So, I managed to find some time to watch it and... I don't really like the first episode. There's a treaty? An Elite Zealot, a species known for its honour code, resorting to detonating a dirty bomb (which is a very cowardly move, moreso for an Elite Zealot!)? Wait, the "element" infects only humans yet not every human is infected? And I am still having trouble accepting the reversal of the surgical augmentations of Randall. It's like reversing Wolverine's adamantium skeleton and claws. *shrugs* — [[User:Subtank|subtank]] 11:15, 20 November 2014 (EST)

:It's said that the element "randomly" targets human DNA so not everyone is infected. But I'm having trouble buying the whole element thing in the first place—how convenient is it that a new randomly generated element (if it truly ''was'' random) just happens to target humans only and terrorists ''somehow'' learned of this... even though the element only exists in this insanely inhospitable and remote location. Given that setup how did ''anyone'' catch wind of the element and its effects, much less refine it into a sophisticated bioweapon that can emit it as radiation? As for the Zealot I was more bothered by the fact no one seemed to mind the giant armored alien casually strolling around in the mall. It's rather believable that not every Elite is all that honor-obsessed, though these "dishonorable" and brutish terrorist types have been overrepresented in 343's post-war media until recently—I'm hoping that characterization gets some variety with the apparent resumed focus on the Covenant. The "reversal" of Randall's augmentations is just the sort of comic book nonsense that's sadly been on the rise in ''Halo'' peripheral media as of late. I can't really see how you'd feasibly undo ''any'' of the S-II augmentations. --[[User:Jugus|Jugus]] ([[User talk:Jugus|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|Contribs]]) 11:34, 20 November 2014 (EST)
