If you compare the two, you'll see even a Nano-suit 1 would defeat a Spartan II (though it would be an uber-close fight). Armour: The MJOLNIR armour is made of titanium-A, a hyper-dense, yet light weight alloy designed to resist 2000 degree celsius and massive amounts of force (aprox. 1500 newtons of force) as well as shields comprised of a plasma window, with a wall of lasers underneath, then electron aligned carbon fiber nanotubes N2 is comprised of three layers. One is a skin tight suit of carbon fiber nano tubes (the strongest element known to man and the primary strength of Halos energy shields)and bullet resistant, shock absorbant gel that also controls the users body temprature. After this comes a layer of Coltan-Titabnium, a modified titanium alloy thats stronger, yet lighter than standred titanium. Coltan titanium is also infused with nano-machines which repair it and and is abosbant of radiation, thus protecting the user from all but the heaviest of radiological attacks. The exterior of the suit is comprised of self repairing, semi-organic Carbon fiber nanotubes, reinforced with Coltan-titanium and carbo-platinum (A Carbon-fiber nano-tube reinforced, nano machine enhanced, self repairing platinum alloy) The suit is enhanced by Armour mode, which re-directs energy to the suits outer armor, tightening the nano-tubes and providing aditional bullet deflection and protection, as well as increasing energy to life-support and suit-repair functions. The suit is also more resistant to super-heated plasma weapons, MJOLNIR is. While Titanium-A and energy sheilds are weak to the 3000 degrees celsuis tempratures of plasma weapons, carbon fiber nano tubes in real life are resistant to nearly 4500 degrees, far more than the plasma based weapons can produce. Armor winner: Nano-suit 2 Speed: Unfortunatly unbalance for MJOLNIR, as the Nano-suits has an entire suit mode devoted to speed. While the fastest speed acheived on a regular basis by a Spartan equiped with MJOLNIR is 75 KM/H by Kelly-087 and the fastest speed ever acheived was 105 Km/H by John-117 during the MJOLNIR-MK.V test. The N2 on the other hand, has a standered sprint speed of 75 KM/H and a top speed (in small 3-5 second bursts) of close 300 KM/H, easily beating MJOLNIR. In terms of rection time the Spartans are still outmatched. While MCPO Mendez reports that Spartans in MJOLNIR can react at 0.20 millisecinds, the N2 has a twitch reflex/reaction time of 0.08 milliseconds, much faster than the MJLONIR armor. Winner: Nano-Suit Strenth: Ah, finally, a real battle! MJLONIR goes first. Put simply, Spartans are beats. Cyberneticly modefied beasts to be exact. Capable of lifting three times there own body weight with out MJLONIR equiped (aprox. 1000 pounds or 450 KG), this load in MJLONIR is increased by a factor of five. Five thousand pounds. almost two and a half short tons. Unfoutunatly for longtime Halo fans like myself, N2 is back and better than ever. While no exact strenth is stated in game or on the Crysis website or the Crysis wikia, the N2 is capable of kicking a 2 ton taxi cab almost 10 feet into the air and twenty feet forward, with enough force to smash an 9 inch thick concrete wall. Winner:N2 Powerplant: A complicated matter, as the Nano-suit has no powerplant, yet technically has one anyways. The Mjolnir armor uses an advanced Fusion power-plant, cabable of powering a Scorpion tank runing at full capacity for almost ten years straight, yet small enough to fit in the palm of a Spartan (aprox. six by six inchs in size), the only known atachment to activly cause the plant to near overload when used too long is armour lock, which can only be used for fifteen seconds before fusion power plant overload. The plant can also power the suit for close to fifteen years of continiuse use. The N2 activly collects energy on the other hand, and is pretty good at it too. cabable of collecting energy from thermal (heat in the air, sunlight, the operators body heat), radiological (the small amount of radiation that always surrounds us, radiation souces like powerplans and items containing akaline metals) carbon (rtting bodys and other decomposing organisms, the users dying skin tissues and hair and feces are also broken down into carbon and converted ito energy) and kinetic (the users movement), as well as the bio-electricty of the user and other living beings around him/her. However, the suit energy is quickly drained by continuse strenous activity though in canon it has less energy drain than that seen in games). The MJLONIR fusion plant however is continuse energy all the time Winner: MJLONIR, though be warned: as the suit consumes radiation, if the spartan gets too close to the user, the suit will