Subject: Halo: Reach Storyline. Yeah, Another Guess.

important "FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT READ THE BOOKS DO NOT READ ON " REPEAT DO NOT READ ON"" So many lames think they know it all. . . .anyway. . . Yes there's goin to be more Halo games after Reach. . that's like asking does a bear -blam!- in the woods. . . In Reach were goin to meet the other spartans and grow attached . . . and prolly continue where the chief left off near the shield world, and saving those trapped, and lead to some more mystery. . . . we know Reach will fall of course (leading to HALO CE) and will be left with maybe another game involving the other spartans during the events of the Halo series. . . who knows but as for the Halo universe. . . it's no where near over. . . with so many people involved its like star wars this aint goin away any time soon. . . but im here to stay bring it on!!!! imagine ODST, but instead of ODST its Spartans in Reach taking on wave after wave of covy's like in the books . .. . sick i got a woody thinking bout it . . .

Reach may have been glassed but it dosent mean its not reach. glassed planets are habitable

Ok i want you guys to look at some thing, In the reach trailer there are cities...ok and the covies BOMB them! now how is it that the cities just magically come back and have fancy new BLUE lights installed like the "Reach" at the end of halo 3? anyone? anyone?
not to mention the sun in system reach is in is ORANGE in halo 3 one its BLUE now need i say more?

Where is your evidence to show that the lights on the Halo 3 planet are indications of cities?

You too are now simply guessing.

i would personally like to play as Thel (arbiter) in his earlier days as a kaidon and zealot.
would give us some extra time with arby just like reach is giving us extra time with spartans.

To play or not to play....

Ok nice theory so far :)

Just a few points, or rather thoughts.

There was fighting on Reach as the Covenant tried to destroy the power generators for the MAC cannons in orbit. That battle was intense but for all intents pretty short. It was in all probably a couble of hours at the longest.

Eventually the Covenant did glass Reach. The only part of Reach not glassed was around the Forerunner installation. Also a bit of Reach was left intact to retain the biosphere at least long enough for the Covenant to potantially extract any Forerunner artifacts.

yes im guessing about the lights on the planet being cities at the end of halo 3....and if they are not cities then it would definitely would not be Reach. most of Reach was glassed if you look at the trailer the first bomb that goes off wipes out an entire city and the other take out most of the large epicenters.
Instead let me ask you this, If it was Reach then he was in Slip stream space for how many years? and why? dont you think he would have run out of oxygen?

He was in cryogenic stasis. I'm sure his oxygen supply would be fine.

I doubt it... I would much rather we start as Red Team falling to Reach, but I hope we're one of the Betas remaining at the generators (realistically, if the 5 sillhouettes appear together in the game, and S-259 is a character, this is the only possibility), so we get a taste of the novels, but also a new point of view on the battle of Reach.

If most of the Planet was glassed, the atmosphere wouldn't last long within the small unglassed quadrant. And the MJOLNIR only have, what, 45 minutes air supply? Though if they were in an underground Forerunner facility with its own air supply...

i think that you will probably play as ODST in Reach as well, i think there is a comic book about the same ODST in Halo ODST and they were on reach, possible got out with the MC? think its like a follow up on Halo: ODST and fix things people want buuut who knows looks like fun though.

The only people who got out with the Chief's Pelican during the battle of Reach are--

Linda
Johnson
Jenkins
Bisenti
O'Brien

After the Battle of Reach, when he returns--

Linda
Halsey
Johnson
Haverson
Whitcomb
Anton
Li
Grace
Will
Fred
Kelly


Maybe whoever we play as in Halo REACH will encounter him, though.

i doubt it, if anyone got off reach it would have probably at the latest been just before CASTLE base fell so maybe it could be defending cities and the generators and making it to a dropship or a prowler to get off the planet

There were many opportunities for them to get off of the world... there were Covenant ships all around.

Don't forget they are the best soldiers the UNSC haves.
And in the books the MC/other Spartans commandeer vehicles/ships from the covenant so they could've stolen a ship or something and could've escaped Reach

this is true but that possibility of 5 ODST taking on a covie ship even if it was a flag ship is very very slim.....unless, they had help. from spartans, class 2 maybe? noble 1 and his team? helps a small team or a large force to take a covie ship and get back to earth? hmm seems like a good plot to me

yes but MC was destroying the NAV data in space and the rest of the spartans were shot down and we already know what happens later to them, however whats largely unknown is the Spartan class 2 so i think maybe they help our ODST heroes escape.

I think that the 5 sillhouettes are members of Spartan Team Beta.

ODST heroes? you lost me there.... but there were more spartans on Reach then the ones in the Castle Base etc. there were more groups of which we haven't heard a thing

yes they could be spartans and probably are though im not ruling out that they could be ODST's. it will be interesting to see if bungie will follow the story of the spartans that went to CASTLE base as well as the other spartans and im very curious about their background as well, one thing i dont understand from the story was the surprise attack on Reach that was never mentioned in the book. i was not aware that there was a sort of first strike,
is it possible or probable that the game will be about a covie's launched a insurgent attack before the main fleet arrived at Reach and before the large ground invasion?

Yaeh another guess and yeah another fail...

no, the planet Reach is not in the edge of the galaxy... the ark was out of the galaxy and the chief didn't move from there no too far.... so.... there is no way the ending of Halo 3 is just and ending not a re start ok?, that planet was Forerunner... the same blue glow?? yes, so? there are thousands of planets... bungie likes to use the blue colour... there are a lot of explications IS NOT THE SAME PLANET

You got that right, the OP doesn't even know that Reach is not in the edge of the galaxy

  • 06.19.2009 10:05 AM PDT

has anybody actually read halo reach? anyway it should end with master chief in a cryo chamber aboard the Pillar of Autumn as it speeds away into slip space. (Halo wars tried to tweak story saying he departed from arcadia) but if you play the first level of halo combat evolved it clearly states they just departed from reach, also i always believed the end of halo 3 is probably the beginning of marathon (an older bungie game)
