Planet Spartan?

So from what I gather, you want us to come up with a name for your Machinima that you have already started recording, but you won't let us in on any of the story in which would help our imagination come up with a name for it?

I mean, there's always at the very least an overview of what the series is supposed to be about, that way the viewer has something to at least think about going into the video. My machinima, Boundless, is about two Spartans placed in foreign territory with vague orders to explore the land, yet that overview doesn't give anything away about the grand storyline behind the series.

You can at least give us that sort of overview. Otherwise we have no content to base a potential title off of, other than something about Halo.

I've already said its about Spartans defending a Planet that gets randomly attacked.

So basically the premise of most Halo titles?

  • 07.25.2011 12:30 PM PDT

I'm crap at name's, yeah.

  • 07.25.2011 12:34 PM PDT

Oh hey there

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

(Obviously it's not canon, but I'm doing it for fun)
If it is obvious then why is this in the Universe forum which is for, discussion of all elements of the storyline, backstory, plotline, and canon elements of all Bungie games.

This thread should go in the Gallery which is for, Bungie-related artwork and writings created by members of the Bungie Community.

Watch This.

Dude how are we supposed to lower our weapons?

  • 07.25.2011 12:39 PM PDT

*sigh*, alright then, lets dig a little deeper.

Spartan team's name? Name of their prime location, like a city, town, etc.? The name of the point they are defending? The name of the planet?

With a plot like that, it's better to just look at the key aspects you have for the story and hunt for a name there.

I meant that what I'm doing isn't canon. I have nothing to show in the gallery and this isn't a story.

Ah, Reclaimers, what an original title.

Oh, how original it really is indeed.

Mmm it's kinda sad that you went to the effort to find all of them. Do I care? no.
I like the name, its better than anything else here.You didn't even say anything.

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

No need to be a dick about it.

  • 07.25.2011 1:06 PM PDT

Would it hurt to put a little more effort into it though?

Where's the originality? The creativity? It just seems so...absent. Your apathy for the subject makes it feel like there isn't much thought being put forward.

Well, if you don't like the way the project is going, you can always leave or just not follow it. There is some promise and I'll enjoy seeing what comes next.

  • 07.25.2011 1:11 PM PDT

Would it shock you if I'm being persistent about this because I care for the success for the video?

I'm not disliking the way the project is going. I'm disliking the lack of effort being put into the first thing the audience will see when they are looking for videos to watch: the title. If it's uninteresting or unattractive, it will turn people away. It seems hard to believe, but this has happened to some major releases.

Look, I'm not the guy who complains just to get his way. My way sucks. I'm the guy who complains because I strive to increase the success of others. I honestly have no agenda to just further my own cause, simply because I have nothing to contribute to this project. I am just pointing out that it wouldn't hurt to try to improve upon a key aspect of the video for the director's own good.

Besides, why make a thread about this when ultimately the title "Reclaimer" was chosen?

  • 07.25.2011 1:20 PM PDT

Suggest a title then, as I've said, I'm crap at making titles. It's something I lack in a great deal. I've been writing stories all my life and titles is something I struggle with the most.

I didn't want the title to affect the actual machinima so I let the community decide, and, I don't want to say anything indebt about the story (i.e Are Spartans winning or losing, do many die, ect.) because the last time I did, some troll posted the stuff in the comments about what is going to happen and messaged people.

I've gotten a load of names already, knowing the story in great detail shouldn't affect the way you make a name, I've said the basics of the story.

I want something that's Spartan related and 'Reclaimers' was the best in my opinion, but now that I see how unoriginal it is, I'm not sure what to use.

While you intentions seem good, being sarcastic about it isn't going to help anybody. The title is important, but what is going to matter is the content. Look at Halo: Cryptum, not much to the title, heck I remember people being confused about what the hell it even meant. By your logic, it should've failed. Yet low and behold it became a success.

I've already said its about Spartans defending a Planet that gets randomly attacked.

Well, you didn't say it was a planet that got randomly attacked. It can be called Halo: The last stand

It's mainly about the life of a Spartan, but in a serious way, there is other stuff to it aswell.

No, no you didn't. I've suggested two names already, how many do you want?

Final Frontier
D-Day
Glassing

Oh sorry I thought I did, I said that somewhere else. There's something already called the last stand, one of my friends made it :)

Planet Spartan is.. not what I'm looking for, that's more a
comedy name.
Final Frontier - maybe.
D-Day -- no.
Glassing -- The planet isn't getting glassed.
The curse -- sounds like an infection machinima.
