ONI // REAP-X R&D PRODUCTION NOTES

If the end of the Covenant War allowed us to run in the field of analyzing Forerunner technology, the awakening of the Didact in ‘57 and subsequent events concerning Requiem and the Created uprising pushed us to sprint.

Of particular interest to our ongoing efforts to unlock the potential of this ancient technology are design seeds—machine cells encoded with data to assemble anything from advanced combat skin to entire starships.

Helmet footage from Blue Team engaging the Didact on Gamma Halo demonstrated the Promethean’s armor was adaptively capable of being attuned to weaponry used against him. If we could harness this capability for Mjolnir, it could be the biggest evolution for Spartan combat since energy shielding.

Our experiments with the former have begun yielding minimal, but promising results. Will follow up with further information shortly...

I recently made a program that will allow you to force checkpoints during the campaign of the Halo games on PC. It includes the MCC, the original CE PC port, Custom Edition, and Halo 2 Vista. I know there's a checkpoint manager that already exists, but I wanted to make something simpler and also wanted to learn more about programming something that plays around with memory. I will post a GitHub link below. Please let me know if you run into any issues with it!

Please also make sure you disable any relevant anti-cheat software before using it.

In halo 2 the grunts side with the elites while the jackels side with the brutes and the prophets.

Why then in halo 3 are the grunts fighting alongside the brutes and jackels ?

I've been jumping between games recently and noticed it and I'm wondering was it ever addressed anywhere ?
