343i is the biggest troll of them all...they're making us play an inferior game as inferior soldiers!
Since they wish to continue this cliched herp-derpin' soldier personality I guess that gives the internet free reign to continue making sexist comments, no?
Also, how the fuck do they completely fuck up the covie sniper tower anyway? That shit has been working since H2 and now all of a sudden the grav lift only works from one direction? And can get you lodged under the platform?

I dont see why ODSTs would ever become obsolete. They're pretty much the same as a airborne infantry. They have a useful and well established role that SIVs can do, but only as something more expensive. If marines and spartans are considered separate departments of the UNSC, then ODSTs are still around.
If you ever read into the subtext of Halo 4, you'll find that Halsey's definition of a Spartan is far different than what the Spartan IVs are. While the continuity of the war at Reach has been broken, the raising and development of Spartan IIs are pretty much still there. 343i is trying to do whatever they can to show that Master Chief is not a faceless soldier, but a guy named John. The problem is that Bungie always did this indirectly and 343i is trying to shoe it in through brute force. In campaign, they tried the theme of Spartans=military-hardware/power and in ops they're trying social personality. In the next game or two, through some salvation of MC, they'll wind up with the 'revelation' that slapping on a set of armor doesn't make a soldier and it surely doesn't make a Spartan. To paraphrase from FoR, "you don't volunteer to be a Spartan."

When I get stuck under a Covie sniper nest, I just imagine that my SIV would rather be there than in the mess hall of the Infinity, trying to choke down a strawberry bull semen shake. It's a comforting thought.
Master Chief has no time for that shit, though. He obliterates any nest that crosses his visor.

Halo 5: Call of Buck.
New features: Master Chief now has the ability to call Eddie Buck's HEV down to strike an enemy location. Infinite times. Anywhere. Even if it's indoors. No structure known to the universe could hold the girth of Nathan Fillion. The end is nigh. 2014.

That post made me use the rep system for the first time since it was activated again. Why they activated it again, I do not know, but this post I approve
edit: Say what you will about Bungie, but the vets knew how to use their engine and rock the Halo-verse. Just look at that firefight trailer. Reach may have been sub-par to some of you in comparison to previous games, but that's because most of the vets were hard at work on Destiny, and not helping fill MS's pockets full of cows and cash.
I hope Bungie got David Scully in the divorce.

Korn has gone to the :mech: side. :(
On a side note, I miss Sergeant Johnson. :'(
Re: "Halo 4: I Get a Woman!" - Sgt. Mjr. A.J. Johnson, RIP
You know who didn't miss Sgt Johnson?
At least Sgt Stacker is still alive and kicking.
