LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: Send Codes (We get sent a LOT of game codes from developers and agencies. Now we have somewhere to play them. Pls Send Codes. Game: Halo: Campaign Evolved) at Mon 01:00 PM PDT (0s from now).
TXC2:
GapFiller 
TXC2: title change!
Pal_Friendpatine: Excited to see this today
TXC2: CONTACT
BraveOthello: Well this is an unexpected Send Codes title
Pal_Friendpatine: Apt tunes. Just listened to this the other day myself
GhassanPL: Oh hey, bunge
TXC2: we're going all the back to 2001
Getter404: Do we know who's in the driver's seat for this one?
BraveOthello: @paronomasiac042 Nov 2001
tdapenguin: @paronomasiac042 Time flies
paronomasiac042: i was guessing, i missed the halo series entirely
Pal_Friendpatine: Think Wiggins will make a guest appearance?
Getter404: @paronomasiac042 Launch day on the Xbox Original Recipe, so one year after the PS2 so one year after 9/9/99. At least that's how I remember it
TXC2: paronomasiac042 2003 is when the first game came out on PC, so you were at least partly right
BraveOthello: You guess the right era though, that was between CE and 2
paronomasiac042: partial success!
TXC2: and now I play the game of will this Summertime match end before the stream begins?
petey_vonwho: Gods this soundtrack slapped.
TXC2:
and it ended just after I sent that message 
maclaglen: Hello peeps! How are we feeling today?
TXC2: hello maclaglen welcome
Getter404: @petey_vonwho Too bad it's in the "created by Hatsune Miku" pile with Minecraft now
Pal_Friendpatine: Good! Well exercised! thank you for asking @maclaglen
Vinewood_OG:
What the Halo? 
BraveOthello: @Getter404 What?
Getter404: Yeah, the composer ended up being a real piece of work
TXC2: Here we GO!
StringCheeseRiot: Lets do thiiiis
TXC2: Hello James
Getter404: We've got a James!
SnackPak_:
spethycakes:
ContingentCat: hi James
Flyingdelorion: Hello James!, chat
RTwo28: It's time for a master chief?
spethycakes: I wonder which master chief cooked this up
notpsion: use the magnum james
StringCheeseRiot:
TXC2: it's up there
SnackPak_: yeah halo is kind of a big deal
AugmentingPath: no, unreal's a different one
TXC2: like it's number 3 after doom and Goldeneye for important FPS games?
Wolfstrike_NL: "I'm not gonna be honest with you" ????
RatherLargeToad: fewer ways than Doom, but that’s not saying much
calculated_uncertainties: the date on this is breaking my brain
TXC2:
remade to have a frame rate that is a positive integer
calculated_uncertainties:
100 
1
Delmsh: Have you played a lot of Halo?
mrjujubeans: I believe with the MC collection it also adds Guilty Spark vid entries
RTwo28: 13 total ways to Halo if I'm counting correctly?
notpsion: remember caffeinated water?
TXC2: is anyone else getting a weird border around calculated_uncertainties bit message?
TXC2: TWITCH!
Flyingdelorion: Yes, me too @TXC2
calculated_uncertainties: I figued it was an update. I didn't do anything special
RatherLargeToad: Twitchcraft!
TXC2:
only seeing it now for me
Wolfstrike_NL: Sometimes it loads, sometimes not, I'm not seeing it now
TehAmelie: Champagne evolved! hello friends
TXC2: it was a blast to watch
ContingentCat: It was a lot of fun
VorlonScout:
It was great! And got the badges. 
ladyjessica: it was amazing
TXC2: hello TehAmelie welcome
FauksStarling: It was great!
Vinewood_OG: My favorite time of year!
Strebenherz: Howdy James, howdy y'all
VorlonScout: (Currently dealing with having thown out my back this morning, which is less great. But here to be entertained.)
TXC2: hello Strebenherz welcome
petey_vonwho: Gonna have to catch a bunch of the subathon vods later, missed a bunch of stuff that I wanted to see.
Astrovore: I enjoyed the big cross-game randomiser stream
TXC2:
this yeah had the most amount of shocked Jordynne face 
theJCourt: Wait... this isn't a chunk
Alahmnat: whee, Halo: The First One: Again: Reloaded
Pal_Friendpatine: Loved Archipelago
Strebenherz: yeah cooldown time is good
calculated_uncertainties: Stretching for time chilltalk was fun.
brieandbacon: @TXC2 And a lot of chat being "totally normal"...
TehAmelie: i think it was great, even though it seems i slept through most of the very best
GhostValv: having more breathing room was nice
torlynic: It was my first one and it was amazing!
TXC2: brieandbacon YEEEEAP
FauksStarling: Everyone seemed to have a better time not being so rushed. Except of course at the Dennys but no one's excited to go to Dennys.
TXC2:
me especially
brainbosh: I mean any growth in todays streaming economy is great
notpsion: excellent TTS
Barb4rian: Play like it is 2003, lets goo
toady0s: lmao
baskwalla: Halo everyone
TehAmelie: boo!
CabooseFails: Classic Halo PC experience!
Creideiki_SE: Because Microsoft.
ContingentCat: because it's 2026
ladyjessica: stream over new game
notpsion: lol Send Codes ending early today
Alahmnat: I love video games in 2026
Pal_Friendpatine: Metrics!!!!
RatherLargeToad: Brand synergy!
underhill33: fuckin microsoft
Barb4rian: That is 100% microsoft coded
brainbosh: welp
Creideiki_SE: At least it's not Games for Windows Live.
Getter404: Oh, this is the big obstacle. If you link it wrong you gotta open a support ticket and can't play for a couple days. Fun times
TXC2: it's 2026, EVERYTHING needs a fucking account now
ladyjessica: the aristocrats
brainbosh: and this is the point where I would uninstall and refund
wholsometiger: @brainbosh Same
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
TehAmelie: i don't think i've even linked my microsoft account to my computer. at least i'd prefer not to with all the spyware stuff they're doing
AugmentingPath: send a code? that's the name of the show!
SajuukSjet: microsoft account == xbox account == achievements etc across devices, so I can see why they did it
TXC2: we REALLY need laws about not being able to have this happen
Strebenherz:
so they sent a code but also "hey james give us your info" 
ladyjessica: yeah…
RatherLargeToad: now you must mail them your firstborn
FauksStarling: Are you really sure you want to play the game that you bought the license for??
Creideiki_SE: Doesn't Minecraft also require a Microsoft account? They should already have all your data.
A_Dub888: Cool Technology
CabooseFails: Honestly, this is solidly the Halo experience
notpsion: I really think this experience right here is setting the tone for the rest of this remake, so good luck
RatherLargeToad: Invert the Z-axis
TXC2:
James is not a plane
Alahmnat: why do we need a countdown?
DMGlol: how much nostalgia am I expecting
Creideiki_SE: @Alahmnat So you know when to put your phone down.
DMGlol: oh shit
TehAmelie: Stream sponsored by Microsoft: urge to install Linux increases within 15 minutes
Wolfstrike_NL: Genius
BrowneePointz: Where's your Gamer Fuel Mt Dew and Doritos James? *shakes head*
TXC2: eww we brought a lot of debris with us
notpsion: what the heck did they do to keyes
BraveOthello: Oof, never realized the autumn took that much damage leaving Reach
v_nome: For Halo 1 I think Bawls would be more appropriate
Getter404: Oh no he's Space Reagan
Bassios: Man, I thought being late to the stream meant I'd miss the start of the game, but apparently the game had other plans
RatherLargeToad: replaced him with the villain from Person 5
BrowneePointz: No. you specifically have to go back in time and get the OG Halo 3 Release Gamer Fuel Mt Dew and drink it
AugmentingPath: @TehAmelie I think we're just at "product received for free" and not properly "sponsored," so James is allowed to not like it. Or at least that's usually how send codes goes
LadyAiluros: OMG this is gorgeous
Anubis169: Cortana, all I need to know is did we lose them?
BrowneePointz: Jokes aside, that Mt Dew flavor slapped
Anubis169: "I'm sorry Admiral, your plan has reached its maximum token limit. Please upgrade to Pro-tier at $450/mo to continue."
