Still using a pump-action shotgun over 500 years in the future I see.

omg not realistic stop game production plz

How did we seriously not ask this question:

Is the FUD completely empty at the end of Halo 3's last level? It doesn't seem (in the Legendary ending) that there was anyone else on board, yet why would a UNSC frigate be completely desolate?

Exactly! I was thinking about this a few days ago. At the beggining of the mission Cortana, Johnson says over the com, "Chief, I'll round up our survivors, fall back to the Dawn." Why then were there no other UNSC forces on the Frigate by the end, when Johnson bring FUD to Installation O4B to help light it. just seems kindka weird.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

*facepalm*

All the UNSC personnel was evacuated to The Shadow of Intent in order to leave only the Dawn behind for The Chief and Arbiter to escape the detonation of the Halo ring. Since that involved a high risk of the crew aboard dying in the escape, it made sense to have nobody else on.

Wait weren't all the reaming soldiers drooped of with chief in the mission the ark. With Johnson staying on The Fud to later land it near the control room to leave on a warthog?

So all the ships systems, including being left floating using anti-grav, AND with the hangar open, was done without crew?

Seems incredibly irresponsible for a whole ship.

Johnson put the club on the controls.

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

A better question would be, why were there only two ATVs, two Warthogs, and a Scorpion tank on board?

Because they already dropped off 2 or 4 scorpions, a bunch of warthogs, pelicans, hornets, and mongooses already. You know, during the The Ark, The Covenant, whatever down time there was in between. Plus, it's just a frigate, it's not like the PoA.

They'd probably been used up in previous conflicts before hand.

I remember when I couldn't find myself Then my mom got a job and she payed for a P.I.

An Even Better Question Would Be. Why did the FUD not have Icecream Vending Machines. Honestly, Why Not?

When all hope seems lost, and the ground is littered with the bodies of our fallen comrades, wait for the thunderous crash of my rifle, and I shall lead us to salvation.

This. So many times, this.

If you're passionate about the thing you're talking about, I'll always lend an ear.

An even better question would be why is the Arbitar on the control part of the UNSC vessel with MC being on the complete opposite side of the ship?

Why weren't they on the same part of the ship together, a frigate is massive and MC just let Arbitor make his own way to the controls without directions?

Why didn't MC just leave the Hanger with Arbitor? would have avoided the whole " oh -blam!- the hanger doors are open and we're in space".

Why didn't cortana close the hanger doors, was she just that busy flying the ship?

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

I believe it was stated that originally you were suppose to have another encounter with the gravemind Hence why MC was still in the cargo hold while the arbiter went up. I believe it was said but i don't recall where.


I think the doors weren't closed so you could see the Arks Destruction.
