ODST was set during halo 2 back befor the brutes had power armor and if Phantoms are better than spirits why didnt the covenant use them in halo 1, thus leading common sense to think that phantom where developed after or during the event of halo 1 and brought into action around the time earth was attacked the first time (halo 2) but of corse this could be wrong.

Actually, no. Brutes had the armor, but Tartarus's brutes were not allowed to wear it. Brutes have had power armor since Harvest.

This is true. What you are most likely seeing in Halo 2 were civilian garments (They can't draw attention to themselves, yet).

it doese'nt look nextgen , looks good but not nextgen
If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

I like the Phantom. As a ship its better designed and it can hold a huge amount of troops plus it has more firepower. The Spirit only has that crappy 3 barreled lazer gun.

It's going to be Phantoms, I think.

Spirits were only used in CE because the covenant didn't have anything else to use. I think Spirits are supposed to be for carrying cargo, not troops.

Phantom's better designed, the Spirit doesn't make much tactical sense except for smashing Hunters on either side of a column.


Pft yeah, like that would ever happen. *rolls eyes*


... Oh, wait.

you are a good translator
Idiot can be a hard language to learn, but once you get it down, everything becomes so clear! The whole world will make sense to you.

They can be used together. I can see a group of Phantoms carrying Infantry with two or three Spirits carrying vehicles and a few soldiers.

The Phantom should be used when things really hit the fan. Phantoms should carry SpecOps Elites, Hunters, or other powerful enemies.

Spirits should be a bit more common and carry basic ground forces. Phantoms should still be used extensivly, but Spirits should be more common for the sake of canon.
