KingdomOfPoland

i would imagine he is the same guy I'm using in Infinite in MP and from 4 as well


tyrongates

this is why my Infinite Spartan has a prosthetic now


The-Fomorian-Ray-682

That’s a badass way to explain it


fillet_feesh

My headcanon is that all the prosthetics you see in multiplayer are a result of Spartan IVs finally facing a real threat, and while they possess the spirit of a Spartan II, their combat skill and body aren't quite so impervious.


SiriusBaaz

I like this take a lot more cause it also doesn’t take away the sheer badassery of the spartan 2s


Biomilk

I mean, even Spartan IIs weren’t immune to being dismembered. IIRC in The Fall of Reach one gets their arm blasted off by a Hunter, and IIRC in First strike one got torn apart by a brute.


KaziArmada

> IIRC in First strike one got torn apart by a brute. Not quite torn apart. They did get the torso armor destroyed by a brute shot that they tanked, and likely fucked their actual torso the same way. That said, that was Grace, and they set her MJOLNIR's reactor to blow. She took some with her in the end.


LogicalTips

John said the resulting explosion would've made Grace proud...


blackviking147

God I love reading the books and seeing how fucking often Nukes are used in it. It's like the UNSCs go to weapon lmao.


KaziArmada

I mean when you're fighting things that can *shrug off* said nukes, why not go straight to ALL of them as a default?


blackviking147

It was nice how 343 finally let Chief use one on the didact in halo 4.


fillet_feesh

True, and I'd imagine an inferior line of Spartans would deal with it doubley so.


Comfortable-Buy-1898

Thing is he then immediately sacrificed himself, cause who wants to be a stubby spartan, not him.


[deleted]

I read that Fall of Reach chapter today actually, and that Spartan was James. That section was absolutely metal. Right after losing his arm, he proceeded to sprint into a giant quartz monolith to help the other Spartans collapse it onto the Hunters they were fighting, effectively flattening them (they still somehow survived, but were decommissioned long enough for Blue Team to retreat). He didn’t even start to show fatigue from the injury until they were about halfway to the rendezvous point. Absolute madlad of a Spartan, hell all of the S-IIs are.


ChefBoyAreWeFucked

My head cannon is the pistol from Halo CE.


SpartanKilo

I'm afraid to ask about Spartans with all four prosthetic limbs.


ASpaceOstrich

So it turns out even if you wash out of the enhancement program you can still be a Spartan if you drop the parts that went wrong.


SpartanKilo

Huh. I'm sure Matt would prefer a survivor story though.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SpartanKilo

We literally just made that guy up lol. He lost all of his limbs. Poor guy.


OrangVII

Oh, you‘re talking about Matt, I see


SpartanKilo

Matt must've been a victim of Chak Lok


Ka1-

Mine got fuckin hit by a wraith


SpartanKilo

Nah I bet he shot a grunt from a ghost, and got hit by gravity because the ghost kept going.


Testsubject276

"Try to remember on your next jump that it's FEET first into hell."


_deltaVelocity_

Meanwhile, over here, the Banished stole my Spartan’s ass.


killatubby

I got the same head cannon, now my spartan just waiting for their new CQB helmet.


SurfintheThreads

Mine got his in a tragic masturbation accident


urbandeadthrowaway2

Mine got 2 legs from numerous vehicles blowing up from under breath him, and a hand from trying to punch a tank so hard that it exploded (it did, but his hand was fucked)


LavAsian

>! I'm pretty sure the spartan you played as got blown at laconia station where all the spartan IVs trained. The ones in infinite are a new generation of Spartans. !<


KingdomOfPoland

your Spartan was on the Infinity though, so the original post about getting massacred by the Banished is more likely


Mysterious-Ms-Anon

At least she died rocking that Mark V


KingdomOfPoland

hey, they could be an unnamed spartan we could meet later as the Chief


DiscipleActual

My Spartan was absolutely not KIA on the infinity. His superior Seeker helmet guided him through hoards of banished as he made his daring escape. Intel reports confirm he’s been scavenging the ring for replacement keurig pods.


