  1. Hi everyone, Spartan here with Site Poll 97. We had some nice suggestions on last week's poll, talking about a potential replacement for John-117. With Locke being a controversial option, Jerome-092 was a popular choice. Many others thought we should have a different protagonist for each game, as suggested in the poll. Click here to view Site Poll 96, and here for the Twitter responses. Which Alpha-Nine member do you like most? We may end up seeing the old fireteam back in the newer games, considering they're reunited now. These guys know how to get the job done. They make one hell of a team, but who do you like most? This includes former and current (as of 2558) members, ensure you avoid spoilers from the books. State your choice, and why (spoiler-free). Looking forward to hearing your thoughts, Spartan out.
  2. My friend and I are looking for a smallish halo 5 military clan to join, we were both fully conscripted Spartans IIs and are looking to join a clan, we dont mind starting from the bottom and earning our ranks because we are sure we can do it. message TRAP Odysseus to contact us.
  3. Company Name: Innocent Sparks Point of Contact: NobleSeV7en (Andrew) or ColonelKernel27 (Kunal) Company Mission: This is a Spartan Company dedicated to having fun on the battlefield!! Whether we are blazing gloriously through the campaign, or teaming up to wreak havoc in the Arena and the Warzone, we will kick -Yoink- and laugh together!! For the friendly and fun-loving Spartans among us, come bear the banner of the (not so) Innocent Sparks. In order to be accepted to join the Sparks, you must have a >9000 KD ratio, play at least 27 hours a day, have 120% customisations unlocked, all Level 10 REQs and -- I'm just ducking with you ;D All we want is good people, with a fun (and maybe a little dark) sense of humour, and a carefree attitude, to come take up arms with your new buddies We're not aiming for a big competitive company, but rather a relatively small group of guys and girls to keep the team close and make new friends to share good times with We look forward to hearing from you guys!!
  4. Creators: I is Bulimic & I is Dislexic Map Name: Beer Pong Map Gametype: Beer Pong (Assault) Players: 1v1 to 2v2. I've even had 4v4 and it was still fun so as long as it's even teams it should be good. Description: Red vs Blue. Spartan slam the ball into the cups. After you make it, hit the switch to sink the cup. If you get a rim job you die instantly. If you miss the cup completely but still land on the table you can go back to the teleporter in the middle of the table and get another shot (a roll back) however the other team can shoot at you. DON'T SHOOT AT EACH OTHER UNLESS THE TEAM GETS A ROLL BACK.
  5. Hey guys, I built an app called “Spartan Up" to find other Halo players to play with on Xbox Live based on what game modes want to play. Players set up a profile, go online, see who else is online, notify each other you want to play. It’s like a “Looking For Group” service, but more streamlined without having to go onto a forum or website. Website: http://spartanup.tk/ iPhone Link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/spartan-up/id1050542554?mt=8 This is a first build of the app so feedback is appreciated. Q. What platforms does the app support? A. Currently, there’s just an iPhone version. I’m interested in working on an Android and/or Windows Phone version of the app depending on the feedback. Q. This app sounds like “Spartan Companies”. A. It is…but a very minimalistic version of it! I was surprised at the release of Spartan Companies and it got announced so late in my development that I didn’t want to throw everything away. Hopefully, my app will be useful for the ones not interested in browsing the website all the time or do not have a computer handy next to them. Q. Does your app integrate with the new Halo 5 API? A. Unfortunately, no. Again, this was announced so late in my development that I didn’t get a chance to use it and it wasn’t part of my initial plans. Perhaps in a future release. Thanks all!
  6. Customized Kat. A pilot helmet from the infection pack, and Carter's data pad. I left the blue parts there cause it looks like grunt blood. The robot arms have the best articulation.
  7. This is where you can make your halo reach spartan's story, such as their birth place, expearence in the Spartan program, and in some cases, their deaths.