TXC2:
Keyes played here by R Lee Ermy ?
TehAmelie: yeah that was not the best wording
BrowneePointz: THE GOAT
LadyAiluros: I'm prolly getting this ....
TXC2: "and Cortanna? put on some pants"
Creideiki_SE: Why does the hologram need to gesture as if it's using a physical interface?
RatherLargeToad: this is a spaceship
BrowneePointz: My pronouns are He/They cuz I could never be Him(Johnson)
Getter404: @Creideiki_SE Because they really liked Minority Report
notpsion: 343 outsourced this game to like 15 studios, you can tell lol
BraveOthello: @Creideiki_SE She doesn't, but Halo AIs were made from human brains so they act very human for the most part
TXC2: hello jacqui_lantern234 welcome
Pal_Friendpatine: Boy I loved that Orange Mt Dew. Didn’t have it much, but it was tasty. But now my tongue would probably disagree.
GhostValv: someone really liked Aliens
Anubis169: 'lo jacqui
Alahmnat: stop looking at the camera, dude
BrowneePointz: @Creideiki_SE Cortana is a state of the art next gen AI modeled after human psychology, so probably just an artifacting reflex
LadyAiluros: is the actually out or does James have an advance copy?
petey_vonwho: Since they remade Halo, think they'll remake Red vs. Blue?
MenomeAlice: Good evening. Oh, this is that new indie boomer shooter
BrowneePointz: this has been out for like 2-3 weeks
TehAmelie: @Alahmnat dude has resting serial killer face too
LadyAiluros:
Lol I"m behind then 
TXC2: hello MenomeAlice welcome
RatherLargeToad: lousy parking jobs
BrowneePointz: So how many of us in chat had Halo as a big part of our Youth/Adolescence?
BraveOthello: @petey_vonwho Given the current non-existence of Rooster Teeth ... Unlikely
MenomeAlice: MCBain: MENDOOOOOOZAAAAAA
TehAmelie: i had some months of enthusiastic Warthog jousting
DMGlol: AngelThump
TXC2: there's our boy
Barb4rian: John Halo
frnknstn: oh no he's hot
jacqui_lantern234:
oh, hes hot alright 😳 
LadyAiluros: this is amazing
MenomeAlice: It's John Halo
BrowneePointz: But DOES the suit jack him off?
BraveOthello: @MenomeAlice And he's hot
DMGlol: all that motion blur
TXC2: that's nauseating even for me
BrowneePointz: oh that's a LOT of motion blur
Barb4rian: Ugh, I hate motiuon blur in games
LadyAiluros: Zoom
BraveOthello: @BrowneePointz ONI flatly denies that the suit jacks him off. And we all know we can trust them
moist_but_crunchy: motion blur. why do they always default it on
notpsion: mmm my blur
Barb4rian: First thing I turn off
EvilBadman: probably video
Anubis169: video settings, scroll down
Anubis169: unless they've removed it
TehAmelie: there's motion blur and there's losing vision when you turn your head. . .
Anubis169: urgh... framegen...
BraveOthello: A lot of games are now assuming DLSS in their performance goals
CabooseFails: It's fun to turn off DLSS and figure out how much they leaned on it for "optimization"
Anubis169: ^
TehAmelie: John Halo does love leg day
Garfy400: John Halo high as balls
kragmabutch: @BrowneePointz surprisingly not much except for a deep and abiding love for the needler from playing halo 4 at a friend's house. played thru the games inmcc last year and loved it though
ekimekim: ah yes, the "we can't assume you've ever played an FPS before" tutorial. the good old days
Anubis169: oh hey, they let you switch between Inverted and Wrong
BrowneePointz: Eww, who are we, Ian?
Alahmnat: lol
LadyAiluros: is it only Halo 1 or all of the story?
EvilBadman: THis is halo 1
BrowneePointz: It's Halo 1 with extra bits
Barb4rian: Ahhh the beeping. So cozy
BrowneePointz: and 4 player co op
TXC2:
Anubis169 my head is not a plane
LadyAiluros: awww
BrowneePointz: Those marathons of Halo Infinite streams WERE fun
jacqui_lantern234: @BrowneePointz the thing is that Ian gets more crap for this than he deserves. the REAL culprit for such crimes is Wiggins
Alahmnat: "the ship is under attack and aliens have boaded, there's no time to give Chief a gun!"
EvilBadman: No one should get any crap for their control preferences. Brains work different.
DMGlol: Sam D:
Barb4rian: Bye Sam
ContingentCat: oh mo a man
frnknstn: RIP Sam
BrowneePointz: WOT WOT
Getter404: wort wort wort
BraveOthello: RIP Sam
BrowneePointz: ahhhh WOAH THE LINE
Anubis169: Blarg?
Anubis169: Honk!
GhostValv:
Mai_Andra: The Skipper told us to skip diagnostics. Perhaps we should have expected that...
BraveOthello: The elites know who the Chief is. They call him The Demon
ekimekim: is that helmet outline going to be there the whole time?
TehAmelie: did the game just tell us jumping makes you go up?
Lord_Hosk: Perhaps he shoudl have given you a weapon to test
BrowneePointz: Tbf they call ALL the Sparts Demons
jacqui_lantern234: AAAAA
BrowneePointz: Spartans*
jacqui_lantern234: kremling ass scream
MenomeAlice: It's no Quake 2
Anubis169: no, don't punch the living daylights out of it...
moist_but_crunchy: the legendary Dubbo!
LadyAiluros: dat music
BrowneePointz: back during this they specifically call John THE Demon cuz they thought they got all the Spartans when they Glassed Reach
Anubis169: why does the cinematic have motion blur turned on?
Marvoleath: None guns, left dead?
LadyAiluros: hoping for a soundtrack re-relase here
BrowneePointz: cuz UE5 @Anubis169
Lord_Hosk: I feel like these fellas would know to give their weapon to the legendary master chief if they were being boarded.
ladyjessica: Mr halo
BrowneePointz: As long as the composer doesn't get the money, same @LadyAiluros
BraveOthello: I do not like new Keyes
LadyAiluros: @BrowneePointz what happened with the composer?
ekimekim: the new faces all seem...off
MenomeAlice: Does Master Chief's suit still jack him off in this?
wedge_x: @LadyAiluros Marty O'Donnell is an enormous POS
richard_ermen: Since when are Cannons defensive options??
LadyAiluros: @wedge_x Interesting. How much did he do for Destiny?
PixelArtDragon: @MenomeAlice Now with extra polygons
BrowneePointz: @wedge_x ye what wedge said. Marty turned into a MASSIVE Homophobic Politician
LadyAiluros: I know he's on some of the credits
wedge_x: some, until they finally ditched him
TehAmelie: prepare for ctrl-X
soulessgamer: I believe he is just a demon until the end of this game. Then he becomes THE demon.
Lord_Hosk: Couldn't they just delete her?
richard_ermen: This feels more involved than what we had back in 2008.
Alahmnat: @Lord_Hosk Microsoft is too invested in AI
TXC2: or at least those files ?
BrowneePointz: Too valuable an asset. and in the fall of reach book she has some information that needs to get back to earth
underhill33: pew pew
AugmentingPath: your hands seem a little big for that gun
SixPairsOfFeet: oh my god he's cortana's dad??
Mai_Andra: Well maybe you shouldn't have scraped all that data just to train your AI ?
tdapenguin: @Lord_Hosk Where's the emergency delete-it-all magnet?
TXC2: phrasing?
Commodore_Perry_GG: Never yank an AI
Barb4rian: TOS?
richard_ermen: Far too late for that xD
RatherLargeToad: *yoink*
malsareus: did she sign up for your family stream?
BraveOthello: @Lord_Hosk That would be a last resort, smart AIs are too valuable
TehAmelie: man, files never transfer that fast for me
richard_ermen: We're gonna shoot sentients in a few minutes to rival any war.
ekimekim: keep your hands off his main cannon
SixPairsOfFeet: wow she's a microsd
calculated_uncertainties: @Commodore_Perry_GG At least there was some level of consent?
