Rookie already had Dirt, and you just can't allow someone who has the skill to take on the entire Data Hive with only Dare as back up to get captured. You don't get rid of character cause he had no personality, you build on that personality and tell people "This is why X is a mute". Unlike B312, who's death was understandable because he was the only one left, and had a purpose. The Rookies death was just a large "fu­ck you" .

  • Even in dirt rookies sole purpose was to allow the dying ODST to tell his story. The Rookie isn't a character. He's a plot device, and he's got no personality [i]to[/i] build off of. Sometimes people die. It doesn't matter how badass they are. Some soldiers have taken on hundreds of people in real life, only to get shot dead in another battle same as any other mook. It happens. It wasn't a -blam!- you because his death served an important purpose by bringing the squad back together as he had in his game.
