Well, how are they noobs if they use the Battle rifle? You make me laugh.

Getting into Machinimas making is awesome! I myself love it, well I love it because I get to create and write new scripts and stories and just pour my ideas out onto a page, Just look up Halo 4 machinima on youtube and you'll find yourself a machinima video thingy.

I'm sorry for what has happened, glad we as a community can take your mind off such horrible things to look back at, for me, I don't go to well will this stuff, I shed a tear.

Spartan 2s: They were taught to be silent... And to be a spartan Spartan 4s: Weren't taught anything except basic military training

I'd go for the Spartan-II since well I don't know, like Church said, Doc. Halsey was the one who made them/developed

I'll fix it for you A group of spartans are dispatched to a planet with the UNSC Dawning Horizon to clear out Insurrectionists. This is before the human and Covenant war only for the ship to be shot down, now they must band together and escape the planet.*

I'm with a new story, this time it's a Halo fan-fic! Chapter 1: Dawn of Invention //24 hours before launch\\ "Beauty, isn't she?" Says pike as he looks out from the observatory deck on the 13th level of one of many UNSC's docking structures, he turned around and faced a spartan II, a legend. the numbers across his left chest plate read 117 "You won't be making the trip chief, I have another spartan that specialized in the needed areas for the trip, you're getting a little too old anyways, no offence" Pike said now turning back around to once more observe the glorious view of the second largest ship in the universe, not even the Covenant could make a ship this size "You're excused master chief" Chief nodded and walked off deck. Pike soon after followed the chief but turned a different direction, there was only 22 hours left until launch, the ship was already getting checked a third time, the UNSC dosen't want to take another chance, last time the ships gravity generators and propulsion system went offline and had to be towed back to UNSC controlled space. "Offiicer on deck!" Said a soldier by the name of Nicholas. Pike walked towards the lined up spartan 5 recruits. "I am Commander Pike, I will over see everything that will be down during your final hours of drills before liftoff, I assure you, some of you won't make it, we are only taking the best of the best, no less" One of the recruits giggled at the rhyme Pike just made, Pike turned to the recruit and gave him a fierce stare, the recruit suddenly stood up straight knowing one more mistake he'd have him thrown off "Sargent Nick here will guide you through the drills, I want 110% people! Commander out" Pike walked off from the large hanger bay that was leading into Dawn of Invention. "Don't" A Spartan II said as one of the soldiers in the hanger bay was about to grab one of the snipers from the weapon crate directly in front of him, the soldier looked at the spartan II, knowing how strongly built these guys were didn't touch the sniper rifle but backed off and picked up a Designated Marksman Rifle also known as the DMR, and headed off for target practice. "Ahh, I see your getting cozy with the recruits, eh?" Said Pike, the spartan said nothing and continued to stare at Pike "Don't give me that blank stare Archangel, I would've chosen someone else, someone more lively, but you're the only person we've got, follow me to the briefing room" Pike said, Archangel followed Pike towards a staircase leading up to a large overhanging circular room. "We've found a planet beyond the farthest reaches of the Universe, we need you to go down and investigate it. The planets name is still unknown but we are guessing it's of Forerunner origin, we expect the Covenant to already be there waiting for us since they hacked into our database a couple of weeks ago and took the coordinates of the planet we found near the wreckage of The Didacts ship with many more classified materials" Pike said and stared at the table in front of them giving a little smirk on the side of his face we he said classified materials knowing they discovered something great. "Dawn of Invention now boarding, launch in 2 hours, I repeat liftoff in 2 hours" Said a booming female voice over the intercom, Pike hadn't realized that twenty-one hours had already passed since his chat with the chief "Well, you'd better get going, I won't be making the trip, there was a last minute arrangement for me" Said Pike and walked off back into the hanger bay leaving Archangel behind. Archangel walked down the steps and quickly picked up the Sniper rifle that was still by the crate, and headed off to the armory to retrieve his helmet which one of the Gun Techies had made Archangel leave it behind so they could fiddle with it and install some new software into the helmet. Archangel reached the armory and one of them handed the helmet over, Archangel was next to a mirror but ignored it, and continued to put on the helmet, the Helmet was a Rogue styled helmet, preferred it more than the other ones, the HUD (Heads-up-Display) Blinked to life, the Shield bar appeared at the top, radar in the lower left corner, ammo counter in the upper right, and grenade indicator in the upper left, they were all a shade of blue. The gun tec nodded and Archangel left for the ship that was about to leave in twenty minutes. "Liftoff