Commander Shepard vs, Master Chief

[ChosenOne54]

This battle pits an Adept Shepard, from Mass Effect, against Master Chief, from Halo. Shepard is at full power, with standard equipment. Master Chief gets his battle rifle, assault rifle, and a full compliment of grenades and plasma grenades. This is book Master Chief, which means retarded reflex/strength wank is permitted.

As a bonus, what if Alcatraz from Crysis 2 were added to this match?

Some quotes on Mass Effect firepower:

ME:Revelation, pg 39
The enemy forces, close to a dozen armed and armoured mercenaries, were coming toward them from the far side of the chamber...

...[h]is team had been poised and ready as the elevator doors opened and they reacted almost instantaneously to his command, charging forward from the elevator with a barrage of gunfire. The first wave of their attack ripped into the pack of unsuspecting mercs...

...[t]hree of the enemy combatants dropped to the floor, but enough of the deadly projectiles were deflected or absorbed so that the rest of them were able to fall back and dive for cover behind the boulders and stalagmites that littered the cavern's floor.

pg 40
He hit the ground and rolled as a line of bullets struck the floor in front of him, disintegrating the stone and sending tiny showers of water and dust up under his visor and into his face. He came to his feet spitting out the foul grit.

pg 53
She ran full full speed into the room...and right into a spray of gunfire...

...[t]he force of the bullets picked up Dah off her feet and sent her crashing to the ground in a heap. Forward momentum caused her body to somersault across the floor until she stopped, crumpled and motionless in the corner...

...[a] few stray bullets had penetrated the kinetic barriers protecting her torso only to ricochet off the heavy plates of her body armour, inflicting no damage beyond small dents and discolorations. But her right leg, where the armour was thinner and the highest concentration of fire had drained the shields, had been reduced to pulp and hamburger

I don't think Shep can survive the Spartan Wank.

As I recall his armor and shields could shrug off 30mm rounds and even survived an anti-tank missile. This it to say nothing of genius level intelligence, super-human reaction time, massive strength, etc.

Adept Shepard has even more impressive strength feats... with biotics. In Mass Effect 1, he is capable of lifting Geth Armatures.

That, and the general superiority of his weapons, and I don't think this is going to be an incredibly easy fight for the Chief.

Unfortunately another game came along called Mass Effect 2 and totally changed how biotics worked. I also am a bit skeptical of the usefulness of throwing a guy into a wall who could survive atmospheric re-entry.

Do we have any numbers on the firepower of ME weaponry?

It only changed biotics in gameplay. The codex, cutscenes and novels trump gameplay, in that order. Unless you're really trying to argue that because Shep can't use biotics on a target that has shields and armor in game it wont work on the Master Chief.

And Shep doesn't need to use lift or throw on him, they could generate a singularity, use warp or any of the other gravity altering abilities a biotic has which the Master Chief has no experience with or defense against. Nevermind the heavy weapons, I wonder what the Cain would do to the Master Chief?

[ThePerson5]

Exactly, Master Chief has no defense against biotics. Shepard could trap Chief with singularity, while eating away at his shields/armour at his leisure. He could use warp, stasis to freeze Master Chief, lift... oh, the options.

[MrDakka]

Not to mention Shep's guns are some type of hypervelocity coilgun/railgun (anyone actually know which one? Codex only mumbles something about electromagnetism).

Singularity + Warp = Fun on a Bun

He wouldn't need to trap him with singularity, he makes one appear and it sucks him in, the end.
