Not the first FP marine mod actually. I remember one I think called "Escape" which uses the same fp arm set as me and likely the same biped from echo482. And echo says the fp arms arent his and from the custom edition days.

They are exceedingly rare though and this was probably one of the few successful ones.

People are getting sick of third person marine mods but oftentimes its a necessity, as good FP arms/legs might not exist for a given game. Halo CE and 3 are the only ones with decent fp arm tags made for them. Reach has none, 2 has one also by echo but Im not a fan. Idgaf about 4 and beyond. And ODST obviously comes prebuilt with ODST arms, but those arent designed for base 2007 H3 ai odsts.

Overall, apart from a few irritating things about this mod, this mod IS well done, and I hope to see more from the author in the future.

Kudos, and cheers!

I feel like having the filter be removed after exiting the "starting" room where everyone dies to emphasize that this isn't just a stupid recording anymore, but Private Jenkins' fight for survival (and brought back again near the end of the level when 343 GS picks you up again, to remind you that this IS, in fact, a recording), and having spores latch onto you and draw SOME health away from you but then de-attach themselves to give the player a fighting chance, would make this mod infinitely better than it already is.

However, aside from those two things, despite the fact that the mod seems very lacking at times (since this quite literally is just 343 GS except you get to skip the first parts; I was disappointed to find out that we wouldn't fight until Foehammer picked all of us up), I was actually amazed and relieved to see Covenant forces outside NOT target Jenkins and the Marine Survivors, which is something I've yet to see be done before.

Honestly, apart from a few things that really make this mod harder than it needs to be? This mod is actually the first FP marine mod to ever come out for Halo: CE. That's very good, actually.

The camera makes visibility very, VERY hard, to the point where if you don't know where you're going or what to shoot at, you're gonna have a hard and unfun time with this mod.
What ALSO makes this mod unfun is the fact that once a flood spore (y'know... the smallest, yet most plentiful and clustered enemies in the game? With an EMPHASIS on that in this modpack as well? Your LITERAL main enemy this level?) latches onto you? You might as well re-do your checkpoint; there's no getting out of that one.

Overall, these two things paired together makes this mod go from a very well-crafted and fun show of the Halo community's ingenuity, TO a very well-crafted, frustrating, irritatingly difficult and challenging show of the Halo community's ingenuity.

The camera filter alone makes this very challenging

Can you give the option to be in 3rd person it would be great O.O

Anyone know where you're supposed to go from the area with the exploding light bridge console? I seem to be trapped in that area

@MikeE Crazy, almost like that's the point or something.

You know whats fun? playing as the marines in the mission when we first see the flood.
you know whats not fun? standing around when a single flood form attaches you and you're forced to wait till you die because there is no mechanic to get them off you. gauanteed death that ruins the fun of this mod.

To anyone having trouble with the infinite loading screen glitch. You need to download the multiplayer section of Halo CE

Great, great mod, personal favourite

Will there be a version for The Library as well?

God I wish Halo went more into their horror aspect, this scratches such a good itch for that. Awesome job man!

I think what makes this mod so incredible compared to other marine mods is that its not just a different biped with the same gameplay, but there are few and far between moments where this kind of game would really work. Other things coming to mind would be Halo 2 through the quarantine zone or Halo 3 in Voi after it gets hit by the Flood ship.

ah well either way this was a thrilling mod to play with my bruhv. best of luck to whatever else you do

Maybe kinda not really probably not it depends

Anything more, playing as a marine in first person, wouldnt be exactly like this. I'm focusing on different projects, and I'm also apart of the combat eclipsed team now so thats a focus too.

are you gonna make anymore of these? me and my bruuv love playing as weak little marines against the deadly flood. The stress of even a single combat infection form 1 shoting you is fantastic

download CE multiplayer

Infinite loading screen

the mod's rating caught my attention... had to try it. I haven't felt this way about a halo game in a long time. 10/10

Pants filled, awesome mod

I know this doesn't work atm but was this doable in coop? Also love the mod <3

Take your time

Sorry everyone. I got extremely sick over the weekend and I'm still very sick. It'll take a few days before I'm healthy enough to fix my mods to be compatible with the current mcc version. See yall <3

This mod doesn't appear to be showing up. I've installed and uninstalled it multiple times,any fixes?

I keep getting an infinite load screen

+rep good stuff even in coop; but eyes be looking funny after

mod wont launch, just sits on the loading screen forever

Spasagnaghett has an L take

Never been so terrified of the popcorn flood before, jesus christ

This is pretty much just Guilty Spark after the PVT Jenkins flood ambush, which is what makes this disappointing.

Masterpiece.

aliens vibes

10/10

is there a way to play third person ?

If you are sensitive to the helmet camera filter, then do not play this mod or only play the bonus level.

Also good point on the bonus level infections. I can update that soon as that'd be very easy to change.

This mod is great, I just wish that on the bonus level the flood forms would de-latch as an infection form being instant death adds tension to the first level but on the bonus level it just ends up being more frustrating than anything after a while.

The main level is great and I went for both endings on Legendary. Over all a very good mod and an awesome idea.

this hurts my eyes to play with the vhs filter over it

Really good mod

Great fun!

That was fun. Felt very vulnerable as a marine. It was like a horror level for me.

It never loaded for me.

I actually quite liked this one! I thought ending where you retreat back up the original elevator to be the better one and more apt for a marine. Also fucking awesome to be able to save multiple marines along the way by clearing a route to the pelican. Escaping with a fully loaded pelican feels gooooood. Screen stuff is annoying tbh but it's not so much an eye strain as it is an eye sore. I find myself squinting to be able to see anything farther than 15-20 ft away from me and the visual is annoying. But scripting, and overall game play is a lot of fun. I was never able to save a marine or anyone from the beginning which made me sad. Tried a bunch and although I was able to get farther in the dialogue and keep them alive longer than usual, the multiple waves of infection forms from above kills the runs every time. Bit of a gimmick to do that more than once I think.

Can i play it with a friend?

Doesnt load

While I really like this a lot, I think you should've disabled the camera effect by the time action starts because it becomes hard to see and it really hurts my eyes playing it like this, Or at least is faded to where the player can actually see whats going on is my gripe with it.

I really like the idea of infection forms being dangerous to the player, where when one grabs you its game set and match for you. (I wonder what would've happened if Bungie did this or there was a skull when you have shields burned out while as Chief.)

More Covenant enemy enounters would've been nice, especially maybe at the start where we have a small battle before entering the facility or even inside the facility before the flood encounter would've been cool.

Overall with the feedback and minor gripes, I really enjoyed this what if.

the second ending is if you go to the elevator which is usually destroyed in the main game btw

Both endings were awesome

How do u get 2nd ending??

Awesome mod loved all of it reccomend