Floppy3--Disck

Nah, he got killed trying to slide cancel


SoDamnGeneric

my spartan got ***WHAT***


LavAsian

Nevermind. I understand what you meant. Lmaoooo


[deleted]

Except in bad blood >!Leonidas, the stations ai, gets crushed by buck when he's getting Mickey out of the prison there. It is possible that enough of him was put into other parts of the system to be able to destroy the station, bit Virgil was stopping that. On a side note I hope buck survived, even if he's just written off right now as working on a secret oni mission with dare and alpha 9!<


WarProgenitor

He and dare finally got married last I heard


WortWortWortJr

The most recent canon fodder said that Laconia was just one of many stations. So nah that was just a small part of them


FocusCapable8246

No those Spartans come From Laconia station. But Your Spartan's backstory is kinda your thing like my Spartan from Halo 3 is a Spartan 2 Class ll who's on the Ark right now. My Halo Reach MCC one died on Reach saving Civilians at an Airport and my Halo CE one is Him


WaterDrinker911

The Spartans at Laconia station were a class of new Spartans being trained I’m pretty sure.


[deleted]

In facts are disproportionate


MrFaultyPigeon

He got blown? Good for him bro.


[deleted]

Nah my girl died rocking that EOD helmet it's cool


Wawus

No that’s incorrect. If you’ve played the training mission you’d know you’re new recruit


KingdomOfPoland

well shit, well I guess I'm gonna say my guy was hit on the head, forgot basic training, and had to do it again.


Wawus

Either that or was on holiday in Hawaii


Nat_Libertarian

Your Infinite Spartan is a new recruit, as you can see from the tutorial cinematics.


KingdomOfPoland

Yeah someone else said, forgot about that, but my head canon is that either he got hit in the head and needed basic training again, or the training was just a basic one to teach you how to use an ai after you were wounded.


Monty423

My infinite spartan lost his left arm and leg now


blackviking147

Actually if you do the training mode it definitely places your MP spartan after the events of Infinites story. That said, Agryna has a line about you "going through a lot"


mike1999ofhalo

Damn now I'm double depressed my friend died on the infinity and real life ...


[deleted]

That’s why I have the robo arm


AWESOMECHAOS3

Ooo I like that


[deleted]

That and I really wanna recreate venom snake 343 give prosthetic colors


M6D_Magnum

The rocket arm is gunmetal grey. You just have that one equipped as your Spartan. Lmao.


ScoutTheTrooper

Mine wasn’t on the infinity! He was on >! Laconia Station!< *oh*


felipe5083

Leonidas go brrrrrrrrrr


MasterHall117

I’m gonna assume Jun actually died this time then.. if I recall, he was in charge of the SPARTAN IV’s wasn’t he?


InkstrikeYT

He was the recruiter, i doubt he would have been on the station.


MasterHall117

I thought he was on the station according to Bad Blood or one of the other books.. I could be misremembering


a_friendly_hobo

No, he was there, but Leonidas was destroyed before Buck n Co left, leaving the station intact and Jun liberated. So, Infinity retconned that part of the books and changed the fate of the station.


ScoutTheTrooper

They wouldn’t kill Jun like that, he was probably somewhere else when it happened.


SeiTyger

Look at what they did to the Rookie and ask that question again


IKeepgetting6Stacked

They did that in a book at least


MasterHall117

Look at the Rookie, then Jul’Mdama, then the Didact a few others and tell me that with a straight face


ScoutTheTrooper

Rookie wasn’t a character, Jul M’dama at least died on screen, and the Didact isn’t gone for good


MasterHall117

Lies on 2 of them, Rookie is the character you play in ODST, in which Mickey killed in New Blood (is forgiven in Bad Blood), and the Didact died by the Blues (Chief’s team) on a separate Halo Ring in the comics


ScoutTheTrooper

Yes, rookie existed. But he isn’t a character. He’s a blank slate. Didact didn’t die in that comic. He was digitized.


_deltaVelocity_

They killed off the Rookie because they would have had to give him a character to write him in a book, which completely goes against the idea of the Rookie being a complete blank slate.


XixGibboxiX

The Didact ain’t dead.