Lord_Hosk: I like chief better when he was a silent protagonist
SixPairsOfFeet: she was on a 7 inch floppy disk in the original, wasn't she?
Alahmnat:
oh hey, it's that gun from Destiny 
TXC2:
stop looking at the Camera like you know you're delivering an "iconic" line
BrowneePointz: yea, i don't remember if they go into it in the og game, but in the prequel BOOK, she has information from Reach that ABSOLUTELY needs to get back to Earth iirc
CabooseFails: Why aren't you using the most powerful weapon in the game?
moist_but_crunchy: does the assault rifle shoot straight now?
richard_ermen: @Lord_Hosk Aye. This forced badass stoic protag thing is overdone.
BraveOthello: @Lord_Hosk He never was though, he always spoke, just not much
SixPairsOfFeet: @CabooseFails your mind!
TehAmelie: what i want to know is if the pistol is still busted as heck
BrowneePointz: yea the M6D is still nuts in this
EvilBadman: @Lord_Hosk he says stuff, just not a lot
LadyAiluros: Dood get the plasma guns
CabooseFails: Human pistol > every other gun
richard_ermen: Buttons....denied.
brainbosh: if you swap out the pistol does that mean his daughter cant get the gun lol
TXC2: F for Femelee
SixPairsOfFeet: press F to ... pay "respects"
EvilBadman: G prob?
PixelArtDragon: @TXC2 Hard to read that not in a Ferengi voice
TehAmelie: i'm gonna guess G or Ctrl
BrowneePointz: The one thing to note James, you can't do the overload plasma pistol weapon swap melee kill insta in this. they added weapon swap lag with the animation
TXC2: PixelArtDragon yeah, that's my bad
BraveOthello: @BrowneePointz Ruined
SajuukSjet: i mean, it could be Q, for grenade, it's a bungie game derivative
BrowneePointz: @BraveOthello You can still "do it" but just not instantly
Anubis169: oh that green matrix over your hands is new
EvilBadman: @BrowneePointz I thought I was losing my mind when I first tried
richard_ermen: "Instantly adopting alien tech"....why did you not think of that before?? Why did none of our soldiers get this?
BrowneePointz: yea, the new weapon swap animation is slower
SajuukSjet: Cortana is Special
soulessgamer: I didn't realize they made power ups equipment in this game. Just....why?
Anubis169: Pistol is still best imo
SajuukSjet: because it was early 2000's game design soulessgamer
BrowneePointz: yea they did NOT rebalance this thing James
BrowneePointz: it's just as busted as you remember
CabooseFails: Aim for the face though
TehAmelie: Quake 3 did it so they had to i guess
moist_but_crunchy: just noticed he doesn't do the HK slap on the rifle anymore. shame
EvilBadman: @soulessgamer Gives you an option of when to use?
Anubis169: even in the original, pistol is extremely OP, and the shots don't disappear or have bullet drop
Anubis169: you can snipe with it
jacqui_lantern234: @BrowneePointz but i DONT remember! i never halo'd, not even once
CabooseFails: Does it still have zoom?
BrowneePointz: @jacqui_lantern234 if you ever get the chance, play through the Master Chief Collection. Halos 1-3 are still very, very good
Garfy400: I holo 1ed on PC back in the day but then they didn't release the rest
toady0s: pistol op
Alahmnat: having also never Halo'd, I can see why Forerunner is the way that it is in D2
jacqui_lantern234: @BrowneePointz i would if i enjoyed FPS games, but sadly they arent for me
PixelArtDragon: Harder, Chief! I mean. sir.
SajuukSjet:
alahmnat: yeah, they basically just imported the ideal
TehAmelie: the legend says, someone on the dev team liked surprising everyone in deathmatches by making the pistol being 4x more powerful than it should, and that's how they shipped it
LadyAiluros: I have 1-3 for my 360 I need to get bac to it
LadyAiluros: @Alahmnat IKR
TXC2:
PixelArtDragon never call an NCO Sir
RoastedGravy: Woah, did you dye your bead, Wiggins?
RoastedGravy: Oh wait, it's James.
BrowneePointz: Also valid Jacqui. Remind me to send you the Elite Unvirgin'ing the Olive Oil meme on one of our discords cuz I think you'd die laughing @jacqui_lantern234
Diabore: hello, is the pistol as cracked as it should be?
richard_ermen: Cortana sounds...weirdly chipper.
RoastedGravy:
Sorry, I thought this was a Wiggins stream. 
LadyAiluros: I played through the OG on my G4 MDD Mac. I thought that looked good
ekimekim: it's really weird how they've obviously committed to a word-for-word repeat of all voice lines, but with *wildly* different delivery
richard_ermen: They're aliens James, what are they supposed to do? Sing the anthem instead at you?
SajuukSjet: richard_ermen: she's very certain about quite a lot of things
BrowneePointz: "Leader down! Run! RUUUUUN!" has been a vocal stim of mine for 25 years
richard_ermen: Is she secretly a traitor? I never played any Halo after the first on pc.
moist_but_crunchy: @ekimekim wonder if there'll be a mod to put the og delivery of the lines back in
LadyAiluros: and no one told me about the pistol being busted ;;
RoastedGravy: I learned that Halo is actually a pretty silly game.
EvilBadman: @richard_ermen No. She's trusted companion through the first three
SajuukSjet: Halo was a very unique game in it's tone, indeed
jacqui_lantern234:
@RoastedGravy no, instead we get to watch a GOOD streamer
SajuukSjet: which honestly was one of the reasons why it stuck
RoastedGravy: But Paul isn't here
PixelArtDragon: I will say, the lighting on that "run through windowed hallway while there are explosions in space" was nice. Shame it lasted all of 3 seconds.
LadyAiluros: It's Bungie, they love their AIs that go off the rails - Durandal, Rasputin...
soulessgamer: @EvilBadman Sure, and I get why that feel like the right answer. I've just been in convos about stuff like this on Halo and Halo like projects and it messes with the encounter balance so much.
GhostValv: 4?
richard_ermen: Is it just me or does the remaster feel more visually strenuous?
Alahmnat: why 4?
EvilBadman:
@soulessgamer You can make this game ridiculously hard if people want be miserable
TehAmelie: the big red Xes on hits seem quite distracting
MDHWrites: The red X is also classic for Halo
BrowneePointz: oh huh, that is new
RoastedGravy: The enemies feel like out of Conker's Bad Fur Day or smth
TehAmelie: keeps making me think you're not allowed to do something
moist_but_crunchy: ha one of the grunts said 2I just wet myself"
BrowneePointz: The Grunts are VERy silly
BrowneePointz: and always have been
LadyAiluros:
@RoastedGravy The Covvies are wild. Wait till you dee the Flood
moist_but_crunchy: @BrowneePointz didn't seem silly in reach, you couldn't even understand them
SixPairsOfFeet:
can you disarm and spare them? 
Mai_Andra: to let you know that particular bullet sponge is gone..
jacqui_lantern234: yeah, these grunts are so silly and i mean this as a compliment
BrowneePointz: for chat that's never played halo, there's a series of hidden "skulls" that add things like Big head mode etc etc
RoastedGravy: >Quickly >No timer
jacqui_lantern234: theyre SO STUPID (/affectionate)
BrowneePointz: the most famous being "Grunt's Birthday" which makes headshot kills pop with confetti as you hear kids yelling "yaaaaay"
Lysander_salamander: delightful little muppets
BraveOthello: Fun fact, many grunts speak at least one human language because they have an illicit trade in human entertainment
Lord_Hosk: "don't call me sir... Im a master chief"
ekimekim: I do appreciate some of these cutscene updates
BrowneePointz: but yea, Halo has always balanced serious Mil SciFi with a bit of Sci Fi horror and good use of comedy
TXC2: "where do you want to die?"
Lysander_salamander: oh, they changed the cutscene
richard_ermen: I have bad news for you, trooper A. There's a reason the game isn't called "Trooper Adventures".
TehAmelie: cooool
brainbosh: the chief has negative ass
RoastedGravy: Oh, I've heard this song
BrowneePointz: alright, how many choir kids practiced singing this in the school bathrooms
BrowneePointz: where the acoustics echoed
Alahmnat: is it a needle drop when it's the game's own soundtrack?
