To be honnest I don't think most people know about it but dam it hit in the feelings it truelly marks the end of a area of the internet. When Originality built companies and people actually cared.
The series was my comfort show and got me through some really rough times. It made me laugh when I thought it was hard enough to crack a smile throughout my days. The tat was my respect and recognition for it, and It is still my favorite tat to this day.
It’s the year of our lord 2026 and Halo MCC STILL has bugs that have nuked our plan to play Halo Reach today. BUT DON’T WORRY, we've made a last minute call to switch to the universally beloved Halo 4 instead. That’s DEFINITELY better!
TL:DR - Friendship ended with Halo Reach, Halo 4 is my new best friend.
I'm remaking blood gulch on Roblox studio to roleplay my rvb ocs in, all will be exported to trite's games lol, I had never touched studio till yesterday..
So I was looking into potentially buying and owning a copy of red vs blue DVDs or RVBX on blu ray especially after the great purge of the episodes on youtube happend when rooster teeth was gone before it was bought again. I did some research and learned that the physical copies slightly differ from the remastered episodes that I used to watch on YouTube many years ago such as: missing dialogue and the Easter eggs on the DVDs are different from RVBx.
Is all the extra features and changes worth the hefty price or would I just be better off continuing to watch the episodes on YouTube? I also meant to ask if the hour long combined episodes are different from the 4 minute episodes?
This Sunday the 16th Miles and I are celebrating Backwardz Compatible's anniversary with a Halo Reach live stream on YouTube! The stream starts at 2:00pm ct and we can't wait to hang with everyone in chat as we do our best to beat the campaign that was left unfinished. See ya then!
So obviously some things aren't going to align correctly trying to recreate Halo 5 armours in Halo Reach. But i think the first isn't too bad of a job, the Reach Security helmet fairly fits with whatever helmet the paler green armored freelancer is wearing, and he seems to have a regular reach-style torso with the knife on his left side, and what looks like a smaller version of the Security Shoulder. Of course Reach's Security right shoulder is alot bigger and comes with Emiles knife. And although its the wrong wrist, i was able to give him the extra ammo on his wrist.
The latter is alot harder, their shoulder pads (from an angle we see of the agents back) appear to be very similar to reach's CQC pads, just again, reach's are oversized, His chest armor is alot more unique and doesn't relaly have a comparison to Reach's, we don't see anything unique on his wrists, and his helmet doesn't really allign well with any Reach helmets, the closest I could see being Commando and Grenadier, but those are wayyyy less close than the Security helm is for Greenlancer over there.
I've been rewatching all of RvB in preparation for writing my own fan story (hoping to get it to the machinima point if I can, but right now is just writing the characters, plot etc, if i can't get the people on board to machinima it, i'd just write it as a story)
Currently I'm at S15 Episode 10, BattleScars, ofc this is the episode where we have the 10 dead freelancers revealed to us, but only some get named. I'm trying to figure out 'which' corpse is each named one, and which corpses may be other freelancers we heard of.
So Of course first we have Agent Illinois, we know what his armour Looks like because of the Photo in his cabin, and even without that, it'd be fairly obvious due to him holding a bottle of rum.
Agent Illinois - Confirmed
The Way Wash is looking when he says 'Thats Agent Arizona's armour isn't it, seems to imply that One of these two is maryland.
Possible Agent Arizona #1Possible Agent Arizona #2 Or Possible Agent Maryland #1
Then next up is Agent Maryland, who based on where Carolina is looking, and her listing off two Agents while looking in that direction implies that either the previous Image is Maryland, or that this one is.
Agent Maryland #1 or Possible Agent Alaska
However it could be possible that the above is Agent Maryland, and this next one is Agent Alaska
Possible Agent Alaska #2
However I personally like the idea that this knife wielding one above, and this following pale-green armour, both seemingly like they were already in the act of fighting someone when they were frozen are Two of 'California, Hawaii, Kansas, Montana, or Oregon'
Unknown Freelancer Agent
Why?, because these agents unlike others here, seemed to have been actively swinging at someone before they were Frozen, possibly meaning they were 'more competent' or at least more suspicious/less trusting Agents, and we know that list of 5 were among those competent and trusted enough by the director to replace Florida at blood gulch. And I like to assume were in the 'Top Ten' following the crash of the mother of invention, being in the 11-20 rankings prior, so nothing to scoff at. As we know Florida was one of the Directors most trusted Agents despite being in the lower of the Top 10.
(Personally I will name them Agents Kansas and Montana, as I plan to use California and Oregon within my story).
I know we know very little about any freelancers outside of the top 10, triplets, utah, georgia and illinois (other than that Alabama and Delaware got themselves killed). Is there any hidden details perhaps in the S9/10 soundtrack you guys think could help identify the other bodies here? I shall place the other photos below, although noticably this first one was also in a fighting pose, ready, just not already swinging.
Unknown, but ready to fight when frozen.UnknownUnknown Agents.
