Why do people think ODSTs can beat SPARTANS?

  • 07.12.2011 1:52 PM PDT

Nobody believes that. At least I've never heard of it.

Because they are ODST fanboys (and I specify the word boys, as in children) who sloppily attempt to give evidence for their idiotic choice.

Because, call me, optimistic, but I think anything is possible. Just my outlook on the world.

It might have something to do with the fact that they can run not only faster with turrets, but faster than Spartans can with turrets...

Sticking to the cannon, however, you are correct, and I agree that it is rather odd how people can honestly believe they can overpower anyone from the Mjolnir projects. They have less physical strength, endurance, and agility than any of the Spartans. Logically speaking, there is no empirical data available to believe that ODSTs are capable of eliminating a Spartan adversary.

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

So optimism is removing everything about the Spartans that makes them Spartans so your ODSTs even have a 1% chance of winning?

To be honest I think its people coming up with idiotic topics just to be a little more active so they can increase there forum rank, but mostly what spoofacus said.

I'm sorry you can't pay attention, but I said to equally take that away from Buck, too. Then, I followed by saying taking or adding would be stupid (which I realized that I shouldn't have put to give Buck shields). I, in that case, was arguing science, and science states that anything is possible. 1. get your info right 2. pass science class

Even in a hand to hand, no armor fist fight, Carter would win far to easily. Unless you somehow seriously crippled Carter.

Even if we got with Carter vs Buck where Carter has no augmentations and both are at the peak of their physical prime, Carter still has the edge because Spartan training is far better than ODST. By then, Carter may as well just be a generic ODST.

Anything is possible my friend!

Doesn't mean that any Marine Sergeant out there can beat an Arbiter in hand to hand combat, even if melee weapons are allowed.

The Ban Hammer is all that was and all that will be! The Ban Hammer is time and space, life and death! The Ban Hammer can see into your mind! The Ban Hammer can see into your soouull....

Give an ODST metal skeleton bones, genetic upgrades that let's them endurance fight well past death, and armor...yeah and ODST can kill a spartan. -blam!- they killed me everytime I killed Keyes on Halo:CE.

Then he wouldn't be an ODST, but a Spartan.

ok, hands down spartans are the most b.a. thing in the universe but odst's and spartans have differnt jobs so that right there already dosnt make it fare. furthermore spartans are biologically alter'd odst's are not. so that makes spartans better hands down. but if you take that away and just do it by there training spartans still win, because there traing is better. now if we go even deeper and give them even training no sheilds and make them both completely human, spartans still win because come on guys there's a none spoking reason why spartans are spartans and odst's are odst's.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

>.<

It seems as though people who think Spartans will always beat ODST's 100% of the time can't accept others opinions very well.

We should know better, because we are better.

Spartans will win most of the time. An ODST might win if he gets lucky or the Spartan makes a bad mistake.
