I think you won't see the Rookie's face. Think about it. Could you imagine him with a face? No. His face is his helmet. I think he's supposed to be depicted as you would Master Chief, his signature helmet.

What do you think?

  • 08.08.2009 7:56 PM PDT

Probably right.

It's all part of the illusion, YOU ARE the rookie. Get it?

Exactly. This is why he his called the rookie to. If you never see his face and you are refered to as the rookie you can imagine your acualy him much more easier.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

Probably, most people would die to see MCs face.

Watch out... I can be anywhere...

Isn't it obvious... Master Cheif is Chuck Norris...
And the Rookie is an underdeveloped clone of Chuck Norris

Actually, I find that I'm more invincible without pants, which is why I am not wearing any at the moment.

I thought this was confirmed : |

And my army of brothers went over the hilltops, drenched in blood we may be.... but fighting is all left to me....together with my army of brothers...down we fall....darkness in all..through hell...

They said you didn't see MC's face because you could imagine yourself as him. I imagine it will be the same.

the rookie hasnt even talked yet. at least masterchief has a voice.

I found the rookie's face

  • 08.08.2009 8:10 PM PDT

Nothing is better than gaming through the day, into the night, then back into the day. It's like when you finally push that power button you feel like you've accomplished nothing, but at the same time, you can't stop smiling.

Even though the Chief has a name and specific origins, Bungie has always wanted the player to feel as though he is the Chief. This also applies to the Rookie.

I know this is ultra un-likely, but for those of you with concrete halo cannon would it be possible for the Rookie to be Spartan - 117's flash clone? The spartans were flashed cloned as children, would the dates match up for the rookie to be a flash clone?

  • 08.08.2009 8:12 PM PDT

GEE! I wundar if itsh sumwit liek Maystar Cneefs hemlit!!!

  • 08.08.2009 8:13 PM PDT


If its masterchief's clone then it must be a failure

  • 08.08.2009 8:15 PM PDT

This is most likely because the reason Master Chief's face was never revealed was to let the player feel as if they actually were in the game, and not just controlling a character. I can see Bungie doing the same thing in ODST.

Which could also explain why Rookie 'doesn't talk much.'

I'm the cult of personality,
I call it like i see it, if i feel the need to be blunt and to the point, then i will, if i feel the need to be very detailed, i will, im here to stay and im here to do things my way, if you respect that or not is your choice, not mine,
and don't worry, while i don't agree with everyone's opinion, i do respect everyone's opinion.

you -blam!- noob the man is dead show some respect

Not possible.

All of the flash clones died when they were 13 years old due to complications with the cloning process.

No, flash clone's organs were meant to fail earlier in their life, so the parents of the kidnapped children wouldn't suspect as to where their actual child is.

It wasn't an accident that ALL the clones died early is what I'm saying.

The reason Bungie doesn't show the main character's face is so that the player has the ability to believe it is themselves that's saving the universe or whatnot.

I don't think you'll see The Rookie's face until the end of the game. Either that, or not at all.

Why respect someone in death that you didn't respect in life? =S
