| Question about UNSC equipment | |
| Posted By: Draganos | Date: 6/12/07 3:19 p.m. |

From all the books in the Halo series, I have read them all. The main underlying factor in the Covenant's dominance has been their technological superiority over humans. Plasma vs. Ballisitcs such as the archer missles and the MAC guns. In ground engagements, all humans have had are explosive materials such as rockets, and your average bullet. But now, in Halo 3... we find equipment that doesn't quite match up with the story so far. Bubble Sheild - as far as i can see - this is UNSC stuff. MC uses it on Earth and it looks like it is constructed by humans. The problem I find here is that - the UNSC ships have no sheilds. The Covenant does. So why does infantry have shields, but humans do not?? Spartan Laser - Where did this come from? It's not plasma... and its not explosive... its a laser. Like again - I just dont see where this comes from. Why don't UNSC ships use similar technology other than the largely ineffective archer missles?? Like the time between Halo 1 through 3 is very short ... no more than a few months. I find it hard to believe that the UNSC could make these advancements so fast. From a gameplay point of view, I love it. But from the story standpoint - I am just confused. Can anyone explain where this eqiupment comes from and why its not used to combat the Covies in space??
