Subject: Recon? On an ODST?

Seriously, check this out.

I really didn't bother when the characters were first announced at the Recon helmet thinking it was just a funny joke Bungie was playing on people that play Halo 3. But then when I saw it on the trailer and the Meet the Squad on the front page I realized it was serious.

Does anyone else think that the Recon helmet is not only stupid to put on an ODST soldier, doesn't have to do with anything Halo related besides a made-up armor permutation on Halo 3, and most importantly it's HUGE. The helmet is 5x the size of the woman that is wearing it.

What the hell?

Yes, this has been posted before, and it is too big because it is a helmet designed for spartans.
Recon, and all other armour permutations do have a background in the Halo universe, so aren't as you put it "made up".

Ok, if there is please give me some background besides the description the artists made up for it.

Actually it wasnt designed FOR spartans necessarily. It is an armor set actually used BY ONI.

  • 06.05.2009 1:10 PM PDT

Meh.
it looks weird, but I'm not opposed to it.

Rule 6: Respect the Admins

“It’s their website, and they can do whatever the hell they like with it. You’re a guest, and hassling them about how they run things is akin to going round your Auntie’s house and curling one out in her tea-pot.”

Perhaps it was in testing stage before spartan use.

The Spartan IIIs had their SPI armor tested by ODSTs. All recon is, is a Mjolnir version of SPI(Semi-powered Infiltrator)

So the armor perm that she is wearing is a specifically designed ONI variant?

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

Maybe she's not an ODST! <Gasp!>

Seriously this is a parody thread. The OP is just trying to make you guys look like a bunch of asinine fanboys.

HE KNOWS THIS BECAUSE...SHE'S A BUNGIE EMPLOYEE!



















Seriously though, she is not an ODST. She is a ONI operative assigned to take command of that ODST squad. I guess she's more of a hands on operative.

  • 06.05.2009 1:15 PM PDT

Agreed

Recon is for ONI officers who need to go out on the field for research

She's with the ONI. We already know she's not an ODST. Does that matter?

i agree it does look a tad awkward on the tiny little person, but obviously there's a good reason for it.

You can put ODST helmets on spartans, why not the other way around?

Shhh, don't tell Sage!
Holy freedom fries!

She's not an ODST, She's an ONI.
It does look a tad odd though.
