I bet they actually have someone who combs the forums and leads us on all different trails to lead us anywhere but where we want to go. Haha. nah I doubt it. That would just be plain cruel. I think this will all clear out in the coming months though. Possibly december or in january like the little teaser "supposedly" clued us on to.
i dont doubt that they do

They have many Forum Ninjas that go throughout the forums. For all we know, they report our theories to Bungie. Also, Bungie employees themselves might watch this thread closely to see the hilarious/random things posted here.

I'm sure they got a kick out of all the "Don't Blame Stosh" and "Blame Stosh" quotations from users in the beginning; not to mention, all the pleas for the answer to be given to them. haha

But yeah, this Expansion will be so amazing. Can't wait.

ok so i watched the vid again and the clock on the right bottom corner says 16:11:16:29 so I wanted to see how much time relapsed between the the EMP and the initial come around of the "AI" well after it reboots it says ERR 00:00:00:00 BUT after the Halo 3 image you see the ODST pod crashing the clock reads 16:03:30:19

Yeah, I noticed that earlier, as well. I just went along with it; didn't feel like pulling an explanation from air, considering we don't know exactly what is going on anyways.

The second time could have been earlier that day, or the next day at that time, who knows.

Maddie could be another AI, or Maddie could be a person you search for in this campaign; someone high ranking in ONI or UNSC.

Night, Harrfuzz. Sorry, I was taking control of other threads, trying to explain the matter and expose false rumor-starters.

  • 09.25.2008 10:00 PM PDT

So I take it that since the trailer has been released, there are no new theories developing? I've noticed that people are still adamant that the skulls are on MP maps. Also, i've noticed the ODST squad theory is also being strongly supported at the moment.

In the lower right corner (can't give a time, but when the camera switchs to the alley way) it quickly show com link sierra 117.

My guest to the end show >Halo 3, prepare to drop. Meaning prepare to stop playing Halo 3 cause something bigger is coming. Also hidden in the text is a date 1-6-09.

Bungie sure likes to start a forest fire of theories... must have hurt for the camera at the end. *smack* Danger: Flood Zone? If there's no water present, what does it imply? What happened to the city in the first place, anyways?

I hope that date is the date for the revealing of the project (I wouldn't mind if it was the release date though XD).

  • 09.26.2008 7:50 AM PDT

guys wouldn't this mean SI is a security system or something...sorry if this has already been said

  • 09.26.2008 7:52 AM PDT

Ok, I haven't been on here in a while, but it looks like people have made a ton of progress. I do have something to add though - don't flame me if it's already been said, I don't have time to go through all of these pages to find it, and I don't know the Halo Universe perfectly, so I apologize in advance if I get any details wrong.

Anyways, does anybody remember the 'Landfall' trailer? It's the live action, 3 part trailer that looks like a movie. It focuses primarily on the ODST troops. Even though there are no pods, ODST is written EVERYWHERE, which makes me think we were really supposed to notice. The timing may be wrong, because they locate Master Chief falling from the sky (where Halo 3 starts off), and happens after Regret's ship destroys New Mombassa by entering slipspace.

I suppose that nothing says though it can't span the whole time (fighting in new Mombassa, Chief arrives, then re-joins with them after he makes a crater in the jungle).

I guess my point is that this trailer from over a year ago might actually shed some light on this, and enforce the idea that the game will be from the perspective of one (or a squad of) ODST soldiers.

Thoughts?

so this trailer would be just before landfall right?!
