If you see ANY (Even the slightest!) errors, inform me please! Thanks guys, enjoy. [/b][/quote]Great job man! I uploaded the Halo 4 campaign cutscenes on [url=http://youtu.be/GbjA6rB98Yk]YouTube[/url]. Would it be alright if I use your work to add captions for my video? I don't know when I'll have time to do that, but this would definitely make it a lot easier.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Arbiter 739 Spectacular job! (Though you might want to note what difficulty the diolauge was taken from in the OP.) [/quote] Does the dialogue change in the cutscenes due to difficulty? If so, I have no way of knowing since the video never specified.

Spectacular job! (Though you might want to note what difficulty the diolauge was taken from in the OP.) [Edited on 11.24.2012 5:51 PM PST]

I have already beaten the campaign on legendary for halo 4 and if you havent bought it yet you really should.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] GhostLink2401 Gotta correct you on when Lasky mentions the other rings. He says Installations 5 and 3. Not 6 and 3. Great thread tho. [/quote] Nice catch, fixed it. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] TheSpiderChief Man someone is bored, lol. [/quote] Only a little :P

[b] MIDNIGHT OPENING CUTSCENE: [/b] Cortana: Approaching the Didact's ship in two hundred kilometers! Once we get onboard, we'll find the bridge. Master Chief: He's on the move again. Cortana: The fighter shields aren't rated for slipspace! Master Chief: No, but the Didact's are. [b] MIDNIGHT MID-GAME CUTSCENE: [/b] Master Chief: That's the last one. Infinity, you're clear. Lasky: Roger that, Chief. You might want to back up a little. Main battery Master Chief: Clean hit. We're proceeding to insertion. Lasky: Acknowledged. We'll be on station if you need us. Make sure you give the Didact our regards. Infinity out. Cortana: Chief - Look out! I don't think this is going to end well... Cortana: Now what do we do? Master Chief: Plan B. [b] MIDNIGHT ENDING CUTSCENE/QTE: [/b] Didact: You persist too long after your own defeat. Come then, Warrior. Have your resolution. Didact: So misguided. Humanity's imprisonment is a kindness. Cortana: In that case, you won't mind if we return the favor. Didact: Your compassion for mankind is misplaced. Cortana: I'm not doing this for mankind! [b] HALO 4 ENDING: [/b] Master Chief: Cortana. Cortana, do you read? Cortana, come in. Master Chief: How? Cortana: Oh, I'm the strangest thing you've seen all day? Master Chief: But if we're here- Cortana: It worked. You did it. Just like you always do. Master Chief: So how do we get out of here? Cortana: I'm not coming with you this time. Master Chief: What? Cortana: Most of me is down there. I only held enough back to get you off the ship. Master Chief: No. That's not-! We go together. Cortana: It's already done. Master Chief: I am not leaving you here! Cortana: John... I've waited so long to do that. Master Chief: It was my job to take care of you. Cortana: We were supposed to take care of each other. And we did. Master Chief: Cortana- please Wait- Cortana: Welcome home, John. Radio: Infinity actual? Pelican Nine Sixer. We found him. Lasky: Mind if I join you? Master Chief: Of course not, Sir. Lasky: At ease, Chief. It feels kind of odd for you to call me 'Sir'. Beautiful, isn't she? I don't get to see her often enough. I grew up on New Harmony. Attended Corbulo Military Academy. Never saw Earth in person until I was an adult, but I still think of her as home. Lasky: You don't talk much, do you? Chief I won't pretend to know how you feel. I've lost people I care about, but never anything you're going through. Master Chief: Our duty as soldiers is to protect humanity. Whatever the cost. Lasky: You say that soldiers and humanity are two different things. Soldiers aren't machines. We're just people. I'll let you have the deck to yourself. Master Chief: She said that to me once. About being a machine. [b] EPILOGUE: [/b] Didact: In this hour of victory, we taste only defeat. I ask why. We are Forerunners, guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations, has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms...And the impervious shelter beneath which it has prospered. I stand before you. Accused of the sin of assuring Forerunner ascendancy... Of attempting to save us from this fate where we are forced to... Recede...Humanity stands as the greatest threat in the galaxy. Refusing to eradicate them is a fool's gambit. We squander eons in the darkness......While they seize our triumphs for their own. The Mantle of Responsibility for all things belongs to Forerunners alone! Think of my acts as you will. But do not doubt the reality. The reclamation... has already begun. And we are hopeless to stop it. [Edited on 11.24.2012 1:30 AM PST]

