HI all,
Everyone says tht MC is the only Spartan alive, But in First Strike Fred, Will And Linda are alive and in the Gettysburg with The MC. Thy all are on their way to earth when the book ends.These 3 other Spartans dont die at all.Can anyone tell me whts goin on here? In halo 2 the new trailer thts in theaters, Tht also says MC is the only one alive. Why s tht so??

And by the way,When fred,will and Linda along with Dr.Catherine Halsey r fighting the camofaluged elites in the tunnels of the Reach CASTLE facility, Fred takes out a elite with only 3 shots from his new weapon(The battle Rifle). Will this possible in the game in legendary mode??

Cheers,
343GS

I am almost certain the Spartans will make an appearance in Halo 2. I think the movie trailer was trying to get a larger target audience for the game, people who probably wouldn't know about First Strike. The book is based from the Halo Bible, which means the events and characters from it will have a direct bearing on the game. I know Bungie will explain the events in First Strike, whether through a quick summary in the instruction manual, a trailer or playable levels from First Strike (we can only hope). We eventually will know happens to the Spartans, I can promise you that. They might be playable in co-op, they might be AI-controlled, or we might not even fight with them in the game, but we will know what happens. As for the Battle Rifle, they embellished alot in the books about the strength of Spartans and Covenants. In the book, Spartans survived a 2000 foot freefall, and no way that could happen in the game.

We can only hope that there are some other spartans in halo 2 because that would just be flat out kick ass. but about the spartan killing the elite in three shots i bet it sould happen because the invisible elites dont have any shields. also they did emphasize that it is an extreamly powerfull gun and if you heard that gun in the demos it sounds really powerfull.

I hope that they will have like a split campaign story with the remaining Spartans. Like they all split up to do different missions and you get to play through the different missions/spartans.

Yeah, that would be awesome.

Like in Jet Force Gemini on Nintendo 64.

4 person co-op? You're basically invincible with a 2 person co-op. I don't think there'd be any Spartan-specific missions though...(it would be sweet to be Linda though.....going through a whole level with just a sniper rifle)

Yeah, it used to be you and buddy wound pin down a Elite and gun him down, but man, I would fell sorry for the Covenant if there were four caffeine driven, hardcore gamers coming down on them. Bungie would need a whole new level of difficulty for that kind of game.
