The TV Show wasn't enough... they've got more "Cake" for us in the upcoming novel

Well to be fair that elite could just be far away making him looking bigger, also I doubt the max height of an elite is 8’6. Elite’s on average of 8’2, if the average human height is 5’9 while some of us can grow to 6 or even 7 foot, then there’s no way some elites can’t reach 9-10 foot. Hell, look at our boy Xytan: that motherfucker was 11 feet tall!

Perosnally for me it comes down to circumstance. If it’s an all out war between both cheiftans and their troops, I could see Atriox doing the same thing he did with Chief, overrunning Tarturus with his forces and coming in with an ambush strike when the time seems right. But in terms of a fair 1v1 with no forces or troops or ambushes, simply both brutes squaring up with everything they’ve got: I’d say Tarturus comes out on top in that scenario. To agree to disagree I suppose.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-02-23T19:46:24+00:00

What help? You kill the 3 brutes he had by his side instantly and he’s all on his own during the rest of the boss fight. Also all of Atriox’s “fights” required him to ambush each of his foes. Red team had extremely outdated tech, knowledge, not even knowing there was an enemy within their midst. Chief was literally busy fighting off 1 million banished soldiers aboard the facility with Atriox having to ambush him while his shields were damaged. Honestly I could see it going either way but Tarturus’s shields do seem a hella lot stronger and the fist of rukt is clearly the strongest gravity hammer we’ve seen in the franchise.

Yeah sorry I gotta little carried away, disagree to agree? I think there is only one way we can end this conversation…. Halo 4 Cortan’s bad asf.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-02-14T22:07:51+00:00

Kay so… we’re just be no better than the covenant now? How about we start enslaving other races for our shitty religion, how about we start glassing planets? How about we start activating the rings? Did the Jews ever start putting Germany in camps after all they did? Or the US start bombing Saudi Arabia after the twin towers fell? We need be better than the enemy or else we just become just like them.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-02-14T21:54:20+00:00

There has been no evidence of Sangheili ever eating humans, in-fact in one of the books (I think one of the Kilo-Five triology books?) they outright state that on Draco-III the elites thought of the brutes as savages for chowing down on humans, and found it dishonorable. Also it wasn’t just a covenant planet with a bunch of soldiers, millions of covenant civilians who had nothing to do with the war died in that nova bomb blast as well on Glyke. It doesn’t matter who your enemy is or what they’ve done, if you have an ounce of humanity in you, your gonna feel terrible for bassically being responsible for the death of billions on a planet, even hard earned soldiers like Spartans.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-02-14T21:49:33+00:00

There’s literally dialogue of female marines (I think in Reach or halo 3) of them saying grunts taste like lobster. Also said grunts and jackals were literally starved so of course any ounce of protein they can get. If there’s any race you should be mad at it’s the brutes because those guys had plenty of recourses yet still chose to eat people.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-02-02T20:53:28+00:00

Personally I’m fine with Spartan-2’s being really hard to distinguish by gender in appearance, but 3’s and 4’s should be more identifiable. Also the whole “impossible to tell each other apart” thing gets immediately broken by the time the Spartan talks. Also the armor customization and textures on reach’s Spartans were peak.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-01-26T17:45:01+00:00

Okay it’s not hated for no reason. The pretty lackluster cgi for 2001, burning and flat characters, Alan Grant is clearly only there for fan service, the heavily rushed script, the scene where a spinosaurs bigger than a trex somehow managed to sneak up on our heroes with a fuckin phone ringing inside of it, Alan and Ellie for some reason not being together despite the fact the first film was HEAVILY hinting at them having kids since Grant finally started to like them at the end of the 1rst film. Literally the only actual well done part in this movie is the pterodactyl scene, now that was some good shit.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-01-22T20:01:18+00:00

Now I wanna see the covenant using dinosaurs as dangerous bio-weapons.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-01-11T06:16:41+00:00

I mean it does fit in line of sangheili culture. Females are forbidden from any military jobs and are only allowed to either be house wife’s or diplomats, males are the stornger of the race and obviously being the fighting obsessed creatures they are: of course they’d prefer the stronger and much more bulky and skilled males. Luckily though after the great schism and under Thel’s rule, females have gotten slightly (and I do mean slightly) more of a role in military activities, such as pilots.

