Subject: Where in the world in Master Chief?. An extensive scientific theory.

The Internet; Where guys are guys, women are guys, and kids are F.B.I. agents

I'm going to have to disagree with this theory because of my theory which also seems pretty logical. Okay so we have all heard the stories of Noah's ARK and how he built that ARK to surive the FLOOD. I believe that planet in the cutscene is a Forerunner planet with surviving Forerunners inhabiting it. The Forerunners built their ARK to escape the FLOOD and save any bit of their race remaining.

Not to mention I do recall Bungie saying the universes of Marathon and Halo have similarities, but are in no way tied together like the main theory of this thread states.

Slip space...... Portals.... shield world..... Forerunners.... Precusors.... Reclaimer..... Humm....
Is master Chief in another universe?... Perhaps, there's much more to the Halo story to tell. From the books and conglomorant of information in the Halo games... The ones before USNC we're more advanced, and before them (forerunners) even more advanced.
Yet they were not able to preserve themselves from annilation... Or were they?

Here's the thing, There so much trendy backstory to be Halo that it's assimilation into the now makes for a more than amazing gaming sequel. Yet Reclaimers are similiar to Forerunners.... and there is hints of a more advanced race before them. It's interesting how life repeats itself and how this, amoung many other things, are incorporated into the Halo story. So is it suffice to say that infact the forerunner were us, that made a mistake.... but saved a universe by a sacrafise. The writters of Halo parrelled so many aspects of their story with our world's beliefs, religions, politics, and natural process that it's amazing how many people don't really realize why they identify with Halo so well.

And so, knowing the foundation of the writters of Halo, perhaps we can come to an understanding that in halo.... we hold the mantle to the universe.

Spartan II 077
Codenamed: Lasombra
Rank: Masterchief

MC is not in slipspace
The planet is not from Marathon
MC didn't travel anywhere when the portal closed. See the burns on the ship? That is from the Ark portal closing and cutting it in half, -before- the back half entered.
There is no communication device floating around from Marathon security bots. For it to be there someone would of have to had to come in and leave it, in which case I doubt they would of left MC just floating around...
It is not Onyx

They only -guess- that can be made is that it is another Shield World. Its outside the galaxy so its controlled, not random. The Forerunner symbol on it shows part of its origin with no answer as to who/what is on it. And since no Forerunners, except the ones who went to the shield worls survived, thats as good as a educated guess as it gets.

Stop these inane alternate universe, slipspace travel, time warp stuff. Use ya brain!

Just today I was playing HALO:CE and at the end approaching the Pillar of Autumn in my banshee, there is a big round symbol that resembles MARATHON stuff. Clearly there is vice versa throughout BUNGIE's games. I can't wait to see what's around the bend!

Ready. Set. Counterargument.

Right now I would be happy to say we just don't know. He could be either still be by the rubble of the ark, like someone above me said, or he could be in an alternate universe. There is, as far as I can see, NO WAY to see which is correct. There are many possibilities, and it's hard to take sides.

EDIT: Nevermind. Ogier just explained everything I wanted to. I agree with him. I wanted to say something like that, but my knowledge of Halo is not quite extensive enough. His is.

There was alot of thought and effort put into this and you backed it up with unquestionable proof of what you are stateing and I would love to see anyone try to proove this man wrong.

"so let us cast our arms aside and thus discard our wrath,
Thou in faith, shall keep us safe whilst we find the path"

its possible that the chief is in our solar system and in the same time zone as the arbiter as the front half of the ship emerged from space the other half might have simply broken off and is floating in our solar system thats why we see mars

its High charity, the former holy city of The Covenant, until it was taken over by the flood. master Cheif is heading towards the last remains of the flood. if any of you can prove my story wrong, then you get 100 dollars

the ark is in africa. when did high charity crash in africa? a ship did, but not the city.

have you played the game!?! the ark is the ring builder we play on for most of the game the 'ark' whichit was thought to be was a portal to the real ark which was destroyed after gravemind crashed high charity onto the ark! not to mention theres a whole half level based on destroying high charity.
i never believed the object we saw in the trailer was 'the ark'
if u havnt played the game play it and if you have play it again

Ok, first I just want to say that I think these theories are very well thought out and entirely plausible. The only thing I wasn't sure of is the whole same place in a different dimension part. The question is, if the portal closed on the ship, did it cut the ship in half per-say and spit MC out after the explosion or did it engulf him and take the ship to the other dimension you are theorizing?

Personally I think your theories are mostly correct, I suppose my skeptic side was just talking there =] I would definitely like to hear a definite answer though, maybe some day Bungie will elaborate...

  • 06.05.2008 8:48 PM PDT

very good idea. i actually believe this should be confirmed by bungie. i mean if you hit the bulls eye than the couch should congratulate you. and by that logic ill be looking forward to the new halo/ marathon remake

Subject: I have 100% Proof of where master chief is. NEW PROOF!!!!!

I don't know if anyone else has picked you up on this but i think you would like to know

You quoted this at the begining of your post


Posted by: MIKEFLOUNDERS
Small Magellanic Cloud is 200,000 light years away from our galaxy ,our galaxy is 100,000 light years across so the radius is 50,000 light years so 2.5 galactic radius would be 150,000 light years to where chief is and 50.000 light years the the small magellanic cloud in the back ground so he is prity much still in our universe and in marathon you tack off from earth in the marathon as a secruity guard....


50,000 (our galaxy radius) x 2.5 is not 150,000
is it 125,000

but how can you tell the exact nebula or universe there is no proven theory or existing theory of all univurses being like snow flakes no two alike so it is not so possible to be the galaxy you think it is unless a game creater told you so
