: I have found this conversation very fun. Thanks, guys. :) : However, not to derail anything, but I'm surprised neither of you considered : the Melee Lunge as an example of how gameplay can mess with canon. A : Spartan, Elite or ODST can slide se7en feet across any terrain, at will, : to smack a dude in the mouth? ;) I disregard most weapon damage in MP and campaign from canon. A Marine impaled by just short of an explosive amount of needler fire should still be mortally wounded. Each needle still explodes, just not as violently. If you have your forearm ripped open you're gonna lose a serious amount of blood. Too much campaign and MP is about pacing for interest's sake. If the characters had to actually stop for eating, bathroom breaks, seeing to medical attention, the game would become more realistic and less interesting. Similarly, If Spartan armor is hermetically sealed, why the splashes of blood here and there from glancing hits even? I can see blood shown from Covenant (minus Elite Rangers) and from UNSC minus Spartans.
