Subject: noble teams death scenes.

why did kats death have to be so lame, and in the middle of a sentance. her death was comparable to that of anthony carmine in gears 1. emiles death was awesome because he took two zealots with him. for carter id say he was pretty tired of flying. for george do we even know hes dead? he used a slipspace drive to take part of the huge carrier and a full corvette in which he was in and still had life support so is he dead? every one knows that jun is alive. and six had a pretty good death scene, kind of like emiles but the sword stopped him.

Well not every Spartan can die a awesome way. Bungie probably wanted to make Kat's death "unseen", so they made her talking to the rest of Nobel Team while she died. George was in the Middle of a Covenant Super Carrier when half of the ship transported to oblivion, so yes he did died.

Some can come away from reading "War and Peace" thinking it a simple adventure story, while others can read the ingredients on a gum wrapper and unlock the secrets of the universe.

I thought her death was perfectly played out. Like mentioned above, not everyone is going to have a B.A. death. When Kat died I sat in stunned silence. My rough thought process in the following seconds were along the lines of "W-T-F".

The sudden nature of it was shocking and crippling. Bungie really knew what they were doing emotionally wise with the game. The best Halo Campaign, in my opinion.

CoD is a good game, even if the Halo series are better in some aspects. Anyone who insults either is just bad in that game. Grow up.

I agree with everything up till here. When my mind was thinking "W-T-F", I was thinking why the hell did a Spartan just run out into the open (in a clearly hostile environment) with her shield down. If it had been a beam rifle, I would understand, but NR? Come on. In this way, her death was like Emiles; uncharacteristic of a Spartan.

Yea, but he teleported to oblivion, AKA nothingness.

I agree, totally didn't see it coming. What I don't get is why one needle rifle round to the head took her out? Oh wait...maybe it had something to do with the nuke or emp blast or whatever it was...idk. I think it was more realistic that way though, without warning. Carter's seemed a bit unnecessary...why didn't he try to destroy the scarab and die trying? I mean you blew up scarabs in Halo 3 with hornets... and then Jun puzzled me. I assume he died at some point escorting Halsey, maybe so she could get away and die later or something. idk. But point is Kat's death was really good. Oh yeah there's no way Jorge could've survived that.

Can people stop calling it oblivion like it's an actual place? It's a colloquialism to refer to the fact that they aren't coming back.

Plus, this slipspace bomb - we can't tell how it would work. It doesn't follow the rules of normal slipspace mechanics (as are given to us) the same way SFTEs don't follow normal laws of physics.
There is no way I can think of an 'incorrectly mounted' SFTE leading to such a huge disaster as a ship destroying itself inside slipspace.

Jorge died when he activated the Slipspace bomb in the Corvette.

  • 11.21.2010 8:21 AM PDT

You can call me Lavernius Tucker, Bow-chicka-bow-wow

In this way, her death was like Emiles; uncharacteristic of a Spartan.

Emile's death was exactly how i think a spartan should go out! who else can take an energy sword to the chest and still pull out a double kill? only a spartan that's who

I agree. The amount of radiation they picked up from what seems to be a Nuke would have logically been accompanied by an EMP that may have tampered with some of the suits more fragile system mechanics.

Sure, the capability of taking an energy sword to the chest IS exclusive to Spartans. But refer to this to see why I say it's uncharacteristic of a spartan.

My favorite group.

This goes in the Halo: Reach forum.

And also, you should really put "SPOILERS" in the title.

Baird, the ODST from the midlothian took a sword to the chest and then went on to kill a ton of other Covenant.

  • 11.21.2010 9:38 AM PDT

he got hit with a hammer back

  • 12.23.2010 9:19 PM PDT

I agree, Kat's death was rather lame. I was like "WTF, a NR did that?!?! SERIOUSLY?!?".

I would say that for all intents and purposes, as of right now, Jorge is dead, but he can easily be brought back without creating difficulties in canon. It's almost the same scenario as Chief, except we actually know Chief is still alive.

It likely created a slipspace portal far closer than it was supposed to, inside the ship instead of in front of it. The forerunners actually could choose where their portals appeared and used them in a similar way in ship to ship combat. Also, because it is a portal, not oblivion, there is a slight possibility that Jorge and the corvette were safely transported, or they were destroyed and there molecules were transported to empty space, one of the two.

But, to be fair, he had taken some drugs that rendered him incapable of feeling pain. Emile also had the blade straight through him. As far as I can remember, Baird caught the end of the blade.

i think the idear of the bomb was to performe a uncordinated slip space jump meaning the part consumed was 'jump' to a random spot in space that whould of be decided by the drives a.i on 'detonation' so realy all that hapend was thay just jumped but as the drive was mounted wrong the slip space rupture whould have closed immediately crushing it in to just energy ( <- a little bit of quantum physics)

carter may not of been able to disable the scarab if he got out or used the pelicans weapons (if any). to ensure the survival of cortana and the remander of noble team, he had to cause the scarab as much damage as possible, as quickly as possible.

I agree with Agustus, on everything but this campaign being the best. The Halo 2 and CE campaign were the best.
Emile's a badass cuz even after being cut straight through with an Energy Sword he still turned and stabbed him in the neck. And yes, Jorge is dead.
Carter's death wasn't that good, too boring.
Kat's death was a master piece as was Noble 6's.