  11. Been on this site as a guest the past couple days and really like the site to keep updated with Halo news. I decided to join up and become a member
  12. Hey everyone! By now I'm sure all or the majority of you have seen the Flood match on Complex. However, this time the player starts out as a Spartan.. however he dies within the first twenty seconds of the match But we get him as a Spartan again in Round 3 so no worries This overall is some really good gameplay, and it happens to showcase a bit more of the map than the last video that was released. so be sure to watch and enjoy c: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jwfap3S8O7I&feature=g-user-u Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed. Don't forget to give Ducain23 a like for all of the news he's helped bring to us
  13. First we have Elite armour being shown, and now we have Spartan Armour! What do you think? I think the Halo 2: Anniversary model looks amazing. The two squares look like armour colour customisiation to me. Obviously there may still be some changes being made, bit I'm really looking forward to rocking these armour sets. It also seems that they have brought stances from Halo 4 back. Which armour set are you looking forward to getting back into? Edit: More images!
  14. Prototype Rendered Obsolete by New version. Link to New Thread. Never seems to be a thread about this or they really aren't that accurate to begin with. So i decided to make one. In this thread i will be discussing what I've gathered about the 4 main Spartan projects, not including sub-projects. It is my facts/opinion that i have formulated over the course of my being a Halo fan. The scale will rank the soldier from most dominant to least dominant. Keep in mind that some Stats in this thread are based on assumptions since many things are never directly stated. Probably because it gives the writer freedom to let the character achieve a physical feat without making it inconsistent with another Writer's ideas. My best guess. Spartan I Program(Project Orion) This was the first attempt by the UNSC to produce Super Soldiers. It augmented soldiers physically and mentally, but some scientists were concerned about the long term effects of the program even with its success and had it shut down. (Johnson will be the example of the program since he is a well know main character who is a Spartan 1.) Some physical stats of a Spartan 1: Reflexes quick enough to avoid a shotgun blast. Strong enough to jump what looks to be 25(7.62m) to 30(9.144m) feet with armor on that weighs him down. If your not sure what the means with Long jump, the current world record for Long jump is around 29 feet. That being said, Johnson was also weighed down by his armor which would also hinder the distance he could achieve. With those pictures being shown, i think it would be reasonable to come to the conclusion that most if not all Spartan 1's were of Olympian Gold medal quality, maybe even better in terms of physical composition. Spartan II Project The Spartan 2's were made from genetically perfect children who were trained for 8 years before receiving augmentations that made them into Super humans. Then to further increase their combat effectiveness, they were given GEN 1 MJOLNIR armor which doubles strength and speed, but also enhances reflexes by a factor of 5. It was said that the 2's would only get better as their bodies adapted to the augmentations. Stats of Spartan 2's: Chief was considered an average Spartan, but lived long enough for his augmentations to adapt to his body more. So, Chief will be the example since we have things to go by. Some Chief feats 27+ years after augmentations: In Halo: The Flood, Chief flipped a 7000lbs(3175.15kg) Warthog by the Bumper. This particular maneuver mostly utilized the biceps and Deltoids while also firing his pectoral muscles. The book never mentioned any sign of strain while Chief did this. Which leads me to believe he can handle more weight. In Halo The Fall of Reach, Chief ran at 62.5mph(100.5kph). In the Same book, Chief was able to deflect a missile with the swipe of a fore arm. In Halo: the Fall of Reach, Chief displayed incredible signs of intelligence while trying to calculate whether or not he was standing in 1g. As shown below. With those Spartan 2 feats out of the way, i can gladly say that the Spartan 2 is the true definition of Super human and is well beyond the success of the Spartan 1 program in terms of effectiveness and quality of the soldier produced. Spartan III Program The Spartan 3 program was developed to create super soldiers out of orphans who would be effective due to numbers rather than individual prowess. While the Spartan 3 program was effective, it doesn't have many "Solid" things to go by. Some Assumptions/stated facts: Due to the Wider gene