that would be cool but kind of unlikely

and we would be able to finally hear the rookies voice!

- Walk in peace -

I think not. I might have missed something in your post though but Halo 3: ODST occurs during Halo 2 many weeks (months?) before MC and Cortana are in space floating around and having fun.

Only if the beacon can travel back in time.

Have you ever heard of epilogues?

Epilogues happen after a story.

Halo 3: ODST ends before the Chief reaches the next Halo, presumably.

And my army of brothers went over the hilltops, drenched in blood we may be.... but fighting is all left to me....together with my army of brothers...down we fall....darkness in all..through hell...

Wait a minute Cortana's bacon!?

i dont think it will happen the way you describe it. cause if the rookie finds the becon he would alert the unsc and then they would look for the chief not just the rookie by him self. and i dont think the whole game would switch between perspectives either. face it guys MC and cortana are gonna be lost for a while just enjoy this game and reach for a while.

I want to see a source for your claim about the anime's setting.

Halo 3: ODST occurs about 2 weeks before Halo 3. Truth is still alive, MC is still fighting, and the Elites are everywhere besides where you are...

in the trailer you can see piece of forward unto dawn hurdling towards an unknown planet that looks like the one at the end halo 3. you also see him arise from the ship after it lands

That beacon hasn't been sent yet.

And regarding the Halo: Legends thing from Major's Minute, it seems very likely from that off-screen footage that the Future of Chief (Post Halo 3) will be covered in one of the shorts.

  • 07.25.2009 5:40 AM PDT

No, you do know that Halo 3: ODST is a prequel, right?

  • 07.25.2009 12:33 PM PDT

maybe at the end of the game you recieve a new mission (this would be the next game and half wat throught that game you would get the chief's becon) i say this becuse getting to the chief would be to short a game

  • 07.25.2009 12:40 PM PDT

I don't see how we would get the beacon.

Halo 2 occured in October of 2552.
Halo 3 ends in March of 2553.

That would make ODST a long game.

only because they're lost in space. a UNSC ship could fly by them the next day and they'll be found, but it's unlikely

Incorrect.
Slipspace has the power to shorten the distance between two objects from years down to weeks.
So it would still take several weeks for them to be found and picked up.

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"

this isnt going to happpen. mc is lightyears away, while the odsts are still on earth. also seeing as odst takes place during halo 2, the time points are waaay off.

If he survives ODST and is present post-Halo 3 then....

Maybe.

Would be cool though. Although for obvious reasons it would not happen DURING ODST. But after. The Rookie's the character in subject after all. Not the game

Four shots, four kills, reload, repeat. This is the work of a sniper.

Damn it I accidentally clicked maybe, meant no. Dude, that's so unlikely its not even funny. It's one of those stupid 8 year old ideas that they think are so genius, or it sounds like that to me.
