Subject: What is Reach?

I beat down a Scarab.

Other than a Halo sequal taking place on the planet Reach, I don't really uderstand the concept, not to mention I thought Halo 3 ODST was the last halo game?

Gamertag is a secret, it's linked, just hidden.

It's not a halo sequal, it's a pre-sequal to halo 1, meaning it takes part before halo 1. Atleast I think so...

I know this as well. But I mean is it going to be like WoW or is it Going to be a FPS or more like Gears of War?

This is more along the lines of my question.

Halo 3 finished the story of the chief.

Halo Reach is a different thing.

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.”

Before Halo 1, the covenant attacked the largest UNSC base, which is on the planet Reach. This was called the Battle of Reach, and it resulted in the destruction of the colony and the retreat of the Pillar of Autumn towards Halo.

No halo 3 actually ended the story ark of the flood, master chief is the commanding officer over the spartans, he is the one centered in the picture above, they are all from the book.

It is a prequel,

Reach = the largest human colony other then earth, it was vaporized by the covenant and then master chief and keys get away on the pillar of autumn and then the first halo game starts

Reach will be a FPS ,just like every other Bungie produced Halo title. The primary character will be the Master Chief as he is the commanding officer of the Spartan II program. Reach will most likely follow several key points from the novel, while allowing the player to interact with and fight alongside your fellow Spartans.

For those of you are unfamiliar: Reach is a PREQUEL to Halo. Every Spartan that survived their augmentations are alive and serving under Master Chief. The Spartans also first receive their Mjolnir armor with shields during Fall of Reach. Seriously, you all need to read the back story in order to understand how intricate and detailed everything is in the Halo universe.
