Subject: Will you kill or protect Covenant Engineers in the game?

They have stated in the Halo 3 ODST achievements that Engineers will be in game and will likely rapair broken Vehicles in the game. But will you keep them alive or kill them?

I wish I was still legendary.

I'm going to wait for the strategy guide before judging the authenticity of those definitively, to I'm gonna go for both, on different playthroughs.

M.A.W

well since there are 2 achievments that say dont kill an engineer through out the entire campagn and another one that says kill 10 engineers in campagn im guna go through my 1st time around not killing then go back really fast kill 10 then -blam!- campagn never playin it again

It depends. What do they do? Does killing them hurt covenant arms/forces or whatever.
Perhaps letting them live lets you have more armory for yourself as well.

I dunno, I'll probably just play it however i want.
When I replay it later, I'll -blam!- the game and explore every nook and cranny, go for achevies, etc.

Halo: CE Anniversary Achievement Idea
C-C-C-CANNON BREAKER!
Let Sgt. Johnson die on Halo.

I always liked the Engineers in the books, so I'll let the little guys live.

Ill either keep them alive, or kill them on my first playthrough, and do the opposite on the next.

Although if they try to repair enemy vehicles, then I'll likely kill them.

In the days of old, there were legends of a land long lost to time. This land was known as Ranna'Mor. Ranna'Mor was said to contain in its borders 7 warriors. These warriors had once unleashed a veritable hell upon the ancient world, until they were locked away. My name is Toriad, and I am one of those warriors. Our return is approaching. Do not run away, do not cower in fear; take solace in your final days, for that is all we can do. -Legend of Ranna'Mor

Both. First playthrough I'm going to avoid killing them, and second playthrough I will. Simple. After that, it will depend on what they are doing, and how killing them/letting them live affects me.

KAOS DEAMON:
A slight ‘’incident’’ has occurred in the forum. Me and Random have both been banned by myself. Which is annoying? Hopefully this is fixable? PLZ? Random is becoming angry.

Let them fix then kill them

Death to rank junkies.

I'm not going to kill them. Who knows, they might fix a vehicle that I will be able to use.

I agree i'm just goin in for those achievements and getting out because everyone knows deep inside ODST are pansies. MC used to kill them for ammo and BRs

  • 07.20.2009 1:29 AM PDT

I think killing them would probably just be a waste of my ammo and kinda sadistic as they were never described as dangerous. Seeing as how there is an achievement thou I'll just have to play through it twice.

  • 07.20.2009 1:36 AM PDT

Hasent this thread been made twice before?

"Gaming is having a ridiculously huge TV in a tiny one room apartment. It's staying up until 3 a.m. to win a trophy that isn't real...but is. And though we may pledge fanboy allegiances to different flags, deep down inside, we all serve one master, one king, and his name is gaming! Forever may he reign!"

rofl let your smg decide! but i wont kill them for the first playthrough i would like to see what they look like up close.

I wont kill 'em. It'll be hard convincing my mate not to though...

  • 07.20.2009 3:54 AM PDT

I'll do the one that gives u a higher gamer score then the other one

  • 07.20.2009 4:28 AM PDT

I love Halo, I have played it since the beginning, even though I may not have had Xbox Live back then. Marathon is also a pretty good game.

Thank You Bungie! For the best games and Recon Armor. Also thanks for the early access to the Halo: Reach Beta!

This account was hacked and I now have a new account.

Well because the acheivement for not killing them is worth more I probably won't kill tham at first.
