I just wanted to make sure.... r u ok? Like genuinely I have no idea why you keep doing some of the hardest challenges I've ever seen time after time. I love the content however so keep up the good work
13:12 the symbol is supposed to be the mantle of responsibility, but laziness happened. It's what happens when you mirror a texture to create a symmetrical room without paying attention to the detail in the texture.
Yeah especially in the secret stream he did that you can only access by using the Konami Code on Patreon where he did that 53 day straight run of destroying the phantoms.
I do not care that you had to shoot the phantoms because you proved that you CAN kill them with grapple shots. The only thing you did was save a MASSIVE amount of time, but the fact that you proved you’re actually able to destroy them with the grapple shot is incredible. In my opinion, you do not fail here. You managed to prove that you’re able to destroy them with grapple shots, so it _is_ possible to beat the phantoms with it, but I’m sure everyone can agree that it’s better for your health to have destroyed em with rockets.
I think vehicles have a tiny amount of regen so that they can deal with small collisions with terrain and the occasional plasma pistol round without slowly withering away. It’s a good feature imo
I agree it's a good addition to the game, I was a bit snarky in the video cause the tone of the segment called for it, lol. I think it's almost certainly for that because the vehicles that do have it regen to a minimum percentage of like 20-40%.
At the 6 minute interaction where he's fighting for who gets to sit in the ghost I was like, yeah but you don't have to fight them... and then 30 seconds later he says he learned he can just walk away... I mean grapple away.
I don’t pay for tv or any entertainment so here ya go. Also, you are the only CZcamsr I will guarantee watch, genuinely entertaining content keep it up!
They must have changed that, I did have a few wonky hitboxes with the Grapple so there's definitely still some stuff like that that they missed in the game.
That was an amazing watch, congrats on the performance! Also, the "3 phantoms" part was super interesting, and you went into so much trouble to understand fully how this could \-in theory\- be possible, it felt like a W anyway!
Don't count it as a fail as the situation regarding the phantoms because the situation is impossible that way. These vehicles are an exception to the rule because of the way they are. Exceptions are allowed as long as the exception means the possibility of doing the challenge is not humanly possible in a reasonable time.
13:09 It's actually the reclaimer symbol I think, most people think its something 343 introduced to halo but I'm pretty sure it dates back to CE. As for what that slightly different version of it means, if anything different, I'm not sure.
I know this is late but you're correct about the symbol being in CE however 343 changed it in order to avoid issues since the logo was actually from one of Bungie's games and neither of them match this symbol or the responsibility one. This is likely a third symbol that probably would've been explained in the future if the pve side didn't get completely scrapped.
Halo Infinite has so much potential, I hope they can bring it around MCC style, that game was awful at launch and now it's pretty damn great. I said this during my stream but I genuinely think that Halo Infinite can be the best Halo game ever. We just need to live in the universe that gets that game, and hopefully before 2025 too.
@@TipsyPhoenix I'm going to catch a lot of flak for this statement, but I am not confident in 343's ability to actually get Halo Infinite to that point. Honestly, even if they could, the hype is already gone. How many people are actually going to still have any interest in Halo by the time it does get to a good state? Almost everyone I know has uninstalled the game and gone back to Apex Legends, Call of Duty, or whatever shooter they were playing prior to Infinite's release.
@@qu1253 I can see it going either way, there's no way we can predict the future. Don't get me wrong, I haven't played Halo Infinite multiplayer for 10 months. But that doesn't mean I won't hop back in it the second it actually is feature complete. Cynicism and drawing hard lines about things like Couch Co-op are understandable, but I think there's enough room for a little optimism, as a treat.
That symbol is supposed to be the mantel of responsibility logo. It looks like it's only the right half of it though with the left side being a mirror duplicate. Likely since it's in the middle of the wall 343 just mirrored both sides of the room and it ended up like that.
