Summary:
Orbital Drop Troopers like the ODSTs in Halo.
Benefits:
Give marines a small mobility boost and they can be used to help marines in trouble.
Details:
These ODTs can be used to aid marines who are encircled, provide backup, etc. They can also be used to balance out the Aliens and Marines because now the marines have the ability to drop troops where ever they want provided they have placed a beacon.
Implementation:
Additions to the Sulaco to provide for the pods needed and/or could be sent via distress call.

Re: Orbital Drop Troopers
I'm not sure what to say about this. It seems stupid but it could also really powerful if used right. Probably will kill alot of marines if they put the beacon near a wall and they land on it.

The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.

Re: Orbital Drop Troopers
It was already suggested. It's not gonna to happen, because it's totally out of lore.

Re: Orbital Drop Troopers
Agreed, Though the pods could have the ability to break walls to fix that problem, But knowing marines they will end up killing themselves with it.coolsurf6 wrote:I'm not sure what to say about this.

Re: Orbital Drop Troopers
Lore wise, Ravengers should not be able to face-hug. Also why wouldn't an advance humanity that has similar tech to the UNSC from Halo not have Orbital Shock Troopers?Jeser wrote:It was already suggested. It's not gonna to happen, because it's totally out of lore.

-1 It's not going to happen. The dev team deemed it too far from the lore to implement.
