Subject: Lets Give The Halo: Reach Spartans Some Names

They act all big and tough when their on camera with their friends and their guns. But when you break into their house in the middle of the night and stick a gun barrel in their face. They cry like babies and and piss their pants.

It's not Linda, While she was a Sniper she WAS NOT ON REACH!!!! Both her and the Master cheif were on a separate mission in an orbital station. Linda got brutally wounded and the Master cheif evacuated her to the Pillar of Autumn, which then left the system before the battle was even close to ending.

Recruitment threads results in me not joining. All they consist of is copy and paste and sticking your name in it. Have a nice day.

I'm all for making friends, not enemies. You can find me on the Halo 3 Community Forums mostly. I love to help others, so if you have a question or having trouble with something, message me. I will join if your group pops out to me or interests me. My old GamerTag is Black St33l if you are confused who this is. Thanks for reading!

Hmm... How about Sam, Kelly, John, Fred, and Linda? Those sound like good names. Oh wait...

Lol, sorry but I think those are the Spartans from the novels and they already have names. But this would've been a good thread anyway :-/

While that's true, we have no idea what time this is set in. It could be set during the time when Master Chief and Linda were on Reach, could be after. Maybe even both.

Does it matter if they were on reach or not? Just because the game is supposedly about reach does not mean it only takes place on reach at all times.

You could be fighting on Erandius II as far as we are concerned for part of the game.

But they were never on Reach when the Covenant invaded. ALL of the Spartans were on the Pillar of Autumn when the Covenant attacked.

They were for a short time I think... How else did Linda get wounded? I need to read that book again and catch up on some stuff, lol.

She went with the MC another Spartan (forgot his name) to an orbital platform to prevent the covenant from stealing an information bank on a UNSC ship. After the other Spartan was killed and Linda was injured and the MC completed the mssion objectives they were rescued by the Pillar of Autumn.

The middle, leader is clearly Bruce as seen in the 2006 E3 Halo 2 demo.

Surely you mean the 2003 E3 Halo 2 demo, in which Cortana is clearly yelling Bruce at a certain point.

  • 06.01.2009 6:16 PM PDT

Not Kurt either, he's on Onyx with the Spartan III's

Yes, I do indeed. Pardon me. It weighs so heavily on my mind that I thought it must have been more recent.

I, for one, am just glad to see that Spartan Bruce has finally returned to lay waste to his naysayers.

While you might like to think that these are spartans we have heard of, the trailer has a spartan designated as sierra 259 which is none of the spartans we know. This would imply a different setting, possibly the future. The trailer also says we know the ending before it begins, so therefore the people must be characters we know from the books. Although John and Linda were never on reach so it would not make sense for them to be there. Also the armour looks absolutely nothing like MJOLNIR IV or V, and the guy on the left looks like a towering elite. So these could be completely new spartans.

I, for one, can't wait to play as Bruce. If they can capture the epicness that Bruce displayed during that demo, then this will surely best any Halo game thus far.

Fred, John, Kelly, Linda... Can't remember the rest... :P


And Sam, he is the big guy.

Maybe...


No, it's them alright. Fred's Knife, Linda's Sniper, Kelly's small armor to allow her to run, Chief's assault rifle, and I'm not familiar with sam having a turret. But it has to be him.

Oh wait, that was him who died on the covenant vessel, it could be another spartan.


That is a battle rifle sir.

Spartan-043: Will (read Will uses heavy weapons so betting its him)
Spartan-087: Kelly (smallest one so im guessing so)
Spartan-117: John (just because of the assault rifle)
Spartan-104: Fred (the knife that some mentioned above)
Spartan-058: Linda (the sniper)


for those who want to know where i got all this:
http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/SPARTAN-II_Program


Exactly this.

Hey, maybe we'll get to choose which Spartan we play as.

What about Kurt?

Kurt didn't get into the team til much later.

I'm pretty sure it was before the events on Reach that he joined Blue Team. If I remember correctly he "disappeared" much earlier than the events at Reach. But I could be off a little...

I'm not entirely sure either.
I'll have to take a look at the dates.

It's not a battle rifle, you should take a closer look Here. Zoom in as far as you can and you will see that it's the outline of an Assault rifle.
