I have to say N2 (Nano-suit 2) over MJOLNIR. If you compare the two, you'll see even a Nano-suit 1 would defeat a Spartan II (though it would be an uber-close fight).
Armour: The MJOLNIR armour is made of titanium-A, a hyper-dense, yet light weight alloy designed to resist 2000 degree celsius and massive amounts of force (aprox. 1500 newtons of force) as well as shields comprised of a plasma window, with a wall of lasers underneath, then electron aligned carbon fiber nanotubes
N2 is comprised of three layers. One is a skin tight suit of carbon fiber nano tubes (the strongest element known to man and the primary strength of Halos energy shields)and bullet resistant, shock absorbant gel that also controls the users body temprature. After this comes a layer of Coltan-Titabnium, a modified titanium alloy thats stronger, yet lighter than standred titanium. Coltan titanium is also infused with nano-machines which repair it and and is abosbant of radiation, thus protecting the user from all but the heaviest of radiological attacks.
The exterior of the suit is comprised of self repairing, semi-organic Carbon fiber nanotubes, reinforced with Coltan-titanium and carbo-platinum (A Carbon-fiber nano-tube reinforced, nano machine enhanced, self repairing platinum alloy) The suit is enhanced by Armour mode, which re-directs energy to the suits outer armor, tightening the nano-tubes and providing aditional bullet deflection and protection, as well as increasing energy to life-support and suit-repair functions. The suit is also more resistant to super-heated plasma weapons, MJOLNIR is. While Titanium-A and energy sheilds are weak to the 3000 degrees celsuis tempratures of plasma weapons, carbon fiber nano tubes in real life are resistant to nearly 4500 degrees, far more than the plasma based weapons can produce.
Armor winner: Nano-suit 2
Speed: Unfortunatly unbalance for MJOLNIR, as the Nano-suits has an entire suit mode devoted to speed.
While the fastest speed acheived on a regular basis by a Spartan equiped with MJOLNIR is 75 KM/H by Kelly-087 and the fastest speed ever acheived was 105 Km/H by John-117 during the MJOLNIR-MK.V test.
The N2 on the other hand, has a standered sprint speed of 75 KM/H and a top speed (in small 3-5 second bursts) of close 300 KM/H, easily beating MJOLNIR.
In terms of rection time the Spartans are still outmatched. While MCPO Mendez reports that Spartans in MJOLNIR can react at
0.20 millisecinds, the N2 has a twitch reflex/reaction time of 0.08 milliseconds, much faster than the MJLONIR armor.
Winner: Nano-Suit
Strenth: Ah, finally, a real battle!
MJLONIR goes first. Put simply, Spartans are beats. Cyberneticly modefied beasts to be exact. Capable of lifting three times there own body weight with out MJLONIR equiped (aprox. 1000 pounds or 450 KG), this load in MJLONIR is increased by a factor of five. Five thousand pounds. almost two and a half short tons.
Unfoutunatly for longtime Halo fans like myself, N2 is back and better than ever.
While no exact strenth is stated in game or on the Crysis website or the Crysis wikia, the N2 is capable of kicking a 2 ton taxi cab almost 10 feet into the air and twenty feet forward, with enough force to smash an 9 inch thick concrete wall.
Winner:N2
Powerplant: A complicated matter, as the Nano-suit has no powerplant, yet technically has one anyways.
The Mjolnir armor uses an advanced Fusion power-plant, cabable of powering a Scorpion tank runing at full capacity for almost ten years straight, yet small enough to fit in the palm of a Spartan (aprox. six by six inchs in size), the only known atachment to activly cause the plant to near overload when used too long is armour lock, which can only be used for fifteen seconds before fusion power plant overload.
The plant can also power the suit for close to fifteen years of continiuse use.
The N2 activly collects energy on the other hand, and is pretty good at it too. cabable of collecting energy from thermal (heat in the air, sunlight, the operators body heat), radiological (the small amount of radiation that always surrounds us, radiation souces like powerplans and items containing akaline metals) carbon (rtting bodys and other decomposing organisms, the users dying skin tissues and hair and feces are also broken down into carbon and converted ito energy) and kinetic (the users movement), as well as the bio-electricty of the user and other living beings around him/her. However, the suit energy is quickly drained by continuse strenous activity though in canon it has less energy drain than that seen in games). The MJLONIR fusion plant however is continuse energy all the time
Winner: MJLONIR, though be warned: as the suit consumes radiation, if the spartan gets too close to the user, the suit will consume the energy given off by the spartan's fusion plant, allowing the N2 user to have unlimited energy
Visor: MJOLNIR has a highly advanced HMD (Head Mounted Display) , as well as thermal, night vision and five times optical zoom and a hardened uplink capable of intercepting nearly any radio bbased signal, allowing for unprecedented communications.
