== Transcript ==
 
=== First Cinematic: "Oh, So That's How it Is" ===
 
''{Note: No dialogue at all in this cinematic}''
 
''{"Heavy Price Paid" plays, camera moves up from a cliff face to show a view of Delta Halo's Control Room. The glow of a teleportation appears on the cliff. The camera focuses on the glow, and the Arbiter materialises, then stretches. The camera goes to beside and behind him, showing the path ahead. He turns to his left and finds a conveniently-placed Plasma Rifle, which he picks up, the camera now focusing on his front once more. Fade to white, gameplay starts}''
 
===Gameplay===
 
''(Arbiter sees Brute shot grenades going off in the distance, followed by plasma rifle bursts firing in the air)''
 
'''Brute 1:''' "Weaklings!"
 
''(Arbiter picks up an energy sword)''
 
'''Elite:''' (Dying) "The Brutes... have betrayed us... the councillors...!"
 
''(Arbiter sees Brute shooting at a dead Elite.)''
 
Brute 3: Let's just throw them over the edge!
 
Brute 2: Where's the fun in that?
 
(The Brute passes by two more Brutes)
 
'''Brute 1:''' "I already checked there!"
 
'''Brute 2:''' "Just making sure..."
 
''(After you kill those three)''
 
'''Brute Captain:''' (Growls) "Go see what's taking them so long!"
 
''(After you reach the doors of a structure, a SpecOps Elite kills any Brutes remaining)''
 
'''SpecOps Elite:''' "By the Prophets... what have these Brutes done...?" (''Pauses, looks at Arbiter, then tightens his fist)'' "They have shed our brothers blood... and for that, they must die!"
 
''(Pods land on the canyon)''
 
'''SpecOps Elite:''' "A Zealot! So much for a stealthy advance."
 
'''Zealot:''' "Bah! Over so soon?"
 
''(Once you move into the structure)''
 
'''Zealot:''' "Arbiter! Save some for the rest of us!"
 
'''SpecOps Elite:''' "Take haste! There are more Brutes to kill!"
 
''(Once you enter the next room)''
 
'''Elite Minor:''' "Ha ha! Long have I waited for this!"
 
'''Brutes:''' "Intruders? Raise the alarms!"
 
''(Later, the Arbiter finds a Grunt cowering in a corner)''
 
'''[[Cowardly Grunt|Grunt]]:''' "Please... no hurt! Me like Elites! Brutes stinky bad-bad! Me stay here, make sure no Brutes come behind mighty Arbiter!" ''(Chuckles nervously)''
 
(Upon entering a hallway with dead Elites and Grunts, with scattered weapons)
 
'''SpecOps Elite''': (Praying) Start the journey... be at peace.
 
(Alternatively)
 
'''SpecOps Elite''': And yet I live.
 
(Later, they find a cache of human weapons)''
 
'''Elite:''' "What vulgar taste! Even as trophies, these weapons are worthless!"
 
===Second Cinematic: "Fight Club"===
 
''{Arbiter exits last door. A Wraith approaches him slowly. Arbiter readies his weapon. The lid opens to reveal the SpecOps Commander}''
 
'''Half-Jaw:''' "By the rings, Arbiter! The Councillors, are they...?"
 
'''Arbiter:''' "Murdered... by the Brutes."
 
'''Half-Jaw:''' "Vile, disloyal beasts! The Prophets were fools to trust them!"
 
''{They see a Phantom fly over them. It stops above the platform of the Delta Halo Control Room. Tartarus lands from the grav lift, with Commander Miranda Keyes and 343 Guilty Spark in captivity. Tartarus greets the Brute guards with growls. He enters, and the doors close behind him.}''
 
(End cinematic)
 
== Walkthrough ==
 
=== Normal Walkthrough ===
 
''{Needs to be done}''
 
=== Speed Run Walkthrough ===
 
''Note: This walkthrough require correct Grenade Jumping, Sword Flying, Active Camouflage usage, precision in everything and... speed. This walkthrough is based on Cygnus's 2:22 Legendary Co-Op run, with a bit of minor editing as I personally deem fit from tactics used in Spotcheck's 1:57 Normal run. It may be altered as and when faster runs emerge. Certain portions detailed here may only take place on Legendary and alternate methods, not detailed here, will be necessary in such events.''
 
Go along the path, picking up the Energy Sword as you do so. Once around the corner, jump up and over the rock, picking up the Plasma Grenade as you do so. If there is no Plasma Grenade present, however, it would be prudent to use Active Camouflage and backstab the Brute nearby for his grenade. If you did not get spotted by the Brute as you vaulted the rock, you will get a checkpoint as you near the next rock, otherwise you will not get it. Jump onto the rock and then [[Sword Fly]] to the Brute emerging from the inner area. Leave them to the Infiltrator Elite lying in wait and run past. As the next door opens, throw a Plasma Grenade to the bottom of the cliff and use it to [[Grenade Jump]] up to the Grunts. Swap out your Plasma Rifle for the nearby Carbine. Hopefully you get a checkpoint here, it doesn't always happen.
 
Zoom in and Sword Fly to the enemy reinforcements that emerge from the door, then use Active Camouflage to sneak past the Brutes that enter. Jump up and sight the Brute on the lower level, then quickly Sword Fly to him. Knock off the Jackal that goes through the door before he delays you too much. Head through to the next area and jump down the slopes. Run past the Brute that goes through the door. Head into the next area with the Shade and Sword Fly to the Brute that goes through the door. Pick up the Fuel Rod Gun in the area after that, and the reload before the door. "Step Aside, Let the Man Go Through" will appear now. Use Camouflage to sneak past the Brutes and Jackals waiting outside. Sword Fly to the Brute Captain arriving in his Ghost and Cancel off him onto the rock. Get next to the tree-like object and jump up the cliff, then face downwards and jump upwards and forward, then jump again and make it to the top of the mountain. Once on top, turn slightly to the right so that the bend of Delta Halo is in the distance, then walk forward. You'll get a checkpoint here if you've been fast enough.
 
Head forward and down the sloping section to a thin stretch of pointed rock. Drop down the right side, as close to the wall as possible, then aim downwards and fire your Fuel Rod Gun. It's rather hard to state precisely where to aim, but just note that you don't have to be firing so close as to hurt yourself. It may be a few tries before you get the targetting perfect, but keep at it.
 
And that's that for Uprising. The timing's been squeezed rather tightly, but if you think you can boost the timing even more, feel free to go try.
 
 
---- Easy Walkthrough
----
Walk to your left and pick up the Energy sword. Engage your Active Camo, and get behind the first Brute, and say hi in the form of a back stab, then pick up his plasma rifle and unload on the next couple of Brutes. Once theyre dead, switch to Energy sword, slip on Active Camo, and slash the first Brute in front of the door. Let the SpecOps Elite take care of the other one. After your reinforcements come, go through the doors, to the cavern, and engage the Camo.
