I have still yet to understand how the hell the UNSC was able to unlock forerunner tech in a mere two months without halsey or cortana.
From what i remember it took Halsey more than 20 years to put shields on Mjolnir by reverse engineering jackal shields.
Yet the UNSC can reverse engineer Forerunner technology (which Halsey is the expect and doesn't know much) without halsey,cortana, or even Anders in under 2 months?
So it took over 20 years to understand mere covenant shields with halsey and a wartime economy. Yet two months to understand AND apply forerunner slipspace mechanics to a UNSC ship without halsey and with a "Failing" economy?
You have to be completely stupid to say that nothing is wrong with that. The UNSC doesn't even know how exactly how covenant weaponry works. So how can they jump to understanding forerunner slipspace 3 months after the war?
Karen clearly F***ed up with that. Along with the idea of the UNSC and elites going to war withing the next 30 years or so. Because ONI is obviously going to exterminate the elites from what glasslands has going.
Now i fully understand why Starwars and Gears fans dislike her.
I agree with you that this is the most major concern of the story which superseded the problem of Halsey's characterization.
There must be a reason why, did unlocking the jackel shield which is based on forerunner tech helped them unlock the door to forerunner tech. Did it make the scientist everywhere to recheck their research and did they try to explain problems with the help of A.I.s.
Remember that before einstein no one understood anything that was happening based on his theories.The moment he found an explanation all hell broke loose they rechecked their data redid everything and moved forward at an increasing rate. Remember that whenever you hit a new technological barrier like the idea of E=mcsquare, everyone stops and tries to understand why does the current info observe go against everything they believe.
The moment you discover something like E=mcsquare(also the equation is quite longer this is based on a stationary object.) The flood doors open and everyone tries to understand it and once everyones up to speed the research done is easier to do. Which is why the nuclear reaction progress has moved so fast. That barrier of confusion from Newtons law proved that there was something going against his law. And discovery hit a standstill or a slowpoint.
The moment Einstein proved and published his theory all the other theory were tested on this and they understood it was right and soon technologies moved at a really high speed that now we can make technologies that are beyond imagination.
Discovering something new is harder but using that knowledge to create new things is easier. What Halsey did was what Einstein did, was to discover a reason why then use this research as now people don't need to ask why but how to use it in other fields.
Remember Newtons Law was not usefull for science in the 1900,s as it was hampering it, and when einstein brought his theory forward it destroyed Newtons law, and yes Newtons law is not true, as it is only true to the extent of normal things we do everyday. Einstein theory brought a wave of ideas that revolutionized our world forward. Our world is moving fast but when it starts slowing down because we have a problem we will need a discovery like the one Halsey did for the next flood door of knowledge to open.