I think you should do a nice or silly challenge, Halo Combat Evolved with only grunt enemies. You can make them any level of their ranks but I think all enemies as grunts would be a fun silly challenge.
It gets samey, and I see what you mean for sure, less imposing than Bungie's designs, even if 343 nailed the scale in this game imo, but I really like the designs of the major rooms, the final boss room is gorgeous. The golden accents building through the game are *Chef's Kiss*.
I'm glad that everyone agrees that one brute is the true final boss of Infinite. He was definitely the run killer more than the Harbinger ever could have been
The final boss of halo infinite: Generic Brute Chieftain God that's so insanely true. He was responsible for like 6 deaths in the boss room, meanwhile I died like once to Harbinger. He's just so goddamn fast and tanky
22:47 Good because now Joe Staten can improve Jega by a lot. Little note he didn't assassinate mastercheif during his fight against Escharum because that will be an insult for his dying friend
Keep up the amazing content, it'll definitely grow. You're quality of delivery on these with editing and narration has improved each new release. You're definitely entertaining.
I realize you pride yourself immensely on these "challenges" (more like testaments at this point), but really you need to give yourself some credit - no, fuck that. ALL of the credit. You've made mods that have become popular with big-time Halo youtubers within weeks. Tipsy, you don't have to be perfect - you're already a cut above the vast majority of the community. There's not a single person other than Mint-fucking-Blitz that could pull off what you do, consistently.
I’m not kidding when I say this: I don’t think phoenix would have survived if he did this on legendary. He would have quit or exploded from frustration.
One thing missing from the Infinite grappleshot is the ability to connect two items between each other and close each end of the rope like in Just cause. Even it it had a cost, connecting a grunt to an explosive and hearing them scream as the explosive flies closer and closer before blowing on their faces. As for the forerunner symbol, it is either a modified mantle symbol, or a stylish seven column symbol. I think I saw something like this at the start of the Uprising mission on the wall after the first door. But my memory might be fuzzy. Wouldn't be surprised as former Bungie employees worked on Infinite. Btw, simple question, how do you control master chief while flying with the grapple. Doesn't that require to move? Also, try keep sane after this run. Really good video! XD
The only control I had over Chief with the grapple was with the direction I was looking while moving towards the grapple point. (Which is more control than you would think, as long as you whip the camera around.) I wouldn't press "WASD" during grapples at all, which did make some parts hard and Spiderman-ing harder than normal. I love your Just Cause idea, the grapple is already fantastic but that would make it perfect. Also I remember seeing the symbol in a couple other places, it's interesting, I always feel like small details like that are deliberate so I wanna know all about them. Thanks for the support!
I may not be able to watch past the sequence due to not playing past that mission yet, but i shall return to this video when i get around to finishing up the game (that also says something about the story; not finishing it within consecutive play sessions)
True! I didn't consider that for some reason because I have it bound to mouse wheel and I did it so sparingly. I could still swap weapons on the ground with the grapple. Thinking back it would make things longer but not necessarily harder. I wouldn't be able to use it for Skimmers unless an Ultra Elite was around so those would be longer. I could still bring Elite-Boss-Two's sword into Escharum's fight so that wouldn't be too bad, and there are two swords in the Harbinger fight so no problem there either. Good catch though, no clue how that slipped my brain until you pointed it out
It’s a shame that this game only has like 3 good main missions, and then those fort missions. We really need big set pieces to return like the Scarabs from Halo 3, or even a mission with a more unique gimmick. The grappleshot basically made vehicle sections become obsolete too. Halo Infinite is like dead center between being a great game and being a bad game.
Hi everyone! Thanks for watching
uh... by using the graplehook... you are shooting it... i mean... by logic...
i think...
