actualy it works so that you have dominant gene and a resesive gene however there are so many diferent genes and factors for them that skin color can be changed by those along with the gene efecting skin color.

its possible for some genes to be equally dominant, i study genes in biology at college. i could give you a lecture on it but this is a bungie forum not science weekly

Well guys,how come the "Master Chief Translator "doesn't work with Hunters,or Elites,or those Rambo looking guys>>the jackals,but what i don't get is,at that level in halo,where u start sniping at the beginning,when u rescue Captain Keys,he goes"I over-heard the covenant talking about this ringworld,they clal it...Halo."what...now the captain has a translator too?or maybe it's because of his experience with the Covenant.

i think it is possible he has a translator. but i would expect it to be in a helmet, which he does not have. and i dont think he could know their language

well the captain has neural implants that may have translation software the covenant we're unaware of. also it may be, like you said, due to his experience. with the exception of the jackals for which i cannot explain the other covenant castes we're not seen until towards the end of the covenant war (ie recent events) for example elites were not seen until the reach incident. therefore we have not seen them enough or have life POW's to make the translations

i think live elites have been captured but we don't know enough about them yet to have translated all their language but to be fair i don't want us to i would much rather hear "wort wort wort!" than whatever it means

Maybe becuase we bought the english game so everyone speaks english, change the settings to French for example and i bet the marines will all speak French.
Or marines get assigned to their countrys languages ship(s) so i makes for good communication.

nah...i dont remember who said it earlier...but english becoming the standard language makes the most sense...it is after all the language of business right now....so why wouldnt it expand? its the easiest to learn....

It could be his neural implant

Maybe the marines all speak english, because bungie didn't feel like getting spanish voice actors?

to further stay off topic, lol, i think (or at least hope) your wrong chomp. in many online games (like crimson skies) for the xbox you choose your type and team colour (if teams) in the lobby before the game begins