pool of the Candidates, the results of the augmentations more than likely became inconsistent, but from what we've seen. In Halo: Ghosts of Onyx, Kurt stated the the Program would give them the strength of 3 ordinary soldiers and they can run at 18 mph(28.9kph). There reflexes were boosted 300%. The novel also stated that the 3's had speed and reflexes no Covenant could follow. They also managed pretty well in CQC with Elites. The 3's use SPI armor which does not increase the wearers strength or speed, but can camouflage them consistently for a great period of time unless damage is taken. The Spartan 3's may not have many feats to go by and may have been mass produced for successful one way trip missions, but they were still effective soldiers in large numbers, none the less. Spartan IV Program The Spartan 4 Program was meant to be the Culmination of the Spartan 2 and Spartan 3 program, by harnessing the Combat effectiveness of the Spartan 2's, while also harnessing the Success rate of the Spartan 3 program to create the 4th iteration of the Spartan program. No gene restrictions, if you have the service record, your in. The Spartan 4 program augmentations are never explained in detail, but we can make some educated guesses from what was given. In Halo: Initiation, Palmer states that she is able to outrun a horse. The average horse can run at 40(64.3kph) to 44mph(70.8kph). In Halo Initiation, Palmer states that her muscles are coated with a substance that lets them work harder. Studies have shown that the human body only uses a small percentage(roughly 20% to 30%) of its capable strength, which is also backed by super human feats in dire situations. Which would lead me to believe that the 4's can use all of their strength at will rather then in a dangerous situation. For example, lets say that an ODST can bench somewhere around 375lbs(170kg) or can curl 70lbs(31kg). After augmentations, the ODST can bench somewhere around 1125lbs(510kg), and can curl somewhere around 210lbs(95kg). Through the utilization of the Human body's capable strength. This is also backed by their bones being made much(15x) stronger(like the 2's), allowing the muscles to tense up tighter with out breaking the skeleton. Which, logically, is why the Human body doesn't always use all of its strength, unless needed. They were also given other augmentations like faster healing time and so forth. The spartan 4's already excellent abilities were magnified by GEN 2 MJOLNIR armor. Note: I knew this existed, but i couldn't find it until now. According to Frank O'Connor. An average Spartan IV in GEN 2 MJOLNIR armor, can "definitely" take on a Spartan II in GEN 1 MJOLNIR armor. However, out of armor a Spartan II would win. 1:15 - 2:10 members.shaw.ca/laird2/temp/derp/interview.mp3 Like the 2's, it was stated by jun that the 4's will only improve as they adjust to their augmentations. Thats about what we have for the 4's stats. My list from greatest to least. In terms of Dominance. 2=>4>3>1 That was my list of superiority of Spartans. Tell me what you think below. Do you have a differing opinion? If so please tell me what you think. If anyone wants an exact source rather than just the media title, just ask. Also, feel free to add a Spartan feat to the thread if you know of any.
  15. How ar ya lads I'm looking for an SII willing to give us a conscription. I'm a Hero and I was almost an SIII but my conscriptor moved to destiny so I was left on me own on the final stage. If your interested please message: XDemonicShadowZ Cheers lads
  16. "Patter" This was based on option number 1. I hope you like it! Just about 2500 words, I hope I didn't go over
  17. Hey everyone! I've teamed up with Sparky to give you guys an Event of MASS DESTRUCTION. What's that meant to mean? Basically, we're going to destroy each other.

The Forge Island DLC is necessary. It can be downloaded for Free. We hope to see you there.

  18. I noticed he had what looked like a ONI symbol on the chest. SECTION 3 worked with S-IIIs, so ONI having their own Spartan brand is not a surprise to me. ONI is mysterious, perhaps they secretly hate the UNSC. Think he's here to assassinate remaining UNSC spartans?

  20. So i'm sure this has already been said by someone somewhere upon the forums but has anyone considered both of Chief and the mystery spartan working like the Halo 2 Campaign system. Where as you would play maybe a mission or 2 as chief and then maybe switch over too the other spartan and repeat until their paths collide. Just an idea to throw out there. Not sure what to speculate on the silver spartan. Maybe he is looking to bring chief back if chief went rouge maybe he has a completely different goal or maybe he is out to kill chief. So many questions but im sure some of them will be answered at E3 discuss on here freely!
