I just cant stand how Palmer hates Hasley. I mean come on she made the spartans.


She can only go off of what she's been told, and Palmer's been told she kidnapped children and forced them to be Spartans. The Spartans may be badass, but that doesn't change the fact that kidnapping and conscripting children into the military is kind of a dick move.


If it were not for halsey Palmer probably wouldnt be a spartan. She should know this and show some respect. Right?
While in a way yes, but Halsey was still turning children into emotionless war machines.

Which ONI funded. Besides the S-III project was by far worse than the S-II project yet we don't see Ackerson being arrested.

Palmer's just pissed that she's not an Ultramarine and considering suicide over the fact.

I'd say that the device retrieved by crimson contains the librarians state on requiem or at the least can lead the UNSC to her location.[/quote]

Oh now wouldn't that just be convenient? I'm sure that will be the case, just like the rest of the plot where everything important is conveniently located within jogging distance of each other.[/quote]
It's not as convenient as the covenant designing their shield defenses in such a way the console is outside the shield and doesn't required anything like a password. Or at the least a confirmation button. The way it's designed a falling rock could deactivate their defenses.


If you're talking about the Vahalla level, that was a Forerunner station with an activation switch that can desolve at the will of the station's operators.

I was on about the general shield defenses in the game where they "hid" the generators outside of it's protective field. Also in spops when you rescue the scientists and the shield stopping you is protected by 2 elites.


A way in is needed somehow. If the generators were hidden on the inside, whatever new way inside was available would also be equally "conveniant." If characters were perfectly logical 100% of the time, most stories would either get no where or be finished in 10 minutes. Especially so for videogames.

And that scientist was protected by at least 4 Elites, and a small army of Grunts and Jackals. On Heroic anyway.

That's because Ackerson is dead.

Probably because he had his head lopped off, no point arresting a body.

ONI funded it yes, yet Halsey was arrested not for doing the Spartan program, but for squandering funds for an unauthorized project, the clones of the children, which cost billions of credits. It was all for legal reasons; ONI merely uses her work in the Spartan program as a smear tactic. Political backstabbing is second nature to ONI.

And Ackerson's dead, tortured to death by the Covenant.

<(-_-)> Teh mokey is not amused

Is anyone else concerned about Roland's attitude in episode 4? It really seems to me like he's beginning to show signs of rampancy.

  • 11.27.2012 1:12 PM PDT

There's no way to get back experiences you missed.
So start right now today and risk furiousness for bliss.

Sarah Palmer is too cocky and it bothers me. Spartans shouldn't act like that, especially commanders.

He died? I really need to get around to readig the Kilo-Five trilogy, I wasn't aware of his death.
Although parangosky allowed the S-III project to happen as well yet she wants to crucify Halsey i've heard. ONI needs to seriously take a chill on the backstabbing.

Well Spartan 4's are pretty much trained from adults (not children) so they've already built up a personality.

Nah, he's fine. I'm pretty sure an AI can really do whatever they want, Roland just wanted to have a little fun.

This actually makes sense. It's unprofessional, but plausible.

The cake is a pie

What's with all the 80's nerd jokes? I bet at the end the spartans are going to be like

"Out of our way, eggheads"

and shoot the crap out of all life's problems. It'll be worse than Mass Effect's "I Hate Politicians" agenda.

Questions lead to learning, learning leads to kowledge, knowledge leads to understanding, understanding leads to peace.

Was anyone else completely caught off guard by Roland's show of excitement in this weeks episode? I found it pretty hilarious.

He died in a comic book years ago, not Kilo-Five.

And ONI's primary goal with Halsey is to keep her under house arrest for honest legal reasons, but they broadcast the whole child-killer thing to keep her from gaining supporters and sympathy. Halsey is dangerous, as smart as she is, so the less sympathizers, the better.

Parangosky openly admits she's going to hell right with Halsey for the things she's let happen, particuarly the Spartan program. I don't think either of them question their effectiveness, hence the SIII's, and really Parangosky has no moral beef with Halsey. It's all legal and political, Parangosky only brings up the moral black hole of the Spartan program to make a point about her motives, why she made the clones.

Yeah, I love the contrast between him and Palmer. I hope they bring him into it more.
