This story was created to show the kind of hardships UNSC special ops soldier went through without Mjolnir armor, kind of like Reach showing how bad the war actually was

locke, buck, and arbiter aren't dead.

and nobody really likes buck ever since 343 decided to make him a spartan

Jonah is the green one and Roland is the red one.

I wouldn't trust you with my kids. You don't have kids. then there's no problem.

That's why I love Spartan 3s. They got humor.

Chin Nation Spartans never die...they just go missing in action

Read First Strike. They do die. Be real like really?

Sierra 042 Douglas nah man spartans neva die

Jdog n gets it

jdog n they very much do die, read about the history of the Spartan III program

SIII fight to avenge their families, SIIs fight because ONI told them at 10 too

S2s were kidnapped at 4 or 6. Can't quite remember.

Spartan 3's were also not as effective as the 2's

Spartan 3's also were more animalistic, they were designed to revert back to being primitive humans and go savage on their enemies

they made halo better WIY DO PEEPEL HAYT 343

How did they make halo better exactly? Cause from where i'm standing they have done nothing but ruin it

Yeah but I can dream, this short has a better story than all of halo 5

Halo 5s story was set up for the next game idk how so many people miss that, halo 4 5 and 6 are a trilogy basically and the 2nd is always setup for the 3rd

TargetFinder72 I know it was a setup but the story itself and characters were terrible and the gameplay is borderline call of duty. If you don't believe me watch The Act Man's videos on it.

Hypocrisy at its finest

Dr. Bright not many knew of the Silent Shadow, and the way they act is more like an Inquisitorial role so...

Plus it's quite probable that more experienced Elites such as the Silent Shadow recognise there is practically no difference between themselves and the Headhunters and they tend to be more pragmatic types anyway compared to an typical honour obsessed Elite Minor

Possibly

Stalín shut up :(

RazgrizOne vengeful orphans

You must realize that 1.Only one set of Mk. VII armor exists and it's wearer is Naomi-010. 2. Mk. VII is GEN 1 armor, not GEN 2. 3. GEN 2 armor is all the same, just with different variants for different situations whereas GEN 1's armor(Mk. IV-VII), actually all had changes from the previous model and it wasn't until Mk. VI that variations of the armor for different environments existed.

Turbo furby Gen 2 armor is however more efficient and has a higher Speed/strength multiplier to the point Spartan IV`s can match Spartan II`s physical abilities wise (not so much in sheer skill, reflexes, experience and agility tho, and outside armor the IV`s would get raped). The gen 2 armor is far newer afterall, so that was to be expected.

22steve5150 Spartan three's a throw away weapons so It would make sense to outfit them with more expendable equipment. at least that's what I got from Ghosts of Onyx

pantherace1000 A couple of things 1--They aren't throw away or suicide troops, they are simply considered much more expendable than previous Spartans while much, much more capable than ODSTs or Marines. In 2 cases they were deployed into suicide missions because there was no choice, it was either 2 dozen dead Spartan-2s along with their super expensive MJOLNIR armor gone, or several thousand ODSTs plus several thousand supporting Navy and Marine personnel and a dozen or so starships, or 300x Spartan-3's with the much more affordable training and armor (compared to Spartan 2s) in order to complete the high value objective. 2--Top Spartan 3 personnel were taken out of the Spartan 3 companies and placed in special units such as NOBLE and Headhunters, among some other groups, and either given MJOLNIR or highly upgraded versions of SPI armor. These units were never expended in suicide missions. 3--The original idea behind the Spartan 3 program was to expand it to eventually field tens of thousands of them. Yet they never did field numbers like that, possibly because it took longer than they thought to apply their genetic and implantation improvement technology to be usable on adults (up until Spartan IV program only pre-pubesent people could go through the process). By the time that technology had improved to augment adults, the technology to more cheaply mass produce MJOLNIR armor had also matured, resulting in the "best of both worlds" with the Spartan IV program.

22steve5150 I was just using what I learned from Ghosts of Onyx, after that point I stopped following the series for the most part.

Yah

Yeah me too

yeah just give Felix metas mask

yes

TheNukedNacho I know right

Imagine if in halo 5 had this pair of headhunters chasing down chief.

Richard The Parachute Ninja the last good Spartan program the Spartan IV’s were shit

There are spartan 4s with much better armor to bring them close to 2s in fighting ability

Anjaney Asreet Rout no not really💀

@@anjaneyasreetrout2444 Nope Spartan 4's didnt mature with augmentations in them, they became them after they were adults. They all suck

@@Carbiniz3r dude I said "with armor". Go read halopedia...

i thought so

I thought so but wasn't sure

Never noticed that

Yup

SAW The Spartan the RC staff helped make Halo 5???

SAW The Spartan wow 343 had so many good people and they still managed to produce a piece of shit. What pisses me off the most is how they just ignored the pretty decent story material they had in Halo 4.

ever played halo reach?

***** halo nation and halopedia all describe this. The Spartan 3's were on average older than Spartan-2's when recruited but the ages did vary by quite a lot, and they consisted of orphans from planets glassed by the covenenant, not trained for nearly as long as Spartan-2's, given safer but slightly less effective augmentations, and given SPI Armor (basically heavily upgraded ODST armor with active camo ability and no energy shields or exoskeleton speed and power boost) instead of MJOLNIR armor since MJOLNIR was incredibly expensive at that point (shortly after the war the much cheaper Gen 2 suits make it affordable to outfit hundreds of Spartans in MJOLNIR).

The KZfaq Rookie idk just role with it

The KZfaq Rookie artwork mistake. I'm the book it even says Roland picks up a carbine

Even in his death, he made sure that the Covenant would not gain access to Onyx and its technology. He knew he wasn't going to make it with the injuries he sustained during the battle of Onyx, so he went with the only viable option he had left, nuke the Covies while sending the rest ahead. Great to see his sacrifice to save the lives of the SPARTAN IIs of Blue Team, Tom and Lucy of Beta Company, the remaining SPARTAN IIIs of Saber and Halsey and Mendez paid off.

Omg neptune

+rannen woodworth 12-16 years of age.

rannen woodworth What? The Spartan-IIs were the major force on Reach, the majority of them died protection the ODP generators. The fuck are the talking about?

@The Random Gaming Box spartans IIIs that didnt live to the events of reach (alpha and beta company) all died under the age of 18. Any that lived til reach or after (gamma company being the exception as they were all under 18) were in their 20s. They were child suicide soldiers.

@The Random Gaming Box no problem

Also children

Exactly

I wish Elites could do something for once...

Your theory is correct my friend because they confirmed it in the halo encyclopaedia

Relatable

big 131 I have to imagine they’re very expensive and complicated to mass produce. If the UNSC couldn’t afford to give the SIII’s proper armor they probably can’t afford to supply even a limited number of these to regular troops.

@@SergeantKillGore The UNSC produces its own money, thus simply making EMP’S cost nothing would be a lot better than not.

@@michaelterrell5061 The UNSC did have a limitless budget in theory, but they were still constrained by physical materials and manpower. There was most likely not a readily available supply of materials to mass produce the grenades for distribution to regular infantry.

@@SergeantKillGore ah I see that makes a lot more sense then now that you put it that way.