[b] SHUTDOWN OPENING CUTSCENE: [/b] Cortana: I can give you over forty thousand reasons why I know that sun isn't real. I know it because the emitter's Rayleigh effect is disproportionate to its suggested size. I know it because the stellar cycle is more symmetrical than that of an actual star. But for all that. I'll never actually know if it looks real... If it feels real Cortana: before this is all over, promise me you'll figure out which one of us is the machine. Lasky: So what's you plan? Master Chief: Infinity's tracked the Didact's vessel to a docking structure southeast of here. We'll jump ship as Infinity exits the roof. Lasky: You know, I was sent down here with orders to prevent you from leaving. In case you had already gone, I took the precaution of ordering a Pelican outfitted for full combat pursuit. I hope to God you're wrong about that Forerunner or whatever he is, Chief. But in the even that you're not Lasky: And, Chief? Good luck. Both of you. Cortana: C'mon, Chief. Take a girl for a ride. [b] SHUTDOWN ENDING CUTSCENE: [/b] Master Chief: Cortana, what's happening? Cortana: I don't know. Hang on! Cortana: They're jumping into slipspace. Get below deck! Master Chief: No time- [b] COMPOSER OPENING CUTSCENE: [/b] Master Chief: Cortana? Cortana: Still here- Master Chief: A Halo? Cortana: Installation 03. It's where Infinity found the coordinates to Requiem. Master Chief: Then why are they bypassing it? Cortana: Because the Composer's not ON the ring. What are you waiting for? That station's not going to save itself. Cortana: Put me into the console. Master Chief: This is UNSC Master Chief to base. Do you read? Dr. Tillson: Yes! I read you! This is Sandy Tillson of Ivanoff Station! We're under attack! Master Chief: They're after a Forerunner artifact you took from the Halo ring. Dr. Tillson: How do you know about that? Master Chief: Doctor. I need you to protect that artifact until we arrive. Send whatever- Cortana: Do you know what that condescending -blam!- said to me after our first game of chess? Master Chief: Cortana Cortana: Even I don't call her by name any more. Master Chief: Correct your approach Cortana: Yes, well he also said he works better alone. I can see why you chose him, Catherine. Master Chief: Cortana! Cortana: I'm your greatest achievement and you detest me. Master Chief: Pull up! NOW! [b] COMPOSER MID-GAME CUTSCENE [/b] Dr. Tillson: I desperately hope you know why all this is happening. Because, to be honest, my objectivity isn't doing me a whole lot of good right now. Hold on, I'll start us down. Master Chief: The device you recovered was a Forerunner weapon. The commander of that ship wants it back. Dr. Tillson: Wants it back? You don't think you can remove it can't leave this station, you know that, right? Master Chief: We don't have any choice, Doctor. Dr. Tillson: It's not a matter of choice. It took three months and the biggest starship the UNSC could throw at it just to relocate it here. Unless you're a lot stronger than you look, it's not going anywhere. Master Chief: Can you give Cortana access to the station's supply manifest? Dr. Tillson: What for? Master Chief: If we can't move the Composer, we have to make sure the Didact can't either. Dr. Tillson: Oh wait we have YEARS of work invested here Cortana: Inventory lists seven excavation grade Havok mines. Just one of those would turn this base into a piñata. Master Chief: I'm sorry, Doctor. Keep routing your people to the evac centers. Once we take care of the Composer, you won't have much time. Dr. Tillson: I'll make sure the nukes are primes so you can detonate them remotely. Maybe next time you rescue us, you can give us more time to pack? Master Chief: Next time. [b] COMPOSER ENDING CUTSCENE: [/b] Dr. Tillson: They've compromised the station's hull. Master Chief: The Didact's taken the Composer. Get these people to the evac centers! Dr. Tillson: 'Taken'? Taken how? Master Chief: Tap the flight deck. Find us something that can carry a payload. Dr. Tillson: Wait Something's happening. Master Chief: Cortana, can you access the station's defense systems? Cortana: They're not responding! Master Chief: Cortana. Cortana: Chief It's- Cortana: Are you OK? I monitored the data pulse. I could hear them What was left of them Master Chief: We need to move. Cortana: These people are gone Master Chief: And more will follow it the Didact reaches Earth. Cortana: They'll pair you with another AI. Maybe even another Cortana model if Halsey lets them. Master Chief: That's not going to happen Cortana: It won't be me. You know that, right? Spinning up a Broadsword in Hanger C-11. Whatever the Librarian did to you obviously worked- Master Chief: Cortana. It's not over. Not yet. Cortana: Not yet.

