theres a lot of theorys flying around everywhere... so where do the human vs covenant come in? will there be a civil war inside covenant? will we join forces to destroy the flood, or a rampant AI? post any postulates, hypotheses, and theorys here.

Covenant will never join forces with humans, it's against their religion.

Is it part of there religon to die out. The covenant fear the flood as u can see from halo 1. I think it is because their plasma weapons are less effective. It would make sense to make an alliance to defeat an unstoppable enemy. We don't even know what the covenant really plan to accomplish by wiping out the human race(at leas i dont).

Plus that would be cool, Covenant+Human vs. Flood+Robots(or machines, or AI)

yeah thats what i think... because even to fanatical reliegeons, its infinitely better to join forces with the "infidels" than to get killed... but yeah plasma = gh3y except the pistol... without the charge beam, no elites would ever die in Legendary solo!

Haha

But no, Covenant would never join with the Humans; the game would turn into a big sissy love-fest if that happened, and that wouldn't be so good for the Halo franchise

But as far as some Covenant becoming traitors, that is a possibility

I agree... I like the idea of the four-front war that kind of goes on toward the end of halo 1... (AI, flood, covenant, humans) and to join forces would be kinda -blam!-... the covenant is the problem, not the flood. even without the flood, theres sitll the covies

The Covenant still haven't learned the tru7h about their religious elders. I could see a few alien races defying the Covenant pact.

I feel that Peace between the Covenant and the Humans is possible. The whole reason that the Covenant are fighting the humans is because a prophecy in their religion speaks of "pink skinned demons". When Covenant came in contact with the humans, they assumed they were the demons their prophecy spoke of and waged war uphon them. However, my hunch is that the Covenants real demons are the flood and the whole war is a case of mistaken identity. That would lead to the Covenant and the humans joining forces against the flood or Guilty Spark or whatever.

But because the Covenant could become embroiled in their civil war, does not mean that any of them will join the humans, making the scenarios a 5, 6 or 7 fronted fight.

The covenant are to proud of a race to join Someting they are trying to squash under their foot, I beleve the forunners may give the humans some sort of gift or technology to help them defeat the coveys, mabe a way to harness the flood and use them as a weapon.

343 Guilty spark said there was many Halos in the universe and he said he would activate them all once the one goes off, loke dropping a pebbel in a pond.

They could possibly give them a halo triggering device that would distroy the covies home world

There isnt proof that they are uncontrollable, And under certain curcumstances the wont infect a person (Srg. johnson)

Their could be a way, and again its all speculation, we dont know the truth, only bungie knows ;)

yeah agreed... its just speculation that they cant be controlled. but wasnt it the case with sgt. Johnson that he COULDNT become infected, like they wouldve if they couldve but they cant because he had that brain disease thing or whatever...

It wasn't a brain disease, it was something else but I can't remember and I can't look to my book for reference because I lent it to my friend. Though I'll tell you that he got that certain anti-flood disease because of exposure to plasma. The Flood weren't able to infect his nervous system.
