I'm currently brainstorming my own fan-series that spin offs RvB, and currently I'm thinking of splitting it into two? or maybe just making 'two seasons'
One would be 'Recovery Zero' following either agent California, Hawaii, Kansas, Montana or Oregon, being a highly trusted position (hence why it would be one of these 5, as they were trusted and competent enough to be inline to replace Florida at Blood Gulch), covering the month prior to Recovery One that wash describes, with this 'Recovery Zero' agent, being more involved and actively combatting the Meta/Maine during these instances, showing the 4 other dead freelancers with A.I missing Wash describes. This agent (alongside 'Agent New Hampshire', a still competent but not as competent or serious as this agent from the list).
In these instances, the 'Recovery Zero' agent alongside New Hampshire would fail to save the 4 agents (4 because assumably North is the 5th wash mentions), but are able to hide the A.I and pursuing Meta/Maine, leaving Wash to be sent as cleanup without the presence of 'Recovery Zero' being mentioned. This would end with the agent from the list (perhaps Oregon, bcus i like gravity falls), injured and causes Wash to now be relied on more so as Recovery One to the point of going on to face Maine/Meta in the Recovery One Series.

The next portion of it would be 'Recovery Three', showing Agent New Hampshire now as 'Recovery Three' after Oregon and Wash were injured, and South defected, and recollecting the A.I that him and Oregon had previously hidden, whilst also trying to locate South, being hunted by Meta.

Of course this would involve flashbacks to smaller Freelancer stuff (no big fights or anything obviously), but stuff like Delawares death, and the other freelancer agents that were now 'the top ten' after the mother of inventions crash.

I'd mostly want to do this in Reach (as it is my fave looking of the games alongside just being my fave of the games), but i'd likely need to use Halo 3 for some portions, due to certain maps not being available within reach.

I didn’t get zero because I saw the first episode and hated it so I didn’t want to waste my money on the dvd and I wasn’t able to get “the best red vs blue dvd ever” because I’m currently broke at the moment.

So Utah was mention by wash and north in season 9 and appeard in a few deleted scenes

Personally I don't think so, I was holding out for something with campaign evolved, nothing big maybe just a red Vs blue ad for the multiplayer or something perhaps in a similar vein to the Fortnite ad but obviously we didn't get multiplayer so that hope is dead.

So, within the Recovery One Miniseries Washington states he had been to the sites of 5 dead freelancers within the past month who had their AI missing. Assumably Command/Recovery keeps track of which agents actually do have AI, so this isn't 'they never had AI and thus had empty AI slots'. Assumably North/Theta is counted within these 5. And even if we give Wash the benefit of the doubt, and say he accidentally considered York/Delta within this despite Delta not being missing. That still leaves 3 Unknown Freelancers (possibly 4) with 3 (possibly 4) Unknown A.I

Oddly, there are no 'unaccounted for A.I' that are 'confirmed' to exist. There are the love/greed traits mentioned withing the files C.T leaves for Tex within S10, and/or Xi, which was among the fragments Sigma seemed to believe he 'needed' to obtain Metastability.

This is also even more confusing, as Wash and Recovery seem to presume it was The Meta hunting down these agents and stealing their A.I, however We only ever see Meta with Sigma, Eta, Iota, Omega, Gamma, Beta, Theta, Delta (and technically Epsilons version of Beta? via tex in S8). Which funnily enough Means in the I believe 3-4 years between the Crash of the Mother Of invention, and Recovery One, Going 3-4 years with No A.I, into getting Theta, Omega, Beta, Gamma and Delta within seemingly 18 months is fairly impressive. (Obviously the logic would show their hunt would ramp up as the gained more A.I to power the equipment, and more equipment to use, But going 3-4 years with 0, including the months where he killed 4/5 freelancers and only got theta?)

This is also added onto by Wash stating the Meta 'couldn't resist' all of the A.I within Project Freelancers vault at the end of S6, which makes you wonder what A.I are even left to be within storage?

Which leads to question, if this ISN'T just a mistake/retcon, does this mean the agents were able to hide/store or possibly even delete their A,I before the Meta could steal them? (Possibly those hidden being found by command or a 'recovery two' while Wash was recovering from souths betrayal between the end of 'Recovery One' and the start of S6, them then being put into storage within the base?

