Halo: Combat Eclipsed Demo

Project Overview

What is this project?


Halo: Combat Eclipsed is an upcoming Halo mod for the Master Chief Collection on PC. The aim of this project is to create a Halo campaign mod complete with new levels, characters and gameplay, while staying somewhat true to the source material. The setting of Halo: Combat Eclipsed is based in an alternate universe, where Halo meets 80s action films and retro-futurism. Our new heroes will be slaying aliens with a wide range of wacky over-the-top weapons while throwing out quips left, right and centre. In this current state, we are creating a single demo level to see if the project can gain some interest from fans.


Project requirements


We're open to actors who are new and are looking for experience, but to be considered for the role we would like you to be able to put on a convincing performance. As well as this, your recordings need to sound clear with no background noise or clipping/peaking; a good quality mic will come in handy. Some of the characters will require you to shout your lines a bit as there will be lots of action in this mod.


Payments


Because this is a mod, I unfortunately cannot throw money at those participating as I will have no way of making the money back; Microsoft T&Cs and copyright disallow me from selling anything the project creates. However, if the mod demo proves popular and we can set up a successful Patreon/YouTube channel at a later date, I would be happy to pay folks more for their work.

Latest Updates

  • Role Announcement

    Hi there folks! We've had some wonderful talent apply for the roles, and it was a difficult decision, but I am pleased to announce that we have picked out our actors. I just want to say a big thank you to all of you for putting in the time to put forward a submission, and that the effort is greatly appreciated. Although we have filled all of the roles for the demo, we will have several more roles open up in future when we get to the next stage of the project.

    The full campaign will have more characters to portray, all with their own distinct backgrounds and quirks. Not only will we be hiring for human characters, we will also be looking to hire voice actors for the various aliens and weird creatures that our players will encounter. We already have ideas for some of you who didn't get a role at this moment; we will drop those of you a message in the next few days, and again at a later date to let you know when the next wave of auditions goes live.

    Again, a big thank you to everyone for you time and effort. If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a message or to email me at [email protected]

    Nathan, Project Lead of Combat Eclipsed

  • Deadline closure

    Hi there folks!

    Just want to say a big thank you to everyone who put forward a submission for the project! The writers and I will be going through all the submissions to pick out the roles, so keep an eye out in case we send you a message for an extra take. We aim to announce the roles on the 7th.

    Thanks again,

    Nathan, Project Lead of Combat Eclipsed

  • Role Closure: Script Writer

    Hey there folks, I hope you're all doing well! I've closed the role of Script Writer early as friends from a previous project have agreed to help with this one. Thank you to those of you who applied for the role, and I wish you the best of luck with your future projects.

    As for the VA roles, we'll be keeping them open until the 5th of March to try and get as many applicants as we can. Once the deadline has passed, we'll go through all the submissions we've received and pick out the roles. We'll announce who got which role on the 7th of March, and leave any feedback we can if you would like any.

    Just wanted to say thank you to everyone that's applied so far, it's been great to hear such wonderful talent. It's been great to hear these characters brought to life. It's going to be difficult to pick through these applications, that's for sure!

    Have a nice day folks,

    Nathan, Project Lead of Combat Eclipsed

Sierra-C1202
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 40 GBP
Role assigned to: Isaac A.

S-C1202 is a somewhat stoic and controlled character. They are a capable leader, and a great tactician. Although they have a history of being a dependable operative on stealth missions, they have a love for going loud. They have recently been paired with S-C1998; their last few missions on Reach saw much action and many an explosion. C1202 is quick to think and very adaptable. They don't talk very much, and when they do they often keep it short and straight to the point. However, they are starting to talk a bit more ever since they were partnered with S-C1998.


Further details:

- The character is around 40-45 years old. You do not necessarily have to be this old to take on the role.

- Character inspiration - Noble Six (Halo Reach), Rex Power Colt (FC3: Blood Dragon), Snake Plissken (Escape from New York)


S-C1202 does not currently have a name, and the character has been written as unisex. Your gender does not matter, the role is open to anyone with talent and interest. You and I can discuss this character's name when you accept the role.


S-C1202 will have a lot of lines in the mod demo as they are one of the player characters. They will have lines in cutscenes, conversations and in-game reactions to events.

Paid: Flat Rate 40 GBP
Role assigned to: Kelsey Painter Voice

Sierra-C1998 is your typical loudmouth 80s action hero, throwing out quips left, right and centre. They have a thing for explosions and rocket launchers, and often solve problems by facing them head on. They are a large, bulky Spartan. When they are caught in a firefight, they don't look for cover; they are the cover. They have been recently partnered up with S-C1202 to better their combat abilities; command feels that with a competent partner the duo could prove an effective asset.


Further details:

- The character is around 40-45 years old. You do not necessarily have to be this old to take on the role.

- Character inspiration - Emile A239 (Halo Reach), Dutch (Predator), Ash (Army of Darkness)

Paid: Flat Rate 20 GBP
Role assigned to: Laurence Stirling Knott

Jeeves is an Artificial Intelligence Assistant developed to be integrated within a suit of Spartan armour to assist the occupant in their tasks on the field. Jeeves has taken on the form and characteristics of a butler from the late 1920s to early 1930s era. He is rather witty. There is not much to the character at the moment, so he is open to your interpretation so long as he follows the basic descriptions and tags provided.

  • All nine occupants are alive and well, Sir. I can't say how long for, however. Local pelican chatter suggests a number of spirits are headed this way.

  • Lieutenant Peterson performed a brief scan of the cave's terrain upon his entrance, and he was kind enough to send me the data. I suggest the two of you continue eastwards, Sir.

  • I'm detecting nearby IFF transponders. There is a lifepod not too far from our location.

Paxton is an Artificial Intelligence Assistant developed to be integrated within a suit of Spartan armour to assist the occupant in their tasks on the field. Paxton has taken on the form and characteristics of a marine from the 2300 era. He is quite loud and confident, and speaks in an informal tone. The character is open to your interpretation, though Private Hudson from Aliens (1986) is a good source for some inspiration.

Lieutenant Peterson is a level-headed pelican pilot. He is a veteran of the Human-Covenant war and has many years of flying experience.

  • No thanks Nineteen, I'm not letting you near pelican controls again. Not after what happened last time.
