k the Spartan II idea is so much more outrageous. Firstly they were numbered from 1-300...not 320 so that automatically makes it impossible for sierra 320 to be a spartan II, a spartan III alpha and beta. She can ONLY be a spartan from gamma

Oh and how did ackerson die?

I think im a little misunderstood. I don't think that we will play as spartan III's or that we will even see them. I think that bungie put these call signs in to confuse. However, these call signs have to be from gamma.

Did you not read what I wrote? Jeez.

First of all, the only Spartan candidates that we know to be numbered were numbered 1-150, not 1-300. However, I'll say this again:

It is likely that Dr. Halsey and her technicians started with a larger pool of subjects from which they chose their original 150 candidates, and them from there dwindled them to 75 with the personal inspections. Please actually read what I write.

It is a theory that plausibly explains the number differentiation and does not go against anything we've been given thus far, as opposed to the Spartan-III theory, which has quite a bit going against it.

You are asserting your correctness where you have no proof. No one is correct at this point, because we can not know for sure until more details about the game are released.

It bugs me when people ignore oppositional information. If you're just here to win an argument, rather than discern plausible truths, then the thread is pointless.

I was just reading Ghosts Of Onyx and it said that the Spartan IIIs Gamma Company was not deployed until about a month after the Fall, so it can't be them. As of now, we don't know where they were deployed or why.... so it can not be the Spartan IIIs.

Check ur dates again. Read it from the begining maybe. Also I know im not actually right im just arguing.

The reason I say 1-300 is becasue Hasley has 300 kids that meet the requirements and she goes to each on of them and flips a coin to see if they make it.

New thought: If you watch the video you can see the power generator being blow up by plasma or sum other bomb (the power goes out if you watch carefully). right next to the generator is a huge black space with no fire or anything. Maybe the Mountain that the spartans fall back 2?

Ackerson was killed by a Brute Fleet(?) Commander named Lepidus after he actually fought at the Battle At Mars. He was decapitated.

Has anyone brought up that maybe 259, and 320 are in training and that they are spartan II's and reach gets attacked in the final stages of their graduation?

What dates? I haven't used any dates in any of my responses to you.

The reason I say 1-300 is becasue Hasley has 300 kids that meet the requirements and she goes to each on of them and flips a coin to see if they make it.No she did not. The book tells us '150', not '300'. As I've said countless times now, however, it is very likely that the Spartan-II Project utilized a lot more subjects for an original selection pool of candidates, meaning they could have started with 350, 400, hell, 1,000... we don't know. But never in the novels does it ever say anything about 300 Spartan-IIs. The idea of additional candidates is a speculative theory that I myself employ, but it is not factual, and neither is what you are saying here.

New thought: If you watch the video you can see the power generator being blow up by plasma or sum other bomb (the power goes out if you watch carefully). right next to the generator is a huge black space with no fire or anything. Maybe the Mountain that the spartans fall back 2?
I don't think we can really pinpoint generators from the teaser... we're out in space. Explosions are explosions, and the lights are not discernible from that distance. Anyway, I think you're talking about CASTLE base, which I truly hope makes it into the game.

EDIT:

Okay, now you're just throwing out randomly blind speculation...

Wasnt talkin to u about dates. talkin to the other dude. i dnt care about the spartan II thing. I dnt have my copy of fall of reach so i guess i have to take your word on it. but watch the video again but listen to wat im lookin at.

So you see the damaged ship and then lights from the city then you see the first explosion which I think is the generator because after it gets hit you see the power go out grid by grid to the left of the explosion. We dont knw how the generators were destroyed right? I also think that we would see plasma bombardment coming down from ship but it looks like a bomb was detonated near or in it. Which means that they had to be overrun by covenant forces and this could be the game.

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

I brought this up already. HERE

Edit: For the 'callsign' problem, Bungie could've made the "callsigns" different, to add enigma to the trailer, to add some mystery you know.

Ah I see, my mistake. And yeah, I guess that makes sense. I'm hoping, anyway.

Do not question MY dates. I think it could be a last minute nuclear attack, because I recall that in First Strike, they said that the EMP from the nukes would waste the generators, so why would not it destroy the rest of the city.

I just think that bugie is fooling us into thinking that Sierra 259 and 320 are important but i think they are not because I think we will play with blue team.
