the game
Cough gauss spam as anders and super turtling 3v3 was so much fun
3:45 How to cheese a scarab
1) Spam troops in front of it while it's on the light bridge
2) Wait for light bridge to not
3) profit until the other two scarabs come in
I got this game when it came out when I was only around 9 or 10 and I played the shit out of it. Was really disappointed to see the pay to win bullshit in the second one
Ahh the good one. It's a great game.
The sequel is not.
Whats the problem with the sequel?
@@ineednochannelyoutube5384 Not the best storyline, the changing of several characters appearances beyond simply changing actors, gameplay changes that were very unintuitive. It was very mediocre overall.
+Duke H. Maybe I shouldnt get it then.
I need no channel youtube! It is not bad, it is not great, it is the most ok game ever, mainly because of pay-to-win Blitz (NEVER play this mode) and because the story was mediocre.
SPOILERS BEGIN: The Banished got their asses kicked by an old repurposed colony ship with half a crew and they barely survived a small Flood outbreak, which was probably contained by them and the Sentinels, meaning that it had no relevance to the game story in the first place. They even got their only CSS cruiser destroyed, instead of successfuly destroying the Spirit of Fire, which eliminated the tension and the high stakes. The campaign also ends in 3 cliffhangers. On top of that, Cutter and Anders have changed their appearances completely since the first game, destroying all logic. SPOILERS END.
On the bright sight, the multiplayer is very fun. Just make sure to buy all the paid DLC leaders because they are the only OP ones.
All in all, the campaign and multiplayer are both fun to play, gameplay wise, but there is more that can be wished by the story and the business practise of Microsoft.
ye i honestly felt the story in the sequel was just so basic, and of course the changing of look with anders and cutter was super dumb. Pretty sure they also changed the voice actors, but what can ya do. But I definitely do like the cliffhangers, and how the halo wars series hopefully won't just be some backwash series that gets little to no attention by the halo community
That Thing with the scarab and the light bridge happened to an enemy player in Multiplayer once. All he had was 2 scarabs and he was destroying my last base when I distracted him with a medium sized odst army. So he turned around, I surrounded him while he was on the bridge and he lost his entire army

I remember back in the day of playing wars and using only those side bases to win easily, because as long as you have enough anti air and enough cobras lining the front entraces nothing can touch you.
As a long time halo wars player this video is painful to watch.
Exactly, I don't think he even understands that the basic idea of the combat is a rock-paper-scissors mechanic.
@@Alex_Fahey It's so sad to watch