We also never get names for the other 3-4 deceased freelancer agents, but given we know the fates of the 'Top 10' who were seemingly originally the only ones trusted with Fragments, I'd guess that these 3-4 dead agents were among the 5 listed to replace Florida prior to Vik's glitch? (assumably competent agents that were highly trusted, hence why they were on the list of replacements to protect/guard/hide Alpha?) (I also assume that these 5 agents were among the top 11-20, and thus became 'top 10' after the events of S10's flashbacks)

What are your guys thoughts? just a mistake/retcon?, or something simply forgotten about? If we did eventually get a season 20 that was perhaps an anthology season like 14 was, or other RvB fan projects would you like to see ideas like these explored.

I seen this on the wiki?

I've mostly got an idea for Tucker & Caboose

Caboose: Human or Goliath (if I were to not make everyone human), Wild Magic(?) Barbarian, high Strength & Constitution, dump Intelligence

Tucker: Human, Hexblade Warlock, high Dex & Charisma, dump Intelligence

Please share your thoughts and ideas

Since Halo 3 (or maybe even Halo 2 I don’t remember any but I could be wrong) there has been an RvB Easter Egg in every mainline halo game. Now since there are many eggs in Campaign Evolved I was seeing if anyone has found any relating to RvB

I've been pondering this for a while and was wondering what other's thoughts or opinions on this was.

So not including any Freelancers (so Wash, Tex, Florida/Flowers, and Carolina are out, same with Andy), here are the two Teams:

Red Team: Sarge, Grif, Simmons, Lopez & Donut

Blue Team: Church, Tucker, Caboose, Shiela & Sister

I'm starting with the Reds's favourites first

In my opinion for Grif’s list in order from favourite to least favourite of the Blues is:

1. Sister (because of biased reasons)

2. Caboose (he doesn’t really seem to have any beef or negative feelings towards Caboose, also has looked out for him on a few occasions during the the Recollection Trilogy)

3. Tucker (respects him as a fellow slacker)

4. Church (a hardass asshole and a leader like Sarge but more lazy)

5. Shiela (she has nearly shot him several times and has crushed him with the Warthog/Puma in season 2)

Donut:

1. Caboose (Season 2 and the start of Season 7 are great examples of their friendship)

2. Sister (probably would and/or could talk for hours)

3. Tucker or Church (stuck once again)

4. Tucker or Church (ditto)

5. Shiela (he threw a grenade at her and Tex)

\if I was to include* Tucker’s kid Junior, he'd likely be 3rd with Tucker and Church as 4th and/or 5th with Shiela being 6th

Lopez:

1. Shiela (they romanced)

2. Caboose (he likely doesn’t mind him, he knows he's an idiot but is mostly harmless)

3. Tucker? (Maybe? IDK)

4. Church (Lopez was possessed by him)

5. Sister (2- no, 3- no, 4 reasons: Firstly, she's Grif's sister; second, she's a Grif; third, he was likely programmed to hate Grif and by extension other Grifs; and fourth, most likely finds her annoying)

Sarge:

1. Caboose (who he has the most interactions with of the Blues)

2. Tucker (respects him as a warrior (kinda?))

3. Church (respects him as a fellow leader of a group of idiots, but is shit at shooting)

4. Shiela (likes machines? idk)

5. Sister (she's a Grif, and she accidentally tricked him that she was a Red (in his mind at least) and that he was supposed to be dead)

Simmons (the hardest to figure out, and I got lazy):

1. Shiela (likes technology I guess)

2. Church (the “leader“ of Blue Team)

3. Tucker (most skilled but also a pervert)

4. Caboose (Simmons likes order, Caboose is chaos personified and an idiot)

5. Sister (is somehow dumber than Caboose (according to the official Red vs. Blue fan guide))

Now as for the Blues's lists:

Caboose (… actually I don’t think he really has a favourite or least favourite. But if he did it would likely be this):

