> So, I just watched the Halo 4 Panel and this thought popped into my head. With Halo: Reach we were able to have our Character be either male or Female, in multiplayer and Campaign. It was nice hearing characters say “She’s here” and “I’ve heard about her” and there’s something Special about when carter says “Emile go with her…That AI chose you, it made the right choice”. Granted John-117 is Iconic to Halo, but I’d love to see a game where you can choose Gender, or have another strong female character outside of Cortana to run along side MC or to be badass on her own, like some of the female Spartan II’s and III’s or ODST. Just a thought.
For co-op Campaign:
Player 1 = Master Chief.
Player 2-4 = Another Spartans (male or female setup).

That’s tricky. Trying to fit another Spartan into this story would be tricky, and making one that is non-canon purely for co-op yet have a customizable gender would seem like a lot of effort for something not even influencing the story.

HO nononononononooo. Kat was naggy, annoying, and a terrible driver, nononononononooooo.

This I hate Kat, know Linda/kelly on the otherhand (after they explain how she escapes onyx) would work.

that’s where we’ll have to disagree. All the AI sucks at driving, Kat was incredibly intelligent, fun to listen to, and was integral in Noble team.
> Canonically noble 6 is a male with default armor and color, just saying.
you mean “default-ly” Just saying. My noble six, canonically, is female with red armor with various pieces of equipment inculding helmets, shoulder pads, wrists, toros pieces, helmets, and even a prostetic arm once to match ehr sister Kat.
/blwon your mind is.

I heard that Kelly is still alive, if that’s the case I’d be all for her making an appearance in Halo 4, she was pretty BA. And it’s not like Halo was completely lacking in main female characters, in the MC saga we saw quite a bit of Miranda Keyes and Cortana. But we only see like 5 main human characters and the rest of the main characters are covenant, and to be honest have you ever seen a female covenant in the Halo games? I’m pretty sure they aren’t even in the covenant army at all.
> I mean in the halo story universe, in halo 3 you can make your spartan have female sounds but chief isn’t a female.
Yeah that’s Chief, I’m talking about Noble 6 who’s Gender is up to the player. I never asked for Chief to be a woman, just that there’s an awesoem woman who’s not just an AI kicking -Yoink- and tkaing names with him, or that in the ODST games they mentioned they’re doing, let us play a female ODST like Dare. Moar females kicking -Yoink- please this is the 26th century after all.
I never said you shouldn’t be able to, just saying in the halo story line he is a boy.
Also about co-op people being their own spartans, that is fine imo, just cause it aint cannon doesn’t really matter because co-op doesn’t affect canon. Ex. Im pretty sure there aren’t 2 mc’s in halo ce or 2 and arbiter isn’t always with you in halo 3. So it should include a female for campaign co-op and mm in halo 4. As for a real story female character it is possible i guess, I believe one of the 3 halo wars spartans is a female and they might encounter chief.
That’d be cool, or like it was suggested earlier that some of the existing Spartan 3’s (and Halsey) might make a return from Onyx and join MC (wouldn’t it be cool if Legandary planet was Onyx btw?) then they could be badass in the Gameslike they are in the Novels.
> > They can’t just change John’s gender, that would be completely ridiculous and stupid.
>
> thats so true, you finished the fight as a male, BANG halo 4 your a chick? what did Chief got gender change surgery when he was sleeping?
Why yes, She did. That voice going “Chief! Chief!” that was Jane testing her new vocal chords to Cortana.
