He landed on the canon. The resulting crash left a plothole a few miles deep, but he survived.

Throughout the level you can clearly see that Six is wearing a special backpack. This is specifically designed for reentry.

M-Spec Reentry Pack

Done.

Well, that explains it fairly well. I'd imagine that's the piece of wreckage Six is leaning over in the cutscene then.

I find this funny.

He got out of range of the blast and had a re-entry pack to make it to the ground.

If Jorge had given him time to yank off a door, he could have gotten away with locked armor and otherwise none the worse for wear.

In fact, all Spartans should carry doors in the event of reentry.

To be fair, he might have had a slight limp for all of 10 minutes, though.

Hahahaha. I thought it was the re-entry kit Six had...but this seems a lot more likely.

I believe Spartans have at one point done the same exact thing that Six did (I forgot which book it was from, but I remember reading it) but many of the Spartans were killed/injured from entering the atmosphere from vacuum.


I believe the part from the books you're talking about is from First Strike when it tells how the Spartans the MC deployed planet-side to defend the MAC generators during the Battle for Reach and they had to abandon their damaged pelican and free-fall all the way to the surface.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

Yeah, he gets his Pistol out of it, next time you see that cutscene bear it in mind and you can see it fairly clearly.

I'll remain a soldier until the war is won.

Thats a good question because he cant een survive a fall from 15 ft without dyeing.


No, its because he wore a re-entry pack.

Wow, nice find. Added on to this, all spartans can lock their armor and pump hydrostatic(is it?) gel to lessen the impact.

Yeah and I'm pretty sure there was only one KIA and a few wounded.

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.

Win.

And yes, Six had a re-entry pack.
