We know isn't easy. John couldn't walk into a crowd of 10 elites and kill them all. Normal seems a bit to easy but I don't know. Did John go on Heroic having to think about every move he made, but had a little trouble? Or did he hide after every stream of fire on Legendary? Or maybe the reason he was able to fight such a massive army alone most of the times was because he was on normal?

(Difficulty for the Spartan's that where in the books too.

Yeah I'm reading the books in order and when I got to one of the games I had to play it on Heroic. Legndary was to hard for Halo 1, and I could do it on 2, 3, ODST, and Reach but it would have taken to long, so I did it on Heroic thinking it was the most canon.

While I don't agree with this exactly I get what you're saying. I think you talking about the fact that there are some parts in the books that seem like Heroic difficulty, and other that are easy. Right?

Unfortunately I don't remember enough to name examples.

Or perhaps, in the middle of Heroic and Legndary? Like Heroic plus Easy? Haha

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Heroic, for sure. Normal is too easy and Legendary is too hard. (Well, Legendary isn't hard for me, but I mean in general.)

  • 07.07.2011 9:36 PM PDT

Agreed, Heroic. It shows the Master Chief for who he really is.

Technically it should be Normal, but going from the descriptions in the books I would say definitely Heroic.

  • 07.07.2011 10:27 PM PDT

If you're passionate about the thing you're talking about, I'll always lend an ear.

Out of all of them I would say Legendary.

But in all honesty it would be like both sides on easy difficulty health.

  • 07.07.2011 10:34 PM PDT

Well, for the heroic description it does say " This is the way halo is meant to be played" or something like that...

It's more like easy in the sense that damage to enemies is like that on easy.

Inversely damage you take as well as how accurate enemies are and how they behave would be more in line with heroic and legendary.

The marines in ODST take damage canonically it seems regardless of difficulty. Just 1-3 shots of anything on any difficulty when not in a vehicle
