cant answer the lack of feminism but as to why there are no pedistrians, maybe because theres a war going on in the city, i certainly wouldnt walk around in the street in the middle of a huge battle.

It's FOE Hammer.

And who knows - maybe we'll see some in the sequel. there were concepts for Female deck crew members, and maybe combat positions are still gender-based...yet, don't you think Earth could use all the help it could get? AND let's not forget our lovely SPARTAN Females......Ahhh, my voloptuous Linda.....*swoon*

As to PEDESTRIANS, f*** 'em!! don't have the BALLS to get out there and FIGHT, then let 'em stay unrecognized!!!

Actually most of the pilots in Halo where women. This has already been deiscused and the genreal conclusion that womens reflexes are faster than mens so they make better pilots. I

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

Actually that's not true, it was a myth that Robert Heinlein perpetrated in his SF books, because he thought that.
BTW His books rule.

why would there be pedestrians in halo 2 when theres going to be covenant swarming earth? you dont say, "oh im going on a short walk in the park, and if i dont come back, its probably because the cvenant killed me or captured me"

There may very well be a massive evac to.....um...wow, where would we all go? sheesh...Maybe they just all go under ground? or to some super-spooky secret colony somewhere?

Maybe there WILL be pedestrians...shouldn't we call them CIVILIANS? maybe they'll be all like "HEY!! BIG MC!!! Need that 'Hog fixed up? i'm a Mechanic, conveniently placed here for your utilization! So are my friends over there, Mr. Weapons Specialist, Mrs. Hell O. Nurse and Mr. Plumber!! he's fodder for the Grunts - he'll cover your Six! ...not for long, however...see, he's crosseyed, and not to mention a little... off...."

Kinda like that.

Civillians would be cool, like go around there and see if there are any bad guys....I'll go over here and have a soda while you do that.

civilians would add a cool colonized feel to the earth levels. but other than that they would only be good for wasting ammo. and if there was a level where you had to resuce civilians and none of thm could die i would be severly pissed. but on the topic of woman marines and pilots...yes where are they. they are in the books. one of the coolest characters in halo: the flood is lutenant mckay and shes not in the game. so ya there should be women marines and pilots. that would rock.

THere should be a mission dedicated just for saving HOT civilian women in the city and give you a nice "thank-you gift" at the end of the level...
oohhh! and little kids playing with a plasma grenade given to them by their friend Grunt(who is being fed by their moms while he smokes in their dining room..
how the hell did i come up with that idea? who cares...

I think the reason for the lack of Famales in Halo: CE would be the lack of time. I like to think of Halo1 as a demo for Halo 2. Halo: CE is fun but incomplete.
There are biological reason for having women as polits and men as grunts: women are smaller and so are less effected by G forces (though in space this shouldn't matter but I'm not an astronaut), and can multi-task better than men, targeting enemies, watching all those gauges, and trying not to die...( I know I can only do the first and the last things at the same time)
Men got testosterone giving them an edge in strength, they're usually better in hand to eye coordination, and focusing on a single task. These are very general gender traits that vary from person to person. I'm not saying women are weak(plz don't flame me I'm fragile); infact women weight lifters usually have better lifting ratios than men, men just happen to be bigger.
I believe I heard that women will play a much bigger role in Halo 2.

Maybe all the civilians have been given a gun and sent out to die in The Fight For Justice and for Mc'Donalds(we cant have fast food blown up now can we). I would say that naturally fighting is easy for men. Women can too......... accept when my women doe's something wrong, she will go off her head at u. F this FU..... Men u understand right. My point is that maybe women r dating elites, grunts and hunters too get in there head and make them go crazy so they would leave the earth alone........ yeah thats it...... Men fighting, Women dating LOL...... ah ha ha ha ha ha ha. But serious I think they should have women fighting in Halo 2 as Marines and SPARTANS ect.

No one can say that there aren't any girls in H2. Only 2 films have been shown to the public. (hopefully that will change). I think that if they added a hostage situation then it would be more fun instead of just "go kill everything that is in your way". Maybe bungie will reveal more secrets at the next E3 instead of showing us a cool combo move.

ok here is my theory, in the Halo 2 trailor when MC takes the swan dive out of the cargo bay, it looks to me like the covenant are concentrating their fire on florida, ahem. Since MC takes the battle to Florida it can only be assumed a majority of the game will take place here, and who my friends live in florida? Old People, thats right, and since this game takes place in the future, all the old people died long ago. so no civilians, sorry.

what the hell are you talking about? if theres young people, sooner or later, theres going to be old people!!

  • 05.06.2004 9:06 PM PDT

Why pedestrians?Look at it this way, if you were a normal person who lived on Earth would you stay in a city with a war going on in it? No, if you have common sense and yes if were talking about someone like you.lol

I'm sure in Halo 2 they'll have plenty of female troopers. And then the civillians will come out, and they'll be all "yeah, look at me Master Chief I can use a gun!" and then all the teenagers can fire spitballs at Grunts and make them pissed off. And then I'll be like "eat nuclear missle you intergalactic ****ers!!!" and make them dead. And then we'll have kamikaze ninjas from Ninja Gaiden and they'll be all "eat -blam!-ake!" And then all of my Scottish kinsmen will throw giant pillars of stone at them and be yelling "get stuffed and shut your hagis holes!" And then when the Master Chief is getting an award for saving the planet, he'll say "see, civillians helped save the planet!" And that's how it'll be.

Probably because a woman would be obliterated by an elite in one hit, and a male it two or three.
