No. Halo 3 won't have even started by the time ODST finishes, let alone got past the end to the point where a message has crossed at least a galaxy. You've got your timelines badly mixed up. There's no chance of it happening.

This apple is brown, and rotten. This orange on the other hand, is in relatively average shape. So the orange is definitely the preferable option.
----------You can't compare apples and oranges. You're so dumb.

btw they are makin a halo anime called halled legend an MC is in it set right after halo 3 so rookie dont get no beacon

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

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQ9EFgJ7vi0 just watch the beggining


1. Halo Legends consists of seven different stories. Set during various points in Halos universe.

2. To quote Frankie.

We don't go much further than the end of Halo 3.

Which suggests one of the seven animes, will go a little further than Halo 3s ending. But all seven do not take place after Halo 3. And I doubt any of them take place completely after Halo 3.

3. The image your talking about, shows a planet that clearly has folliage. Theres a ship moving away from the planet to the right. And a MAC cannon stationed to the left. Clearly not the legendary planet. Unless your talking about the footage, in the VERY begining. In which case, there are no ships at all in that footage. There are meteors floating away from the planet, if it is a planet. That might be the legendary planet, but we don't know for sure.

4. The ship can't land. The ship is riped in half, and is drifting through space. That ship can crash land, but it can't land.

5. In that footage, that Spartan, weither he is MC or not, is standing up next to a drop pod. Somehow, its hard for me to imagine that ship having working drop pods.

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

They are all the way in the gap between Milky Way Galaxy and another galaxy (near the ARK) and the UNSC/Allied Forces is NO-FING-WHERE NEAR THERE SO PLAY HALO 3 AND LISTEN TO THE FING BACKSTORY. OMG WHERE ARE THESE FINE GENTLEMEN* COMING FROM?!?!?!?!?!???!??!???!??!?!??


*= all you Halo Wars forumgoers know what I mean by FINE GENTLEMAN

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.


That's only assuming they know where the Chief is... which they don't. In fact, they don't even believe him to be alive.

Slipspace would make it less likely the Chief and Cortana would be found, I would think, as any ship that passes on a route directly through that area would simply bypass it without realising. Not that the UNSC have any reason to be wherever the hell the Chief is...

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.


Don't hate dude.... dang...... he was just askin on others opinion...... I think its kool but unlikely..... like some people are sayin that ODST happens 2 weeks before the start of Halo 3..... i think if they actually do an ending like that, ODST will have to be about 2-5 weeks long in campaign time..... to actually catch up to the time when MC and cortana are floating in space, or maybe 2 months even......

Maybe a Legendary ending.

actually I don't mean to extract the urine(take the -blam-) but get it right Cortana says it could take weeks, months even years to find them chief then says wake me when you need me game then ends I believe it to be unlikely but is possible as a downloadable level or something like hordes of flood versus you and chief.

but the way chief then lays down in the cryo-stasis chamber points to him being dead, his head is turned far to far to the side and his body looks rather loose.

that is one theory the other is that chief is just a really bloody deep sleeper (this would be more plausible as he does weigh more than 0.6 cubic tonnes.

I love Halo, I have played it since the beginning, even though I may not have had Xbox Live back then. Marathon is also a pretty good game.

Thank You Bungie! For the best games and Recon Armor. Also thanks for the early access to the Halo: Reach Beta!

This account was hacked and I now have a new account.

I do not appreciate B.Net Group solicitation. If you ignore this and send me an invitation anyway, I will block communications with you.

It all depends on where Cortana actually is. People seem to think that Cortana and MC are still by the Ark, which means that the beacon would not reach the Sol system for over 200,000 years.

I'm not likened to the idea that they are in an unknown location, so the beacon may or may not be picked up... and if it is, no, not by the Rookie.

Microsoft's carelessness was a colossal failure.
They failed to protect Halo 2,
When the great journey is upon us
Their heresy will stay their feet.
And they will be left behind.

Have you ever heard of epilogues?

Epilogues happen after a story.

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


I think he meant prologue.

No! Halo 3: ODST takes place weeks before they even drop the beacon!

  • 07.30.2009 6:35 AM PDT

Yeah that makes sense and then the Rookie makes friends with 2 Brutes and they take a covenent ship to find the Chief

  • 07.30.2009 6:37 AM PDT

The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space--each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision.

Halo ODST takes place right at the end of the new Mombasa level in halo 2. The Chief and Keys follow the covernant ship that jumps in the city to delta halo.

Please refer to this user video which shows the halo universe chronologically