RatherLargeToad: Space Druids chant
jacqui_lantern234:
@brainbosh he doesnt need an ass to be sexy
SajuukSjet: i appreciate the reduction in glow on the forerunner structures in the remake over the remaster
Strebenherz: wait do they not know what the halo ring is or were they talking about something else
SixPairsOfFeet: hey look the thing looks like the only word in the lyrics: O
BrowneePointz: nope. this was the first time seeing one
Lysander_salamander: I mean, he isn't wearing his seatbelt and they're in a hard landing. He's like the steel ball in a smoothie bottle.
BrowneePointz: they were fleeing the Glassing of Reach
BrowneePointz: jumped here, and WTF IS THAT?
Strebenherz: oh this is like a prequel?
TXC2: the eponymous Halo
RoastedGravy: Holy shit, he talks??
PixelArtDragon: The game's whole plot is "huh, what's this and what is it for OH SHIT"
EvilBadman: @Strebenherz No, this is literally HAlo 1
Decaped: very action figurey
brainbosh: Nope its the first game
BraveOthello: @Strebenherz Remake of the OG
ladyjessica: they forgot about one thing, the halos.
RoastedGravy: I thought he was a silent protag
Lysander_salamander: yes he talks
BrowneePointz: no. halo 1 starts in media res @Strebenherz
Alahmnat: @BrowneePointz which is kinda weird, because nobody in the bridge remarked on it
TXC2: Strebenherz nope, this is a remaster of the first game
jacqui_lantern234:
now THATS a john halo if ive ever seen one
Strebenherz: HUH okay
Diabore: chief is fine, everyone else is dead because theres a chief bouncing around the cabin
brainbosh: They just randomly found the Halo while running away
Marvoleath:
@EvilBadman so, just a quel
BrowneePointz: there ARE some bonus bits iirc, but yea Halo 1 started In Media Res
TXC2: BAD Door
brainbosh: jesus put on seatbelts
Lysander_salamander: They were strapped down. How did they fly out?
accountmadeforants: Can't believe Boeing is still around in the far future of Halo
TXC2: like Apollo 1 levels of bad door
BraveOthello: @brainbosh Yes. "Randomly" ... Definitely a blind jump ...
Diabore: this game looks pretty
CabooseFails: Yup! Don't check!
The_Color_Twelve: oh yea
SnackPak_: looks the same to me
RoastedGravy: Probably in your hearts
ghizmou: we didn't know any better
TreeVor84: just like I remember it
Critterbot: Y-yeah, spitting image!
PixelArtDragon: Not that far off, actually. I played it a few months ago
EvilBadman: We remember them as such
SajuukSjet: it really didn't James >D
jacqui_lantern234:
EXACTLY the same graphics
RatherLargeToad: I think there’s a graphics toggle button
brainbosh: Looks exactly as we remember it
Anubis169: You should be able to switch between old and new graphics in this
RoastedGravy: Can you jump off the cliff?
Lysander_salamander: that gun is so shiny
richard_ermen: 25 years ago....that was the year Max Payne 1 released. I wished we had graphics like this 25 years ago.
Anubis169: no i think you can
Anubis169: there's a hotkey
TXC2: the AI Upscaling of your brain is unbeaten
Lysander_salamander: Like in Anniversary Edition
RoastedGravy:
accountmadeforants: @RatherLargeToad I think that was the other remake?
jacqui_lantern234: WEEEEEEEE
BrowneePointz: even the difference between the MCC and this is night and day
GhostValv: o7
TXC2: !clips
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
Mai_Andra:
So, when will this be out on PS5?
Anubis169:
TO ATLANTIS!! manGR 
soulessgamer: You can in the original remaster not this remake.
RoastedGravy:
Thank you
ekimekim: real games don't have invisible walls
Anubis169:
*
Alahmnat: RIP flawless
SajuukSjet: anubis169: the remaster proved why that was deeply problematic
DeM0nFiRe: It would be funny if there was no checkpoint there
TXC2:
booo, deathless run over
MenomeAlice: It's been a long time since I played Halo, but did Master Chief talk in the original?
SixPairsOfFeet: see that ring in the distance? you can go there!
Wilcroft:
PixelArtDragon: RIP flawless
RoastedGravy: No deathless run, but you gotta admit, it was real funny
TXC2: MenomeAlice yes
brainbosh: Yes, he talked
Lysander_salamander: Yes he talked in the original
Diabore: @MenomeAlice i think a few words
BrowneePointz: yes. John has always talked, but a man of few words
Pal_Friendpatine: Mass Effect: Legendary Edition was the same way. Looked as we remembered the game looking.
brainbosh: Never saw his face is the thing
ekimekim: yeah they've not changed a single line of dialogue so far
Anubis169: ohh wait a sec
ekimekim: including his lines
RoastedGravy:
John Halo?
Anubis169: no there's no old graphics in this particular version
brainbosh: Gordon Freeman was the opposite, no talk all face
soulessgamer: He was less talkative though. 343 likes to make Master Chief talk a lot.
accountmadeforants: The graphics toggle is real, but it's part of the Master Chief Collection, the other remake
Diabore: @Anubis169 yeah master chief collection had it though
Anubis169: thought this was Master Chief Collection
BrowneePointz: His ACTUAL canonical name is John. the govt scrubbed his last name
SajuukSjet: anubis169: indeed, it was really problematic in the Anniversary edition, turns out having new models over old hit boxes made things not work
EvilBadman: MCC was in Blam, this is in UE5
BrowneePointz: no MCC was 10 years ago
accountmadeforants: Ah good old sniper pistol
MenomeAlice: Fair enough, I misremembered him as a silent type in the first game
Brozard: Pistol still OP
BrowneePointz: sorry, TWELVE years ago
Lysander_salamander: did they make the distance shots with the handgun weaker?
RoastedGravy: How many remakes are there?
EvilBadman: hahano
BrowneePointz: nope. still the same damage falloff
Lysander_salamander: At least two remakes
soulessgamer: @EvilBadman It's still Blam under the hood but the renderer is UE5.
BraveOthello: @MenomeAlice He doesn't talk much but he's always had conversations and even one liners
Anubis169: SajuukSjet: I remember... the new walls had bits taken out but the collider was still a flat plane
BrowneePointz: same damage falloff, lack of bullet drop, same damage
BrowneePointz: the m6d is still a menace
Alahmnat: there's a reason I said "the first one: Again: Reloaded", hehe
RoastedGravy: I never had an Xbox growing up, so Halo is elusive to me.
TXC2: ^
Mai_Andra:
even I remember a lot of this. (I've only played the first one, and it was a very long time ago...) 
Diabore: @RoastedGravy saaaaame
RoastedGravy: I played Metroid Prime and figured Halo was like that
frnknstn: I remember Halo 1 on PC having lower pistol damage than on Xbox.
Lysander_salamander: I wish they would put more tank sequences into the game
PixelArtDragon: Is there friendly fire in this version?
RoastedGravy:
GhostValv:
\
Strebenherz: clipping that xD
LadyAiluros: yes
jacqui_lantern234:
james how could you?!?!
RoastedGravy: Testing all the things today
BraveOthello: Mechanically it's basically identical to the original
RoastedGravy: Intrusive Thoughts: The Game
BrowneePointz: Mechanically the only real changes I know of is No Sword Flying and no multiplayer
Bassios: It's a real shame you can't get the snifer riple this early
Brozard: It they put friendly fire in the game, then they intend you to shoot your teammates
ekimekim: sword flying isn't even in this game originally?
Brozard: *for you
ekimekim: swords aren't in this game originally
BraveOthello: Elites had swords, but the player couldn't use them
jacqui_lantern234:
@ekimekim but what about S Words?
accountmadeforants: @ekimekim You just couldn't pick them up, right?
soulessgamer: They added a lot to the remake sandbox.
ekimekim: yeah, i mean as a player weapon
RoastedGravy: You don't have a good throwing arm
Alahmnat: yeah those were some really wimpy throws lol
BrowneePointz: @ekimekim it's in the MCC
BrowneePointz: and I don't know what all differentiates in the sandbox between the MCC version of Halo 1 vs this
RoastedGravy: Mendozaaaaaaa!
