Subject: New Spartans How to intro. them

If they added new spartans how would they introduce them into the game without confusing the average Halo fan that hasn't read the books. I was thinking through the movie but that probably wont come out in time, also if they did, (which i really hope they do), how do you keep the MC being the best spartan, I was thinking maybe give him back Cortana? Yea i really want to discuss this so post away!

I still don't want to see new Spartans. This be the Chief's game, not theirs.

evil fluffy have you read the books if not then go out and read them. Then tell me that you dont want to see new spartans

Not even if they were just in cutscenes, i mean i really want to see them in the game since they work really well together (since they're basically family) and the book made their missions together sound so kick @$$

I did. But still, not everyone else has. Don't you think that after hearing the Chief is the last Spartan for the past two games they'd be WTFed to see more. And besides, a flashback would be lame. I just want them to finish the fight, not bring in a bunch of new characters.

This pole got a little off topic so to stay on topic i think they'll introduce them through something ,not quite sure what, seperate from the game and MC will get cortana back

They made the Master Chief seem like too much of a one man team to bring in the other Spartans now.

They fit in while you read the books because we see how the Chief misses fighting along side of them but in the game, you arn't even hinted at the fact that there are other Spartans.

Any ways, the Spartans would be stupid in Halo. They would be a bunch of dressed up Marines with *maybe* smarter AI or slightly different AI.

ill say i want to bring in other spartans, even though im worried about how theyll do it, because it will bring in the team control gameplay element like in Star Wars Republic Commando, and Ghost Recon.

Thats how theyll keep chief #1 and the boss. He tells the others what to do and can use them for cover when he wants to take the lead. Id accept that type of gameplay

well, considering the well thought out, albeit, empty post above, I still think it would be great to see the other Spartans, especially if we wanna see Chief as something other than a man/machine who cant die. I'd like to see a more human side of him, and what better way to do it than prove that even he needs help sometimes. I dont know, I just really think they should be included because they are a huge part of Chief's past, so they should be part of his future as well.

I think it would be cool if they introduced them by having the chief under fire and MC, sarge, and keyes' daughter are in a jam and they say "How the hell are we gonna finish this fight!" then master chief in his super cool voice says "Call in the spartans!"

Bungie said ( sorry i dont have the link) that th books have nothing to do with their future project. they are pure fan fic based on halo1 & 2. i read all 3 of em, they are good, but you will never never see kelly or Dr. Halsey in halo3! period.
