Subject: Do you think Master Chief has a face?

We are soldiers without borders, our purpose defined by the era we live in. This is our Heaven, and our Hell.

We know that we will most likely never see Master Chief's face. The only two places that will be windows of opportunities to see his face are:

CE Remake (Extended final cutscene with different angles)

Halo 4



The question I am asking you is...


...do you think Bungie has a picture of Master Chief's face at the studio? Do you think they gave him a face but will never reveal it?

I think that would be pretty cool if they actually had copies of his face stored away. If 343 was to show it, perhaps they would get it from Bungie, representing the change from Bungie to 343.

I wouldn't doubt that there is some concept art for it somewhere.

Still, the Master Chief is faceless for a reason: So the player can better imagine themself as the MC.

Bungie does have huge binders of ABSOLUTLEY EVERYTHING Halo. I wouldn't doubt there a picture in there somewhere

Obviously he has a face, it is the Rookie's helmet, because he is the Rookie.

John-117 has short brown hair, brown eyes and is very pale because he did spend most of his time in his armor.

So that's how it is. You all ought to know better than that.

Read Halo: The Flood. Its in there some place. If you want his face as a boy, read Halo: Fall of Reach.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

Yes. He has brown hair and has animal like features. It says it in Halo: The Fall of Reach.

  • 12.15.2010 6:10 PM PDT

I'm pretty sure he does, but I doubt we will ever see it.

  • 12.15.2010 6:14 PM PDT

I'm a guy of simple taste, I enjoy dynamite and gunpowder, and gasoline.... you know the thing they have in common? they're cheap.

exactly, even if they do and they do it realistically it won't be what people are expecting. I'd be willing to bet that his face is really scarred up missing teeth not to mention plasma burns, he would look like a wreck.

Its hard to put a face to his voice.

Scan the face of Stephen Downes, take a few years off (even though MC IS pretty old..)

Wah lah.

I don't know if this analogy works, but for citizens of Gotham city, Batman has a mask to cover his face right?, that doesn't mean Batman's faceless, it apply the same way for the Chief, he is a human being ofcourse he has a face, it just Bungie don't want you to see it.

Happy now?

There are some fan made pictures of John on Deviant Art if you are interested in other peoples views of what MC might look like - I think this one:

sums up young John for me...

Well, they describe his face in the fall of reach novel, so I'm pretty sure he has a face, otherwise that would be unnatural, spartans are humans too.

have you read any of the books, if not read them

Finding the love of my life, and moving house really screwed up my gaming orientated lifestyle.

How Fred looks in Halo: Legends; is how I see Master Chief in my mind's eye.

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

Yes he has a face, but we have never seen it and I hope we never will.

In Fall of Reach, he is described (as a boy) with brown hair, brown eyes and pale skin. The only description we have of his parents are when he describes his mother, in which he says she "was kind and smelled of soap."