RoastedGravy: Oh right, the other thing I remember about Halo. Is the Warthog in this game?
BrowneePointz: @RoastedGravy if you can find it on sale, definitely pick up the Master chief collection
BrowneePointz: IF you like shooters*
BraveOthello: SMG,BR, and sword are in this one, for one
Alahmnat: ah, no mantling
ekimekim: ah, i never played MCC. or even Halo 2? I fell off the series when it became xbox exclusive
PixelArtDragon: @RoastedGravy There's a Warthog section soon!
LadyAiluros: mantling not a thing Bungie would figure out until D2
Bassios: @RoastedGravy Yeah but probably not the sweet railgun warthog they added in Halo 2
TehAmelie: gasp!
BraveOthello: @RoastedGravy Heck yes that Halo
BrowneePointz: GAUSS HOG BABY! @Bassios
TXC2:
not got them 15 year old reflexes any more
Bassios: @BrowneePointz Gauss Hog Best Hog
RoastedGravy: I mean, I'm so-so on first person shooters. Not the biggest fan, but I can do alright with them.
PixelArtDragon: I dunno, I think it looks more like a Puma
TehAmelie: they actively try to flank you and stuff, it's positively unfair
RoastedGravy: It's a genre I've rarely touched.
Marvoleath: everyone knows that weapons in shooters, by power, go Knife > Pistol > everything else
tdapenguin: @PixelArtDragon Chupa-thingy
Alahmnat: I would be stunned if there was no Warthog, that thing was in the MacWorld promo before Microsoft bought the studio
jacqui_lantern234:
make way for pisstol!!!
RoastedGravy: I can't remember the last FPS I played. I think it was a Call of Duty game at someone's house, but I can't remember which for the life of me.
BrowneePointz: If you can get it cheap, I recommend playing through at least the trilogy, because they stand the test of time and you can go "oh so here's where all the modern games are emulating from and doing it worse!" @RoastedGravy
TXC2:
jacqui_lantern234
RoastedGravy: I'll check them out.
BrowneePointz: like, i'm not trying to glaze these games too hard, but Halo 1-3 are still the Diamonds in the Shooter Crown for a reason
SajuukSjet: Foehammer is a great callsign
RayFK:
I'm learning so much about why James kept to the bottom of the Infinite scoreboard
kragmabutch: halo 1-3 are very good, as someone who only played them for the first time recently and only has childhood halo nostalgia for halo 4 multiplayer lmao
Alahmnat:
Strebenherz: jesus Ray
Strebenherz: xD
RayFK: Alright fucker let's go
LadyAiluros: Warthog!!!!
frnknstn: Warthog? That looks more like a Puma
RayFK: Just gotta....reinstall infinite
RoastedGravy: The gloves are off
gualdhar: you know, multiplayer Halo would make a great Crossing The Streams...
BrowneePointz:
and yet you were actively popping off every time James got his hands on a sniper @RayFK 
RoastedGravy: There are a bunch of Xbox games I'd love to play.
LadyAiluros: @gualdhar This
TehAmelie: AI is so clever
RoastedGravy: Halo, Fable
BrowneePointz: Slide hog baybee!
TommyGoodale subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 3 months, currently on a 1 month streak!

Thanks for subscribing, TommyGoodale! (Today's storm count: 1)
TXC2:
Fucking master detective Cortanna here
TXC2: SUB HYPE BEGINS
RoastedGravy: Also HELL YEAH WARTHOG
SixPairsOfFeet: Halo Man: Battle Network???
ekimekim: I do love "the aliens are actually technological idiots" as a reason why your super hacker companion can do everything
BraveOthello: From what I remember the cave was originally rock and the line made sense, but it was never change when the level was
RoastedGravy: But can you drive the Warthog off the side?
Alahmnat: boy, Cortana really putting in the work to be "most character of all time" with the VO today
Bassios: Where's the Ham Bush?
jacqui_lantern234:
AMBUSH?! NO!!! AM PERSON!!!!!
RayFK: @BrowneePointz Yeah, but I was getting MORE pop offs
MenomeAlice: I was always more a Half-Life/Quake person back in the day, but I can't knock the feeling of landing a sticky grenade and having the target panic
LadyAiluros: Did they re-record all the dialogue?
RoastedGravy: I think I have Half-Life on Steam. idk why
RoastedGravy: I don't have Windows so I can't play it.
BraveOthello: @LadyAiluros I don't know if it was every line, but all the main characters
BrowneePointz: I mean, tbf, Cortana is the exposition vehicle AND the guide
BrowneePointz: so yea, she's Chatty
SixPairsOfFeet: son, the ledge!
TXC2: RoastedGravy I have half life 2, it was free 2 years ago
BrowneePointz: and for 2001 it was a big deal
PixelArtDragon: @MenomeAlice It's hard to bring back the feeling of "sniping classmates from across the map with the pistol in the high school computer lab"
frnknstn: I maintain the level design in Halo 1 is actively unpleasant, but the combat is so good. Bungee knew what they were doing, even back then.
jacqui_lantern234:
DeM0nFiRe:
Alahmnat: @BrowneePointz she's just so... flat? Like, there's no urgency or concern in her voice
TehAmelie: i did always like the plasma rifle's thing of trying to keep it hot without overheating
TreeVor84: almost fell down a hole
LadyAiluros: @frnknstn Nothing beats good Bungie gunplay
BrowneePointz: oh I don't know about THIS delivery, she was delightfully animated in her voice in the OG
Diabore: i wonder if they made the warthog less shit
BrowneePointz: but if it's the same VA, that's on the Voice Director, not the actress
BrowneePointz: Oh no this thing is still a fishtail machine @Diabore
ekimekim: "Hot lifeboats in your area"
BraveOthello: @BrowneePointz Same VAs for Chief and Cortana
Alahmnat: oh yeah, I tend to assume the direction is the problem
BrowneePointz: yea then a flatter delivery is on the VD
TehAmelie: i'm gonna assume the voice director was actual Cortana
EvilBadman: hey guess they thought would be hilarious to add for this
RayFK: and James is one of the few LRR WITH a license
PixelArtDragon: Very easy to Austin Powers it
Bassios: It's a new game engine, they had the ability to make the 'Hogs less awful to drive... and yet
MenomeAlice: You will believe that I got the Warthog stuck on so much scenery in the original PC port
BraveOthello: They added jackal snipers here?! Why?!
RoastedGravy: Gotta be faithful
Lord_Hosk: James, have you considered. Git-en gud?
EvilBadman:
@BraveOthello
frnknstn: Maybe the worse line read are from a pick-up session closer to release? The more "gamey" lines seem worse.
SajuukSjet:
this is looking like a faithful warthog implementation
BraveOthello: Oh I hate the plasma rifle sounds
SixPairsOfFeet: combat roll!
BrowneePointz: this is the same VD as CP2077 and infinite @TehAmelie
RoastedGravy: imma brb. getting me some chicken
EvilBadman: human guns at the crashed ship iirc
MenomeAlice: Y cant John Halo punch
BraveOthello: @MenomeAlice He can, really hard. But so can elites
SajuukSjet: menomealice: he can, but you gotta get close for that
ekimekim: smg? that's new
RayFK: Wait SMG?
EvilBadman: Yep, SMG, but no dual
BraveOthello: SMG, BR, and sword are all usable in this one
EvilBadman: The jackal sniper beam if it falls off the rock is also new
EvilBadman: I forget if the Battle Rifle shows up in main campaign or the new prequel levels.
BrowneePointz: the beam rifle or the needle rifle?
BrowneePointz: @EvilBadman
EvilBadman: @BrowneePointz the covie sniper
TehAmelie: i don't even remember a SMG
EvilBadman: Actually both are in, iitc
BrowneePointz: ah probably the beam rifle
SajuukSjet: it also eats ammo like nothing, so, sick at the cost of resupply
TXC2:
it's kinda wild that this came out in 2001, and it still took a decade before Space Marine came out
BrowneePointz: yea I think they're both in. they added 9 weapons
3 raiders from NeoGetz have joined!
