You're just nitpicking at this point. We've seen other instances where needlers have delayed detonation. The episode where Chief saves Kai for example. A marine gets pierced by a barrage of needles in the chest. It takes a few seconds to explode. Kai mentions in another scene that the needles home in on flesh, avoiding armor. So Arbiter got shot. Several needles just straight up bounce off his armor. One managed to penetrate a bit. But obviously not all the way.

With Keyes' death, I think it's safe to assume that we are going to get little to no overlap with the plot from the games. They are subverting that story at every opportunity.

Nothing in this show makes sense. It flips between idiot plot and straight up nonsense if you think about any scene too long. From the macro scale where the simple premise of the 'higher ups' abandoning humanities biggest military force in order to 'fight another day', without even giving them warning enough to stall the enemy. Or cortana not being taken or deleted, which raises questions about other computer data... Earth... ... To the micro scale where marines leave defendable positions to die in the dark with no flashlights, elites forget about plasma rifles or cover until it's relevant, or how arbiter just kinda shows up to kill chief, isn't allowed to, and then leaves, without any reason for being there at all and abandoning an opportunity to capture chief.

Namely, why in the ever living fuck would Ackerson leave behind Cortana, one of the UNSCs most important intelligence and military assets, when the whole idea was to save assets to be able to win a fight another day. Another thing, why would the covenant not seize the opportunity to kill chief, the other Spartans, and capture Halsey, which are also extremely important military and intelligence assets. It’s like they just walk up there to kill some marines and fuck off? What purpose does that serve.

Someone else said it best, the thing that annoys me about the deaths of Keyes and Vannak wasn't that i liked them, it's that i was beginning to like Vannak and, tbh, i didn't really like Keyes all that much. They were shit characters in season 1 to begin with, while Vannak got some much needed personality, and Keyes, as you said, was hyper-dismissive in eps 1-3. Shit, i was watching the newest episode of a currently airing anime last night (it's had 7 eps so far) and i was leagues more upset at that character's death than i was at either death by Keyes and Vannak.

The problem is that none of these stories, characters, or scripts were written for Halo. These were failed stories and characters written for a completely different show or movie. The writers couldn't get funding for whatever the show they were written for. The writers and producers then decided to grab a popular video game franchise, cram their failed scripts and stories into it with little regard for the Halo story, lore, or characters. They knew all they had to do was make the loosest associations to the real Halo cannon and characters, along with throwing in words like "Winter Contingency". They then repitched the show as Halo, and it got made. It's the same crap that happens with practically every video game to tv or movie. That's how we get a Resident Evil show about to teenage sisters in high school because the story was originally a failed Young Adults Novel that had nothing to with Resident Evil whatsoever. It's also why it is absolutely horrid. I'm sorry, but I just can't keep supporting crap like this and ensuring that it will happen again and again and again. If you like it, then cool, but I'm sick of this happening to characters and IP's that I love.

3.5/10 for me.. Took forever for Chief to get to FleetCom and no armor at all makes this lackluster as it wouldve fit perfectly in this episode or atleast a older battle worn version that couldve been the OG Macworld version or something. Also Keyes death was so stupid and he shouldve commanded Perez to disconnect the lines or have a quick disconnect from the ship to the lines instead of the lines to the console.... Also wouldve helped if Soren did something at that moment to build up his character with Keyes and Halsey. Also Makee is making this show so worse by being back. And the whole gay blind albino black kamikaze scene is sooo /sigh lol I mean talking about a DEI ESG inclusion standard diversity equality sponsorship and identity hire. And wtf is up with the one scorpion tank and 20 marines for the main fleetcom evac... Makes the game Halo Reach seem sooo much greater... I was expecting some shuttles being shot down and waves of phantoms and carriers dropping in. While ODSTs and Spartan III's doing sidewinder attacks. Keyes couldve told Chief about his backup plan of the Pillar of Autumn being at the shipyard for repairs and it being their last ride out of here after helping the civilians evac from FleetCom.

I grew up playing the games and reading the novels. Call me a nerd, but I can't help but feel a nostalgic love for the universe created by the Halo IP; so watching this adaptation has felt like watching the slow, methodical torture of a loved one. At this point, I don't want my "gotta watch the train wreck" viewership to count towards some metric that Paramount+ touts as a positive, so I am done. The actors and creative team behind this adaptation could have done something magical. They could have been so loved by a massive community of die hard fans. Instead, they chose to pander. It would be funny if it wasn't so god damned sad.

The most interesting reveal to me this episode was John-117 explaining how he can see/predict the future. That explains some of his finishes of Covenant grunts and confidence overall. I'd prefer John recovers faster after a fight (as a Spartan, I image him having a heart rate of 40 bpm after taking out a Covenant Elite), and I think they could lean harder into him being really smart, as they showed in Season 1. As someone not originally invested in the Halo games, but just a sci-fi fan -- this is a really, really good show! Different mediums, people!

