In Response To: Re: Halo [R]Evolved - Keyes (Impervium) : 1.) The sailor bit, where Keyes call out to the Chief. I think : "Soldier" should be kept, only because the vast majority of : people playing the game don't know the Master Chief is Navy. He's a giant : cyborg in powered armor blasting through legions of aliens, not something : people usually identify sailors as (I know for me, I think of the blokes : with white hats and blue collars hoistin' sails :P). Calling him a sailor : would be narmy at best for the masses, flow-breaking at worst. Even though : it IS correct, and even knowing Keyes would say sailor, I think we, the : hard core crowd, should bite the bullet and keep the line untouched. The : last thing we want is for a line to break the immersion and leave people : going "Huh? Sailor?" Even in formal situations (i.e. when PERSEC/OPSEC is in order), U.S. Navy SEALs, Naval aviators, Navy Seabees, etc. are referred to as "sailors". For the person who is buying a 10-year anniversary edition of Halo: Combat Evolved, they should have picked up by now that Halo generally follows the Navy and Marine Corps, not the Army.