initiated" Dawn of Inventions engines roared to life and showed off a bright blue color that reflected off the walls, the blast shields were raised for the windows for obvious reasons, the Dawn rocketed off until it was out of view from the docking station. Dawns slipspace drive turned on but at the last moment something had happened, one of Dawns engine blew apart right when they entered slipspace, entering slipspace with a blow engine was a extremely dangerous thing to do. From the observation deck the ship reappeared next to the shielded planet. "Captain! Covenant cruiser headed straight for us! We can't control the ships turning mechanisms because they were destroyed in the blast!" Yelled one of the technicians onboard "BRACE FOR IMPACT!" Yelled the captain, he said it too late, Dawn of Invention hit the cruiser, even though they were bigger than the cruiser, they weren't going fast enough. the cruiser cut a hole through the hull of the Dawn disabling most of the mac cannons and missiles. The rest of the Covenant fleet aimed for them and fired at will, the plasma cannons ripped through the damaged hull and melting the decks within it "Dammit! I knew I should of gotten everyone to check right before we launched off" Mumbled the captain as he can only sit and watch as the ship gets ripped to pieces. A noise was made behind the captain, he turned and saw a figure that looked very similar to an AI "It's time" the figure said "Time for what!?" Yelled the captain with fear in his eyes, the figure simply disappeared the the shielded opened without scanning it like it did on Requiem, something about this planet dosen't seem right the captain thought to himself. The ship was immediately jolted forward towards the planet, getting sucked in at 10X the rate he'd thought it would. Archangel hit the wall as he tried to reach for an escape pod but it was picked off by one of the plasma cannons, "Sh--" Archangel started saying for he was propelled out of the ship due to insignificant change in Gravity, Archangel was flying towards the planet at unbelievable speeds, Archangel was closer to the planet with the Dawn right behind getting closer each second that went by, he wasn't going to make it. He remembered that his armor received a few upgrades a while back prior to the mission briefing, his helmet also linked into the thought center of his brain from one of the upgrades the gun techs put in, without thinking, he thought of two words "engage thrusters" for a couple of seconds nothing had happened, he lost hope of survival, the only thing that could save him was luck, but luck did save him, he started rocketing towards the planet at a higher speed. The heads up displayed blinked the words under his shield bar "Thrusters Engaged" with all of his might, Archangel turned around and tried to find a safe entry point in the Dawn, he found the opening where the escape pod broke off. Archangel focused on that and hit it, once he got inside he had to quickly pull himself inside the ship since the emergency handle broke off. Debris from the ship kept pulling him back, the planet was getting closer, the rest of the surviving covenant fleet were still trying to destroy the ship whilst being pulled in. Archangel pulled himself to the barracks which was a mess, since two of the gravity generators blew apart everything was getting tossed from placed to place, most of the soldiers were either dead or wounded from the incoming fire from the covenant. They were only a couple of miles away from the planet, everything went wrong from the launch, this ship was named after the esteemed Forward unto Dawn which was the first ship to lay upon a shield world, that name was haunted from the souls that died protecting humanity. Archangel went to the bridge and found the captain and the rest of the crew dead. Archangel looked up from the captain and looked at the opening planet, everything went black. Chapter 2: And down went Alice “Why do you always jump....... Send me out with a bang…….. The index is secure…… Communicating with what…… You Will Rise!” Those were the voices of the dead, the ones who served on the Forward Unto Dawn but the last words were something else, they kept coming back to him over and over, they were cryptic messages, but yet, Archangel couldn’t find out what they meant. He woke up in what was left of Dawn of Inventions bridge, it was pitch black, meaning they either crashed straight into the ground and survived what was supposed be a quick death, or they crashed into a mountain, or a cave. The ship made a cringing sound each step he made, it was like walking on breaking glass. The ship had suffered heavy losses and had taken many deathly blows but yet some of the panels were still lit up, showing signs of electricity still flowing. Maybe the ship will still be able to fly Archangel thought to himself. Archangel tapped on the intercom, it worked! He spoke into it “Anyone read me? Respond?” He said and waited several minutes for a response but all there was, was just static until a blue light was shown behind him, it said the same words to Archangel as it said to the captain “It’s time” but it said more “You’re alone, but not fully alone, you must prepare for what is to happen, not even the Forerunners know of what creatures walk upon this world. This place has been untouched for thousands of years. You must unlock the