I know there is a health system beyond the sheild, but how does it work? Can someone please explain this to me so I can prove a point to my friend? :D

basically the same as reach. they just actually have bars for it now

Yes, but I remember there being a post about it made by bungie saying that health in Halo 3 recharged slowly over time. Is there cold, hard evidence proving my point? (Thanks for the response btw.)

Welcome to the world of the Plastic Beach!

i dont think so, i think there is just the shield recharge and then your actual flesh wounds.

Your health recharges slowly in Halo 3. I'll look for a video or something.

I actually did, but when I typed in "Halo 3 health" I got like, "Did you mean, "Halo: Reach visible health bar?" Lol. damn search engines..

The health system in Halo 3 is a bit more complicated. Bungie has stated that players have 115 hit points: 45 health points and 70 shield points. When a player's shields fail, their health becomes vulnerable. If the player avoids taking damage for 10 seconds, their health will slowly regenerate at a rate of 9 points per second. Health and shields are independent; a player's shields can regenerate without their health following suit, so full shields do not necessarily mean that a player is safe from death.

Thank you so much bro! This should be the evidence I require in fighting the good fight against my highly wrong friend. You assisted in helping win an argument. You're the man.
