Does he have PTVD caused by some horrifying experience in battle or even something involving family deaths? Or do you think he just prefers not to talk? If so, then why does he prefer not to talk? Anti-Social? Let's hear some possibilities. Be creative.

He's secretly a machine built by the UNSC to further improve on the Spartan Project and isn't programmed to speak because he would sound like Microsoft Sam. Like Robocop but not from the 1900s. [b]Obviously.[/b]
-
His mic has been turned off and doesn't realize it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] EpicFailMan50 His mic has been turned off and doesn't realize it. [/quote]ROFL. He was probably trying to chat with his teammates the whole time.
-
He thinks he can use telepathy
-
He saw Mickey and Dutch making -blam!- love and was shocked into not talking.
-
he has no lower jaw

The rookie doesn't talk because bungie wanted you to shape the way the character is...if they made him talk they would have created a personality but instead to get people more into the game they made him speechless which makes you add a personality to him the way you play the game.....look at nintendo link is speechless, mario samus sometimes

I'm pretty sure we all know that. That's why I said, [b]be creative[/b]. If you look at the above posts, this thread is obviously intended towards creating creative responses of why he doesn't talk. Not the real reason.
-

-

-

He has taken a vow of silence. Cookie for reference!
-
He has decided that if he is silent then people will listen to each other more, meaning that he can work well with each other. Or going along with him never taking his helmet off, he got shot in the jaw and now cannot speak momentarily because his jaw is wired shut.

Maybe everyone muted him after all those moans he makes when he takes damage.
-
maybe his ears are off and he doesnt realize it and he doesnt think anybody is talking to him cause he cant see their lips move
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] rednax700 his jaw is wired shut.[/quote] That would look very creepy.

He doesn't speak english! Due budget cuts the UNSC is hiring illigal immigrants now.
-
because buck and dare never gave him permission to speak
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] gazman2 because buck and dare never gave him permission to speak[/quote] Dare did, in one of the cutscenes of Datahive, Dare asks the Rookie: "What was your name again?". But he didn't answer because Dare orderd him to come in after hearing a sound down the tunnel. The cutscene: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86hfV5IMPb4[/url] [Edited on 08.29.2011 1:32 PM PDT]

He is doing a sponsered silence but no-one knows he exists.

SHE doesnt talk, because of a vow she took while she was child after her parents were killed by an elite, she then turned to the UNSC. Idk, I am not the creative type.