[b] INFINITY OPENING CUTSCENE: [/b] Cortana: Stay low; recon support heading this way. The ship looks intact. Master Chief: Something tells me that's only because the Didact wanted it that way. Lasky: This is Lasky to UNSC Infinity. We're up to our necks in bad guys down here. Does anyone read? Master Chief: This is Sierra 117 of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn. We're on station, ready to assist. Lasky: Negative copy, sounded like you said 'Forward Unto Dawn'? Come again- Cortana: Signal's bouncing in and out; I can't clean it up. Master Chief: Light up their friend-or-foe tags; we're gonna need something to zero in on. [b] INFINITY MID-GAME CUTSCENE: [/b] Lasky: Afraid we're gonna have to give you an IOU on that welcome home party. Tom Lasky, First Officer of the Infinity. Never thought I'd see you again. Palmer: Seal 'er up. Thought you'd be taller. Del Rio: ground forces are ordered to return to Infinity immediately! Marine: Commander! Radio's hot! Del Rio: respond to comm On what frequency? What frequency, damnit? Lasky: Infinity, this is Cmdr. Lasky. Pelican recon teams are down. Repeat. All birds are down. We've got numerous casualties and require immediate assistance. Over. Del Rio: Finally Did you get the coordinates to that gravity well? Lasky: Affirmative, Sir. But we're going to need a bus out of here- Del Rio: Make it happen- Cortana: You were put on a scouting run in the middle of an attack on the ship. Lasky: The Captain thought Infinity could provide us cover and hold off the attack at the same time. Palmer: Sir, we'll never get the wounded back to the ship on foot. Lasky: I don't know if it's too soon to ask you for a favor but we're going to run out of breathing room here real quick. I don't suppose you're any good at clearing LZs? Master Chief: On occasion. I'll send out an all-clear once the area's secured. [b] INFINITY ENDING CUTSCENE: [/b] Del Rio: What I want to know, people, is: Where the hell did those things come from? Cortana: It's possible that they're native to Requiem or whatever counts as native for a Forerunner AI. Del Rio: We've never seen this type of offensive reaction from any of the other installations. Master Chief: Other installations? Del Rio: Mr. Lasky. Lasky: Infinity's mission has been to locate the remaining Halo rings, and establish permanent bases to study them for decommission. We've got locations up-and-running around installations 5 and 3, but lately they've run into some setbacks. Del Rio: A science team got zapped excavating a Forerunner artifact. This sensor data is all that was left. Cortana: Interesting These symbols are a derivation of the Forerunner glyph system. Del Rio: And our geeks managed to pull some coordinates. I'll give you three guesses where it led. Palmer: Sir, Gypsy Company is prepped and ready to roll, on your orders. Del Rio: Thank you Palmer. Mr. Lasky, you take point. I want boots on the ground in sixty. Master Chief: Captain? Del Rio: This is a first contact scenario, Master Chief. Priority is to free Infinity from Requiem's gravity well and file a treat assessment back at Fleetcom. Cortana: You mean we're leaving? Master Chief: Sir, Infinity drove the Didact back. He's vulnerable. Del Rio: He isn't the only one. You know. I'd think you of all people would appreciate the benefit of living to fight another day. [b] RECLAIMER OPENING CUTSCENE: [/b] Del Rio: Infinity to Gypsy Company The air corridor to the gravity well is blocked by a network of particle cannons. Infinity's shields are still down. Open the lane for us to move up and provide air support. Master Chief: Captain, what's Force Recon's assessment of the terrain? Del Rio: I know you've been off the field for awhile, Master Chief, but this is a blowthrough op. Sending in recon would just slow us down. Telemetry indicates that the particle cannons are being controlled from a command post southwest of our position. Roll on the target and neutralize those guns. We'll meet on the other side and take the gravity well. Infinity out. Cortana: I don't know about you, but I usually like a little more 'intel' with