How does 90mm of Tungsten strike ya?

Are the ODSTs fitting with semi-powered infiltration armor, like what I read about in the Onyx book? Also, have they been bio-engineered like the SPARTAN I & II programs?

No. It is just a gameplay mechanic added to the game.

That was footage from Firefight, which is non cannon.

Give a man fire he's warm for a day light a man on fire he's warm for his life.

And yet we can't dual wield.....

A mythic member but I speak my mind to much.

I guess your wondering how he is walking around with the chaingun?

i was thinking that too. I dont think he would be strong enough to rip one off its mount, but probably disassemble the mount, or pick one up off the floor, with a lot of effort.

He may be one of the physically stronger ODST's

5 years and counting on Bungie. I feel old and worthless.

No, they are just Elite-trained Marines. They are the equivalent of Special Operations.

I'm almost sure somewhere in the Halo 3 manual it speaks of the fact that ONLY Spartans are able to carry the turret.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

It's just fun to use a machine gun turret so we will be able to use it.

WTH are you talking about? ODSTs are like SAS or Delta, not some poorly trained SWAT team!

When it's well-known that Elites and SPARTANs are strong enough to carry usually-mounted machine guns, and we're now presented with a non-biomedically augmented person, it raises suspicion.

I think it actually looks pretty cool, and shows that she ODST is clearly under more stress that the Spartan/Elite carrying it if you look closely enough.

Hey, if Jesse Ventura can do it, so can Dutch.