TXC2: hello Raiders
NeoGetz: Evening All, Morduu
SixPairsOfFeet: did you just throw away the gun that the commander wanted you to bring to his daughter?
ghizmou: wait a minute, Halo is only 25 years old
TehAmelie: we're stinkies
Wolfstrike_NL: Morduuu o/
MenomeAlice: Please stop reminding me of my mortality
BraveOthello: @ghizmou Shhhhh
jacqui_lantern234:
"putrid apes" is just what Adam calls us
MWGNZ: "hey ma, they talked about us on the radio"
TXC2: !greetings
LRRbot: Greetings, you Feral Maakas!
TehAmelie: "in a good way?"
Alahmnat: @jacqui_lantern234 I'm sure it's a magic card G can call on for crack-a-pack too
Critterbot: Snipper Riffle get!
SajuukSjet:
yeah, this _is_ the Halo 1 experience
SajuukSjet: you gotta be adaptable with what drops
Pal_Friendpatine: Wow videogames have simultaneously stayed the same and come a long way in the last 25 years.
EvilBadman: needler my beloved
TehAmelie: give him your gun. . .give him all the guns
TXC2:
Pal_Friendpatine kinda like society
Pal_Friendpatine: @txc2 Hey, your words 👍
EvilBadman:
Once you find a skull, you can play in remix mode with randomizes the enemies. Flood can show up on the first level
Alahmnat: that sounds awful
NeoGetz: I never played the original just absorbed it through machinimam, how's the remake?
Diabore: sure, just stoip shooting
TXC2: well stop shooting
RayFK: Just hit em with your empty sniper rifle
jacqui_lantern234: adam voice: "THE NEEDLER"
Lord_Hosk: Isn't the point of the Ammo to put it in the enemy and not keep it?
richard_ermen: The music certainly still slaps hard
MWGNZ: gotta say, the halo music slaps
Bassios: I wonder if they got Steve Vai back in to record more stuff for it
jacqui_lantern234: YOURE STILL GREAT, JAMES!!!!!
tdapenguin: @NeoGetz Seems familiar!
jacqui_lantern234: GOTTEM
jacqui_lantern234:
get absolutely roasted, streamer
LadyAiluros: I miss Old Bungie ;;
RayFK: They can't take an empty gun
SajuukSjet:
gotta go punch them James
TXC2: "this is a rescue! does anyone have a gun I can use?!"
MenomeAlice: MELEE BUUUUUILD
A_Dub888: who need gun when have fist?
SajuukSjet:
Pelican still one of the coolest SciFi dropships
Lord_Hosk: "could you please leave your guns when you extract?"
BrowneePointz: yes this is UE5
TehAmelie: it carries neither truth nor reconciliation, ironically
TXC2:
I'm not sure "Truth and Reconciliation" is a good name for WAR SHIP
LadyAiluros: you can still only have 2 guns ;;
SajuukSjet: ladyailuros: i mean, that's what this game is designed around
BraveOthello: Wow they uh ... So Johnson's line reads huh
Pal_Friendpatine: @tehamelie that’s because truth and reconciliation are found on foot apparently
LadyAiluros:
Yeah I know. I was just so used to 3
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
LadyAiluros: damn James
TehAmelie: the game really wants you to pick up new guns every five seconds. evolve or something
SixPairsOfFeet: nobody heard that i'm sure
TehAmelie: strong theme, but i don't know if the players ever agreed
MenomeAlice: If you had a giant space warship, what would you call it? 🤔
LadyAiluros: I mean it's a very Culture-esque name for a ship
Alahmnat:
@MenomeAlice Fuckhammer
TXC2:
MenomeAlice Ben Sisko's motherfucking Pimp hand
TehAmelie: @MenomeAlice GSU Two Robocops
LadyAiluros: Yeee
LadyAiluros: GSU Fuck Around and Find Out
SubscribensteinsMonster: GSU, The Pillar of my Dick
TXC2: GSU you are free to test that assumption
LadyAiluros: I like that one @TXC2
TehAmelie: Culture ships choose their own names, and well, Two Robocops choose the name of the two bravest men she ever knew
LadyAiluros: and they can get long so you can totally add "At your convienence" and still be okay
LadyAiluros: there's one in I think Hydrogen Sonatoa that goes on forever
TXC2: LadyAiluros ah good
LadyAiluros: I highly recommend the Culture books if you have not read them
Critterbot: You rascal.
SajuukSjet: it is nice they took out the static health
TXC2: "Invisible" by Duran Duran plays
MenomeAlice: I think I'm going with an old reliable for my space battleship name
TehAmelie: nice bounce
MenomeAlice: GSU More Powerful Than Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, and the Incredible Hulk Put Together
DeM0nFiRe: You can't chump block with john halo
TXC2: right chat I'm off
TXC2: Goodnight everybody, and thanks for streaming James
Alahmnat: thanks Cortana
TehAmelie: byee
NotCainNorAbel: good night
DeM0nFiRe:
@TXC2 
Alahmnat: *thanks Cortana*
LadyAiluros: Cortana and Ghost. Captains Obvious.
TehAmelie: Cortana proves eerily prescient about the observational abilities of AI
Alahmnat:
@TehAmelie
TehAmelie: come to think, you could largely replace her with Clippy
MenomeAlice: @TehAmelie "Master Chief, maybe you could eat Tide Pods in front of the Covenant"
Alahmnat: even Ghost is better than this
EvilBadman: I mean one of MS' first AI foray's was name Cortana
LadyAiluros: It still is, isn't it/
EvilBadman: co-pilot now
Alahmnat: nah, they've rebadged everything Copilot now
RayFK: Baby game telling you how to kill Hunters. Back in my day you just died a shit load before you figured it out
LadyAiluros: @Alahmnat Yeah he gets a lot better as the series progresses
Alahmnat: which is funny, because Cortana would have actually been a reasonable name for their new BS
LadyAiluros: I'm pretty sure I uef the gun emplace,ents om the Hunters
Alahmnat: @LadyAiluros to be fair, I've only experienced D2 Ghost, so I probably missed all the *really* bad parts
TehAmelie: one bullet left!
LadyAiluros: He was a little more stiff in D1, esp original campaign.
LadyAiluros: but there is a great exotic mission in Rise of Iron where he does make my weepy
TehAmelie: weee
TehAmelie: jinx!
SixPairsOfFeet: I bet it's not a trap
MenomeAlice: Covenant make everything a shiny purple. I could hang with them.
Programmerman1: the sword has ammo?
MenomeAlice: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOUR SWORD IS OUT OF AMMO
BrowneePointz: It has a battery
BrowneePointz: outta juice
Alahmnat: did the sniper rifle have an aim cursor in the original? It feels
Alahmnat: *it feels OP
WriterRaven flops into chat and coughs up a lung
richard_ermen: Would it help if you used more grenades?
WintermuteRealms: Man I love this game!
EvilBadman: yeah even heroic is "haha you die"
frnknstn: same set piece 8 times in a row, cutscene, then do the same set piece 8 more times on the way out
TehAmelie: i do like how they make an endless series of boxes full of enemies not repetitive
Diabore: james didnt want "nut puncher" difficulty
DandyGeek: and yet you'll smash blocks all morning long
DandyGeek:
well, you're in good company, at least
TehAmelie: not as repetitive as that sounds anyway
MenomeAlice: @DandyGeek The blocks mostly don't fight back
BrowneePointz: wanna try that again james?
Marvoleath: !phrasing
LRRbot: You heard them.
DandyGeek:
@MenomeAlice mostly? Sounds like someone needs to mod those bricks to fight back a little harder 
Alahmnat: careful there James, lol
TehAmelie: Minecraft mod idea: to mine a block, you have to play a little shooter minigame
Alahmnat: that sounds *miserable*
TehAmelie: okay, maybe there's just a chance it triggers when you attempt mining
WriterRaven: splat
MenomeAlice: @TehAmelie You've just invented Undertale
SixPairsOfFeet: where did she locate the code? DoorCopyWorld Dot Com?
