Btw,think of it this way. As a lone Spartan look at you are able to accomplish. Now imagine if you had a squad of four Spartans with you. The game would be incredibly easy.
Look at the books, John couldn't take the Unyielding Hierophant over by himself, so he needed more SPARTANs to come with him. They all have different strengths...Linda was Sniping, Grace had their Heavy Weapons, etc. etc.
Who says they need to be together? They could be going for the same objective, or a different one..say, send Linda and Fred and Will to take out a Ship's Shield while you (and maybe Kelly or Johnson) go and plant a nuke in the control room. you wouln't see eachother, but it would remove the need t ogo out of your way for another objective, while keeping you up to date with happenings in Cutscenes.
They could even be on Coral taking the Forerunner Artifact talked about in the Conversations from the Universe...it could be the power source when the Ark on Earth tries to communicate, it gets to the Coral facility, and gets a boost in power so it can make it all the way to the Halos.
That would be an important thing to protect from the Covenant, no? That could also mean the SPARTAN IIIs are being trained there.
