It's a loose end for Bungie to leave the other Spartans hanging in the middle of no where.

I want Linda-058's sniper rifle. NOW!

The Earth is being destroyed theres no way Master Chief can do it alone.And for those guys who think another spartan would steal the spotlight think about it The Arbitor came in on Halo 2 did that take the spotlight no it just gave the elites some humanity

He actually had way too many levels..he should only have 2 or 3 in halo 3..

The other Spartans should have maybe 7-8 to figure out what Ackerson is doing? Making Clones? Overseeing the training of the Spartan-IIIs?

John should get the rest.

65% Master Chief
20% Arbiter
15% Other Spartans

If you read the Halo books( which u should if ur a halo fan) in the book The first strike there r other spartans that excaped Reach and in Metropolis the Marine says" When i called for reinforcements I didnt think theyd send a spartan so if Bungie is true to there own story line they will have other spartans in Halo 3


If I made any grammer mistakes its because i had little time to write this.


That doesn't mean anything! These soldiers do not know John on any personal level, so to these random soldiers a human in a mjonlir suit is merely a "spartan," or as they said in Halo a "Mark V."

They aren't going to randomly say out of the blue - "Whoa!! I never thought they would send us John 117! The last Spartan alive!!" Cause they don't know anything about "Spartans," other than the fact they're freaks that blow -blam!- up.

It's not like "random" soldiers are kept up to date on Halsey and the survival of the rest of the Spartans.

LOL @ SS_Zag

Dude the first comment you made ending with 4)Yeah, Id make out with Kelly, nearly made me fall out of my chair laughing... I really wasnt expecting that.

I think that there will be other Spartans. I think the reason the books compliment the games, is because they do. The final book made it quite clear there are I think 5 other spartans still around.

The game will highly dissapoint me if it doesnt follow the idea made from the books. If anything, you think Micro/Bungie would be trying to encourage people to read the books (One for money, and two to make the story that much more real).

There was actually nine alive including James, who was MIA near Reach's defenses.


Kinda creepy, eh? ODST's can't drop into an atmosphere..though we know that a Spartan can in his or her MJOLNIR armor.

It also makes you think..since bungie cut off a few levels that were to take place after you killed Tartarus, and you would play as Chief on Earth..

Discuss the topic here.

Listen all of you non-believers! Spartans can be explained in a series of flashbacks! [echo]flashbacks....[/echo]. And Halo 3 is most likely going to be longer than Halo 2. The game will probably be big enough to fit in some flashback levels.

Kelly. There are actually 9 that can still be alive, and this might be them in this picture.

Discuss: Here


You dont know that for sure. Its just a painting. Its like saying the picture with the MC in the desert is going to be in H2.

But Im not saying your wrong....Or right, just that its just a drawing (e.g Arbiter behind the MC, also found on this site)

You need to remember that Bungie approves all of the illustrations..the illustrations came out with Halo 2's full spectrum ni mind, but then much of the levels were cut off and shortened (did you know that we were going to see the Ark in the 9th level?

...Maybe the concept art was of the Ark in Halo 3, and the trailer scene (1/3 through the game) is on th 9th level..

..But we were going to have a few MC levels after the last Arbuter one, to add more closure..but..time constraints got rid of that..

There was also going to be a level when we got back to Earth..so..that could be what was going to happen after MC got off Truth's ship, and into a Spacestation, and regrouped?

There is a lot of evidence that points that BUNGIE was rushed and cut the last level/cinematic (Ark_09).

But on topic. Everyone on these forums was speculating that the SPARTANs were going to be in Halo 2 but never ended up in the game. What Im saying is that if the SPARTANs aren't even mentioned in the Halo 2 its because there either somewhere else or some other plot twist came along. If anything they will be in the books.

They could've been at Coral during the events of Halo 2 (or just defending ground-side Earth)..

Based on the millions of other threads that have had this same topic, i do believe that Spartans will be shown in Halo 3. More of in a cutscene than in-game.

Something along those lines. There is a month(if I remember correctly) difference between the end of First Strike and the beginning of Halo 2. Im assuming thats when that SPARTAN tests out the Mark VI armour. But we dont know what happens between that gap period.

Your quote doesn't mean anything, he's a regular class soldier with no access to stuff like that, he most likely wouldn't have known if there were other Spartans.




But...I do believe there should be Spartan's in the third game, only because the Chief will be almost completely on his own through a lot of the missions otherwise, and on a totally guarded Covenant-held planet? It's amazing he made it to the ground,

One of the Bungie frontmen said that in Halo 3, we will finish everything we started in Halo 1. He didn't say however, if we will finish anything we started in the books.

The Public (More specifically the UNSC) doesn't know of any deaths of SPARTANs. They do this for moral support after losing so many battles. Also if I remember right, Spartans never die( the public is lead to believe this ). Meaning the marine that is surprised to see a SPARTAN wouldn't know if there is more or not.

A little more..First strike ended about a week before the Pillar of Autumn entered Halo's system, and Halo 2 started October 20th.

The time warping crystal may still bring Cortana (now the index) and Chief back to Alpha Halo though ;-)

I just looked at the picture in the stratedgie guide. I think that thos e are spartans too. Mainly becayse they're green, not tan or black like the marines and ODSTs.

Also They probably just separated the spartans. For two major reasons:1.To protect other important areas like Washington DC, ect. 2. The UNSC isnt stupid enough to pack their "last hope to save humanity" In one area. Too many risks.

Nope it was Sept. 12th or 13th and the PoA reached Halo's system Sept. 19th.

ddi u know that only 10% of the people who play halo have read the books so i dont htink they would put them in it would be auwqued for other people

To be honest, I've only read "The Fall of Reach" but I don't think it would be awkward if I skipped a couple of books and all of a sudden learn that there are more Spartans.

well that would be cool. but the fans wouldnt know why theres more spartans....unless they made some kind of movie clip at the beginning of the game and more sprtans came from another halo or something.....

yes because of two things, the crystal and also they use Sol reletive time, and the events of first srike took place farther away from Sol than Halo did