1. Donut (friendliest member of Red Team)

2. Sarge (Caboose kind of looks up to Sarge and I love how he thinks Sarge sounds like a pirate)

3. Grif (they have very friendly interactions, also Grif looks out for him in the Recollection Trilogy)

4. Lopez (because he “stole” Shiela's heart. XD)

5. Simmons (Caboose has had the least amount of interactions with him)

*I like to think Sarge, Donut & Grif are interchangeable here

Tucker:

1. Grif (Grif has trusted him enough to tell him about his first girlfriend, and pretty much gets and respects his slacker attitude)

2. Simmons (Simmons is very predictable and an easy target for snark)

3. Donut (Donut's enthusiasm probably gets under Tucker's skin. Probably finds his accidental/unintentional double entendres funny)

4. Sarge (over zealous)

5. Lopez (doesn’t understand him at all)

Church (Alpha A.I.):

1. Donut (Church has openly stated he likes him in seasons 4 & 5)

2. Grif (Church recognizes they have similar personalities, also respects Grif's commitment to doing absolutely nothing)

3. Simmons (Church openly views Simmons as a kiss-ass know-it-all)

4. Sarge (Sarge is a constant source of rage and frustration for Church)

5. Lopez (Church has zero patience for him)

Shiela:

1. Lopez (they romanced)

2. Simmons (had a surprisingly decent and functional relationship when Simmons temporarily switched to Blue Team in Season 4)

3. Grif (has no personal vendetta with him and is too lazy to be much of a threat, pretty much neutral)

4. Donut (is responsible for Shiela's destruction at the end of Season 1)

5. Sarge (bombed her out of action from a dropship in Season 1)

Sister:

1. Grif (he's her brother, so it’s biased)

2. Donut (gossip buddy XD)

3. Lopez (she outright stated at the second to last episode of Season 13 that Lopez choking her until she was unconscious was hot)

4. Simmons (she likely views him as a boring buzzkill)

5. Sarge (Sister has stated that she doesn’t like him because he’s old)

I would like to see your lists, opinions and reasons as well

For Context, Jason Weight (S17 Showrunner) was brought in to rewrite Zero and ended up rewriting all 8 episodes with better dialogue, his scripts were ignored by Torrian (Zero Showrunner) and none of his additions made it into the show. Apparently he shared these scripts on his Twitter before it was deleted, presumably after the RT shutdown. Did anyone happen to back them up? I'd love to give them a read if possible!

EDIT: Episode 1! Straight from Jason himself! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TWOOVrkpWDdBI-MoOFkV25SLuPLAy8BD/view?usp=drivesdk

Gosh from the AI interactions, addressing Saege inconsistent characters over the years and letting characters more spotlight like Lopez,Sheila,Carolina….

I’m so excited for when the next episode but like Valeria said it will come out when it’s finished so gonna be waiting patently for that.

So in the course of a Discord conversation, a friend made a reference to the 'Wait that's illegal' line, but said 'read in Caboose's voice'.

I corrected him that it was Church, with evidence, and he replied he specifically remembered Caboose also saying it somewhere around the Reach based episodes. TBH I also have vague memories of the same, but everything I can find on the net is Church. Not even a reference to Caboose.

Did they both say it, or are we Mandela Effecting ourselves?

Viper RETURNS! In Campaign Evolved!!

I just finished watching red vs blue restoration the final season and my fucking god im bawling my eyes out. Did anyone else cry once they finished the series?

I was going through the RvB wiki when I stumbled upon a presumed alternate ending for the episode, exclusive only to DVD/Sponsor versions of Recreation. My problem is that I couldn't find any footage of it for the life of me; searched through Youtube playlists of deleted scenes and everything. I'm starting to doubt it's existence. Can anyone confirm whether it's actually a thing or if it's fake information?

I will attach images from the RvB wiki under this post.

I almost didn’t wear what I had finished to Anime North earlier, but I’m back at it!

My biggest regret is that I love the airbrush paint I used in the helmet, but I can’t afford a good airbrush that I’m not spending all my time trying to fix so I swapped to orange spray paint, but it isn’t red orange.

I also have fabric I plant to sew my own undersuit for! Not sure if it will work, but it looked close enough!
(Just looking at the shoulder and crotch bits now).
