My dreams involve me getting run over by a tricycle.

I've noticed that you are able to do 2 things that ODST's aren't supposed to be able to do(I'm pretty sure):
1. ODST's can pick up turrets, I thought Spartans could only do that.
2. ODST's can use Gravity Hammers?

Explain to me how they can do this...

Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing?Then whence cometh evil?Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God?"

You don't have to be super human to pick up a turret in resident evil 5 chris hold/runs with one and a hammer doesn't seem that heavy for them.

Also Its a -blam!- GAME!

they ate there wheaties

And so there was a man who ate cake.

And he was happy it was that way.

First of all, when the UNSC created those turrets, do you think they were specifically made for MCs use? I doubt they were thinking "Hmm, Master Chief may need to rip this off and carry it around, so lets make sure all turrets have the ability to be pulled from their hinges".

Second, Troopers aren't weaklings. They can probably pick up a gravity hammer without too much difficulty. For all we know the thing is hollow.

Third, it's a game, stop criticing little things like this and enjoy it.

1. Obviously, I know its a Halo game, not supposed to be realistic...
2. I was just thinking that Gravity Hammers, when you actually hit with them, would be too strong for an ODST
3. CALM DOWN, I was just pointing out some things I thought contradicted logic(Especially with the turret, for in a review it was said that 'Spartans are strong enough to rip off turrets,' so I was using my context clues).
4. Did my post ever suggest "OMGz IT DOESNTT FOLO HALO STORY AT ALL!!1!one!" As I said above, I was pointing out things that I noticed...

lol@halo community, I get flamed on the first thread that I ever make here, pointing out some things...

omg win! lmao! but you can only use the hammer and carry turrets in firefight NOT in campaign so OP get your facts straight before you start your -blam!-ing.

Sorry, mate.

We're not trying to bite your head off (atleast I'm not), but these threads about this same topic seem to pop up again and again so it's a bit frustrating.

Sorry if my first post made it seem like I was angry, because I'm not, I'm just frustrated over this same subject popping up constantly.

"You know our motto: We Deliver."

The designers claimed that they wanted fun over realism. Thus, the ability to wield the hammer and turret. And Firefight is non-canon, I believe.

Hey dude I feel bad for almost everyone picking on you. But anyways ODST's like it has been said are tough as nails marines. The blast can probably send them flying backwards. You never know though.

It's because many people have posted the same thing, and I guess that they got tired of it, and let there frustration on you. This does lack th search bar, but i'm giving you grief for being new here.
