For those that read the halo novels, doesn't CE seem like a more accurate portrayal of a spartans abilities in game? In Halo Ce the chief just seemed more kickbutt than he he did in 2 and 3.

That's because he was. In Halo 2 & Halo 3, he's easier to kill than Marines.

You're right on the mark. In Halo:Combat Evolved the Master Chief had health bars which would let you take 30 more plasma rifle hits on Easy, 20 more on Normal, 10 more on Heroic and 5 more on Legendary.

Also, the armour makes him look like a tank; the desired effect. Not the slimline, trimmed affair of Halo 2.

I think Bungie overpowered the Marines to compensate for their bad AI in 2 & 3.

Bungie is the best.

Simple as that.

I agree with all of you and to add to the slimline of halo 2 armour, isn't that due to the UNSC lack of funding and had to make the suit cheaper and same with weapons like BR and SMG. hold less rounds but more accurate and for the SMG same amount of rounds just cheaper to be cost effective, compared with MA5B. The SMG has same cross hair as the MA5B to prove it was supposed to replace the MA5B, only brought back in halo 3 due to this community missing the assualt rifle so much.

In Halo:Ce, he seemed slower and unable to jump as high. That could be because he only had Mark V though.