I dont care about either characters death. My problem is how fucking small this show feels, I felt this way about the video game as well. Reach is a planet of 500 million, it is the 2nd most fortified human world with hundreds of ships, a massive military infrastructure and 20 Super Mac cannons. This show has absolutely no sense of scale. Fleetcom, the most important location on the planet has 15 marines and a scorpion guard the bridge? Pathetic. Furthermore , Keyes is in charge of essentially planetary defense at this point , who gives a fuck about one cargo ship escaping with 50 onboard? Keyes should be in a war battered Fleetcom organizing and delegating hundreds of civilian evacuation ships and working with his naval fleet. It makes the show seem pathetically small. Also , you remove Spartan armor off planet (fine I get it, it actually makes sense despite me hating it. Spartan Armor is so cutting edge and valuable) , but you leave Cortana?! Cortana is the most brilliant human being to ever lives greatest invention. That is an unforgivable sin and lazy writing to produce an obvious outcome.

To be honest I was like: maybe this could be before the game: HALO:REACH (in this show universe of course). But then Keyes dies and I was like: Okay maybe not. 😂 But still i enjoyed it and teared up when reach was getting destroyed (and when Vannak with Keyes died.) Because HALO:REACH is my most favourite HALO game and seeing that destruction again... emotions were strong for me in this episode I really want to see that installation ring and flood at least in the last episode of this season. Please respect my opinion that I like this show 😄🙏 Have a nice day!

Chief and Keyes have a conversation about Orbital Defense Platforms(I think). Keyes said the Covenant are trying to disable them so that they can bring their entire fleet to Reach’s surface.

Did we really think Hollywood would create anything other than a watered down pile of crap that looks nothing like the original vision of the Bungie team? Story lines that resemble dead end mazes with no continuity and no logical progression. They have ruined every super hero legend we loved and are doing the same with Halo.

I can tell they are going for an Iron Man/Spiderman "You don't deserve the suit if you're nothing without it" vibe, and frankly I think they executed it quite well. But it just bugs me seeing Sliver Team without their armor. Especially when the reason sounds a bit forced. Also, somehow no one has an energy sheild in this season. I thought it might just be an VFX error in the first few episode (like that wooden plasma pistol in season 1), but apparently the technology just lost in between seasons I guess?

I agree it kind of fits with what the writers are trying to say but is not at all congruent with actual halo. And also doesn’t Vannak dying to the needle round kind of imply they do need the armor?

@@danielpickrell8311 bro we have eyes and saw the episode. We know in universe Ackerson took the armor. What we are fucking baffled by is the show runners writing the Spartans out of armor. Like it can’t be this hard to write a halo show. Give us Spartans in their armor killing covenant like come on. Without their armor, I could be watching any other show which makes me think that the writers want to write their own show and are just using the halo brand for easy eyeballs

@@carlosminetti3685 There's nothing wrong with Spartan's without armor. A Spartan is not just the mjolnir, but the highly augmented and trained soldier inside it. It's an interesting angle to explore, and it heightens the tension. Stories are allowed to innovate and change.

Is there ANYTHING at all that the halo community can do to fix this monstrosity of a show? Petitions? Asking nicely??? The halo community deserves much better than “Johnny rings and the tale of the missing armor”. I feel like most of the shows views are simply longtime fans hate-watching the show to see how bad it is. Something needs to change.

Cortana was purposefully left behind for Makee to take. Cortana can cause viruses to enemy computers, gather intel, cause division among the covenant, etc. Cortana will likely be the catalyst for a change in whose winning the war.

I see what they were going for, it's the point where all the characters die. BUT, it would only work if season 1 was good. Or like if there was a few extra episodes. It's insane how even afterwards and a change in direction, season 1 still ruins the show.

Ye, why kill the gay dudes and perez's family when we've only seen them twice and the second was quickly. Like yea I have empathy, its objectively sad, sure, but I was excited for them being in the show cus...idk human connections or whatever, but they didnt let us connect with them. I was more confused than sad. ''Nobody is safe'' bs that writers try to copy from GoT doesnt work if you dont understand it ffs

Vannick dying really fit the feeling of reach and all but noble six die in the end. With the way things are going I would not doubt that Rizz also dies before the season is over. However the potential of show drops so much with Keys out of the picture, that was a TERRIBLE writing move. His character had so much more to pull viewers in before dropping him that is a shame to do it not and in this way

you know it's the showrunners picking the cheapest clueless writers and toning down the budget on CGI by making everything foggy, shaky and dark so they can put the most in their pockets. almost like 343