Hell yeah!!! Love to hear it, super stoked for the new content!! Keep up the awesome work, Phoenix :D

Your skill, patience, problem solving and humor all combine to make incredibly entertaining challenges! BRAVO
Your gaming challenges are top tier honestly
I'll admit, you got me with the "I've been recording this since launch!" prank, nice one
I agree that the Brute Chieftan is the true final boss.
you actually got me with the "i've been doing this for a year", i wholly believed it
A grapple-only Halo Infinite feels like the only game one would be allowed to play in hell.
When you first said “I have been recording this video since the game came out!” I completely believed you, I was gasping in shock and awe.
17 days of non-stop perfect gameplay 🤣🤣🤣
just get fatrat to do it
2:03 to 2:07 is one of the funniest things I heard today.
You are quickly becoming one of my favorite CZcamsrs
22:45 yeah. The dlc. I can’t wait for that. Would suck if it was cancelled
"Yes, it's on easy."
"Were it so easy..."
This had to have been the biggest waste of time simply to prove you can do something. and it was totally worth it thank you for your service
This reminds me of the "no analog stick" playthrough of Skyrim, which is hilarious to watch.
The timeline where Master Chief got _way_ too obsessed with his grappling hook.
At the 6 minute interaction where he's fighting for who gets to sit in the ghost I was like, yeah but you don't have to fight them... and then 30 seconds later he says he learned he can just walk away... I mean grapple away.
I could barely finish halo infinite without a challenged attached, hats off to you for suffering through it with this ridiculous restriction
Halo infinite with only 2 buttons (except for like 2 minutes but STILL) is still a mightily impressive feat.
You've quickly became one of my favorite halo youtubers, maybe my favorite non-lore creator, keep up the nice videos!
These videos have been amazing man. Some of my favorite content out there right now. I get genuinely excited when one comes out.
I don’t pay for tv or any entertainment so here ya go. Also, you are the only CZcamsr I will guarantee watch, genuinely entertaining content keep it up!
Thanks, Bungus
Aaaawwwwwww
the command spire segment was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
Didn't know that master chief is also Spiderman
you are a crazy dude
I tried this a while back, interested to see how you get past the elevator.
Pressing "E" doesn't count, shhh....
(well, I meant getting out, considering for some reason you can't grapple in the elevator (unless they changed that)
They must have changed that, I did have a few wonky hitboxes with the Grapple so there's definitely still some stuff like that that they missed in the game.
The dedication is unparalleled!
Hey man, you're a real hero. You must have the patience of a saint, and I have infinite respect for you.
Each challenge he does just gets harder and harder, I'm in awe of the dedication.
Indeed, the halo reach elite ultra challenge was impossible to finish
When I saw the thumbnail I thought this was going to be a parody video. But good on you for actually doing it
I love you referring to the final hammer brute as the final boss of halo infinite xD Beautiful!

I'm getting four wisdom teeth taken out this week and it'll probably be less painful than what you went through on this run lmao
I can't help but scream "USE THE BANDANA SKULL!" as that would make this challenge a breeze... maybe too easy actually
Remember us when your channel completely blows tf up! ❤️
You’re like the Fortunate equivalent of Halo. Embrace it you’re on your way my guy🔥

Dude, this and the halo 2 challenge are easily the hardest and frustrating challenges that you can try
Halo 2 with all enemies being replaced by brutes would be interesting
You my friend are a mad man congrats on getting through it
This guy should do a grapple shot and melee only challenge. No walking or shooting. Just grappling and punching.
"Or fun" I'm pretty sure not having fun with Halo Infinite was a part of their design philosophy when making the game
They deliberately removed exploits that speedrunners discovered, after release. "You WILL play this game the way we want you to!"
Ah yes, Halo Infinites game journalist mode.
ive wanted to do this for the longest time but never got around to it, guess you beat me to it
This man's power scares me
I have not played this game but will gladly watch this video.
I just can't help but look at Halo Infinite and wonder what it could have been under competent management.

It's actually a shorter game than halo 3, they fool you into thinking it's longer by padding it out with travel
That's basically how they just released the game anyway you can do all that but it was without fun
