Goat was famous. Irie was infamous. Gh0st was FaMaS.

Typical Waypoint post.
no it's "its got to go" you wouldn't say the "it is got to go" would you?

Where in the holy mother of hell did the Spartan II's get jetpacks? Serious question. If it was there from the beginning, then why the hell did the Chief just crash land in the jungle in Halo 3?

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

And also, why do all the Spartans have armor Cortana custom made for Chief?

That Prologue was crap.

  • 12.13.2012 9:37 PM PDT

I doubt a Jet pack is going to be of much use when you're falling from orbit.

Dear tomorrow, Find some sensibility, Respond to emotion.
Dear Politician, Define sagacity,
All chances of survival are beginning to diminish.
Comedy is no excuse for our own blasphemies.
Mass media, Mass pessimism, Mass Denial.
My television tells me to panic, but I don't think I'll listen.
The apathetic force us to persevere, with their backwards priorities.

I like how your sub box is full of science and political videos but your recommendations are full of anime girls kissing each other.

Just Zoid being Zoid ^_^

I liked the prologue, just the artist were lazy.

  • 12.13.2012 9:37 PM PDT

If my memory serves me right, Chief was wearing the same set of armor from Halo 2 to the end of Halo 3. Then Cortana upgraded his armor while he was in cryo.

Its a re-entery pack similar to what noble 6 had on his back when they boarded the covenant ship.

It worked for those Spartans in the prologue.

Ahh it's you. Been a while hasn't it? We WILL finish this.


Just you wait.

That is what I was wondering. Why couldnt have 343 just let them drop in with drop pods. And have them wear mark 5 armor and the elites their original armor not storm armor.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Signatures are for little kids.

It's a storyline written by writers who obviously couldn't make a living writing novels or screenplays.

Of course it sucks.

  • 12.13.2012 9:41 PM PDT

Major props to my hommie Sheeef. He made Recon possible for me. Long time recovering emails and passwords. And it was his. lol.

343 happened
This.

OP: I agree too. It was the first thing that popped into my head, along with his armor change, when seeing it the first time.
Doesn't make sense. So apparently when everyone goes into cryo, you get upgrades. Just takes a few years though... rrriiiiiiggghhttt.

  • 12.13.2012 9:42 PM PDT

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

If I would have said this the entire thread would turn into a -blam!- storm. I agree. Just wait antonio, now you've joined me in awakening the beast. Though it would have been Mark IV I believe if they really wanted to stay true to canon, not Mark V.

Bones of my enemies.

Are people really still raging over the whole magical jetpack thing? Jesus people.


The Spartan II's always had thrusters. Read the damn books you lazy bastard.

  • 12.13.2012 9:42 PM PDT

Ignore my gamertag. It's actually Dragonzzilla.

The thruster packs were always there but they were for short bursts.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

How did Chief upgrade to spartan IV armor? Magic.

  • 12.13.2012 9:44 PM PDT

Well of course it worked for them, it didn't advance the story when they were using it.

I also just realized that the Spartan IIs seem to be wearing Mk VII or whatever the hell it is now.

I'm going to quote myself and slam my face into my desk as a result of my rage caused by the idiots in this thread.

The fact you have to direct people to the books (or other parts of the Halo universe external to the game(s)) only serves to reinforce how badly told the story was.

How the hell was anybody supposed to know this? Read the books? How about making these abilities clear in the games. You know, the one that people who aren't massive halophiles buy?