my intel Master Chief: We'll make it work. [b] RECLAIMER MID-GAME CUTSCENE: [/b] Master Chief: Who are you? Librarian: I am what remains of the Forerunner once known as the Librarian. My memories were retained to assist humanity on their path to the Mantle. Though sadly, that plan is now at risk. The Didact is leaving Requiem. Soon. You must not allow it. Master Chief: Leaving? Librarian: He seeks this- the Composer. A device which will allow him to finally contain the greatest enemy ever faced by the Forerunners. You. Mankind spread into the stars with an unexpected, desperate violence. Entire systems fell before the Didact's warrior servants rose to halt the aggression. When the Didact finally exhausted the humans after a millennia, his sentence was severe. We had no way of knowing that the Forerunners were not your only enemy. Humanity hadn't been expanding. They were running. Weakened from out conflict, we were no match for the parasite which pursued you. The Forerunners made plans for a final great journey. But the Didact refused to yield our Mantle of Responsibility. He would save all life in the galaxy at a cost. In the Forerunners' quest for transcendence, the Composer had been intended to bridge the organic and digital realms. It would have made us immortal. But the results soured. The stored personalities fragmented, and out attempts to return them to biological state created only abominations. Such moral concerns faded from the Didact's attention. The Flood only assimilated living tissue. The Composer would provide the Didact his solution and his revenge. Master Chief: The Prometheans they're human- Librarian: They were only the beginning. He would have encrypted your entire race if we had not removed the Composer from his care and imprisoned him here. Reclaimer, when I indexed mankind for repopulation. I hid seeds from the Didact. Seeds which would lead to an eventuality. Your physical evolution. Your combat skin. Even your ancilla, Cortana. You are the culmination of a thousand lifetimes of planning. Master Chief: Planning for what? Librarian: He has found us. Didact: Even in death, her meddling continues! Librarian: Reclaimer! The genesong I placed within you contains many gifts, including an immunity to the Composer. But it must be unlocked! Master Chief: How? Didact: Relinquish your contact essence. Librarian: Your evolutionary journey must be accelerated! Master Chief: Can I defeat the Didact without it? Librarian: No. Master Chief: Then do it. Librarian: Prepare. [b] RECLAIMER ENDING CUTSCENE: [/b] Del Rio: Infinity cannot handle that kind of punishment, not again! Cortana: This isn't about us or this ship anymore. Master Chief: Sir, we've seen what the Didact is capable of. If we let him leave this world, humanity will be at risk. Del Rio: Look, I understand what you think you saw- Cortana: Think? Master Chief: With all due respect Sir, I know what I saw. Del Rio: And with all due respect to you, Soldier, I'm not willing to jeopardize my ship because of the hallucinations of an aging Spartan and his malfunctioning AI. Lasky: Sir - What if he's right? Del Rio: Nav as soon as we know we're alright. I want a course laid in the Carinae Station. Comm, prepare a warning beacon. Cortana: I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO LEAVE THIS PLANET. Master Chief: Cortana Cortana: I didn't mean to I didn't mean to do that Del Rio: Commander Lasky, Pursuant to Article 55 of UNSC Regulation 12-145-72. I am ordering you to remove that AI's data chip and retire it for final dispensation. Cortana: Don't Please please, I don't want to You don't want me to please Del Rio: REMOVE THAT CHIP NOW, COMMANDER. Cortana: Please I don't want to Del Rio: Give. Me. That. Chip. Master Chief: The Didact has to be stopped. If you won't do that I will. Del Rio: I am ordering you TO SURRENDER THAT AI!!! Master Chief: No, Sir. Del Rio: Lieutenant! Arrest that man! Lasky: Captain Del Rio: ARREST HIM!!! Lasky: CAPTAIN! Master Chief: Get word to Earth that trouble is coming. Cortana and I will do what we can back here. [Edited on 11.24.2012 4:02 PM PST]
