ODST's Vs Spartans
I've been playing Halo Wars over the year with Halo 3 and I just came up with an idea of who is the better soldier.
ODST (Orbital Drop Shock Troopers) or the Spartans?
Fancy a fight together to see which is the UNSC's best soldiers.

A Spartan II is better. Master Chief accidentally killed a few ODST's while training, that being said, if Spartan II's and ODST's were to engage in actually combat, the Spartans would win hands down.
-
I'm pretty sure Chief took out 3 or 4 ODSTs when he was a kid still.
-
ODST's are amazing but if youve been playing halo wars surely youve seen the spartans take on those elite honour guards near the end, i mean they were doing front flips and all sorts..
-
ODSTs would die. Spartans are biologiclly egineered supersoldiers, and ODSTs are actually regular marines. simple science

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] I Pvt WarHead I Spartans would win HANDS DOWN, they are WAAAY strong!!, but ODST earn my respect because there just normal special forces troops facing waves of enemies a spartan would , yet they still manage to kick ASS!! ODST FTW !!![/quote]Nah, in any game, if you're controlling a character, the character is going to come out on top, since the players are smarter than AIs. So I just go by the book, since it does tell you that John killed & brutally injured 3 or 4 ODSTs at once.

Master Chief, without his armor, took out 3 or 4 ODSTs in a boxing ring. If you're talking about weapon fight, then they'd all be allowed to use their armor, in which case, the Spartan can walk right up & hug you to death. That would actually be very scary if you think about it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BenignPick7 ODSTs are better because they drop from orbit into high danger areas with only their armor and weapons to help them, spartans take warthogs and have technologically amplified armor and traits[/quote] Are you mentally backwards? You're saying ODSTs are better because they drop from orbit, implying they're better because they're not as efficient. [I]Sigh...[/I] Seeing this forum get cluttered with retards is getting quite painful.

I can't believe this thread has been going on for like 2 years. Crazy. But Spartans, because they're stronger, faster, and better trained.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Fr0sTm4n3Matt If it's Spartan Vs. ODST the Spartan has the Armor & Shield advantage but all in all it comes down to the idividuals themselves, because if the ODST was seasoned and the Spartan was new blood the ODST would be able to outmenuever the Spartan with ease, also vice versa. Simply put its all a matter of luck, skill, and experience. But as equals the Spartan trumps the ODST simply because of the Armor/Shields.[/quote] A "new" Spartan would be aged 6. Blue Team were fresh out of combat training when they were assigned an infiltration mission on a rebel base highly protected because Robert Watts was there. They killed most of the rebels there without MJOLNIR armour. No ODST could outmanoeuvre a Spartan "with ease". That's a moronic statement as Spartans are put through a torturous training program on physical and mental abilities, ODSTs receive no such training. Nor do they receive augmentations that make their bones near indestructible, allow them to see in darkness naturally and "slow down time" as a result of their vastly superior reflexes. ODSTs do not stand a chance. Blue Team ran a field test where a group of highly trained Marines were in power armour and the Spartans in jumpsuits. The Spartans won without contest. Anyone who believes that an ODST can beat a genetically enhanced super-soldier needs to see a doctor because there is no logic nor evidence of an ODST doing so or even coming close. And yet there is plenty of scenarios where Spartans have beaten ODSTs...

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] VautlingFrog [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ZundayXx But still. Spartans > ODST's. Spartans have WAY more combat training, WAY better equipment, Shields, Higher stamina, more melee power. Everything is better on them, thats why they're advanced infantry...[/quote] ODSTs are regular Marine infantry that request to be put into the ODST training program. They already have actual combat experience under their belts before they even begin their ODST training. Honestly they have about the same amount of training. Spartans are no more skilled than an ODST. The armor they wear however gives them a huge advantage over an ODST. With out the armor they are no better soldiers than the rest of humanity. But to prevent hard feelings about my opinion I give you this: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3jFTzhdZF4&feature=channel]Link[/url][/quote] Um, the Spartans have been trained since the age of 6 or 7, and the augmentation increased their strength, speed, and stamina.

[quote]Holy -blam!- are you pre-pubesents really fighting over this? "Yeah the Spartans are better but the ODST's win in awesomeness" - Virgin ODST's are trained marines that go [u]threw[/u] more training to become ODST's. They have specialized armor and are pretty rigorous. Which Spartans are we talking about now? I, II or III's? I'm guessing II because you kids are to busy discovering -blam!-ion and wiping the cooties off your noodle arms to read books, also books are lame right? Spartan II's were kid napped at the age of 6 after searching for preferred genetics. They were taken [u]threw[/u] years of training, and genetic enhancements that killed [u]most[/u] half of them in the process. They were given armor with shield enhancements that we know [u]threw[/u] multiplayer can be taken out by a single gun. Now, single Spartan vs. Single ODST? If ambushed the Spartan could be taken out, who knows. It would take a lot from the ODST. Now the Spartans are numbered in the tens, and the ODST's are numbered in the unknown amounts. Spartan's would obviously lose. Who's cooler? What are we 5? Well, the forum does censor us from cursing, those -blam!- cockbites. Now someones going to make fun of me for calling some of you virgins and then posting this wall of test about the Halo Universe.[/quote] Lol at you for making fun of people being younger than you when you can't use correct grammar...

I'd say ODSTs, but only just. Let's face it, they do a very similar job to SPARTANS... But without the... . armour . training . biological enhancements . superb weaponry & other equipment That first point is one of the things that I liked the most about ODST, your character just seemed more...human, due to the lack of shields, MJLONIR armour & so on... the ODST could die (SPARTANS can I know, but alot less often than ODSTs) and so the risk to the character was greater... And despite that, the ODST still did a job that may well have required a SPARTAN.
-
This really isn't a fair fight. SPARTANs are biologically enhanced and trained from around 6 or 7ish. In the fall of reach John won a fight when he was a teenager against three ODSTs. However I don't believe there's ever a scenario where they'd fight to the death. However ODST troops seem to match a SPARTAN's courage and (almost) their accuracy.
-
ODSTs are pretty badass but spartans would probably win just cuz of their advanced training and equipment
-
if you did a little more research than just reading half of an article you would know they are genetically enhanced
-
If John could accidentally kill 5 ODST's as a kid only using his fists, imagine a platoon of ODSTs verses 5 Spartans. There will be a lot of dead ODSTs. [Edited on 07.05.2011 9:11 AM PDT]
