:There, fixed. For me at least. Some glitch or something, makes it all blurry when the size is set to 200px. --[[User talk:Jugus|Jugus]] 21:27, December 1, 2009 (UTC) | :There, fixed.

Doesn't the MJOLNIR Mark V have biofoam injectors too?[[User talk:Rollersox|Rollersox]] 02:06, July 27, 2010 (UTC) | Doesn't the MJOLNIR Mark V have biofoam injectors too?[[User talk:Rollersox|Rollersox]] 02:06, July 27, 2010 (UTC) | ||
:Presumably not, hence their inability to recharge health like the Mark VI can. To be fair, I don't think any official source has ever said the Mark VI had the injectors as well, but it's the conclusion the fandom came up with to explain a gameplay mechanic. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 02:16, July 27, 2010 (UTC) | :Presumably not, hence their inability to recharge health like the Mark VI can.

::I think the "''automated''" part is a simple mistake. The Mark V ''does'' have ports through which to inject biofoam, but does not carry its own supply of the stuff. That's why medkits can be used so easily and efficiently. Just grab a biofoam canister, insert it in the slot, activiate it, and, ''voila'', your wound's patched up. As I recall, John does just that near the end of ''The Flood'' when he's taking out the ''Autumn'''s engines. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson]] 03:06, July 27, 2010 (UTC) | ::I think the "''automated''" part is a simple mistake.

I'd like for the Halo 4 section to be changed to reflect the above. the first observation is kinda unquestionable, the second one relies on informed speculation, but it's not out of line with the type of speculation that often fills in the gaps for things like this. Should I put in the changes?--[[User:Calvarok|Calvarok]] ([[User talk:Calvarok|talk]]) 23:09, 16 July 2014 (EDT) | I'd like for the Halo 4 section to be changed to reflect the above. the first observation is kinda unquestionable, the second one relies on informed speculation, but it's not out of line with the type of speculation that often fills in the gaps for things like this.

:About your first point, [[Dawn|I think you got the sequence of lines in reverse]]. Also, a source on that final sentence in your second paragraph would be helpful. Otherwise, that's just unfound speculation on your part. I would like to also point out that the gash was also featured on [[Awakening]] trailer, the promotional images and official screenshots. If anything, this meant that the developer wanted to visually change his armor from the very start (i.e. retcon).— <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 04:52, 17 July 2014 (EDT) | :About your first point, [[Dawn (level)|I think you got the sequence of lines in reverse]].

::I almost feel like Cortana being rampant is the new "a wizard did it" where the Chief's armour is concerned. Attributing irrational actions to an irrational entity is a bit silly. My own theory is that she just liked the way it looked, and didn't care enough to remove the gash, but that's just me. And as for portrayals of him pre-Requiem, I doubt 343i would have created an entirely different model to depict a gash-less Chief simply to save space, especially without campaign saved films for us to actually check. And, of course, we've tried not to take promotional material or pre-release trailers as hard canon. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 06:15, 17 July 2014 (EDT) | ::I almost feel like Cortana being rampant is the new "a wizard did it" where the Chief's armour is concerned.

:::Indeed. They are not to be taken as ''hard canon''. However, they are still relevant as evidence of intention (i.e. "what they intend to achieve"). | :::Indeed.

Do we really need the images in the variants section? It worked fine back when the nicely consistent ''Halo 3'' images were the only ones but now the section's starting to look really untidy. We should probably just go with a format similar to the [[Mark V]] page or have the variants as subsections but with no images like in [[Mark IV]]. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 03:10, 13 November 2014 (EST) | Do we really need the images in the variants section?
