I Brought Halo 2's Cut Flood Juggernaut Back Into The Campaign!

Salutations! With the release of the mod tools for the Master Chief Collection version of Halo 2, the modding community for this game is now capable of doing so much more with the game than they’ve ever been in the past. One of these new abilities is proper tag injection into other levels, and as you can see from the title of this video, this means The Flood Juggernaut can finally inhabit other Campaign levels besides High Charity. Let's dive in to all this Halo 2 cut content!

    Halo 2 was my first Halo and The intro in the mission Juggernaut, looking through the glass floor, barely being able to see through the fog, hearing the flood scary screams and the slaughter of the Heretics, legit put fear in my heart and nightmares as a young kid. They were so damn aggressive, fast, jumped high and STRONG AF. The human combat forms were nightmarish to look at. The atmosphere and darkness of the levels you fought them in were perfect to add how creepy and horrific they were. The ambiance, the scary howls and screams in the background. If Halo 2 had the ability to add the Halo 3 infection form transformations on live hosts, oh God.

    Yo this is so cool. I would love to see an expanded Halo 2 restored via the modding community. The encounters seem very cool, and that opening scene with the glass floor is SO good. I always thought it was really strange how the elites talk about the Flood like they had no idea what it was when they clearly knew about the parasite. I also wondered why there was just a random unmanned scorpion tank in the back of that area on Quarantine Zone. Seemed weird. Man, if only they had gotten the juggernaut in a better state. It was probably cut because it wasn’t fun and it had issues with its AI. It seems a little janky and weak in its current state. I’m sure the melee attacks don’t feel great either. Could use some love. I think it would be very cool though. I hope you get a developer to reach out and explain some of the speculative spawns you placed.

Also idk if you take requests but I would love to see you make a video on the cut elite climbing ai (like the kind found in this: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gmqqo9Bshba4Z7w.html) that can be found and even accidentally triggered on Outskirts. Would be very interesting if a sort of recreation could be made for that.

    @@TheVengefulVadam Yes it is pretty interesting. I had it happen to me about a year ago by complete chance, and it was actually in a slightly different place than in the video. I was playing normally and I turned the corner into the infamous sniper alley where I found an elite stuck floating in its climbing animation directly in front of the wall where they typically jump down from. I have a hunch this is an accidentally leftover mechanic where elites would have been able to scale buildings to fight the player, seeing as bungie clearly intended for the player to climb onto the rooftops themselves.

    This is really cool, never new about this. I feel it could have actually worked if they had more time to implement it more animations so it could navigate the tighter more crowded areas in the game. Just spitballing; but it could have even had a slight shape shift ability to fit into shorter corridors. It's deffinetly a cool concept to imagine. Anyways thanks for your dedicated work to preserve some Halo 2 History :)

    You have to wonder how a juggernaut Flood form is created. It's very different from the combat forms and looks more like a pure form, but pure forms don't appear until after the Flood has terraformed an area.

    My understanding is that a juggernaut is a specialized proto-gravemind. Afaik, the original intent was that when you kill the juggernaut, every other flood form in the area drops dead, because the juggernaut was controlling them. So presumably, they're formed in a similar way as other proto-graveminds, whatever that is.

    @@andyfriederichsen I know, I'm saying that since the juggernaut has similarities in function to a proto-gravemind, it may also be formed in a similar way. In other words, we know that feral flood can form a proto-gravemind, which is already somewhat like a pure form, so it stands to reason that they'd be able to form a juggernaut (maybe only when guided by an existing proto gravemind) also, given the similarities.

    You know, I can see why Bungie cut them out. Having that many Juggernaut encounters, and how bullet spongy they were, they would've been very repetitive to fight. It would have turned Sacred Icon is Halo 2's version of The Library. Makes me wonder if that was Bungie's original intention and realized that was a bad idea and cut them out. Then cut them out entirely as it looks like they would not have been fun to fight. But from their ideas on how frequent they appear, they would recycle them into the Flood tank-forms for Halo 3. A more balanced version of the juggernaut, can be placed in many areas, and having them transform to ranged units gave them a nice way to take on flying units. Because from the footage from this video, it looks like the Juggernaut didn't have any proper way to take on flying units. Maybe jump high but I noticed they only do that for entrances and not for combat, might make it unfair to the player if they can just jump that high towards you. Maybe they might return in Halo Infinite in some future campaign expansion if the Flood ever returns, but more realized. Would fit since Infinite has boss fights, a flood juggernaut can serve as a proper Flood boss encounter. Make them interesting to fight and fun to fight.
