Subject: Playing CEA made me realise how much more fun the marines are

Compared to LOLReach the marines in halo are killing machines.
my favorite momment was on 343 on ledgendary when i had at least 3 marines with me until i was teleported away.
As long as you support your marines they do a damn fine job especially with shotguns.Never the less i had a blast.

Did anyone else have a good time with the marines if you did please tell me.

(BTW im not english so i know that the grammar isn't perfect)

Marines in CE were the best. They slowly went downhill from then until now.

Having a "fuel rod guy" or splazer guy in halo 3 was a lot of fun...having them ride shotgun in a hog or in the back of a goose was a blast

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

Yeah, CEA made me realize how much more fun it is when you're not the only character in the game that can operate a weapon reasonably effectively. I forgot how useful marines used to be. At one point I was running over to save a group of them and they actually managed to clear the group of grunts they were dealing with before I got there. Needless to say they all got happy face stickers.

lolnope.

Dude Halo 1 marines in a group -blam!- -blam!- up. But like only 1 or 2? Man they get pooped on.

Played on Legendary, started up Silent Cartographer, collected two warthogs with my co-op buddy, loaded them up with marines and parked them at the entrance to the SC. They killed two hunters, got most of the rookie Elites, and kept all the majors at bay or weakened them for us.

I was mighty sad to find them dead once we came back up and killed all the camo Elites.

"The cavalry has arrived!" never gets old.

i know what you mean one time my warthog got flipped by a hunter but both marines survived and when i battled one the hunters they threw granades at the other but it got pissed and killed one of them but i turned around and killed him.
after the fight the last marine walked up to the dead marine and said "il make them pay brother" i struck me that i really felt sorry for him and that is what makes a great game.

You need to put an asterisk next to best: they suck at the end of Truth and Reconciliation. They will throw grenades, hit a wall or the ceiling, and end up fragging Keyes more than they will the enemy. Otherwise they are beasts, especially with the sniper rifle.

Johnson + sniper + back seat of scorpion + AoTCR = win.
