Am I supposed to write something funny here?
So I have seen people here say that, but it seems kinda impossible for everyone in the UNSC have a brain surgery. Also I'm pretty sure some people would not want it.
I checked neural implant pages on halopedia and halo nation, and both are the same, and say everyone has it. But there are no sources.
The pages list the functions of basic implant being IFF and showing guns reticle, but there are some problems with that.
First: If implant makes you see the reticle, then why we see those green eyepieces?
Second: IFF could be achieved by some random chip somewhere, like in shoulder, as seen in arms race. Yes, it could be vaccinations, but wouldn't people already have them? (There was stuff about extensive vaccination program in Halsey's journal)
Or is it said somewhere else, that everyone has implants?
EDIT: VISR page on Waypoint says about the ODST VISR that "Unlike the variant used by SPARTAN-II super-soldiers, there is no neural interface prerequisite to the VISR."and"At its core, VISR is a standard HUD that offers real-time tactical information about the wearer's health, ammunition count, and mission objectives."So it's the standard UNSC HUD, and it doesn't require neural interface, so standard HUD doesn't require neural interface.
So glasses, eyepieces and helmets are only thing you need to see reticle, locations of teammates (shoulder chip or something in armor being the transmitter) and objectives. Any flaws in this?