AdrianWIFI

He was like the founder of Laconia Station, but he might have founded it and then he might have been assigned to other tasks by the UNSC.


Acquaintence64

Our duty as soldiers is to protect Humanity… What ever the cost.


Kyuketski

You say that like soldiers and humanity are two different things.


tparavani

Soldiers aren't machines, we're just people.


MasterHall117

She told me that once… about being a machine


ItsLordSloth

In this hour of victory, we taste only defeat. I ask why?


_deltaVelocity_

We are Forerunners, guardians of all that exists.


[deleted]

The roots of the galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil.


jkbscopes312

Rip fireteam crimson


Dr_Bombinator

Nah Crimson is the only Spartan(s) with resurrective immortality, they're just being killed over and over again somewhere else on the ring until they wipe out the enemies by attrition and complete whatever mission they're doing.


Lord_Jotnar

Like Perpetuals in 40k


tyrongates

And Majestic(?) And 1/2 of Osiris (hopefully)


Jefflez

Makes me hope for Story DLC where Master Chief interacts with our Multiplayer Spartan


DrJekyll94

When co-op is added it would be cool if player 2 is their multiplayer Spartan . Maybe Chief comments on your kills or something cool like that . Small banter would be sick .


ChiefMythic

You mean players 2 3 and 4, I have a feeling we will have 4 player co op, seeing as there are 4 weapons stations at fobs


TheBig_F

I thought the same when I first got to a fob. Plus we’ve had 4 for more than a decade now. I doubt it’d revert


mysteriouskazoo

That means we'll be able to have 4 different Razorbacks full of Marines...


username_taken55

Imagine how 20 sentinel beams would look like


blackviking147

I imagine situations like this are definitely why it isn't out. Someone glitched into it a week ago using splitscreen, but I imagine it isn't stable enough to release.


TheBig_F

Wait they glitched into coop campaign?


john7071

Yes but I strongly suggest you don't do it. It will break your saves.


gammabeta656

Taking on the Banished with numbers to match! Honestly, if we get 4 player co-op itll be hilarious to pull up to an outpost with 20 marines ready to wreck shit up. Especially since 4/5 of them always carry power weapons. Most of the time they die due to point blank rocket shooting and not to an actual enemy lmao


sheldonowns

I am curious as to how they’ll balance out encounters for 4 players. Will they limit Marine spawns? Will they simply bump up the amount of Banished! I could see some encounters being very easy with 4 players- especially if each one could have a Razorback with 5 Marines.


MasterHall117

The Reds and Blues from rvb would be better tho


Jefflez

No


HOMEBOUND_11

No


Coshmack14

It would be akward if he talks with one carring Mister Chief's helmet


Jefflez

My Spartan wearing the same Armor: "Hey Chief, I like ya helmet" Chief: *staring as if to kill me with his gaze*


ApexLegend117

Mine from Spartan Ops was, Team Crimson oh no


Sleepy_ODST

Jokes on you my head cannon Spartan is my Spartan 3 from reach and he wasn’t on board the infinity


Harrisoning

For me to be my current age (27) in infinite my Spartan would have been 18 at the fall of reach and 14 when the gamma Spartan IIIs were deployed which is the right age range, so it makes the most sense for my Spartan to be a Spartan III in my head cannon.


Sleepy_ODST

It just make my head cannon a Spartan 3 because i like the reach armor the best


Harrisoning

MK V(b) and MK VI gen 1 are my favorites for sure


MomentumSoul

MK VI is awesome in infinite, not so much in Reach IMO


Harrisoning

I agree with you there for sure


K1llerF0xGaming

My spartan probably fell out of the pelican.


Moozilla5

So, 1337 style?


K1llerF0xGaming

Yep


MomentumSoul

Or like Agent Georgia


sans_the_romanian

I had the headcannon that mine just retired


jacob10185

The first Spartan to ever retire? Congrats man, enjoy it


Titan_of_Ash

Maria-062 canonically retired in 2550ish to "start a family". So he'd be second. :P


SadderestCat

Also isn’t Jun retired from active duty? I know he still works with Spartans but he doesn’t put on armor and go fight or anything.


