Well? I think its after Halo 3 because in the trailer you see a Ship that looks like it has been destroyed like the one at the end of Halo 3. Any Thoughts?

They ended the fight after halo 3 but if it is after then maybe chief again.
I think its very early in the trilogy because there is spartans.

Foman is awesome!

Its Halo: Reach i.e. the planet Reach which was glassed long before Halo 3.

Before Halo C.E.
It's pretty much right after Master Chief is a full-fledged spartan, and his first big mission.

It is before Halo: Combat Evolved. I am thinking it goes along with the book, "Halo: The Fall of Reach".

Before CE.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Reach ends as CE begins.

Child Please

Read the book, Halo: The Fall of Reach. It's by Eric Nylund. Reach is (was) one of humanity's biggest military stronghold planets. It was the planet where the Spartans were trained. The books and the games differ in what happened to the Spartans other than Chief. In the games, we are led to believe Chief is the only surviving Spartan.(the rest of the Spartans being killed on Reach). In the book, multiple Spartans survive, but they go on a separate mission, whereas Chief goes on and engages in the events of Halo C.E. Regardless, in the trailer, you can clearly hear them say "we've got spartans (as in more than one) on the ground. Since Reach was glassed before Halo C.E., and all Spartans other than chief were supposedly killed at Reach just before Halo C.E., this game must take place in the days before The Pillar of Autumn escaped the destruction of Reach and found the first Halo.
