In Response To: Re: Arguing with video game logic... (Gravemind) : And waste a lot of time they didn't have. One-shot guaranteed kill from long : range vs. having troops take several hours driving from Crow's Nest to : Voi, fight through Covie troops and armor and possibly failing to : accomplish their objective. Even if it was necessary for the frigates to : save all their ammo, they could've spared a couple out of the 30 or so : Longswords that participated in the assault (well, they did send one, but : it failed because the idiot pilot basically flew right up to it without : firing anything instead of, I don't know, flying well enough above the gun : and then dropping a bomb on it). IMO, if saving fleet resources was the : reason for sending ground troops, it was a big gamble considering how time : was of the essence. Of course, their weapons were ultimately useless : against the dreadnaught, so saving ammo didn't matter, but fortunately, : the Forerunner structure was just a big Stargate and not the Ark : activating the rings. : Of course, what I'd like to know is what happened to the Covenant ship that : Arbiter, Johson, & Miranda arrived to Earth in. It could've taken : point in the assault and just glassed the factory complex. Either it was : destroyed before the start of the game but never mentioned in-game, or it : was just forgotten during the writing process. Whatever happened in between Chief's leaving of Earth Halo 2 and his return in 3 will be answered in ODST. Serious. Just wait a few weeks. Damn those French.