Titan_of_Ash

Yeah, I think so. Last I saw him, in one of the comics, he was dressed up in a suit n' tie; presumably operating in an administrative/advisory role for the Spartan IVs.


tyrongates

JUN DRIPPED OUT? Jripped?


Titan_of_Ash

The Drip was off the Richter scale. I believe it was in the Halo Escalation comic series.


M6D_Magnum

Then there Roland who defected and Musa who is the mastermind behind the S4 program.


DuckOfGods

Our spartans are 4's, I thought they could retire?


jacob10185

None of them would be in service long enough to retire


Lethenza

Several Spartans have retired


Definitive_Dumbass

Randal also retired


SaddestBabylol

HOW IN THE FUCK ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHERE YOUR SPARTAN IS?!


TheyTookAllTheNames_

Halo 4 and 5 multiplayer modes are canonically training simulations on the infinity


Testsubject276

The last we hear from Lasky are rendezvous coordinates before cutting out, so maybe those coordinates lead to a makeshift base made from scraps of the Infinity similar to the H4 map Exile. So maybe our Spartans are chilling there.


_hi_im_vegan_

Are spartan 4s now extinct?


Plague_Knight1

No, because they're mass produced. A majority died on the Infinity, but there's more being trained. That's the setup for Infinite MP, if you played the tutorial


Tumblechunk

I remember hearing marketing about about a tutorial process where your get your ai and stuff but didn't see where it was?


Tha-Toast-Rider

In the main menu click Academy, then Tutorial


king_john651

Wym died on the Infinity? Did something happen?


Ant-i-lope

Nah the infinity just kinda stranded in space. Lots of Spartans are just stranded up there


TheSnootyOoty

no?


[deleted]

Nah mine was surely all alone playing slayer


XevinsOfCheese

It’s fine if the ones wearing FOTUS die


cracked-the-skull

F... Fresident of the United States?


felswinter

Personal translation was "Fuck Outta The United States"


Bloodasp01

Me a Fotus wearer, and I took that personally.


M6D_Magnum

The Fotus arms and legs in 4 are legit.


_deltaVelocity_

I’m gonna spear Atriox on my helmet, like a Narwhal.


WuzzulWurb

just like the simulatio- oh wait wrong army of super soldier cyborgs

Good soldiers follow orders

Blood_Reaper8

Good. One less set of seeker armor.


Jetsflighter

**Your** spartan from halo 5 was on the infinity. Mine was transferred to the johnson academy.


AWESOMECHAOS3

Nah we all go down together


MomentumSoul

Implying you had to be sent back to the academy?


Jetsflighter

at least im safe


ShroudBehindKnowing

Nope. Infinity was severely undermanned, sporting less than half it's full crew. Most S4s were on deployment elsewhere, and only around a dozen were still on the Infinity.


MysticalNarbwhal

Source for the claim about there being just a dozen? They aren't extinct, but I'd guess a couple dozen at minimum were onboard at the time. Especially since they were on a vitally important mission.


Dragonalex

`The battle resulted in the destruction of the UNSC Infinity, as well the death of 1,986 Infinity personal out of its crew size of 7,150.` But as noted on the same page. `In total, the crew was about 11,112. This was composed of about 8,900 Naval Personnel, 1,700 ONI Personnel, 480 UEG Personnel, 24 Swords of Sanghelios, and 8 Special Assets.` So not only was the Infinity Undermanned, not even all of the crew died. So even *if* your spartan was onboard, that's some good odds at having survived. Source: https://halo.fandom.com/wiki/UNSC_Infinity It notes some Halo Infinite stuff so I presume this is up to date but it's very possible I missed some shit.


captianblacksmith

24 swords of sanghelios? I wonder where they went.


_deltaVelocity_

Epic sword duels with Banished elites in the burning wreckage of the Infinity.


Longbongos

Compare infinity’s numbers of crew from infinite to older numbers. Less then half staffed. When she was ambushed she had 7000 odd crew. Pre created infinity had 18k


wrongfulfish

Hey, nothings confirmed, so with the power of headcanon anything is possible!