The MJOLNIR armor system can also protect the user from breathing in objects as small as 900 nanometers and uses selcetive hearing "a pin drop in a sandstorm"
The N2 on the otherhand, uses "Nano-vision" a thermal-night vision hybrid that allows for 3D imagry, something no other night-vision unit, even that of MJOLNIR is capable of.
N2 also supports a more advanced HMD and an automatic read out of the suit and users status, as well as a smaller and stronger visor (MJOLNIR is comprised of super-hartdend acrylic glass, while the N2 uses see-through Carbon fiber Nano-tubes).
The N2 also has 60 times zoom and the ability to augument the users eyes using naomachines, allowing them to see in the dark and double the users visual perception. The N2 can also protect against viruses, bacteria and gases as small as 500 nano-meters (which are then broken down into carbon and used to power the suit), as well as allow the user to hear a whispered conversation from almost five hundred feet away and is cabable of intercepting almost 6000 lines of communictaion, far more than MJOLNIR.
Winner:N2
AI: Cortana vs SECOND. Oh, this is gonna be good!
Cortana strikes first, with sentience. far more advanced (according to Halo:Reach, ten times so) then her nearest Smart-AI competitor, Cortana is constantly busy and is a hacker only matched by Forerunner AI, SECOND and EDI from Mass Effect 2. Funny, sexy and smart, Cortana is always usefull to have around (sorry, i couldn't much info on her tech).
SECOND is a non-sentient AI implanted in an N2 users head when they first aquire the suit. This AI latter become sentient due to its absorbtion of the DNA of former operative Prophet. SECOND is cabable of running a 1.5 BIPS (twenty time faster than the largest and most powerful super-computer today). Being inplanted in the users head, SECOND can also control hormone levels in the users head, make an N2 operator incabable of feeling fear, pain or failure, as well as operate as a suplimentry nervous system incase the user's is damaged, making the user invulnerable parylisis and even direct barin tramua.
Winner: unknown, insefficient data on the part of Cortana
Overall winner: Nanosuit 2
I always have this saved.
Funny how this game comes out after halo and tries to make their suit out of a different material and makes it "better" to avoid copyright infringement. The two games are scary similar. Especially the multiplayer. If you played Crysis 2 multiplayer it has armor abilities just like Halo, they are just not called Armour Abilities. Honestly, I say MJOLNIR is better because of 3 reasons:
Cooler looking
Original
And amplifies your own personal abilities ten fold.
Funny how Halo comes out after Aliens and tries to make their stuff better by using other names to avoid copyright infringement. Both the movie and the game are scary similar, especially the humans, if you watched Aliens it has a sergeant just like Johnson except he is not called like that.
Funny how your words can be used against the things you defend isn't it?
Also:
-Nanosuit amplifies the user's abilities more than tenfold
-It's original too
-It can be worn by anybody
-MJOLNIR does not utilize a "laser wall."
-The shields are not plasma windows, as objects can come in contact with them and not be immediately vaporized.
-1500 Newtons is not a 'massive amount of force,' it's equal to the weight of a ~340 pound object.
-Carbon nanotubes are not an element.
-Carbon nanotubes have nothing to do with MJOLNIR's energy shields.
-The Coltan-titanium is not a layer, it's just the shiny skeletal bits you see at joints.
-Regardless of what it's made of [oh, these magical handwavium NANOTUBES!!!!!] MJOLNIR has an extra layer of protection in the form of energy shielding, and can withstand fire from a 12.7 LAAG for significantly longer than an armor-moded N2 can take HMG fire. The HMG fires .50 BMG, which is the exact same size as a 12.7mm shell. Therefore they have the same firepower, and the LAAG in Halo clearly fires much, much faster.
-In gameplay, MJOLNIR can flip tanks, so the N2's taxicab trick has nothing on it.
-Your assertion that the Nanosuit can burst-sprint at 300 kph is hilariously untrue.
-N2's energy reserves are amusingly tiny, and not just in-game, the book Crysis: Legion depicts it as having an extremely limited energy reserve.
-The N2 does not amplify strength tenfold. The strength amplification is only active in Strength, and to a lesser extent, Speed modes. MJOLNIR uses a a reactive crystal layer to amplify strength at all times, without using any power.
