Subject: Does anyone notice the smg Sgt. Johnson is holding is longer?

"Anyone can give up it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's the true strength."

In the right banner, the advertising one in the right side, it depicts Sgt Johnson with what seems to be a silenced smg but the end is a bit longer. Are my eyes seeing the wrong thing or is it right?
Post what you think.
Maybe I'm just wrong and the thing is just apart of his arm..

Edit: I was unclear about my topic, I'm talking about the stock of the gun not the supressor.

Are you serious or joking? If you're serious then just watch any of the videos released about ODST or just look at the project page. Its a new weapon, if you're a troll, good one.

It does look longer.

I hope this isn't some sort of racial joke, lol.

Without me, it's just "Aweso".

I think he's talking about the length of the silencer.

I personally think he is far too concerned with size. Over compensating much?

Thank you sir, that was an epic rendition of this topic.

and how!

The stock seems to be extended farther than on the in game model, and unless you have been living under a rock since months before E3 [the M7S was in the original reveal trailer] you should be aware that it has a suppressor on it.

Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

*clears thought* Ehh.. do you mean like this one?..

Let Sgt. Johnson die on Halo.

Yes it is longer, if you look closely, he has the stock extended. Some people who have longer arms need to do that to fire properly.


Oh yeah, the Stock is extended out a bit. Nice find!

"Anyone can give up it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's the true strength."

Sorry, I'm not trolling and I do know it's a silenced smg, but I'm talking about the back of the smg, not the supressor.

Everyone is aware that the SMG has always had a collapsible stock since Halo 2, right? Even for Master Chief. When he's using one SMG, the stock is extended. When the SMG is dual wielded, the stock is collapsed.

You can notice it pretty well in the Halo 2 cutscene of (coincidentally) the ODST drops onto Delta Halo at the beginning of the level "Delta Halo". As the Chief is exiting the drop pod, he pulls out an SMG and the stock extends.

So, nice catch about the extended stock on the SMG that Johnson is holding, but it isn't a new feature if thats what you're asking.

Why don't we just share the hill?

yes your rite it is longer nice job spotting that

Never really noticed about the stock extending and not extending when you dual-wield.

Rofl. I am sorry. That picture was too funny.

  • 06.20.2009 12:35 PM PDT

For the record, this was the banner in question. The stock does look a little over extended.

Your friendly and eccentric Sangheili forum-poster. :)

It's not longer, he just has less armour than the ODSTs.
