Below are a compilation of theories from the ideas and influences of others. The Halo 3 Legendary planet will be abbreviated as "H3LP"
HALO: REACH THEORIES
Planet features
+H3LP:
-"Forerunner type" Structures
-Star: Blue
-Species: Unknown
+[features from theories]
-Has an atmosphere capable of supporting human life
+Reach [before glassing]
-Human built structures
-Star: Red
-Species: Human
-Oxygen Rich Atmosphere
+[features after Covenant classing]
*note*: After the Glassing the Planet was incapable of supporting life, it as no atmosphere.
Connection?
+Verdict
The two planets have different colored stars, % of star change in the time span of 6-7 months is LOW. Reach also had no atmosphere after the glassing so it would be uncuttable of supporting life, even if the 6-7 months between Reach and Halo 3 provided enough time to form features allowing it to support life, the pioneer species would have to be capable of creating forerunner structures. With the large amount of evidence against the theory is is most likely that the planets are not connected
+What this means
Even if time travel did occur before the Halo 3 Ending the planets Reach and H3LP don't match up, so Chief wont be landing on Reach before the War to "correct the past". The Planet could be anything:
Theories
+TIme Travel believers:
-Onyx (before destruction)
-Forerunner planet (home to the actual Forerunner)
+No Time Travel
-Forerunner planet that has been deserted OR has forerunner living on it
+Both
Chief lands on a Forerunner system, after fighting through guards the forerunner notice he is the reclaimer and that he needs help, they then send chief back in time TO REACH
Reach with no correlation to H3LP
If Halo: Reach truly has nothing to do with H3LP or the 42 year old Master Chief then we can most likely expect a game based on the battle of Reach and the death of many Spartans. *remember* the Reach "slogan" about knowing the ending at the beginning doesn't mean the characters in the game have to know, just you. This "slogan" can mean two things A Prequel OR Time Travel, the characters all having knowledge of the "end".
Which makes a better game? (Vote using the poll above)
Game Play
+Time Travel:
This game would feature Master Chief going back in time to Reach
How?
-H3LP is a Forerunner planet (back when they created the Halos), they either send you to Reach (the game may start off with a confused fight with the Forerunner until you come to terms)
-H3LP is a Forerunner planet that has been deserted (you are currently still in the "current time", you find a slip space crystal and "time teleport device" and use it to get to reach before the war.(game
-H3LP is a Forerunner planet (you are currently still in the "current time") The Forerunner find you and help you get to Reach.
(in all these options gameplay would be that of correcting the past and saving your fellow spartans)
+No time Travel
-A game that is based on the War on Reach, fighting alongside your group of spartans.
(A game type similar to the ODST flashback "play as your squad" feature. You could go along fighting the war on reach with different skills until It ends, and your friends die, providing that the game ends with you as MC.)
Thank you, Collective Criticism and Theory ideas are always welcome.
