Commander Palmer

Anyone else thinks she is cocky? I don't like her.

  • I don't really have an opinion on her, seeing as she is just a generic "tough female" character'.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] randomrosso [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Mythical Wolf I don't get why she's in the ship doing nothing when she's a spartan. Shouldn't she be on the ground fighting just like every other spartan?[/quote] [b]Commander [/b]Palmer. I would only imagine that she'd be on the ground in special circumstances. [/quote] Noble 1 was fine giving orders while killing elites.

  • Why do I get the feeling people hate her just because she's new and not exactly like a "better" previous character.

[/quote][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJe6CuVXLE8]To be fair, Johnson's first line in CE was pretty epic.[/url]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] spartan 112 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Skulblaka She's badass, pretty much the new Sergeant Johnson.[/quote]She sounds like she is trying too hard to be a badass. Thats the difference between her and Johnson. Johnson survived the first halo god only knows how. Comes out of that mess only to be thrown back in there on Delta Halo. When he is there he's one of the only people to survive the lift up to the Library. Stands against an opponent that has slaughtered through 100's of Marines in it's life time. Gets captured by The Covenant only to fight his way to freedom (with the help of the Arbiter I suppose) Hijacks a Scarab which is something the Chief hasn't even done and uses expert Marksman skills to repeatedly hit a VERY FAST moving target with a Beam rifle from 100m away. In Halo 3 he makes it back to Earth and leads an Op to go find your sorry ass. Finds you, tries to Evac before his pelican gets shot down so he is captured once again. You free him. He then starts rigging up a -blam!- nuke underground by himself while 3 soldiers defend the post. The Position is taken he retreats. Personally spearheads ground forces in Battle of Voi. Guy gets captured and still doesn't do what the Covenant want him to. Gets beat by aliens 2 his size and 3 times as wide. Getting out of there he then takes command of an ENTIRE frigate himself to march upto Halo himeself while everyone save 2 others -blam!- the -blam!- out. Then that almighty Son of a -blam!- uses a Weapon designed to take out vehicles to take out individual combat forms. Then he dies trying to activate the ring. Sarah Palmer has done nothing but -blam!-ed throughout the campaign. TL:DL Sarah is outclassed in every way by Johnson.[/quote]Johnson's had an entire trilogy to do what he does. Let's just wait.

  • She makes my Johnson want to salute her. But seriously, she does come off as a -blam!-.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BerzerkCommando I think she's kinda hot. I wouldn't mind crash landing my Pillar of Autumn into her Installation. But I better be careful not to unless the Infection. Once that happens there's no stopping it unless you activate the Halo array. [/quote] If you wear a thick combat suit you should be alright. lol

  • She's just any old cliche character. Just like the other two UNSC people in H4, they're so unforgettable I can't even remember their names and I finished playing the Campaign half an hour ago.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] GodZillla [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] old bad dog I think she's rude and self-absorbed, and honestly I don't want to see much of her. I don't like the Spartan-IV's in general, they don't have anywhere near the same level of capability that the II's and III's had. Spartan-II's grew up shooting insurrectionists. Chances are, the Spartan-IV's grew up normally and later just joined the UNSC at 18, where they eventually were just picked and augmented and given better tactics.[/quote] i dont like the spartan IV's either ...i was immediately put off but the immaturity of the squad in spartan ops ...the way that john and the other spartan ii's were portrayed in FUD was exactly how I imagined they would be as far as palmer specifically, she was flirting with the chief , imo as a plot device shes made to be immune to male -blam!-ity to have her appear strong and masculine, and only with the chief do you see this slightly tested ...im sure as a spartan she would want an opportunity to compete with him and maybe as a female she wants his attention as well [/quote]She, like all Spartan-IV's, has quite the legacy to live up to. The higher ranking you are, the more people depend on you and the more pressure there is. John, the single greatest Hero of Humanity, is a natural-born leader who's gone to Heaven, Hell, Purgatory, Limbo (and any other Plains of Existence) and back. There's just no beating that. The only other solution besides breaking down and worshiping him as a god (which is against protocol and humility) is to level with him. Sarcasm is one way to do it.