secrets that they could not,. The precursors weren’t the first, they were like the Forerunners, they deceived the real creators, I’m what’s left of them. You must find me, You Must Rise!” The blue figure disappeared. “He’s crazy, no person in their right mind would fly off in their own ship to a Forerunner planet” Said a ONI officer talking to his partner on the way to his office “It is a prototype, I’m pretty sure it was fit for service anyways, ONI wouldn’t lead one of their best Spartans to their own death” Responded the partner now reaching their destination “I’m going to look into this mo-----“ Before the officer could finish his sentence his partner cut in “They burnt all of his files, he was erased from existence, so don’t try looking, you won’t find anything worth looking at” “Anyone out there? I’m being attacked by Forerunner ships and next backup?” A spartan 2 said with the numbers 181 on his left chestplate. He was being attacked by a fleet of Forerunner ships close to the shield world ORION piloting a prototype made by him and cleared by ONI The Forerunner ship blasted through the hull of the ship and boarded it almost instantly, Spartan 181 was dazed from the explosion leaving enough time for the Forerunners to capture him and bring him aboard one of their own ships. “We need your help, we do not mean to harm you” the sentence confused Spartan 181, after blowing up his ship and taking him aboard one of their own? “You could of asked politely” Spartan 181 said kiddingly “We need your help, a planet, a shield planet just like this one, has been found and opened, someone has got inside” “Well, why don’t you just get them out?” 181 said “There’s something in there, they created the precursors, we don’t know whom they are, but they will kill us all” Another Forerunner said “You’re a advanced species and you’re wanting my he----“ Before 181 could finish talking a blue light appeared and sucked him in. Archangel walked down one of the corridors searching for a way out, the ship was badly damaged, not even air tight. She won’t even be able to fly again for a couple of weeks with extensive repairs which he doubted they would ever get this baby out of here. All of a sudden, something shuddered the ship and it fell once more. Archangel gripped onto one of the nearby railings and held on until it finally gave away, Archangel flew down passage ways of the ship and crashed into walls instantly breaking them, he finally hit the ground once the ship smashed into the ground, the ship split in two destroying the flow of electricity and the hope of ever getting back home. Archangel got up from the ground and found himself outside in the bright sunlight, he was in a destroyed forest from all of the wreckage that laid here, not even the covenant ships survived the crashed, they all laid either crashed into each other or upside down. The covenant where still alive though, they already have banshees, scarabs, and phantoms setting off into the unknown. Archangel looked behind him when he heard a noise and saw a Spartan appearing out of nowhere, Archangel took out his magnum that was barely held together but still worked and pointed it at the Spartan “Who are you?” Archangel said as he slowly creeps forward , as Archangel was close to the Spartan he read the numbers 181 and a wolf emblem on his armor, right when he was about to holster his weapon after knowing who it was, the Spartan karate kicked the weapon out of his hand and kicked Archangel back and continued to point the gun at Archangel “Ill prepared, no? Also this weapon dosen’t seem that reliable” Just as he said that he crumpled the magnum and threw it on the ground “Carson, what are you doing here?” Archangel said holding back his temptation to beat him back to where he came from. Carson froze for a moment looking at Archangel, his armor was covered in dents and scrapes he was hardly noticeable “Archangel?” Carson said and Archangel nodded “Don’t talk, but look, we’re in this together, I—we are in a Forerunner shield world, however things didn’t go according to plan and our whole plan went to ----“ Said Archangel while Carson was looking around him then paused and looked at Archangel “Wait wait wait wait, are you the person that the Forerunners were talking about? We have to leave now, no matter how we do it, we have to leave” Carson said with fear in his voice as he paces around looking for a ship that could possibly still fly “What are you on about” Archangel said in a serious tone “The Forerunners boarded my ship and asked for my help, to come to this planet because something very dangerous was lurking here, they are way more advanced than us and they are scared of coming here! We need to go now” Carson said now closer to Archangel

If you have a windows computer, or mac I think it works for that too, look up bamboo capture, it's a device that connects to your computer and detects photoshop and stuff and you can use that to draw, I might get one myself it's 100$

Blue Yeti, least I can grab on the stand part of it and wack them, it hurts, I've face planted into it before, not a good feeling

Nice story, but one thing DFSDSFDSFGDFDFS ZE HORRIBLE grammar and things punctuuaitoons and speeeeelings1! but good, liked it, can't wait for more.

If you're going to do this, tell them what kind of buildings are you looking for? so you'll get better responses
