I put the laughter in manslaughter

Not for that reason, but moreso because ODSTs were the greatest of the UNSC then you get the spartans who were given augmentations and an extremely powerful suit and bypass the ODSTs as the greatest.
The ODSTs had to work for what they got, whereas the spartans were basically thrown into it with the augmentations and the spartan suits.

I think it's one of those "sibling rivalry" things. ODSTs are sometimes assigned with SPARTANs because they are the best of the best, but the SPARTANs are the best of the best of the best. ODSTs look bad compared to them. But on their own they look better (that's probably why the ODSTs in The Babysitter weren't happy that their sniper was a SPARTAN)

Yeah ODSTs always got the good press and then came the Spartans and kicked them off their high horse. Jealousy basically. Well That's what I remember anyway...

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

Think from an ODST's point of view. You are the greatest soldiers of your race, respected by Marines and Civilians, then you get a bunch of green armored giant super soldiers who can take 4 of you no problem, they then take your place and become legends.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect


:)
The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Pretty much.

Most ODST's after fighting alongside Spartans or seeing them in person tend to respect them highly. But if they dont (or are just dumb like the Major), they will continue to disregard them.

I'm an Anarchist. I don't need a government to be a good person, but I'm glad it's here because some of you clearly do.

ODST's are just like modern day Marines. They think they're hot -blam!-, and up front they hate anybody who might be better. Note what the Bullfrogs say to N6 on Reach; "Try to keep up."

ODST's know they're weaker than Spartan II's, but feel as if they should be on the same level of respect, and I'd have to agree with them, but obviously the rest of humanity probably just sees the ODST's as the best of the best of the past.

You know it does nothing. It did nothing in Halo 3-1, you just did not notice it. Go on Halo 3 and rapid fire at a wall and the bullets get more random. Don't try to deny it. I've shot real guns, I should know.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

I don't see any hate. They seem to support Chief in Halo 3. I think those guys were . . . big jerks.

They have a dislike of each other as The spartans get all the fame and glory that the ODST used to get but in the field they would have repect for each others abilities and work together.

I don't care. I really don't.

Do y'all think that hate still boils strong after the events of Halo 2 and Halo 3?


I don't really think so as all the Spartans are dead from what they know, and they saved their butts, but died or were isolated from humanity in the process. I think they don't care; they didn't have to sacrifice themselves, they're alive and get to go back to their families. I really don't think the ODSTs could care less.

ODST are 'the' best of the human soldiers, they are better than SPARTAN-IIs when you think about it, ODST are just normal people who volunteer to take on the most insane missions and literally drop 'feet first' into dangerous situations. i think the tension between them is caused by the drop troopers believing the SPARTAN-II are fabricated soldiers that don't really have any substance.

UWG Great group, you should check it out.

I think that the ODST's don't think of the SPARTAN's as humans.

Spinny Elite

My friend made a game-type in Halo3 called Spartan vs ODST, that is my theory for all hate. horribly wrong but thats all I got since I don't want to say what has been said over five times already.

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

And note when the fights over the Bullfrogs say "Pleasure jumping with you Spartan."
