well then, there should be a little twist somewhere, that the other spartans are not to be seen in halo 3, but according to the storyline (maybe a novel?) that they WHERE there on earth, or give a good reason why the other spartans where somewhere else (or dead)

tho Tartarus was just as much of a book figure too, i dont think its that hard to make ppl understand that there are more spartans, or a spartan 3 project

Its the lightning from the storm, the flashes would be on the inside. He would also use comms to communicate with them, and they'd need to be close enough to see the flashes.
He didn't :)

yer exactly, you can't argue with an expert from pinewood studios

whoever said that halo 3 is the last halo game, you may be wrong. From he FAQ about the Halo 3 announcement:



Q
Is this the last ever Halo game?

A
It is the conclusion to this story arc.

Every single Spartan is as important as any other. There are no inferior's.

in Halo:CE MC thought (and everyone else) that he was the only one, but now it seems thats wrong, there are more survivers, not every spartan was on reach, and kelly with dr halsey, they cant be forgotten. every spartan is just as dangerous

That's exactly my point. No Saprtan is better than any other Spartan. They all have the same enhancements.

No problem with this, actually is an a great idea, some missions with spartans not marines, who die for a single shot in the arm

What "Books" are people referring too? Are they talking about the three paperback ones? The 3rd book ended at the beginning of Halo 2, so if you're using the three books as if the ending is contained therein...you're way off.

Also, Arbiter and Gravemind are the Master Chief's brothers...it's in the bible.

If you guys read the books, the only people that can make contact using HUD lights are Spartans. In the trailer in between 1:00 and 1:05 there are three flashes of light in the top left of the chiefs visor. They are not lighning flashes because those are in the middle. And after the three HUD flashes the Chief quickly nods. And while all this happens he is looking at the capitol ship. And again another flash on the top very top left of the chiefs visor at around 1:11



Feedback Plz


Ok, so i bit. I thought after reading this, "ok, that's freaking sweet, other spartans"

So i went to look at it again to see what he was talking about. I saw the flashes, and was like "woah, awesome"....until he turned

If you look into his visor, you can see the reflection of the hole in the clouds, and that is where the light is coming from. You see the same kind of light when he is looking at the Ark, in the clouds. Take a look.

They are just using the fact that the other spartans use lights to communicate, and that there are indeed other living spartans.

he doesnt nod...he simply stares at the cruiser hovering over him.


morons.

Read the Halo:CE manual. The chief is the last of his kind and he is the best of the best. Why would you want to play as another spartan who is inferior to his skills? They don't call him the Master Chief for nothing you know.


you're living up to your name (- moose) with garbage like this...

All spartans are equally destructive killing machines.

Actualy if you had read the books(I dont blame you if you didnt, The flood sucked IMO) the only reason why they have those flashes is so they can quietly report in, say yes, or if they really need the chiefs attention. it doesnt specificaly say if you can see it from the outside, but it wouldnt make sense if you could. that would give away the chief's position. I actually think that there is one more spartan, due to the third book (First Strike) in the trilogy. also, to add more suspision, just because the chief's helmet only lets him see 3 blinking lights,doesnt mean that theres only 3 more spartans. that could only be his squad. there could be far more. Im just stating facts and arosing suspisions hear, I realy dont care about the halo 3 story as long as it has fun replayable gameplay. and a great multiplayer too!

Here's a question...why would the lights be on the OUTSIDE of his visor? Let's say he was in a dark place, hiding, with Convenant everywhere...let's say his fellow Spartans send him an acknowledgement wink...the Convenant would know exactly where Master Cheif was because his three acknowledgement lights came on, on the OUTSIDE of his visor...it doesn't make sense.

i noticed the lights but i didnt think about what they meant. I think that it is a very good possibility, but which spartans were communicating with him. In the book i think the girl spartan " lisa" was found frozen in something and they were able to resusitate her maybe one of them was her

An even if it wasnt one of the originals it, they might have come from a new spartan program. There is obviously going to be twist in this game this might be it.

nope not true
the flashes are from the storm the chief has reall time reflection on his visor (really cool) if you look closely you can see the spirals of the storm where the flashes happen
the lights would wink inside the visor you would not be able to see anything from the outside

It's not a storm you don't see wind blowing 120mph do you?

You are all wrong, it's really his seat belt buckle warning!

Because we are all going to need seatbelts when we get our hands on this game. The action probably won't slow down at all. Ever. YES
