Subject: Is DARE just an excuse to include recon?

I think that you have misunderstood the point of these forums.
They are provided by Bungie for the community. They are here for us to communicate with each other. If/when Bungie employees decide to jump in, it is because they are fans too.
This isn't a think tank, feedback system, or suggestion box for Bungie. They've listened to their fan community, but they don't treat this site as a conduit to the "pulse of the people". And it certainly isn't the Oracle at Delphi for the fans.

in the trailers, to me it seems like her frame can barely support the recon helmet anyway and her armor looks as if it is not battle fit. just saying, is she the scapegoat the bungie chose to have a campaign armor perp?

I'd say yes. It seems as though Bungie wants to compensate in some way by doing that. But who knows if that is going to be the actual helmet size? Knowing Bungie, I'd say if it didn't look good they would definitely fix it.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

The real question is: Is Recon just a ploy to get Dare into ODST? lol

Nah, it doesn't matter anyway, in answer to your question. ONI aren't exactly going to use Hayabusa or Security now, are they?

  • 08.12.2009 3:31 AM PDT

In all honesty, it probably is. But it suits the character and job description anyway, so it's of no great importance.

Probably. : ) Maybe also to show that Spartans aren't the only people who can use some of the gear they use. I know they can't use MJOLNIR, but as you can see they can at least use one variant helmet. Who's to say they can't use more MJOLNIR variants if they're tweaked for normal soldiers?

i can't a imagine a ONI spook running around in a Hayabusa :L lol

Do you even understand anything you just asked?
"She doesn't look right to me, so Bungie's lying about her to make armors in Campaign!"

Dare's going to have an important role in the campaign just like aaallllll the other characters.

  • 08.12.2009 7:29 AM PDT

Isn't she part of ONI and ONI operatives get recon right?

I don't think so.

Although can you imagine Dare in a huge Scout helmet?

She's recon, so she needs recon.

Do you really have so much lack of attention that i would have to quote you to please you?!

i didn't even read this thread just the title.

1. her head is perfectly sized... it is not big, i don't know what you see that makes it look big but it's not, i dont see why it matters anyway.

2. an excuse?... maybe they just felt like putting recon in... i don't know... they were probably like "hey we've got this mysterious character, why don't we put recon on her... cause recon is pretty mysterious to our fans"

Do you really have so much lack of attention that you ignore other posts? I thought so...

  • 08.12.2009 8:55 AM PDT

I like to derp and stuff. I have a YouTube channel~

Derp

Helmet only looks big because of the proportions needed to actually fit her head. If the helmet was proportional-looking without the additional armor to compensate then her actual head would be like 30% too small for real life. Also, I don't think it's a reason to add Recon in campaign. It probably started as an idea amongst the designers, but they previously had backstory to support the idea of recon specialists having, ahem, the recon helmet.

The Fallen Shall be Forever Remembered as the Emporers Finest-----I learned that 92% of teenagers have turned to rap. If your one of the 8% that still listens to real music put this in your sig.

I'm pretty sure that Recon originated for the ODST's and it was just made into a helmet variant for Spartans.

it is RECON you dumb A!


recon means not battle

  • 08.12.2009 5:25 PM PDT

Gigitty Gigitty Goo!

I dont think so, and since the majority of us dont have recon we dont if the recon armor description has any thing related to ONI

  • 08.12.2009 5:33 PM PDT

As a random point, in Halo 3 on Tsavo Highway there's a part where some radio traffic says "this is ONI recon one-eleven" I know it's nothing like actual solid proof, but still?
