So when someone has a limited context of the situation and THEIR remarks are in that context, it's misleading?
Blame Bungie for that weird little dialogue, not me.
"Navy put up a good fight" said Mickey
"Of course they did, it's Earth" said Dutch
"Better late than never" said Romeo, adding onto the fact that the UNSC did well, referring to that their orbital combat was finally pulling through.
But then, "I take it back! Navy got its butt kicked!" said Romeo, commenting on ONE destroyed vessel, way out of the combat zone, having JUST stated that the UNSC was doing well.
That scene was full of horribly corny military conversation that... just sounded odd.
Ruby, in the cut-scene you mention, there is clearly more than one frigate's worth of debris. I don't blame Bungie for anything because I understood the context of the situation.
THIS. Bungie should not have to hold your hand the entire way through the series, use your amazing gift of rational thought to realize something must be wrong with the ODP grid. I mean we can take simple evidence from solely Halo 2 to indicate that all the ODPs were not online. If Regret got through, and he did, then obviously the ODPs did not do their job. In such context, where it is the very small force of Regret, compared to the expected Covenant force, it becomes very obvious that the ODPs did not function as designed meaning they could not possibly be fully operational, unless those who designed them were completely full of themselves and vastly overestimated their abilities... Just accept that Johnson is not omnipotent just because Bungie wrote his line, I mean if everything that every character said was 100% true all of the time then the dialogue would be awfully boring and the story quite frankly would suck.
