Subject: Reach to set the story for "Halo4"

I thought Halo: Reach could have some potential, since they'll bascially just get Halo3 and make it bigger, better, and more addicting. So i thought, maybe Reach could somehow set the story for the actual sequel for Halo3. Like how would it sound that once Reach ended some spartans went to Onyx or some planet that Master Chief was driffting off too, and then it did some fast fowarding, and showed Cortana waking up Master Chief. Then he gets out, and the game ends, giving a good setting for a future "Halo 4". I just thought that would be a cool idea, give out some ideas of your own.

Armor Lock isn't overpowered. You just suck at Reach :)

Reach isn't bad, you're just a BK :)

For my gamertag, look up "Ghoulishtie"

1 flaw.

It's called Halo: Reach. Not Halo: Onyx.

Besides, Onyx was destroyed.

I realized.
I ment that it should take place IN Reach, but end on another planet, preferably the one that Master Chief floats to. It could be Reach since it wasn't COMLETELY decimated. idk just throwing out ideas.

the covenant finish what they start. Cruisers were left on Reach to finish the job -mostly the ones NOT in Half-Jaw's command ("I followed with all the ships in my command" to Halo)

I don't think it's really setting a start for "Halo4", it's more like a history review of what was going on before halo started, i think they should make a halo 4, because i want to know what happened to the chief and cortana! Hopefully the game would be twice as better or even.

  • 07.15.2009 4:14 AM PDT

The original BADFINGER! (the second)

pretty sure its confirmed as a sequel.

Why would they use the ending as a set up for Halo 4(or whatever it will be titled), when halo 3 already set it self up for a possible return later on???

Hopefully we dont see Halo 4 for atleast another 4 to 5 years. Give it time to grow and get awesome-er! and bring it out on the next Xbox

Actually you may wanna see this: Reach

If you read the beginning it clearly states that Reach was MOSTLY glassed.

C&H

the spartans bailed from reach once they had the artifact the forerunners left behind and i dont think it is mentioned when they leave reach wheather or not the covenant destroyed reach.

If they didnt destroy reach then this may give reason for another forum post beliefs that you may play as a group of spartan II's that graduated after master chiefs class did.
You could be exploring reach looking for survivors or researching the forerunner artifacts.

I doubt it would set up Halo 4, this may start its own series like Halo:reach series or Halo:onyx or somethng (^ thats a lame idea i know but i am just guessing).

I kind of hope to see this game play out like the starwars clone commander game except you can take controll over individual characters.

But after Master Chief left with the Crystal the Covenant probably glassed the rest of it.

there cant be a halo 4 because to our knowledge all the Spartans are dead, covenant are dead, the only people alive is the humans, elites, the master chief and cortana. P.S halo reach is classed as a sepual because its the next game. even if its based in the past which it is. i think :)

Reach was NOT completely glassed bc. of the spartans that survived on it after the almost complete glassing

Not completely, except for a very small spot. Read the book, it'll tell you what is in that spot.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

You DESPERATELY need to read the books (And Thel 'Vadam (the Arbiter) said that, not Rtas 'Vadum (Half-Jaw))

Anyway, the planet the Chief is drifting towards is not Reach because it is obviously of Forerunner design (Reach was colonized by Humans). And Onyx was destroyed, so it can't be Onyx. However, it could tie into Onyx in that it could be a Shield World with a Slipspace pocket that connects directly to the one Dr. Halsey, and her Spartans are in. (The only reason I don't believe this is the case is because Chief Mendez is with the Spartans, and in Fall of Reach it clearly stated that Mendez and the Master Chief would never meet again)

I just recently read through all the books, I just couldnt recall if they finished the job.

Two points:
1. Bungie confirmed there will never be a Halo 4.
2. After the events of The Fall of Reach/First Strike the Covenant proceeded to glass the rest of Reach.

1) Bungie does not own the rights to Halo, so it's not their call to make. I think as long as Microsoft wants to make a new Halo FPS, they will want Bungie to do it.
2) Thank you, I'm glad someone pointed out that possibility, although it is never confirmed.

  • 07.15.2009 11:20 AM PDT

Well i have only read a little bit of the book (the fall of Reach) but what kind of covenant destroyed reach like was it the Elites or Brutes cause if the covenant is still their could they know that the elites are allied with the humans and if not would they capture mc?

The Peace Maker

Here's my theory, The game "Reach" will most likely revolve around the battle for Reach itself which occured right before the Halo story Arc. This means we may get to play as another Spartan II (or Spartans) and get to witness the story unfold until the planet is lost. As far as setting the stage for the events after Halo 3...no.
MC was last seen drifting out side of the milky way, to what clearly appears to be a forerunner planet (with the ominous screech of the flood in the background.) The year cannot be for certain but shouldn't be too far off. A nice twist would be for the Chief to land, find that the flood somehow followed the forerunner to this planet and erradicated them. We could see new, different types of flood forms (like in Halo Wars) and the abilty to use forerunner weapons! All in FPS of course.
Finally to address the possibility of a remake of Coagulation in the last map pack, im willing to bet yes. If i know Bungie, the icing on the cake would be to release an awesome remake of the map that started it all on the anniversary of Halo: Combat Evolved. Nice.

My main account.

This is an alt.

As I recall, Bungie stated that they won't have any more games in the Halo Trilogy. And that Master Chief won't be the main protagonist in any of the other Halo games. But your idea does sound kinda cool, except for the fact that Halo 3 happens a good time after Reach. A year or two? I don't know.
