Create your Spartan Ops Squad!

With the game just a smidge over a month from release, we’re getting close to getting our collectively grubby hands all over it!

So, just for fun, why not see how everyone would design their Spartan Ops squad? In this scenario, imagine you get to create three AI loadouts and then a loadout for the Spartan you’d play. Of course, feel free to swap out AI loadouts for any friends that you’ve determined to go through Spartan Ops with.

Here’s the format- What’s your Squad?

SQUAD NAME:

SPARTAN NAME:
SPARTAN ROLE: (I.E. are they like a sniper, team leader, vehicles specialist, what?)
PRIMARY WEAPON:
SECONDARY WEAPON:
GRENADE TYPE:
ARMOR ABILITY:
TACTICAL PACKAGE:
SUPPORT UPGRADE:
CHARACTER BACKGROUND: (Optional)

^^^Create one of the above for each Spartan in your squad^^^

NOTE: Here’s a link to a thread that has the various loadout pieces and descriptions therein. Don’t feel you have to limit yourself to the matchmaking loadout weapons: Take the entire sandbox into consideration!

HALO 4 LOADOUT OPTIONS

I think really it’s going to be like this without the Ai bots.

Spartan Op team.

  1. You.
  2. Random: Mr. Jumpy McTrigger Finger. The ground and walls never knew what hit em.
  3. Random. Sergeant Stand Still. He’s guarding the rear while making a sandwich.
  4. Random. Larry the Lulz. He’s making sure you hate humanity while he betrays you over and over.

SPARTAN NAME: Kane A005

You’ll be playing Solo on Spartan Ops?

SQUAD NAME: Anyone got any ideas? Obviously it should be bird-themed, but a one-word adjective (ie, Noble, Majestic, etc. etc. etc.)
Squad History: These four worked so well together throughout training that they were compiled into a squad. All four have large amounts of combat experience and many minor injuries. They go by code-names rather than actual names for personal preferrence.

SPARTAN NAME: Hawk 342
SPARTAN ROLE: Attack
PRIMARY WEAPON: Battle Rifle
SECONDARY WEAPON: Magnum
GRENADE TYPE: Fragmentation
ARMOR ABILITY: Thruster Pack
TACTICAL PACKAGE: Shielding
SUPPORT UPGRADE: Ammo
CHARACTER BACKGROUND: Aggressive and hot-tempered, making him a possible threat to stealth missions but highly useful in the open battlefield.

SPARTAN NAME: Eagle 347
SPARTAN ROLE: Sniper
PRIMARY WEAPON: Sniper
SECONDARY WEAPON: Carbine
GRENADE TYPE: Pulse
ARMOR ABILITY: Active Camo
TACTICAL PACKAGE: Firepower
SUPPORT UPGRADE: Awareness
CHARACTER BACKGROUND: Cautious and eagle-eyed, which, coupled with her outstanding aim, make her supporting sniper roll invaluable. She can at times be over-cautious, however.

SPARTAN NAME: Vulture 375
SPARTAN ROLE: Team Leader, Driver
PRIMARY WEAPON: Assualt Rifle
SECONDARY WEAPON: Battle Rifle
GRENADE TYPE: Fragmentation
ARMOR ABILITY: Promethean Vision
TACTICAL PACKAGE: Firepower
SUPPORT UPGRADE: Sensor
CHARACTER BACKGROUND: By-the-books and impeccably loyal, he typically stays back from the battle but will always fly to his team’s aid if necessary.

SPARTAN NAME: Falcon 316 (me–but not necessarily my actual skills/personality/background :D)
SPARTAN ROLE: Jack of All Trades (but favors vehicles)
PRIMARY WEAPON: Carbine
SECONDARY WEAPON: Plasma Pistol
GRENADE TYPE: Plasma
ARMOR ABILITY: Jetpack or Regen depending on map
TACTICAL PACKAGE: Wheelman
SUPPORT UPGRADE: Stealth
CHARACTER BACKGROUND: A personality balance between Eagle and Hawk, he is an outstanding pilot, driver, and marksmen, but better in small, stealth missions than large scale battles when no vehicles are available.

I have no idea if any of those numbers are taken or even make sense, I just made them up lol

just realized that Zealot Elite in Gold actually reminds me of a Zealot in Starcraft :slight_smile:

SPARTAN NAME: Etrius 049
SPARTAN ROLE: Lone Wolf
PRIMARY WEAPON: Carabine/light rifle/DMR (most probably dmr)
SECONDARY WEAPON: Plasma Pistol
GRENADE TYPE: plasma
ARMOR ABILITY: Thruster Pack
TACTICAL PACKAGE: Shielding
SUPPORT UPGRADE: Stability
CHARACTER BACKGROUND: I am soloing spartan Ops

