I thought the rings fired near instantly. Shame, i d like to see Blue team in a Halo game They pushed Halsey from morally gray to evil character, they keep giving the character bad luck for seemingly no good reason, and trying to make us hate her, (kilo five trilogy - literally Hitler, Spartan ops - unliked by our "heroes", forced to switch sides for survival but painted as a traitor.) Sarah Palmer is forced down our throats as being the new "cool" character. They even made a whole game (spartan assault) that was a big Palmer ego stoke. The way Palmer acts makes her seem like the Sergeant Johnson wannabe.
