The goal of a warrior is to one day lay down the sword and carry fortune upon the sheild.to defend those who can not defend themselves.Honor,respect and love.

Personally I can't believe I'm answering this question. The Spartan armor is an exoskeleton/EVA suit designed as a complete environment containment unit. This means in operate in all environments (vacuum/pressure and extreme environments) as far as falling from space to the earth, all Spartans are biologically augmented to with stand extreme which would turn ordinary human to mush. We can be pretty sure the same hold true for Spartan 3. This means that the Spartan can withstand both the physical and biological effect of terminal velocity breaking thruster pack on him (approximately 1225 km/h) Remember the thrusters have to lift and carry 1 ton of weight (average Spartan) so it safe to think the thruster pack can stop or at least slow any terminal velocity impact landing.

Master Chief survived the fall with a part of the Forerunner Dreadnought, you can see it in the very 1st and 2nd level of the game right from the beginning (or end of the cutscene. Uh yeah, a white thing that looks like fallen from the sky? That´s MC "re-entry device".

Noble 6 on the other hand, used a Re-entry pack. According to the wiki description:

"The reentry pack is integrated into the YSS-1000, hooking onto the pilot's back as soon as they enter".

If you paid attention to the wiki posts that users linked, you would know.

1. I wasn't talking to you
2. Just because random people can contribute to wiki that doesn't actually mean it's the truth

Master Chief is Master Chief though


well that was a rather stupid answer. Noble Six is just as good as Master Chief, nothing more is special about Master Chief other than his own personal skill. Cortana says so at the beginning of Halo 3.

Not really. 6 is a Spartan III, Chief is a Spartan II.

I <3 Halo:Reach - amazingly fun and best campaign + amazing Soundtrack
I <3 Halo 3:ODST - best soundtrack + Firefight + Coastal Highway and Mombassa Streets, amazingly unique campaign.
I <3 Halo 3 - best multiplayer levels + Forge + best Custom Games + soundtrack
I <3 Halo 2 - amazing huge fun campaign + soundtrack + Fun multiplayer
I <3 Halo: CE - started it all

This thread is filled with idiots. This is exactly why people didn't olike the campaign, because they are too stupid to know anything about Halo. Masterchief fell from space, and hwo did he live? His armorlocked, and the "jell layer took most of the impact". Same thing happened to six, and he had a re-entry pack on.

WAZAAM!!!
herp derp

Armor lock, not the one from MP. Each Spartan has an armor lock feature like in Tip of The Spear when the falcon crashes, Geroge yells lock your armor spartan. This is how spartans can survive large falls, given the time to charge up the armors capabilities

A jet pack plus a parachute maybe? that would dramatically slow your fall rate to a survivable speed.

Assassin's Creed is a perfect example that has to explain every single detail to you so your brain doesn't have to do the work. There's a part in that game where I facepalmed hard, Ezio says "Luckily that platform came loose, it will help me if I fall".



I hated hearing that...SO MUCH!

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

Considering the retarded...was it 6 kilometer fall Chief went through at the beginning of Halo 3? Six wasn't falling as fast as the Dreadnaught and he had the apparently magical re-entry pack.

There you go, now quit finding details to complain about.

Edit: ah, nope, it was only two kilometers. Damn MJOLNIR sucks.

If I could change a few things in Reach, it would be....

*Get rid of yoinking and medal ( yoinking is retarded )
*Force Bungie to work again and get rid of 343's existence
* A few other things

Yeah, let's not, because MC is infinitely better.


Did I seriously just read that?

idk

Do you know how to read?


Evidently, but the words I just saw don't form a sentence that makes any logical sense whatsoever.

OMG stop saying that MC used "AL"!!1!!

Master Chief survived the fall by ripping apart a small section of the Dreadnought. You can see it in the very beginning of the playable part of Sierra 117.

so if noble 6 could survive that, why couldnt jorge survive the fall or leap out of it after he pushed the button on the bomb...and with the engines shot out, why couldnt they just normal blow it up? and what happened to june???? so many unanswered questions????

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.
