Well you know how Cortana in halo 1 says "the covenant found something buried in this ring....and now.....they're scared." well i was looking at some halo 2 footage form a long time ago and the marines were saying "this rings got something they want, and they want it bad enough to hit a shipload of us with their whole murderin fleet."

i wonder what the covenant want so bad on this halo, and if there was the same thing on the last halo

they want it for "religious" purposes
they idolize the forerunners so they want to have control of the ring worlds

The Covenant are stupid and a bit panicked since humans almost beat them to Halo when the PoA retreated from Reach. They sent a bunch of ships and figured they'd find anything they could to kill us. The roughly translated "weapon" where it was actually "flood". They opened the wrong door, and BOOM we have our little Flood problem. Basically they were just trying to beat us to the cool toys and were trying to kill us with these toys.

Possibly the prophets had a secret reason to go to halo, And told the other race very little. Maybye they wanted to find the flood and use them as a weapon. Maybye they were looking for artifacts like the "slipspace stone". One things for sure those prophets are some secretive mothers.

anybody think that they might of just wanted Halo? you know, since it can wipe out anything within 25000 light years? just a thought, but I think that would one good "anti-sonofa-blam!- machine"

new rings? what new rings? Halo 2 is only called Halo 2 because the first one was called Halo.. I doubt the return of any ring in H2.. The covenenant want to wipe us off the face of the universe for the same reason the Iraqis are trying to kill us.. it's a "holy war" and the entire human race are the Infadels

PLUS, the rings were designed to contain, study, and destroy the Flood, so if there IS a new ring then the Flood make a horrible return...

Actually, Bungie has stated that it is in fact very likely (if not for certain, I'm unsure) that there will be another Halo Construct in Halo 2. Even 343 Guilty Spark mentions the other Halos and is seen riding off into space (for freedom!!) most likely heading to another Halo installation.

In terms of what the Covenant were looking for. Well it's quite possible they were completely mislead and believed that Halo would suffice to give them more technology and those stones that effect slipstream travel. Aside though is the possibility that the Prophets were going there for their own purposes - that they knew about the Flood the entire time possibly. If that's the case, it might be possible that the Covenant wanted to use the Halo to their advantage and manipulate the destructive capabilities to only take out races they don't like (aka HUMANS).

I'm sorry, but I REALLY hope the Flood don't come back.. EVER.. all these games nowadays throw some sort of zombie thing in there... what would be cool in the Flood's place is a covenant revolt or something of that like... but please NO MORE MUTANTS!

Well it's entirely possible that each individual Halo has something different on it - so its possible no more flood (Who knows, but Bungie). Aside, though, Each halo is probably built for the same purpose, destruction of sentient life - so who knows what'll happen, aside the gaming Gods of Bungie.

Play as a team win as a team or die as a team!


And didn't the Covenant wanted Halo to use it against the humans?

What the hell I thought the POA blew up and wasn't able to fly anymore so how the hell did the POA get off of Halo on Reach?

The Pillar of Autumn (POA) retreated FROM Reach TO Halo ; That's what he meant. It never got off Halo to Reach.
