Subject: Master Chiefs Jetpack?

Happy hunting.

I'm am so confused about the jet-pack MC uses to navigate through the ship were did he get it? If 343 say he always had it but didn't use it I will be so confused why didn't he use it in so many other situations!! But I would like to see an explanation for the jet-pack that just appeared out of nowhere!

The trailer is not to be taken literally. It's just a teaser to showcase certain feature. The game won't play out exactly like the trailer did.

it is not a -blam!- jetpack.


it's either the "next gen EVA tech" or the "null gravity assist package"

<(-_-)> Teh mokey is not amused

Its not a jetpack, its an antigravity booster to help him move through no gravity environment.

I am happy to see someone read Halopedia.

in a new interview with frank, he said that it wasnt a jetpack but you could call it some sort of thrusters..

that's what he said

It's a teaser. No need to take things as canonically accurate at this time, and there's no need to think up of a story to explain it for this scenario either because of it being a trailer.

There are literally hundreds of threads on this... But no one actually knows for sure... People say it is standard in mjolnir mark VI armor... others say it is not... You would just have to wait for 343i to explain things

Welcome to bungie, you have no rights. play nice!
CLICK!

John's armour will get a modification or something will happen to it, he might get a new one or new parts.

But those were microgravity thrusters.

Happy hunting.

That may be right but where did he obtain this tech?

  • 06.10.2011 4:33 PM PDT

Everybody stop getting you panties in a wod. It is not a jetpack, it is zero gravity thrusters used in space operations. These are built into the armor, they've been there, but there hasn't been any use for them until now. If you don't believe me, read the books. Specifically when James dies.

i'm assuming it is something to help him navigate through space.

They havent always been there, and there has been a use for them (Halo 2). James was wearing a t-pack harness that was punctured, and it was also never confirmed that he was KIA.

I'm not sure why people think saying "It wasn't a jetpack, it was a anti-grav thruster" tidies up this issue.

I personally will just wait until more info comes out, right now its all good.

Whether or not it's a new feature in Halo 4 is one thing. However, there is nothing in currently established canon to even suggest that internal thrusters have "always" been implemented. The slightest bit of it came with Halsey's Journal and even then is a vague reference to EVA tech with no confirmation about whether or not they've been implemented

Our big green style, cannot be defeated!

Every time I press the button to use this new thruster pack, I'm gonna be angry. I assume cryo tubes are also repair & refit stations now. Go in, & let those little elves get to work. It's funny how in the first book, The Fall of Reach, it clearly states on page 121, "Spartans", John said, "grab thruster packs and make ready to go EVA". They were already wearing their armor too. Besides, why put it into a trailer if it's not going to be there?

For the last time, they are THRUSTERS. Zero-G THRUSTERS. Given to all Spartan.

Never say you're bored. Never say you're satisfied with the world. Never stop doubting or questioning things. Always wonder. Always think. But always take time to drop your guard, you don't have to be smart all the time.

As I promised in another thread...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!


THERE IS NO CANONICAL SOURCE THAT STATES MARK VI MJOLNIR HAS BUILT IN THRUSTERS.

LOL Bungie just stated they never had this "jet pack" or "thruster pack" on the chief. What is it and where it came from? only 343 knows.

This. Remember the first one they made for Reach? When they were taking off in the Falcons, they were heading straight to war. In the actual game, you're originally sent on an investigation.

Hey! Great! Can I get a source on that?

No?

Then I guess you should stop posting it.
