Ok so thats fairly obvious but the real thing to look at is our favourite game ever! Halo: CE. In the manual, page 4 some very interesting things are said.

"The year is 2552. Planet Earth still exists but overpopulation has forced many of her former residents to colonize other worlds. Faster-than-light travel is now a reality, and Earth's unified government, through the United Nations Space Command, has put its full weight behind the colonization effort; millions of humans now live on habitable planets in other solar systems. A keystone of humanity's colonization efforts is the planet Reach, an interstellar naval yard that builds colony ships for vivilians and warships for the UNSC's armed forces. Conveniently close to Earth, Reach is also a hub of scientific and military activity."

Skipping the Halo: CE applicable part to the interesting bit...

"On Reach, a secret military project to create cyborg super-soldiers takes on newfound importance. The soldiers of the SPARTAN-II project rack up an impressive record against the Covenant in test deployments, but there are too few of them to turn the tide of the war.

"Existing SPARTAN-II soldiers are recalled to Reach for further augmentation. The plan: board a Covenant vessel with the improved SPARTAN-IIs and learn the location of the Covenant home world. Two days before the mission begins, Covenant forces strike Reach and annihilate the colony. The Covenant are now on Earth's doorstep. One ship, the Pillar of Autumn, escapes with the last SPARTAN-II and makes a blind jump into deep space, hoping to lead the Covenant away from Earth."

My guess is that the planet in the Reach trailer was the planet Reach where the SPARTAN-II super-soliders were created and that the flood have gained hold of it shown in the legendary ending of Halo 3. The idea that this planet was a centre for building colony and military ships could suggest a REALLY BIG SUPER AWESOME DEATH FIGHT OF LAZORZ! between them or the scientific element may (as the music in the legnedary ending suggests) be an augmentation of the flood. Perhaps a whole bunch of SPARTAN-II flood!

BTW sorry if this caption was already found by someone else, once I read it i was way too excited to do anything but post it here (and facebook :P). Now i gotta play some Halo 3 to satisfy my appetite :D

Cheers

Happy Bungie Day

Don't post anything like this until youve read the Halo Novels.

You won't get bashed.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

That was a waste of time.

I said it before and ill say it again

*Super mega ultra uber FACE PALM*

Seriously mate read the books, i recommend starting with "Contact Harvest" written by Bungie's Writing Director Joesph Staten. The book is about the very first encounter between the UNSC and the Covenant, also stars Sgt Johnson so its definitely worth the read.

Ok, nice thread but makes no sence at all, read the novel The Fall of Reach and it will explain almost everything about Reach. Anyways Reach was Glassed after the battle.

IM A LEGIT 16

You know what I think?

I rhink that Halo 3: ODST will have ODSTs in it.

Crazy idea, I know, but I was really excited and wanted to post it.

Edit: It will also have ODST flood.

And lazors.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

Y'know what, I cannot knock you too much dude, there's a pretty large group of Halo fans that only have knowledge from the games. I would recommend reading The Fall of Reach and FIrst Strike. These will give you a good idea of possible settings and scenarios for the new game, and also strengthen your understanding of the Halo Universe as a whole.

Firstly: DUH!
Secondly: Halopedia has at least one fairly sick contributor, as when I last went on there, there was info on how to shoot miranda keyes in halo 2 so she screams, And finally, They did'nt glass all of the planet, because the spartans on reach managed to escape.

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

I was under the impression that it was a planet made of Cheese.
