E2. Zeta Halo
So how do you build a Halo? The temperate forests of the Pacific Northwest, a day-night cycle, some banshees, and a whole slew of new player experiences—all good ways to start. On episode 2 of Action Sack—Xavier, Thomas, and Eurich talk the ins, outs, and origins of Zeta Halo as covered by 343i in their February ‘Inside Infinite’ update. On top of that, the Assembly crew try their hands (or mouths?) at recreating the sounds to some of Halo’s most iconic weapons. It went a little like—boom bam bop badabap boom pow. Not to brag but, 343i should’ve hired us for sound effects from the start.
