Subject: Halo Violates The Laws of Physics

I'm a stubborn guy. I love to argue my opinion, but unlike others, I'll try to see your side of the problem. I'm a triathlete, with a very heavy empephis on the swimming bit. Also, don't hate on the ~Quinton~ at the end of my posts. Why are you still reading this? #creeper #hashtagcashmoney for hashtaging on Bungie.net

That has nothing to do with the laws of physics...


As I was reading this I was laughing a little bit due to the fact that this doesn't have to do with physics. It has everything to do with chemistry.

Some one should find the chemical compound of gun powder and balance it.

i am entertained by the shortsightedness of those in this thread it has to do with chemistry and physics, also several posters on this thread have not even read the replies before them so they view as rambling clones. guns can fire due to the fact there is a chemical mixed with the oxygen and sulfur which contains oxygen and when the hammer strikes the primer it causes the compounds to mix and give the force necessary for the slug to travel out of the chamber at high speeds. if you want a argument of halo defying laws of reality research before you open your mouth.

I just finished reading The Cole Protocol (Quite addictive) and one part stood out to me. The part where Captain Keyes and the ODSTs jump into outer space and use their battle rifles to distance themselves from the ship. The author tried to be intelligent and use Newton's Third Law of Physics to support this, however, when one thinks about it, guns would not even work in space at all because there is no atmosphere.

Discuss.

Guns fire normally in the vaccum of space, and will propel objects away at an average force of 14psi.

And no, don't be scared, I searched that. :)

Why do spartans float?

No.

Physics violates the laws of Halo. But seriously, your problem is that the guns should not fire? I'm no scientist by any means, but they're obviously contained or something, with an independent oxygen supply. It's a universe where space-combat is a reality; do you really think their weapons wouldn't be able to fire in space?

NOBLE 6 FELL DOWNWARD IN SPACE.

Am I supposed to write something funny here?

NOBLE 6 FELL DOWNWARD IN SPACE.

Etc.

He fell towards the object with largest mass...

He had not enough speed to stay in orbit/fly into space, he fell down to the planet.

How does this violate the laws of physics?

  • 04.23.2012 4:00 AM PDT

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

Halo also violates the law of non-fiction.

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

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

This makes no sense, so it must be right.

Firstly: Guns can fire in a vacuum.

Secondly: If they didn't, Halo is a science fiction game. Future Science... get over it.