EvilBadman: I do love they made the Hunters being a mass of worms way more apparent
BrowneePointz: br was in 2
BrowneePointz: but I think they added it in this
EvilBadman: It was in 2, but shows up in this version of 1
BrowneePointz: they added 9 guns to this and the BR was 1
BrowneePointz: was one of them*
brainbosh: Original had pistol, assault rifle, sniper rifle, and rocket launcher?
kragmabutch: unfortunately they didn't add John Halo's perfect gun the covenant carbine
SixPairsOfFeet: "battle" rifle? what are the other kinds of rifle in this? fishing rifle? party rifle?
EvilBadman: @brainbosh shotty too
BrowneePointz: the Br is is triple burst shot, vs the full auto AR @SixPairsOfFeet
TehAmelie: at least you don't have to weigh the pros and cons of a battle rifle and combat rifle
TehAmelie: MGS5 i think that was. . .
MenomeAlice: @SixPairsOfFeet Eton Rifles for Paul Weller fans
BrowneePointz: looks like they added the BR, Sword, SMG, Needle and Beam Rifles, Spiker, Brute Plasma Rifle, and Fuel Rod Cannon and Sentinel Beam are fully useable in this unlike the OG @LoadingReadyRun
SixPairsOfFeet: battle rifle, combat rifle, altercation rifle, clash rifle, warfare rifle
SixPairsOfFeet: and of course, the fight rifle
TehAmelie: kerfuffle rifle
frnknstn: the skirmish rifle, the kerfuffle rifle and the fracas rifle
SixPairsOfFeet: don't forget the disagreement pistol
MenomeAlice: @SixPairsOfFeet T-rifle for dessert
GhostValv:
notpsion: tune back in and watch james get stickied instantly
TehAmelie: nice drift
notpsion: perfect
NeoGetz: Good flight
BrowneePointz: so yea some good additions from 2 and 3
TehAmelie: but when will we invent a polite disagreement rifle
MenomeAlice: @TehAmelie Debate Me Rifle
SixPairsOfFeet: Compromise Cannon
TehAmelie: conflict of interest carbine
RoastedGravy: Back with chicken
CabooseFails: That's a weird gun name
SixPairsOfFeet: Dispute Demolisher
WriterRaven: Designated Marksman Divorce Proceedings
TehAmelie: awkward social situation shotgun
MenomeAlice: @TehAmelie I've been ASS Shotgunned before
TehAmelie: hee hee hoo hoo
NeoGetz:
he he he
brainbosh: wow, didn't drop it
RoastedGravy: ROLL CREDITS
jacqui_lantern234: THE SAID THE THING
EvilBadman: the cutscenes have weird issues, especially if you pause
jacqui_lantern234: THEY*
shushu2539: one halo to rule them all
TehAmelie: what if we. . .tarnish the halo
WiJohn: I like "okay sir" guy
MenomeAlice: Halo, is it me you're looking for
SixPairsOfFeet: all these messages were humorous names for guns, and they were all very important
MenomeAlice: Bedtime for me though, thanks for the trip down memory lane. I may clown on Halo a bit, but it is still a fun time.
BrowneePointz: I mean, yall are making gun names
BrowneePointz: but the Rocket Launcher is LITERALLY called the Spanker
BrowneePointz: SPNKr
WriterRaven: @BrowneePointz I 'ardly know 'er.
TehAmelie: of course, that's a tradition going back to the BFG 9000
TehAmelie: hi again!
SixPairsOfFeet: I don't think anything can beat the ASS Shotgun though
TheAinMAP:
TehAmelie: yeah that's when i knew i was done
LadyAiluros: yes
LadyAiluros: yes he is
LadyAiluros: at least in the Mac version he was.
TehAmelie: at least he's clever enough to leave everything to John Halo
NonchalantAvenger: who's jackBoxing tonight?
notpsion: is it me or do these cutscenes have no sauce
TehAmelie: the intro had some sweet shots
notpsion: the double hunter squish was funny but it felt so weightless
NonchalantAvenger: goat crew
notpsion: idk, maybe im just a hater :V
RoastedGravy: You tellin me a jack boxed this game?
EvilBadman: @RoastedGravy mind jacking this box
tyrsredritehand: The cut scenes seem to have been speed up or compressed.
EvilBadman: Quintessential Halo 1 mission ahoy
RoastedGravy: Remember when games used to be silly.
RoastedGravy: I do
RoastedGravy: 3,000 years ago
notpsion: just 7000 more years until rita repulsa is free, then
Diabore: should we tune in next week too james
SixPairsOfFeet: john halo never sits his ass down
RoastedGravy: I mean would you, with that suit?
NapalmSideburns: Good ol' trusty sniper pistol!
RoastedGravy: Good news: Pistol. Bad news: Still bad at sniping.
NonchalantAvenger: watching ur CTS's with a J is better than most sitcoms these day
SixPairsOfFeet: if the suit is partially motorized maybe you can sit down anywhere you like without needing a seat
CabooseFails: Unstoppable killing machine (except when they kill you)
TehAmelie: sitting down just makes him a bigger liability in a crowded dropship, gotta brace himself
BrowneePointz: James
BrowneePointz: do me a favor
RoastedGravy: Can you go into the water?
BrowneePointz: go out in the water and crouch
SixPairsOfFeet: i guess you really wouldn't want to get a master chief boot to the head
notpsion: you only need one good water
BrowneePointz: oof
AlnessVT: Look, the ancient alien Halo builders needed to cut corners somewhere
RoastedGravy: Damn, can't sink like a stone
SajuukSjet:
look, the Monitor saw you liked That Wave, and is now generating nothing else but That Wave
Alahmnat: whooooops
BrowneePointz: in UE5 I was KINDA hoping it'd be water sim
tenthtechpriest: shallow beach
SixPairsOfFeet: does this count as sub ocean?
Strebenherz: Is it weird i kinda like that the water is just a surface texture
RoastedGravy: What, you thought the devs expected people to crouch in the water?
EvilBadman: They didn't program the driving ai, I wish I were kidding
notpsion: these marines have opinions about driving
Alahmnat: surface texture water is fine, but letting you clip through the plane without having an unerwater filter is bad
TehAmelie: death from above (relative)
mrjujubeans: why did they redo the Cortana lines?
BrowneePointz: ye the marines could drive
EvilBadman: I swear there was, but maybe I onlu co-op'ed
BrowneePointz: and kill you
BrowneePointz: most of the time
Programmerman1: yeah sometimes marines would take the drivers seat so you could be the gunner
tyrsredritehand: There was driving script in the first game.
SajuukSjet: in the first game? i thought that only came in later
Strebenherz: @mrjujubeans artistic liscence or contract stuff? dunno
SixPairsOfFeet: let me see that thog, that thog tho-tho-thog thog
brainbosh: See I thought it was just me remembering playing co op
TehAmelie: that was a textbook drive-by
RayFK: *pulls up Subway Surfers*
tyrsredritehand: Looks like some sort of big cat. Like a puma.
baldy_dnd_nerd: gotta love remakes that remove features, if it could drive before that is
notpsion: hey let's hope they removed the library
EvilBadman: ooh james knows the speedrun strat
notpsion:
baldy_dnd_nerd: oh no, he dosent know
TehAmelie: i feel like the vehicle physics are way better, so maybe that broke the driver AI
NapalmSideburns: Austin Powers it in there
EvilBadman: jamming the hog down there before the door closes
RoastedGravy: Your Uber Eats, sir
TehAmelie: i mean better in a less hilarious way
Alahmnat: this is genuinely hilarious
EvilBadman: Yeah, if you can beat the doors closing, you bypass a huge chunk of the mission

TehAmelie: we have time for crab
shushu2539:

QuantumTwitch: how is the plasma pistol against the heavies
NapalmSideburns: It sounds like Halo
thatguysteve2709: Is it still the same pistol
SajuukSjet:
gotta replace those dead weapons you're carrying around
AtomicAlchemical: Does it give you a fond feeling for the days of your youth?
