Not panic when a plasma grenade gets stuck to them, and then rip it off an through it.

I bet that could be funny to watch, ever put tape on an infants hand? lol

If MC can't then they can't, but it would be nice if they didn't panic. Having a Elites reaction or somthing.

Orbital Drop Shock Troops... If I remember right. The best fighters for humans, besides the Spartans. Read the books and you'll know all about them.

Watch the E3 demo, they are the first guys to jump out of the Pelican with you. They have black helmets and blue visors.

I think if somones throwing a plasma grenade at you, and you melee attack and time it right, you should be able to bat the grenade away. but for the marine guys, if their smart, they should run far away from their own guys if they have a grenade stuck to them. Not run straight into a group like the grunts. Not to insult the grunts, i love those little guys.

On the topic of grenades and not panicing...
It would be tight if, when a greade was throne into a group of Mariens one of them would yell GREANDE! and jump on it and shield everyone from teh blast, like in We Were Soldiers (wonderful movie, even more amazing book).

You can't rip a plasma off your self, it burns the skin and the burnt melting skin makes it stick to you it is VERy painfull i would belive..... Although elites don't panic when they get taged by one.. Those basterds.

I doubt any of them would be that brave.

That would be really cool. And I think there would have to be at least one marine in a war torn world that would have enough courage to sacrifice themselves to ensure their comrades safety.

Ever played the game Medal of Honor: Allied Assault? Sometimes a German will do the exact same thing, jump on the grenade to save everyone else.

I think it would be cool since they know there going to die if they run right into the middle of the group of elites that stuck him.

Elites run AT you when you stick em. Thats what an odst should do, exept run at the covies.

actually a marine did that in April in Iraq and it's better than have to watch 7-8 guys around you get pieces of metal in their head and watch blood pour out while you get one to the spine paralyzing u 4 life.

Actually elites do run crazy more than they charge at you after having a nade stuck on their head.

That always bothered me in the game...Sure plasma burns but it still takes a few seconds to melt in...and by that time the marine could throw off his shoulder pad or his one of his pads of armor. I think ODST's should have like a detactable armor where if a plasma nade lands they can pop off a peice of there amror and not get hurt.

Yeah I suppose, not like MC's armor is quick and easy to remove all by himself.

I'd like to see one of the normal marines get one stuck to his balls(or just crotch area) and yell OH MY GOD WHO'S THE SON OF A -blam!- WHO THREW THAT!!? right before it goes boom, that would just be beautiful.

Yes but Rift was talking about an armor piece, like shoulder pads etc.
