Re: Halo 4, dynamic HUD

In Response To: Re: Halo 4, dynamic HUD (scarab)


: I really hope not. We either get: Spartans that are as crap as marines
: Noble team

: Neither option appeals.

: Do we never learn the lessons of the past? Why would anyone want Spartan
: allies after playing Reach?

What if they're done better than our Reach companions were? You can't necessarily assume that they'll behave exactly as the S-III's in Reach did.

As I understand it, the ReachS-III's were intentionally made sort of... well, stupid (the fired slowly, didn't take cover, etc.) to try to keep them from being over-powered. And the concern about them being over-powered came from the fact that they couldn't die.

What if the S-IV's in Halo 4 are considered more.... expendable than Reach's S-III's, and are allowed to die? Or at least get "knocked out" the way the Arbiter did in Halo 3? They could be a little more effective and believable in combat. I see them potentially being like the Elite companions in Halo 2 and 3, which I liked quite a lot.
