I would think it would be called a mammoth or something, considering it's size.

Elites don't like using other weapons besides their own I thought. And the storm group in glasslands had brutes who stayed loyal to them. So maybe they will be like in Reach where they are just shocktroops.

What would be even better is if Mendez makes an appearence. Someone has to train those Spartan recruits after all.

I think it would be cool if we got to visit a Halo version of a well known city. Maybe Washington just for the historical stuff (and because I'm sure the target audience is Americans). Paris or London would be cool also.

I just noticed that I forgot to add a sentence to the last thing. That was someone else's thoughts about it basically summed up from Bungie. I've never read ghosts of onyx. And I'm assuming the thing is in Glasslands as I have no idea where else I would have seen it. I don't really follow Halo too much besides a few things from Halo 4. So I'm still going to say that without armor theoretically the Spartan III's would win in a fight as I remember somwhere in glasslands this is stated. Also it sounds like you think I am saying that the Spartan III's would just wreck the Spartan II's, but I am just saying they may be tougher because of something that a mediocre author wrote about. I've seen a couple other times where people don't like Glasslands because the author messes some things up.

Well I still remember seeing something of the sort in the book, so until I re read it or something I'm going to assume it is in there. And about augmentation. The Spartan III augmentations weren't inferior to the Spartan II's. There were advances in the process that allowed for it to be used on a wider variety of people (that's why it is a drug instead of a surgical procedure for SIIIs). Then in the special case for gamma company they had a superior augmentation to the SII's as Kurt used illegal drugs. Kurt also said Gamma company were the most superior spartans, and he was a Spartan II, so I would hope he knows what he is talking about. So in theory I'd say Spartan III's are superior (at least gamma company) to Spartan II's. But what gives Spartan II's the edge is their combat experience and their armor.

If I had glasslands I might look for it, but I don't own the book. But I remember it because I was sort of surprised to hear it. It may have been during one of those arguments between Mendez and Halsey, and Halsey thought to herself that Spartan III's were physically superior but didn't want to mention it to Mendez. Or alternatively Mendez mentioned it to make her feel bad.

Halo 2 had fifteen.

Hold on. I thought they were bringing back a system to match people with players ofthe similar skill. The "1-50" just isn't visable to other players. Or was this just some rumor I heard?

Sales, popularity, and things like that don't make a game good. Writing, gameplay, characters, etc. make a game good.

But what if there are 11 levels!?!?

Because of the authencity.

In glasslands someone (either Halsey or a Spartan II) says the Spartan III's would have beaten them in hand to hand combat. Also addressing the thing about spartan III's age. Some of them are 14 during 2552 while others are in their late 20's. Ao that is more than a 10 year difference.

I would guess that it would be improved Spartan III enhancements. If I'm not mistaken Spartan III's could also join at any age and didn't have to have the perfect genes. Though now that I think about it, if the UNSC fixed the augmentation process, then Spartan IV's could be better than Spartan II's. They most likely have the same training as Spartan III's (which is superior to Spartan II's), and similar enhancements to Spartan II's. But we don't know how they augment them.

Imagine a predator gametype with Promethean vision.

No they still genetically enhance them. They were planning on doing this originally (ORION project) but the technology at the time made it impossible to perform on adults, so they had to use children. Now in 2557 the technology is good enough to genetically enhance adults.

Also if you die a lot by them they scale down slightly. I've seen three ultras turn into a minor, a major, and an ultra.

It's confirmed in Glasslands. Admiral Parangosky says that the Spartan IV program will not be shrouded in secrecy like the past projects and it is open to volunteers as long as they can prove themselves.

But that lags like crazy for most phones. There are too many things going on here and there on this forum for it to be that practical on the mobile interface.

Psst, don't make your color white. Most mobile users can't read it.

Though if he does have a geas it sort of ruins the part where Chief has inner conflict about things.

They could possibly Spartan IV's. Also I'm pretty sure someone said that the arbiter would make an appearence in Spartan Ops.

No, it works. My proof is the Bethesda forums. Though they would have to make campaign the spoilers section and leave general discussion as is.

Their leveling up gets harder because that's how it is in every game, not because it is like call of duty. If every level was exactly the same amount of experience, then it wouldn't feel like leveling up.

He died escorting to CASTLE Base. In a book it says here Spartan II escort died, Jun was wearing Mjolnir armor so he could have been considered a Spartan II (And the book came out before the game, so...)