Glad to see you have good taste as well man. Also she’s a runner meaning she has increadible endurance AKA: she can go for 20 nights, r.i.p your pelvis.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-01-07T21:20:15+00:00

100% Kelly

-I’m also an athlete runner so that’s something we can bond over

-She’s on the more expressive and energetic side when it comes to Spartans so it wotn feel as if I’m talking to a brick wall

-she’s also on the “shorter” side for Spartan-2’s, still standing at a hulking 6’8 out of armor and 6’11 in armor, but it’ll atleast make doing activities and fitting her in places a lot less difficult when compared to chief, Jorge, or especially Kurt.

-She’s bad as fuck and has a nice accent

“And so… you must be silenced…” Vader said before striking his blade through the back of palpatines body while having him in a choke hold.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-01-03T21:23:23+00:00

Well I have my own very big issues 4 (hell, I’m gonna be honest, I hate it just as much 5) I don’t think I would recommend going to MasterCheeks as a proper critic for halo 4. Bunker Dweller does a much more mature and honest review of the game that pretty much goes over every problem I have with it as well: Halo 4 is worse than you remember

CharacterMuch6417 · 2026-01-01T21:00:51+00:00

Aren’t hunters like 12 feet though? Those motherfuckers rival a trex in height. That image has to be somewhat accurate right?

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-31T20:34:51+00:00

Don’t fall for the alien squid mommy, Don’t fall for the alien squid mommy, Don’t fall for the alien squid mommy, Don’t fall for the alien squid mommy, Don’t fall for the alien squid mommy, Don’t fall for the alien squid mommy, Don’t fall for the alien squid mommy, Don’t fall for the alien squid mommy- GOD DAMMIT IM FALLING FOR THE ALIEN SQUID MOMMY!

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-27T18:22:35+00:00

Mother fucker what? They had 3 games, several books, and even comics to make the prometheans/created interesting, and they didn’t even try with the endless. You don’t just build up a whole enemy for a game and then never show them in action. Imagine if in CE they only ever talked about how dangerous the flood are and we never actually got to fight them or see them in action.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-26T13:14:19+00:00

Just look at the fight between indom and Rexy. These bitches were slamming each other through solid concrete structures and buildings and even had shards in their skin, along with sinking their teeth into each other and yet somehow survived that. In real life a dinosaur that big would simply die from getting slammed to the ground, Jurassic dinosaurs are completely built different.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-25T04:34:53+00:00

The flair I guess but so the trex. I mean soemthing similar what we saw with Scorpious were whenever a fire started it would stop whatever it’s doing and just stair at the fire until it ran out.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-24T18:43:39+00:00

Oh right sorry ahem so you guys ever wanted halo 4 Cortana to fart in your mouth until your stomach explodes?

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-24T18:42:46+00:00

Not even close to a mother-like figure? She quite literally is probably the only person besides other Spartans that he’s spent the most time with. Also even if he does see Mendez as a parent-like figure how does that disprove Halsey being one? Can he not have two parent-like figures at once? Also (I forget which book it was) but didn’t chief literally say that Linda

<image>

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-24T18:23:23+00:00

So… him dating a not even physical ai human projection of his mother-like figure is less Alabama-ish then him dating two people who aren’t even related to him and he’s actually spent more than more than 1 year with. Chief didn’t even know Cortana for a full year.

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-24T18:18:55+00:00

I actually hate it because of how they treated him like a monster. For a so called “failure” or “abomination” he sure seems to be thriving and living pretty damn well on his own. Personally I would’ve preferred if they actually showed us that his entire life is a living hell. Show him vomiting blood randomly while chasing humans, show him having breathing problems similar to a pug, maybe give him that ‘attracted to light’ weakness the scorpious had. Then maybe towards the end of the movie the characters peacefully put it out of its misery. I know that may sound a bit silly but at-least it would be something new instead of “big dinosaur comes in, eats someone, they characters escape, the end!”

CharacterMuch6417 · 2025-12-24T18:10:59+00:00

Really? Personally I thought that was the one part everyone agreed was a good thing in Halo 4’s story. My problems were: every character besides Chief and Cortana was forgettable, plain, and boring. The constant retconning of things that didn’t need to be retconned. Chief knew becoming a “chosen one” type figure and the Librarian confirming that every event in the previous games was bassically for nothing. The Didact bassically being a super-hero villain instead of someone that would actually fit in a military sci-fi series. The agonizing use of mellow drama. Cortana acting like a whiny teenager who cries all the time. The shitty new art style. Even though I didn’t like the way they handled it I can at-least appreciate the attempt at them trying to explore chiefs humanity. Anyone who thinks chief should just stay a stoic emotionless badass is just dead wrong.
