Ruby, His comments were on the rather extensive ADDITIONAL plating on the armor. While it may not physically weigh him down, it'd hinder some agility.
You know, a knight in full plate can't move around like a knight in scale mail?
Actually, contrary to popular beleif, mail hinder's agility more than Plate armor. Plate armor is much more advanced, and is made from high quality parts that fit together perfectly and allow the user to move freely.
People have done tests where they put sensor's on the tests subjects bodies (One with mail, the other with plate), and the mail limited the user more.
Depends on A: type of scale mail or chain mail
B: The user.
I know that fact is semi-true due to my brother and me talking about it. Your facts in the past have been skewed.
There is only one type of Chainmail, and that's chainmail...The other type called "Scale mail" is a completely different form of armor, WAY less common than chainmail, and even more cumbersome.
No, it does not depend on the user. Your facts have been skewered in the past as well buddy.
To stay on topic, I would like to tell those who are using "John survived, Jorge diddn't" as an argument to stop. It's stupid.
If John and Jorge fought, there would be a bunch of factors to consider.
1. Experience: I'm not 100% sure, but it seems like they are roughly on par up to the Fall Of Reach, with John having the extra experience of Halo CE, 2, and 3 under his belt.
2. "Feats". We don't really know much about Jorge's Feats, and what we do know come from ingame experiences. We do know alot about stuff that John's pulled off, after all, he is the main character of the Halo Trilogy. To name a few specific ones other than "saving the universe";
*Fighting his way through Halo, at times alone and at times with some marines
*Surviving the flood
*Surviving through High Charity alone
*Assassinating Regret, and killing numourous Honor Guards alone
*Killing the Shipmaster (Halo: CE, T&R level)
*Taking a few Zealots alone (Those who say ten to twelve at once are exhadurating)
*Killing a room full of Brute's single handedly (Uprising)
The catch is, for all we know, Jorge could have done the same thing if given the opportunity, which is why I say this argument is pointless.
3. Strength. Spartans can lift 3X their weight, and then twice that with Mjolnir. John = 390 pounds, Jorge = 320. With Mjolnir, John can lift 2340 pounds, and Jorge can lift 1920. That gives John a strength advantage. Keep in mind that pure physical strength does not by any means determine the outcome of a fight, but it is something to consider.
On the other hand, John does not exactly have such a good track record when it comes to 1v1's. He struggled against an Elite in FOR, while Kelly and Fred seem to dispatch multiple without any trouble (One can argue that he was in space, and facing an Elite for the first time). John also struggled with a Brute, while Cal wiped the floor with a Brute Chieftain in H2H.
I don't think the information we have on Jorge is enough to conclude this debate.
