Well Im pretty sure the Halo 2 original cutscene was the first time it was actually shown to anyone. It was referred to in I think 1 novel that is a confirmed in atmosphere slipspace portal at this point in the series chronology in 2004. So for them to adapt it to fit how it actually works in universe would be obvious. I also think Halo 2's was done for a more dramatic effect vs this. First Strike would lead us to believe that Cortana and the higher ups would have an understanding about what's going to happen vs anyone else.

I mean more how the slip-space portal opens at the front of the ship and then it just zooms in, unlike the one in Halo 2 Aniversarly where it's just open and the covenant ship just slowly flys though it.

Indeed it is for one simple reason. Tension. If you haven't seen the trailers, then you don't know how this is going to turn out. If you have seen the trailers, then you know the drop is not going to turn out well at all. Either way, this scene builds tension. Halo 5, we don't get that impending sense of dread. Sure Buck says he's scared and all that, but the music is too "heroic" and then we see Osiris mow their way through the Covenant.

@@deadponic117because they dont have time to again repeat the program. so having a lot of troops who is the best of the best in human form is the perfect candidate to expand the program. u may not like it but a whole bunch of armies in spartan gear is still deadly af even if they are inferior to the ogs. after all, manpower and logistics are key.

The sequence of free fall of the capsule is breathtaking, and other than the visual... the music in the background with increasing drums and "drama" in melody while progressively noticing something's going wrong... absolute goosebumps

The pod that crashes with the Rookie's actually Mickey's. You can slow the video down to 0.25 and pause the moment of impact, and see Mickey bracing himself through his window.

@@boobyqueen I think the switch from cgi to in-game graphics wouldn't work. When Romeo wakes up the Rookie and we switch to his perspective, it's seamless because the cutscene uses the in-game models. The game would have to look as good as its cutscenes for that switch to not be jarring.

2:23 We are GREEN

If we ever get another ODST game/campaign DLC where we are dropping into hell, I’d love it to be executed similarly to this or the Delta Halo drop scene

Call me biased because ODST was my first Halo game (the first one I personally owned) but this is the best intro in the series. NOT TO SAY THE OTHERS WERENT GREAT, mind you... but this was just... UUGGHHHH so good

Yup, still get chills

if they ever make a halo theme park this needs to be in it.

That music though...if ever acrophobia makes sounds, this is it.

Nah, this is common military stuff. Rookie was ready to go beforehand, he's catching some shut eye when and where he can. You never no when you'll be able to get a full night's sleep in the military, so you learn to take quick naps whenever possible. He got in his gear together and was in his pod, waiting for deployment. Since they're not doing anything just yet, he decided to catch a minute or two of rest.

so good!

If this game was remastered best shit ever

Still one of the best intros into a game

This should be a rollercoaster

2:45 That is the same ship model seen in the Halo 3 ending when the Ark portal separates the ship into halves. One half lands in the ocean, the other is adrift in space. Bungie recycled the model. I just realized that, peaking at the files in Blender.