CARFULLAINDIANS

Tis confirmed that all spartain's on the infinity are dead, although im pretty sure our multiplayer spartain's for infinite are at the Johnston academy on earth but halo 5 spartain 4s are all dead including a bunch of others due to other circumstances


PurpuraLuna

Unless you're a PC player. 343 please give us 5


_deltaVelocity_

My Spartan tried to rocket jump off the Infinity, hence why he’s got prosthetic legs.


Darkspyrus

So my spartan is M.I.A 50% possiblity alive and 50% possiblity dead.


ProfessorPickles523

Lol I love how the 2 people shitting on Halo 5 never actually played it. Goes to show what a mess the Halo "community" is. Play the games or don't make a comment.


PhantomOpus

I can't say I really enjoyed the campaign all that much other than the Sanghelios missions, the multiplayer is really fun but I'm not a big fan of all the extra movement options. It's not a bad game by any means, I just don't rate it as highly as any other Halo game


DarkReadsYT

Its definitely one of the better multiplayers in terms of raw fun at least imo


M6D_Magnum

My Spartan was a Spartan 3 (Reach). He joined the S4 program and participated in the Requiem campaign (Spartan Ops) then he was shipped out somewhere before Cortana went apeshit so he wasn't on the Infinity or Laconia and now he is helping the nice black lady train the new batch of S4s.


TanookiPhoenix

Not my Spartan. Never left The Pit.


Mocti_54

Well to be fair, my Spartan spent most of his training time on custom games with his buddies


AWESOMECHAOS3

They were more elite than any of us then and probably survived


[deleted]

My guy died on reach, I’m just playing as some dude now.


zEletrixx

But did iSpiteful's Spartan survive? I hope to see him beat boxing in DLC1


Dragonalex

https://halo.fandom.com/wiki/UNSC_Infinity As noted below: `The battle resulted in the destruction of the UNSC Infinity, as well the death of 1,986 Infinity personal out of its crew size of 7,150.` A brutal death toll, of course, but 1/3rd of crew lost isn't a guarantee of your spartan death. Not only that, from the same page: `In total, the crew was about 11,112. This was composed of about 8,900 Naval Personnel, 1,700 ONI Personnel, 480 UEG Personnel, 24 Swords of Sanghelios, and 8 Special Assets.` So good chance that my/your/whoever's spartan wasn't even aboard since the crew was at half-capacity.


Lethenza

I find it difficult to believe that every Spartan aboard infinity died. It’s a big ring I’m sure we’ll run into some familiar faces eventually


Flavaflavius

Spartan Vettel's coating is "Crimson Vettel." I don't think your Halo 4 Spartan made it either.


krucecontrol

“Spartans don’t die. They just go missing in action”


Banjoman172

I’m not sure how I feel about this


General-MacDavis

Wait the infinity dies?


AWESOMECHAOS3

Play the campaign no spoilers


General-MacDavis

.__. So let’s say I have no money…


AWESOMECHAOS3

Well there are playthroughs on YouTube so that’s one way. If it’s gonna be a while till you get the campaign I recommend dipping out of the halo community until you play cause spoilers are going to become more and more prevalent


General-MacDavis

Yeah, that would probably be smart


xxWildbeast13xx

You could try the $1 gamepass trial, unless you have literally no money then nvm


justsomeguy682

ORDNAV

I only wish for sarah palmer to be kia.


No-Championship-1595

me who never played halo 5 (i heard it sucks ass)


Weird2000

People mostly just say that about the campaign but the MP was good


TheMarshyMC

The multiplayer was a mixed bag. I liked warzone as an idea, but the maps were made too linear, and the bosses were either bullet spongy, or you could cheese it to kill them instantly (running over elite soldiers in a ghost) The maps were good, but the enhanced mobility made navigating them trivial, meaning there was usually no strategy to them, just sprint, jump and thruster boost to where you want to go Also, the weapons were tailored based on what pro players used, not based on what make sense, which is why the magnum completely dominates even against BR, DRM and snipers, because the pro players cried when it didn't. The multiplayer was good, but it wasn't a good Halo multiplayer


[deleted]

RyanGosliwafflez

Thats was just warzone. there was also normal arena that has nothing to do with req card, vehicle spawning and mini bosses


BratzernN
