It says here That Mickey's pod hit Rookie's. Compare to this picture, where there is no white mark on the helmet. Also, ODST squads drop in a straight line, how could Mickey have gotten in front?

Also if he DID hit him it would mean Mickey's pod had lost ALL power and his rockets would have failed. He would have "dug his own grave" and that would mean he isn't in Halo 3: ODST so...

I actually thought it was buck who hit the rookies pod.

Isn't he the one on the far right on the main bar?

The one with the RED armour.

Then again, it's halopedia can't ANYONE edit those pages?

Regardless, people are saying it was a squad member.

There should also be a red mark and his arms. But a least a hit of white should be showing. Also, they all dropped in a straight line, so how could Mickey have gotten in front?

1. At normal speed, you can't even notice that, so I don't think Bungie artists would have taken the time to put the details in
2. Steering controls

I've seen a better version of that picture.

The ODST clearly has a red helmet, and armour.


Red is a commen color, and just looking at the top bar (You know the one that reads Halo 3 ODST) That two of the ODSTs have red on their body armour.

Also: You guys do know that blood turns red after it hits oxygen.

Perhaps the ODST you see over there is simply bleeding and the air in the pod is so thin the blood turns into a fine mist. Making the other ODST look like he has red on him.

That wouldn't explain how he spun to face him. I'd also like to congratulate you on the first friendly discussion I've had in awhile =P

Sorry If this ends up as a double, but that seems way to much detail, even for Bungie.

You didn't notice the EXPLOSION?!

That thing spun the ODSTs pod all the way around and by pure luck it happened to hit the Rookies pod in just the spot for them to exchange glances right before the virtual -blam!- hit the virtual fan.

That was an EMP blast, the pod was directly in front of him, and was blown toward him.

I don't see how a EMP blast could seriously menance and then scatter a orbital space tether all over the savana.

I could understand it breaking the thether and having it drop right onto New Mombassa, but not get blown into the surrounding countryside.

Those links are heavy you know.

Otherwise you seem to have gotten my point.

Have you ever built a tower of blocks that reaches into space? When you knock it over that top block ends up pretty far away...

No...just, no. I sincerely hope you are kidding.

My guess is its some random ODST that was supposed to land under (or on) the cruiser, but the the Slip Space Rupture took out his power and chucked the "rock" he was in directly at the rookie.

Edit- You are right, technically its not an EMP
