Flawed Logic. 343 scanned the Mjolnir and compared it against his own scales. This "class" scale that he's talking about means nothing to us because we don't know his scale.

All we can assume is that if the Mjolnir is a class 3 on his scale and he recommends a class 12, that the Forerunner's suits must be very kickass.

y would we want to build a halo


Simply, halo is a "fortress world", whoa!, whachooo talking about ELEMENTT_?!.

well, a fortress is a place where people/aliens (forerunners) etc... go to hide, take cover or shelter themselves from diferent situations, most of them dangerous (the flood), halo was made as an image of their homeworld (earth?), so the forerunners could live in for a determinated amount of time to ensure the survival of the species, so, you might be wondering. why was the flood held in halo?. well, it's simple too, for study, may be they were trying to find a way to eliminate the flood in a scientific way, not using brute force as we did on halo, lol...... so why there aren't any forerunners in halo?....... well, maybe they run out of food, or they got sick, who knows, may they survived and went to another planet (earth?) and simply forgotten about the Halos and their purpose. why?, well it is a fact that smart beings forget thing, "human nature" i think.

Elementt, that term "Fortress World" doesn't mean anything. The Covenant called Halo a Fortress World not the Forerunners themselves. We still have no idea why the Halos were created.

Your theory is very interesting

On the GameInformer mag issue#133 there a map called the waterwork for multiplayer twice as big as bloodgulch and theres a light were the editor said a light in the middle room that light up the whole cavern that seems to be made by the forerunner and then it ask "could it be that the forerunners were on earth a long time ago?"

But the halo being the same as earth does not mean anything lest consider this planet reach is the same as earth.

well, what does mean fortress to you?. also if halo was activated once a long time ago why the flood was still there?, obviously cuz the "boom" of halo wasn't meant to destroy what was IN halo but what was around it. just think about it.

Heres a couple of things we can deduce with the facts so far;

Reach and sigma octanis VI both had Forerunner artifacts on them - and their environments were both hospitable to Humans, ie. the atmosphere has air, enough ozone to propel cosmic Rays, oceans, etc tec.

Now - When the covenant arrive on Earth, they DO NOT glass the planet, indicating that there must be something they want - I surmise its Forerunner technology from the new MP level designs, and just the general flow of story line;

so thats 3 out of 3 humans planets, and there has probably been more we haven't heard about, that contain ;

A) forerunner Technology

B) good conditions for Human beings.

So I think that theres a bit of proof that the Forerunners may indeed favour our similar environmental and Atmospheric conditions for life.

This Still doesn't mean that the Forerunner are human, but why go to such lengths to create conditions similar to those where Humans inhabit.

Also - to throw a spanner in the works.

Isn't it odd that the Flood live in similar conditions.

If the Forerunner studied the flood in such conditions oh the Halo's, and planted their technology on other planets with the same environment conditions - I dont think it would be too far fetched to suggest that maybe we are actually offspring of the flood.

think about it; the flood may just be a crreation gone bad for the Forerunner. Maybe the forerunner where aiming to create and model a species in their own image, but f)cked it up a few times before they got it right.

It could also explain why the convenant dont like us too much. Anything related to the flood would well and truly have to be improsened or anihilated. And maybe the Covenant, attempting brownnose their Forerunner gods, see it as thier business to get rid of us.

anyway, just a thought.

Maybe the humans aren't actually Forerunners. Perhaps the Forerunners are a godlike race that actually created humans.


Recognize, -blam!-!

Uhm, the Covenant are glassing Earth. Watch the Announcement trailer and watch the blackened Earth aglow with plasma strikes.

Secondly, the Flood do not flourish in similar conditions. As 343 said, your suit will serve you quite well when the Flood begin transforming the atmosphere.

a good point about the atmosphere.

however, you rude idiot - they are not glassing earth, they are doing the exact same thing as they did to reach - taking the ground forces out and moving in to find the artifacts.