consume the energy given off by the spartan's fusion plant, allowing the N2 user to have unlimited energy Visor: MJOLNIR has a highly advanced HMD (Head Mounted Display) , as well as thermal, night vision and five times optical zoom and a hardened uplink capable of intercepting nearly any radio bbased signal, allowing for unprecedented communications. The MJOLNIR armor system can also protect the user from breathing in objects as small as 900 nanometers and uses selcetive hearing "a pin drop in a sandstorm" The N2 on the otherhand, uses "Nano-vision" a thermal-night vision hybrid that allows for 3D imagry, something no other night-vision unit, even that of MJOLNIR is capable of. N2 also supports a more advanced HMD and an automatic read out of the suit and users status, as well as a smaller and stronger visor (MJOLNIR is comprised of super-hartdend acrylic glass, while the N2 uses see-through Carbon fiber Nano-tubes). The N2 also has 60 times zoom and the ability to augument the users eyes using naomachines, allowing them to see in the dark and double the users visual perception. The N2 can also protect against viruses, bacteria and gases as small as 500 nano-meters (which are then broken down into carbon and used to power the suit), as well as allow the user to hear a whispered conversation from almost five hundred feet away and is cabable of intercepting almost 6000 lines of communictaion, far more than MJOLNIR. Winner:N2 AI: Cortana vs SECOND. Oh, this is gonna be good! Cortana strikes first, with sentience. far more advanced (according to Halo:Reach, ten times so) then her nearest Smart-AI competitor, Cortana is constantly busy and is a hacker only matched by Forerunner AI, SECOND and EDI from Mass Effect 2. Funny, sexy and smart, Cortana is always usefull to have around (sorry, i couldn't much info on her tech). SECOND is a non-sentient AI implanted in an N2 users head when they first aquire the suit. This AI latter become sentient due to its absorbtion of the DNA of former operative Prophet. SECOND is cabable of running a 1.5 BIPS (twenty time faster than the largest and most powerful super-computer today). Being inplanted in the users head, SECOND can also control hormone levels in the users head, make an N2 operator incabable of feeling fear, pain or failure, as well as operate as a suplimentry nervous system incase the user's is damaged, making the user invulnerable parylisis and even direct barin tramua. Winner: unknown, insefficient data on the part of Cortana Overall winner: Nanosuit 2[/quote] Nanosuit 2 sounds a lot like a massive Gary Stu in armour form. Also, gameplay wise, you get maybe THREE SECONDS of life once someone starts shooting you with even a standard issue assault rifle. MJOLNIR gives far longer... to the point of entire clips of small arms fire being just fatal, and it also assumes the accuracy of the weilder of said weapons is 100%. One of the Crysis 2 trailers shows Alcatraz surviving a tank round to the shoulder... but it doesn't explode. I'm sure MJOLNIR could do the same. And John DOES punch a missile, which then EXPLODES right next to him. He nearly dies as a result, but the armour keeps him alive. And 300km/h? That's way too fast for a human to move... almost to the point of physical impossibility. your legs would almost rip off the rest of your body... and you'd certainly lose a tendon.[/quote] [/quote] You realize that Carbon Fiber Nano tubes far out class Titanium right? Even Titanium A could not withstand superheated plasma. [/quote] 1) Titanium A=/=Titanium. Its Titanium super-hardened on a molecular level 2) But with all the same physical properties of Titanium, just buffed. Titanium is not good at reflecting heat. Where MJOLNIR is concerned thats where the shields come in. And everything we know of the N2 suit comes from the game. So we cannot make any assumptions beyond what is represented.I actually remember fan criticism over how the N1 was superior to the N2. Plus the mere fact the N2 can fall to basically any kind of round without armor mode (a highly hindering and energy consuming function) at all gives MJOLNIR a huge defensive advantage.[/quote] I have to make assumptions based on the game due to there being no cannon sources other than the developers themselves. I would like to point out that the shields you speak so highly of and the outer layer of the N2 are made of the same thing (Nanotubes) I would also like to point out that the N2 is able to resist repeated blasts from Revenant sized plasma weapons game, which leads me to assume it is more heat resistant than MJOLNIR. But in the end, you are right. This is a pointless discussion, as there is no cannon source for advocates of the Nanosuit to call on.