SQUAD NAME:HIGHTIDE

SPARTAN NAME:Jack 221
SPARTAN ROLE:sniper
PRIMARY WEAPON:sniper/LR
SECONDARY WEAPON:LR/magnum
GRENADE TYPE:frag
ARMOR ABILITY:Auto semtry
TACTICAL PACKAGE:AA EFFICIENCY
SUPPORT UPGRADE:STABILITY
CHARACTER BACKGROUND:Under private training of Linda 058 any further information in restricted to ONI personel only

Falcon Squad (wow that totally sounds badass)

Name: Eric-057
Role: Squad Leader
Preferred weapons: BR95 Heavy Barrel Service Rifle/MA5D Individual Combat Weapon System (ICWS).
Grenades: Frags
Armor Ability: Thruster Pack
Tactical Package: Firepower
Support Upgrade: Dexterity

Short Bio: Solid under pressure, excellent leadership skills. Inspires those around him to do more than they thought they were capable of (including non Spartan Personal). Definitely loyal to the cause but uses unorthodox methods to accomplish mission goals. Respects the chain of command but occasionally questions orders. This insubordination is overlooked due to the fact that his methods have resulted in a mission success rate of 100%. The rest of FALCON would follow him into hell itself. We need morel leaders like 057 if we are going to win this thing. Luckily for us, he’s on our side.

Name: Rosemary-056
Role: Sniper/Reconnaissance
Preferred Weapons: Sniper Rifle System 99-Series 5 Anti Materiel/M6H Personal Defense Weapon System
Grenades: Frags
Armor Ability: Promethean Vision
Tactical Package: Mobility
Support Upgrade: Sensor

Short Bio: Not the first choice command would have wanted in a Spartan Operations taking place in the highly volatile environment of Requiem. Thanks to the recommendations made by 057, 056 would remain in FALCON despite concerns of the Spartans mental state. Lone Wolf tendencies have caused trouble in the past. Despite this, she has a knack for intelligence gathering, which is a boon to the team. Her skill with Sniper Rifles are unmatched even among the elite Spartan sharpshooters aboard the Infinity. Del Rio might not like it but this is war and we’ll do whatever it takes to win.

Name: Alex-055
Role: Heavy Weapons/Wheelman
Preferred Weapons: M6 Grindell/Galilean Non-Linear Rifle/MA5D Individual Combat Weapon System
Grenades: Plasma Grenades
Armor Ability: Z-90 Photonic Coalesance Emitter/Aegis
Tactical Package: Wheelman
Support Upgrade: Gunner

Short Bio: The newest addition to FALCON. Fresh out of graduation, very young but eager to serve. Losing 086 in a past ops hit the team hard, no doubt that 055 has his work cut out for him. First impressions by team suggests that he will fit in quite well. Remarkably resilient and surprisingly social among non Spartan Personal, we are glad to have him aboard the Infinity. His expertise and skill in the usage of vehicles was a trait carried over before the augmentation process. 056 skill in dismantling said machinery is equally potent.

Name: Lia-054
Role: Marksman/Medic
Preferred Weapons: M395 Designated Marksman Rifle/Z-110 Directed Energy Pistol
Grenades: Frags
Armor Ability: Regen Field
Tactical Package: AA Efficiency
Support Upgrade: Ammo

Short Bio: A native to Earth, she was recruited from the thousands of poor districts that cover the planet. Luckily, she made it all the through and is now FALCON’s Marksman and a Medic rolled into one. Very quiet, doesn’t socialize much even amongst the team. However, her discipline on and off the field is commendable. Talks just enough to communicate with the team to accomplish mission goals. Since her introduction to FALCON, none of the other members return from an OPS with barely a scratch on them; a testament to 054’s extensive knowledge in the medical field no doubt. Curiously, 054 tends to bring more ammo than it is needed for any mission.

I put a lot of work into this, enjoy ^.^

Oh, I’m aware there won’t be AI players. Personally, I think it would’ve been a good move for those of us who prefer not having other players around, whilst still wanting to feel like part of a squad.

So instead, I’m just using this thread for people to have fun creating their own squads. ^^

SQUAD NAME: Legion team

MY SPARTAN NAME: Aaron
SPARTAN ROLE: Sniper/Scout

CHARACTER BACKGROUND: Enlisted in the UNSC early at the age of 16 in the Human-Covenant War, eventually climbed the ranks to captain at about 21 and led his own squad. His squad was one of the best, always got their missions done quick and clean, they only ever had one casualty. Aaron was devastated, fell into a depression for a couple months, then saw that ONI was recruiting for the Spartan IV program, he was one of the first to enlist, vowing to make it up to his fallen squadmate. He is now an elite Sniper for Legion team. Years in the military has made him somewhat paranoid, he always carries a trusty shotty even with his skills as a crack sniper, he believes that an enemy will always be within close proximity.

SECONDARY WEAPON: Magnum
GRENADE TYPE: Fragmentation
ARMOR ABILITY: Regen Field
