Subject: the marines

me and my bro where having a argument about the marines in halo CE and the ones in halo 3 i think the marines where far move loveable and i would do a lot more to keep them alive than i would in halo 3 how about u?

I'll kill you with a pistol.

Yea and in halo 1 all the marines had names and were individual. In H3 all the marines except the sgts are randomly made each time with different faces, hair, eyes, etc. The Australian guys voice is recycled for most of the marines in H3 too which gets really annoying. I mean hav you ever seen a black guy with an australian accent?

In Halo 3 their health actually recharges a little bit but they suck at everything

In Halo 2 they could kill maybe 2 elites and two squads of grunts before dying (On heroic difficulty) and had health regeneration.

However in Halo: CE they always died and shot eachother on accident in a firefight

Halo 2 marines are the best

Some can come away from reading "War and Peace" thinking it a simple adventure story, while others can read the ingredients on a gum wrapper and unlock the secrets of the universe.

They dont have the best A.I. but you just like em more. The thing with the austrailian accent is wired. Bt ive seen the same marine in Halo 3 again and again on different levels.

Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

The marines are better in Halo: Combat Evolved. (In my opinion of course.) ~Cm

  • 07.19.2009 4:55 PM PDT

So halo 1 gives a more realistic view.

What I like about the H3 Marines is that they all have diiferent accents; Black American, American, British, Australian. But your right, despite they're weaker on H1, you just wanna protect them. And I also like it when they're just about to die, they go; YOUR ALL GONNA DIE!!! ARGHHHH!!

Indeed.

I think part of it is, you knew reinforcements weren't there. Once those Marines were dead, that was it. You were on your own.

An opinion should be the result of thought, not a substitute for it.

I liked the australian accents of Halo 1. In Halo 2 it seemed as though every marine had a spanish accent. It got really annoying after hearing "Vida! The mark five!" for seven billionth time.

We have Evolved Combat
We have gone to War
We have Finished The Fight
We have Remembered Reach

HALO, the best thing created after the sliced bread.

i cant stand the marines in halo 3: too coward (the grunts throw them grenades and instead of avoiding it, they just watch it)

In halo 2: they were good allies, way better than the halo 3 ones

Halo 1: friendly fire all the time

Once again..... So It Made Them More Like Real Life Marines!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some Marines in real life would most likely be hideing behind rocks, trees ect. and crying for there mommys, hardly able to pull them selfs together to even shoot at the enemy. But Most of the marines in any of the halos (Mostly 3 IMO) The marines are so cocky and brave it makes me wanna laugh. sometimes i'll sit back and watch them have fun.. (Ducking, rolling, screaming out funny stuff all randomly)

ACTA NON VERBA

I was playing the storm on halo 3 when you go into the factory and I just sat back and watched my marines absolutely do work on heroic. I gave them BRs and shotguns and they massacred the brutes.

  • 07.25.2009 7:40 AM PDT

halo ce marine shot another marine
Marine 1 "oooooowwwwwww"
marine 2 "sorry"

Booooooooooommm marine 2 keeps on shooting

  • 07.25.2009 8:15 PM PDT

yeah exept for one time when i accidentally killed lots of marines in a scorpion and then they started to shoot me. (LOL WUT)

  • 07.26.2009 12:52 PM PDT

The way I see it, we both lost anyway.

I liked he marines in halo 1 but they were dumb no matter what dif level you put it on, they would be easy on legendary.

Wort wort wort!

Here is a thing I made: Linkage

Here is a Leet I made: Link BLARGH

as usual the dude speaks the truth - when it was all dark and all your boys were gone you knew it was time to pucker up. also i feel like they had more respect because they died a little easier at the hands of enemy fire... and if you shot at them all of a sudden your radar went red and all these marines turned on you.

respect due.

and also, when there were missions to rescue them, you felt like that was the mission, not a side effect of what you were doing elsewhere.