TehAmelie: i remember exactly once getting a heavy with one shot in the back. felt like christmas
QuantumTwitch: brings me back to playing halo with my buddy on his xbox
ContingentCat: Can't dig holes
thatguysteve2709: Ahhh cortana how I have missed you
RoastedGravy: SHAFT! AAA-AAAH
TheMerricat:
So chat, I'm waking up late today... did we actually get 'sent a code' for Halo: Campaign Evolved or are we cheating in the game?
CabooseFails: you have one
CabooseFails: Switch to it then replace
CabooseFails: (or it's empty)
SixPairsOfFeet: beach episode time?
RoastedGravy: Master Chief in a bikini?
SajuukSjet:
one copy only, james
brainbosh: You had an empty one and its gets weird with having two of the same gun?
Pal_Friendpatine: interesting 🧐. Doesn’t look like Wiggins has played this on his stream yet
RoastedGravy: Don't worry, he'll get there
TheMerricat: @Pal_Friendpatine Wiggins is saving this one for the final game of his Halo World Tour that he's doing right now.
Pal_Friendpatine: Ah that Makes sense. Now I understand. thank you!

RoastedGravy:
Wow Charge Beam, copying Metroid smh
TommyGoodale: sometimes its fun to be stupid
BusTed: "aim for the bushes"
RoastedGravy: I like the run animation
thatguysteve2709: Master Chief has fallen from orbit I hope he makes that jump
Cutriss: Remember when MS wanted to make Cortana the « Siri » of their brand, and how, like so many other MS things, they chickened out and abandoned it too soon
RoastedGravy: Like if you look up while doing it, it's like Master Chief is going "WHEEEEEEE!"
BusTed: honk honk
BusTed: ty
TommyGoodale: The Warthog really is the perfect vehicle.
A_Dub888: !y
LRRbot: Goose value 71
QuantumTwitch: how many hogs can you stack
TheAinMAP:
TehAmelie: warthog is our only friend who doesn't crumble for a little frienly fire
BusTed:
RoastedGravy:
They've been there the whole time?!
SixPairsOfFeet: can't make it through right-side-up, but what about on its side though?
TheMerricat:
Wow, turns out when you don't play these maps on legendary you can actually mess around.
TheMerricat:
Last night Wiggins streamed the Gravemind mission from Halo 2, on legendary the majority of his stream was trying to get out of the starting room of the level.
Cutriss: « I’m a genius! » « Oh no! »
BrowneePointz: that's the mission with the Breaking Benjamin song if you remember it James
Mr_Horrible: wheedling your way through High Charity on Legendary, I have memories of going 1 inch at a time through that level
EvilBadman: H2 Legendary is not a joke, they overtuned so much
BrowneePointz: that was the most hype moment I'd ever experienced in my life at 12 years old
BusTed: welp, time to go punchin'
richard_ermen: This is weird. I don't remember this being so difficult, even on normal.
TheMerricat:
I mean Wiggins just ran up and pucnhed them in the back. 
BusTed:
EvilBadman: there's modifiers to give you infinite ammo too
LadyAiluros: I'm fairly sure I had a rocket launcher for this section, I think back down the beach your'e suposed to to a crashed Pelican
TehAmelie: *villager noise*
Mr_Horrible: cartographer wouldn't be until AFK at the earliest
Mr_Horrible: they're gonna be waiting a while
QuantumTwitch: well you need a good amount of enemies to shoot
SquareDotCube: It's a big circle, why do we need a map
Cptasparagus: does Bungie even still exist to send codes?
TehAmelie: i think this is where i first heard "bork bork bork" from. we're very behind on Muppets in this country
BrowneePointz: wot wot wot!
TehAmelie: immersion ruined!
EvilBadman: @Cptasparagus That's not even the right company for the last...15 years?
TehAmelie: yip yip!
BrowneePointz: 1. yes, but they're doing Marathon stuff, 2. this is 343 industries @Cptasparagus
BrowneePointz: ope that's not even right
BrowneePointz: this is "Halo Studios"
Dread_Pirate_Westley: That's generally your job in this kind of game.
richard_ermen: But...if less bad guys...who to shoot?
ContingentCat: or at least fewer bad guys
Athelgar: these enemy bases, so full of bad guys, really inconvenient
TehAmelie: good guys, bad guys, we're the guys with two guns
LadyAiluros: Rock Anthem for Saving the World
TehAmelie: (that are empty)

TehAmelie: i think he said unbelievable
TehAmelie: James having a heated gamer moment hue hue
TheAinMAP:
SquareDotCube: I dunno why but I want to see a mod that changes the blood and particles to Mountain Dew and Doritos respectively
Mr_Horrible: like get a couch up a flight of switchback stairs
BusTed: They've got this
TehAmelie: sometimes a healing gun would be nice
atinyspacemarine: Oh man, anyone else miss the halo 3 edition gamerfuel?
BusTed: deuces
TehAmelie: how deep can these tunnels be, it's just a little space ring
idontgetmyrealname: @atinyspacemarine isnt that the lightning rush flavor they sell at KFC now?
LostThePirate: Are they rereleasing Halo for a 17th time? Why'd y'all get sent a Halo code, lol?
Pal_Friendpatine: The orange one @atinyspacemarine ?
atinyspacemarine: @idontgetmyrealname I don't think I've been to a KFC in like 20 years, so, maybe?
HadesLeprechaun: they did that already a while ago
HadesLeprechaun: so this is the second one
BrowneePointz: this is a remake
BrowneePointz: MCC was a remaster
TehAmelie: it's like Tetris, but with guns
LostThePirate:
Gods, I was kidding about another rerelease 
Pal_Friendpatine: Guntris?
HadesLeprechaun: @BrowneePointz that's what I was going to ask, they actually changed like mechanics and levels and stuff?
AdamYMHMI: This remaster, of course, starts with the deaths of Batman's parents.
BrowneePointz: @HadesLeprechaun they added some b onus missions, added 9 guns, and some gun changes
EvilBadman: MCC Remaster was the H1 Anniversary edition, anyways
atinyspacemarine: Does it, uh, work now?
idontgetmyrealname: @HadesLeprechaun not a ton added some of the guns from later games, added a few prequel missions, but mostly just Halo 1 but this time built in UE5
TehAmelie: rerecorded all the dialogue word for word but with some odd direction
Dread_Pirate_Westley:
BusTed:
GapFiller:
A_Dub888: does this count as falling down a hole?
Mx_Asher_: That's one way to get a visual.
AdamYMHMI: She did ask you to get a visual on the canyon below, so good job
TehAmelie: dang, they're so shiny
TehAmelie: is this some special winter outfits?
BrowneePointz: good ole Grunt Kamikaze
TehAmelie: by the way this bridge looks like it was designed with AI
atinyspacemarine: What looks ai about the bridge?
TehAmelie: the walls and holes mostly
HadesLeprechaun: I might be in the minority on this, but of the Halos, of which I've beaten most, the first one felt the absolute worst to go back to. Mazelike, repetitive level design absolutely grated on me by the end
HadesLeprechaun: I respect what it did for the genre, particularly on consoles, but it's far from the one I'd want a remake of if they aren't actually...changing it
TehAmelie: or possibly a bridge made by two warring people who wanted to be able to reach each other but fight when they did it
atinyspacemarine: It's a classic, but we've come a long way
EvilBadman: The library got cut down a bit, thankfully
GapFiller: atinyspacemarine Citizen Kane was groundbreaking once eh
atinyspacemarine: It's worth keeping in mind they made those mistakes because they were the first ones to make them.
atinyspacemarine: Halo 2 is a testament to their skill and ability to learn
atinyspacemarine: @GapFiller Yeah, basically.
BrowneePointz: they weren't the FIRST first, but among the first, and yea it did revolutionize the genre

TehAmelie: they have. . .faces
7gorobei: polygon budget was teeny tiny

AdamYMHMI: Now go load up a Doom playthrough and compare there

GapFiller: something something Goldeneye Turbo mode
gualdhar: the eye can't see more than 30 fps James, didn't you know?

Alahmnat: Steve Jobs showcased it at MacWorld

EvilBadman: I mean before this console FPS bar was Goldeneye

LostThePirate: This was top of the line graphics in its day
