With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.
I think Humans could possibly be Forerunner, but here's
something I found odd. (sorry if someone posted something
similar before, but this forum is so busy I can never catch
threads when they start.)
These Sentinels will supplement your combat system. But, I
suggest you upgrade to at least a Class Twelve combat skin.
Your current model only scans as a Class Two, which is
ill suited for this kind of work.
Ok, so he's talking about your armor, right?
Your environment suit should serve you well when the Flood
begins to alter the atmosphere. You are a good planner.
If "combat skin" is armor, then why would he talk about your
"environment suit?" I think combat skin is different than 117's
armor from 343's perspective. This brings up an interesting
question. Why would such a powerful race need combat skin?
I have an idea that the Forerunner may not have a physical
form, and are more cybernetic than organic, or are completely
mechanized, and used to be an organic race. This might also
explain why they would need the Flood to survive. Perhaps the
Flood wiped their organic forms out, and contain something
like the Forerunner DNA, so the Forerunner would need to
keep the Flood to resurrect themselves one day. One Problem.
Where are the Forerunner? 343 seems to think they're still
around, and there is this one quote from the Cortana Letters.
Whoever made such a place must now live in chains;
there is no other explanation for their absence.
hmm....
Btw, good work Eagle and everybody contributing to this
thread. Why wait when you can speculate?
A possibility, yes.... but here's an alternative to the combat skin and evironment suit difference:
Perhaps the combat skin is the Master Chief's shields. That might suggest why 343 thinks its upgradeable, becaue you can upgrade them... with the right technology, of course... You don't really upgrade a whole suit of armor... if you upgrade the whole thing, its more like getting a new, different one alltogether.
