Simple as this, if you read the books, you understand that slipspace is like folding up a paper many times and skipping across the top, at no time is it ever mentioned that you leave time, you are just inbetween points and at both at the same time. The marathon theory is interesting but think of it from a marketing standpoint. Its basically the same game as Halo, in fact its what Halo evolved from. If they remade Marathon it would be basically the same game. Think of Marathon as the de-evolved Halo... My best bet is that the planet is nothing that we are guessing but something new like the flood homeworld or something. I have run through many ideas in my head. Marathon = played out, Onyx = why the scary music at the end if its Onyx, that place is pacified, there has to be some other secret in plain view that we are missing.
My thinking is that the soundtrack will have some spoilers hidden in it when it comes out
Maybe its something obvious like the name of the ship Forward Onto Dawn and the irony of half of it going backwards
Possible enemies:
The only other people left to fight are the Brutes and maybe the other covenant races, the elites probably wont fight us or them
The Forerunners seemed peaceful so they wouldnt attack us...
The Precursers maybe but nothing is known about them
Maybe the Insurrectionists will try to activate the rings
Cortana goes even further rampant
They find the flood homeworld
Offensive Bias returns and thinking the whole universe is doomed by flood, attempts to kill us all...
Scattered thoughts... enjoy
