What worries me is that there isn't going to be any ODSTs left in future Halo games. Everybody just seems to turn into a Spartan IV at this point.

That's not true at all.

the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.

That's not true at all.

My question is, why isn't becoming a Spartan-IV mandatory for all UNSC recruits? There's no reason not to, if they're so easily mass-produced.

-Augmentations are still incredibly expensive and MJOLNIR GEN2 still costs roughly the same as a Dropship. That's still expensive, and the UNSC's Economy is t exactly amazing post-war. Also, not ever soldier way want to be a spartan nor able to.

GEN2 still costs more than a drop ship. The description of Air Assault was referring to use by unaugmented personnel. That means standard Air Assault.

A Dropship for one soldier is still fucking expensive.

That's what I mean. That's just for an unaugmented person. The MJOLNIR variant is going to be even more expensive.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
kek.

Being trained to dehumanize enemies? You don't need to do that shit when the enmies are already not human.

You guys seriously think after 28 years of seeing all humans as allies and friends as we struggled against an entirely non-human enemy bent on our entire annihilation, you'd be able to classify humans as enemies, and have no moral qualms or doubts about fighting to destroy humans?

Shit, you guys even realize the majority of soldiers joined the UNSC to fight the Covenant and save humanity, Quite frankly, they had no intent to kill humans. Mickey included.
Now, I don't follow the lore at that deeply, and quite frankly I find Halo's timeline to all kinds of jacked up, but did the insurrectionists just stop being a thing when the covies entered the picture or something? If I remember right, they had some pretty significant numbers.

They were still a thing, but they were more concerned with fighting the Covenant than the UNSC for obvious reasons.

They were still active, but for the most part, they just went into hiding and stopped doing such blatant attacks against the UNSC.

Which meant the UNSC had no need to go after them, and basically ignored the insurrection.

And as seen in FuD, New Blood and Cole Protocol, insurrectionists fought alongside the UNSC against the Covenant a lot of the time.

No. Mickey just didn't do anything to help him.

It's not like it's completely unjustified. The UNSC aren't all rainbows and sunshine you know.

Exactly, but every time I try mentioning that the conflict between the UNSC and the Insurrection is more gray vs grey than black vs white, somebody jumps down my throat about it. It's irritating.
