technically it was never announced if we are playing as spartans... we could be playing as a nameless marine in reach... and yes some stuff can be based off the books which I havent read but don't forget halo is bungies things so they could go way off the books and do it how they think it should have happened...

Eat raw meat.
Punch a bear in the face.


If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

Depends on who we play as. However, the ODST grenade throw would SUCK in MP.

Thats not confirmed...... but i think we will be spartans (cuz they kick -blam-) And the spartans were less sophisticated in on Reach. So maybe they will make them throw like ODST's (i hope not)

Its pretty much a 99% chance that we are playing as Spartans.

Halo 3 style. I can place a frag exactly where it needs to go to bring someoen sheild down, ODST, I dont know whats going on but that is the worst style I have ever seen, I kept over shooting the nade becasue I though I had to aim above where I wanted it to land.

That's not comfirmed. Anyways, the only Spartan I see is the shadow on the left.

Less sophisticated? In no way were they less sophisticated. Where did you get that idea? The Battle on Reach wasn't too far from Halo: CE.

Then sir you are blind, look at their knees, shoulders, and body.

How to spell "space"?

S-P-ACE! SPACE!

Honestly, you shouldn't have those lucky sticks any more.

We should have a shorter throw, but not have it arc up.

He is basing his assumption on the concept that all spartans are exactly the same size and build.

I'm assuming he didn't read the books.

They're enhanced to be the best they can be, but some are still faster and others stronger. It's pretty logical to believe than some may be different sizes.


As to the original topic. Spartans, even without armor were faster and stronger by far than humans without drugs and gene therapy. No ODST grenade throwing please..

Read the book. And Halo CE spartans are less powerful. Slower, less jumping hight, slower shield regen.


I did read the book, and I played Halo CE. I don't remember any grenade throwing being too different from CE to 2 or 3. Of course they would be a little less powerful, but nothing drastic enough to affect their grenade throwing too much.

Master Chief was notably faster in Halo CE.

Also, I personally want the grenade throws from Halo CE. I loved being able to throw the grenade a half mile; it made me feel like a super soldier.
