[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] raganok99 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BIOHAZRED I agree, and the only reason the Marines on Halo can take so many bullets is because they are just that bad @$$.[/quote] That's game mechanics. It's not canon. Marines dies from a single plasma round or two in books. [/quote] True though normally if you where to shoot a human with plasma like that I would guess that wherever you got shot rather it the head, legs, torso, arms, etc; It would more than likely burn a massive hole through the area impacted. This being said the Marines are much stronger than a normal human. Remember this is a video game so you most likely wont expect or want it to be 100% Realistic. likewise My comment on the Marines being "Bad A**" was in some sense sarcasm because being "bad A**" Would not make you any more resistant to plasma in the first place. None the less the marines in Halo are "Bad a**" in general, especially in Halo 3:ODST. [Edited on 09.28.2012 12:07 PM PDT]
