That, and it makes the Spartan IV's seem pretty juvenile. The Spartan II's (and even III's to a lesser extent) had those similar enhancements, but didn't have the whole "Imma so superior to all y'all!" vibe that Palmer seems to reflexively project.

I do find the Spartan IVs seen thus far childish and overconfident for being Spartans. They openly taunt the Covenant whereas the Spartan IIs and Spartan IIIs would not, even if it is a single grunt they do not underestimate the Covenant.

The behavior of the IV's irritated me too and its the sort of cheesy, boarder line, comic relief you expect from the marine grunts but its likely just some attempt to make them more likable but I like to think that its because the II's where raised from children to show absolute discipline.

Some Spartan IVs are experience however, Palmer (no matter how much we hate her), she used to be an ODST therefore she must have a lot of experience and is well trained. ODSTs are picked from Special Forces Groups from all military so there is a lot of experience there. Some Spartan IVs team may have been together even when they were in regular military. Example of which is Spartan Team Crimson, I notice this when I was playing Spartan Ops Legendary on Episode 4 Mission 2: Rally point. A Marine jumped into my Warthog and mentioned, "Remember me, we fought together on Voi" if you remember on Halo 3. Voi was the location of the Ark. So Crimson Team most likely an advance force of Marines or were formally an ODST team during the time. Pretty much the only Spartan IV team I respect is Crimson, not because I play them because it was noted by many characters by how strong they were. Spartan Team Kodiak mentioned it was an honor to work with them on Episode 8 mission 2: Majestic Rescue as well Team Lancer had admiration for Team Crimson on Mission 3: Lancer. Also, most Spartan IV teams have a total of either 5 or 6 member while Crimson holds the lowest at 4. Last edited by ReaperxKingx; 2013-06-08 at 12:30. |

About the Spartan IIs yes, there were more special and had the genes to excel thus no other Spartan Program can ever hope to achieve what they done. What I was going upon is that the Spartan IVs should be trained or have a hard training of that of the Spartan IIIs. The Spartan IVs appear to be marines with medical procedures and armor, most of them appear not discipline and seems to feel like cowboys on a horse attitude. |

spartan 4 main bit is numbers quantity not quality the main problem with spartan 2 and 3 they do not want effective soldiers 20 years from now they want them now. as in today not years from now spartan 2 had to wait years before an effective soldier was made first initial training, then augmentations then the more intense training this process takes years too many years.
spartan 4 allows for super soldiers at less the time all the need is the augmentations
