Description
Halo 3 campaign with hordes of AI for large battles and challenging coop.

AI changes:

- 4x more AI when allowed.
- AI will provide suppressing fire at extreme ranges with their weapons.
- Can trade weapons with the Arbiter.
- Marines and Friendly Elites get a small health buff.
- Hunters get a small health nerf.

Weapon changes:

- 2x longer range projectiles.
- Shotgun gains 4x range.
- Brute shot range is similar to Halo 2.
- Players start with more ammo at the start of each mission.
- Most weapons have doubled ammo reserves.
- Energy sword does not lose ammo on kills.
- Battle Rifle is fully automatic, with similar rate of fire to original.
- Battle Rifle and Carbine get a 3x scope.
- Sentinel Beam gains 15% heat efficiency.
- SMG deals 20% more damage.
- Assault Rifle no longer fires in 2 shot bursts, allowing for more precise firing patterns.
- Weapon abandonment time increased 5x.
- Spartan Laser reworked; less damage, faster firing, more ammo.

Vehicle Changes:

- 4x longer 'Turnover time' for land vehicles.
- Wraith and Scorpion gunner seats are 1st person.
- Warthog, Prowler, and Hornet passenger seats are 1st person.
- Warthog's rear-wheel steering is enabled for tight turning maneuvers.

Known Issues:

Graphical bugs may occur when AI count is high. I have tried to reduce this as much as possible while trying to keep large battles. Slower PC's will experience more graphical issues.

@urmum - Haven’t tried it. Give it a go on built-in version!

@shadowed but did you go into theatre mode?

Legendary Iron is a huge challenge. I only have beaten this on Legendary Iron once. I believe in you!

We'll make it eventually!

The floor keeps collapsing before we can make any progress, and we do have iron on... but at least we know it's possible. I suppose we must keep suffering then...

@Clumsy - Yep many times! The sentinels are not given enhanced view distance like other AI on this specific level, so the player can stay outside of their range quite easily; especially if the driver lets the gunner take some out before moving closer.

The original version from 2021 had the sentinels given excellent view distance and it was insanely difficult on Legendary with iron.

Thanks! Have you beaten the last mission on legendary There's a couple parts in the warthog where there's like 40-50 sentinels with no cover. We managed to beat the first one only by flip-rolling the warthog like a cartoon across the open space and into the tunnel lmao, (after the first platform), but the second has two swarms back to back and we died at least two dozen times trying to drive past them/shoot them before the platform collapses before we gave up

Lowered the amount of workers getting killed by the hunters.

@Clumsy0015 - Thanks. I tried it multiple times without crashing but it is a lot of AI. I will try and find that squad tag. Sorry for the frustration!

All the workers exploding and ragdolling seems to cause crashes - it doesn't happen every time, but its enough to cause frustration after almost reaching the end on legendary
