generally speaking in the halo universe UNSC vs Covenant ships end up with most USNC ships being destroyed. Almost every battle is a losing one for the UNSC. The ones they win its because they take tremendous losses or get extremely fucking lucky. This is why no Human worlds are ever truly defended. Once the covenant are committed its merely a hold out to evacuate who they can and then wait for the world to fucking burn. This doesn't change until 4 years later in the Halo 4 era where the covenant and former covenant is in shambles while humans are rebuilding and advancing.

Basically if it wasn't for the flood breaking out and the Covenant civil war humanity would of likely been wiped out. Its kind of funny because when you play the games especially on fucking normal or lower you are so bad ass but the reality of the situation is shit is fucking bleak lorewise.

>Dykes
I don't think you know the meaning of the word, also that ship is just a fucking cube? Seriously? Look at the POA, the POA would SMASH that cube.

Where the FUCK is my Expanse video game with inertia based movement? A Babylon 5 game would also be nice.

I really like the ship names in the Halo series.

I wish the cowards that manage star wars now would step out of the XYAB comfort zone and add the /k/ wing to a game. Just an absurd amount of firepower packed into a strike craft.

Thats not necessarily true. Covenant ships are pretty fucking weak without their shields. And Johnson states that Earth's MAC guns could blast one in one shot.

SR1 was a heavy fighter
SR2 was a corvette
I know they say frigate but I just don't see it.

>Gothic Cathedrals in space.

Halo 1-3 is the pure kino, you dammed dirty cube-vore fag, what is that pic? is that blue potato meant to be a mech? GOD that is creepy..

yup and its bullshit. A covenant fleet smaller than that which destroyed Reach that had less defenses still managed to breach the defenses. Furthermore even with the Covenant in a civil war losing a tremendous amount of ships they still break through a second time and proceed to ass rape the earth and set up camp in Africa.

You are correct about the ships being weak without shields though. Some of the battles the UNSC won was because they hid nukes in debris fields which took out the shields so the UNSC could pound their ass. Then the covenant who were ignorant to nuclear weapons figured it out putting an end to that tactic. Tactics and overall strategy humans are vastly superior in space or on the ground. But covenant have better more foolproof tech and are able to produce more of it.

>You can play Freelancer as an mmo now with a mod.

Why did no one tell me

Einhander was pure kino.

I love Bungie’s naming aesthetics. Just the names Pillar of Autumn and Twilight Compunction sound so cool.

The Rifter or The Rohk in eve. Hurricane was also great.

cus it's shit

every server, 'serious' rp or not is a don't ask don't tell metagaming grab for those experimental named guns and OP ships with a bazillion fucking HP and donator shields that have insane modded regen etc

people ruin everything

I'd be more intriqued if I could play Freelancer like star sector.

That's why it feels so good when you can get even one marine far enough in Assault on the Control Room. It feels like it shouldn't happen.
