People keep talking about going to the covie home world and blowing up another halo this is not going to happen. Going to covie home world is not fesible there are simply not enough humans left to go on a direct counter attack against the covenant. Yes in the beggening they were planning to get spartans to board a ship to find out the location of covie's homeworld but that was when the humans still had men to fight with now earth is all that is left. As for the other halo why would we need to blow it up? There is no reason the halo that would have destroyed earth when fired has been destroyed. Instead I believe we are going to find the location of a halo with in the range of the covie homeworld and fire it. It makes perfect sense regarding the level lay ot too. Rember in the E3 demo MC is going to board a cruiser well what will he do he will find the location of the covie homeworld on board that ship like they wanted to earlier. Now in the documentery bungie said "fighting in forerunner facilities in gas giants" well why would MC be there he knows where th covies live now he will use those forerunner facilities to find a halo with in range of the covie home world. MC then goes to that other halo that bungie talked about fires it using the index that cortanta still has remember. Whiping the galaxy clean of covies what remains to be seen is how 343 GS, the flood, and the forerunner play a role.

bungie specifically stated that you will "take the fight to the Covenant" which means going to their home planet. Besides, all you really need are the spartans. Marines are good help, but are not needed.

He could do just what they did in First Strike hijack a covie ship fly it to the homeworld and than self destruct it. If the Pillar of Autumn can break Halo be destructing it i am sure it could leave a nice dent in the Covenant Homeworld. Could even take out the Prohpets than there whole civilaztion would crumble than we could woop there ass.

The phrase taking the fight to some one can mean a lot of things maybe on board a covie cruiser but the phrase more often refers to really kicking some ones ass. If this phrase was supposed to mean go to covie home world then why not just say it plain and clear that we are going to the covie homeworld. Even with the spartans in MC's team it would still be impossible a UNSC ship would be blown up before they got any where close and even if they did land do you have any idea how long that would take MC still needs ammo MC is good but with small arms you could not take a planet and if you did with 12 men or so it would take like 100 years before you killed every one with a riffle just think for a sec if every human lined up and there was one guy with a rifle and he shot them one by one all be himself it would take a year or so now think that everyone is fighting you or running away you couldnt kill everyone you would need a fource of atleast 500 million to take a planet in any timly matter.

Well you really don't know what could happen. THey said there are going to be a lot of twistes the story. What if MC manages to set a Halo ring world on a course to the Covenant world? They release the flood and they're screwed? What if they find Forerunner artifacts that help them destroy the Covenant assualt? Or liek in Stargate SG-1, the most powerfull alien weapon known of was actually hidden on Earth. THere are a lot of possibilities and the fact is, you don't, we don't know, we're all just making ass-u-mptions.

A planet is vey different then halo look at the planet hologram in the control room you can see a little halo floating around it now compare that to the size of the autum or T&R they would damage the planet maybe destroy one city. Just think about the size of earth just think about most wars on this planet are fought with soldiers in the the thousands now think about it in the billions on a planetary scale just look at the size of the fleet the covies are using to take earth they know how many men it will take to whipe a population greater then 6 billion people you are telling me one man can do that. Impossible

Covenant technology is much different from humans', who knows how much damage a Covenant engine can do when blown up, you don't.

what are you talking about? why would the MC need marines or ODST's to destroy a covonent home world? he can do it himself...he is the Master Chief . And i have heard people saying that there are other Spartans, no...they are ODST's, unless they made new Spartans in Halo 2.

1 you cant steer a halo it is like a space station.

2Why release the flood knowing they will eventually get to us.

3 Forerunner technology possible but cheap strorywise I mean it would be like the matrix sequels introducing new facts that don't really have an obvious link to the previous story.

And one thing my plot line has going for it is the simple fact that you don't have to read the books to understand it remember more people who are going to be playing halo 2 are going to have not read the books this story line builds off of given information said by bungie not by the books making it much more fesible.

In an Interview at E3, a guy said (I dont know the name, but the video is at xbox website) that the game takes place where First Strike left off, so, take it as you will.

That planet by Halo is a gas giant, Threshold. A gas giant is many many times bigger than earth. in fact , i think Earth is little bigger than the moon by Halo. So a giant exsplosion would do more damage. But Earth is a sphere, Making a Giant exsplosion less effective and wouldn't throw of its gravitation pull on itself like it Did in Halo.

Read the damn posts I dont care if he is MC he couldn't do it fast enough yes MC may be able to destroy every covie on a planet but it would take one hell of a long time years and by the time he was done the covies would have destroyed every human on earth plus going from planet to planet MC still has to rely on human pilots who will be shot down since the UNSC fleat is practicly none existant by the time halo 2 begens.

Use your god damn heads people you are busy telling me why/how we will go to a covie homeworld well why will we go to another halo which has been confirmed on like th covie homeworld. Look at the facts then draw your own conclusions.

Your just not opening your mind, your too arrogant to even consider what we're saying ,so its not worth talking to you about it.

Halo doesn't have a moon. It's a planet that happens to be called Harvest. Halo can't have a moon its not even a planet. It's an artifiicial structure that the forerunners built. It's not big enough for anything to revolve around it. It probably doesn't even have any magnetic pull since it doesn't have a spinning core.

What bugs me, is not your theory, but the way you go about it. You get mad for other people coming up with stuff, when yours is no different. Sure it's a little more logical than others, but you talk about it like it's whats gonna happen. The fact of the matter is, there's a million different things that could happen in the story, and I bet you we won't guess what happens before the game ships. And if we do, whoopdee, we guessed the plot to a videogame. Just settle down, and don't act like your idea is correct, simply because you used your noggin.

Im not to arrogant so far nothing anyone has said has used facts to back up what they are saying my argument uses direct bungie comentary; however, my staements do not talk about the flood and forerunner but in my oppinion when you go to this other halo to fire it and destroy the covies the flood are released maybe even by 343 GS for some reason that is yet to be seen. That is pure speculation my other argument is a supported hypothesis that so far has not been challenged succesfully it is an attempt to show where MC will go in halo 2 who he will fight is yet to be seen.
