i know some of u guys are gonna flame me fer dissing marines, but face face it, the only reason why marines are there is so that the covenant have more targets to shoot at, so they dont concentrate on you. the mc is a one man army

ok, what do you want us to say... This isnt true bec they do support the MC, they just arent that smart... Im sure in HALO 2, infact im 100% positive that they will be one of the main concerns for bungie and US... It will rock with the marines driving hogs... CANT WAIT

ya somewhat... they dont do so good and help you, u really are a 1 man army.

but the major reason is not as the storyline in the game, its the AI. The AI back when HALO was made... now this is like what 3, 4 yrs back or more? was very hard to do... you never see in Halo a convenant dude helping another one.. because of the AI. In HALO 2 however the AI is a much easier task and I already know that the convenant will now interact with each other and call reinforcements go up in formations, blah blah, so the marines will do even more!

so is supposed to work? i mean, on cartographer, when you go to the shafted part, and u go up the slopey thing, and theres that sleeping grunt up there, and i kill him and when the grunt walks around the corner, he just keeps on walking, without noticing his little budies lying in a pool of his own blood

and i love how the grunts walk. it looks like their limping

there is ONE thing good about marines...
their armor is a hell of a lot easier to model into a replica than that of the mc. their helmets are cool, but the faces need some work for Halo 2

armed&triggerhappy · Post by **armed&triggerhappy** » Thu Sep 23, 2004 8:56 pm

whats really great is when their body is slumped over something and their face is stretched out like some freaky ghost guy. always get a laugh outta that

Spartan Foods · Post by **Spartan Foods** » Thu Sep 23, 2004 9:35 pm

I've never seen that... the best also is to stick plasmas on marines... has anyone tried a plasma on cpt. keyes in POA?

Imagine kpt keyes..." AGhhhh Aghhh, get It Off, GET IT OFF, GET IT OFFFF!!! AGHHHHHHHHHH!!"

The thing with marines is that they are helpful, but aren't that smart.I was playing the level halo and a marine tried to get by me while I was on a one way bridge, but he ended up walking off the bridge.
