Subject: The picture up top analysis

"We sleep peaceably in our beds, because rough men stand ready to visit violence upon those that wish to do us harm."

"Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of all those who threaten them."

I'd like to hear your in depth analysis of the picture up top.

To me it looks like this game will feature Spartans in different armor perms, and may be a team based shooter. The guy on the far left looks a lot bigger than the other Spartans though.

I wonder if the one on the far right is Linda?

Far left guy looks like an Elite?

Well assuming they're all friends, which since they're not trying to kill each other seems safe, an Elite wouldn't really make sense. They were the one's who burned Reach to a cinder why would they be being nice to humans?

a little TF esque class based MP?

i hope not

His head doesn't look like an Elite's, more like a giant human...

  • 06.01.2009 12:39 PM PDT

ISU Cyclones!

Predictions:

Center is John
Slim one to the left is Kelly
Sniper is Linda (by god it better be Linda.)
Far left big one is Fred (or maybe Sam before he was killed?)
Between center and Sniper.... I dunno. Maybe Will?

I'd say so.

Who knows what kind of Elites are to be found on Reach (Assuming that it takes place on Reach and all that)? Maybe we meet someone who is against the Covenant and the Prophets.

Certainly looks like an Elite to me.

The definition of "insanity" is: Doing the exact, same -blam!- thing, over and over again, expecting -blam!- to change. That is "crazy".

Also, I make pone wellpoopers.

Did I ever tell you the definition of "insanity"?

That'd be about right.

They've got the armor on, that isn't likely to be Sam.

My gun goes PewPewPew!

Based off the banner and descriptions in the book I would say:

Far Left -
Mid Left - James, process of elimination
Middle - Fred, he was the highest ranking Spartan and leader on Reach
Mid Right - Kelly, this is just a guess but that one looks fast and Kelly was the fastest
Far Right - Linda, she was a good sniper and that one has a sniper

Just my guess, though I am almost positive on the right and middle figures identities.

EDIT:
I forgot Sam died, IDK on the left one in that case but it does look like a Spartan holding a big 'ole gun though.

It does look like one. Maybe it is just a big tough guy?

Far Right - Linda, she was a good sniper and that one has a sniper

The thing is that if the middle is Fred, why would the right be Linda? She was with John. If the middle one was John Far right is definitely Linda, but it could be the spotter.

This is true, it could also just be 5 main characters from the book.

A soldiers sacrifice is never forgotten

hes only a tad bit taller. looks like maybe a very tall man with mjolnir armor making him really tall.

How many Spartans are there that are whereabouts unknown?

Want Coup? Here it is for Chrome.

They all look like Spartans, However, The one second from the left looks female, and the one second from the right looks as if he is wearing recon, The one on the far Right looks like an ODST, and the one on the far left looks like Arbiter with a chain gun.

  • 06.01.2009 12:52 PM PDT

I suppose the silhouette on the far left could be a Spartan. The helmet is what leads me to thinking so... The hips and thighs is where I wonder if it's an Elite or not.

What spotter? Linda works better on her own, she has no spotter(statted in the books), if we are talking about the same type of spotter....

When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet, and when toast is dropped, it always lands buttered side down. Therefore, if a slice of toast is strapped to a cat's back, buttered side up, and the animal is then dropped, the two opposing forces will cause it to hover, spinning inches above the ground. If enough toast-laden felines were used, they could form the basis of a high-speed monorail system.

Team based third person shooter anyone?

I think the hips on the Far left guy actually look similar to the middle guys. It has the same belt style section through the middle. Just appears to be an oversized spartan. He also seems to have some sort of shoulder mount, which would make sense for a Heavy Weapon specialist.

When they were kids. I'm pretty sure I remember Linda having the 2nd best sniper has her spotter. When she get's older yeah she no longer has a spotter because she's that amazing, but when she was a kid I thought she did. Fred was the best spotter.
