EVEN PEOPLE THAT DONT KNOW WHATS HALO KNOW THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE A HALO 4!!!!!! Just to get it straight, Bungie is working in Reach now, then, its over. Dont you think?


Tell me, hon your honor, did you read everything I said?

1. Bungie said there last Halo game would be Halo: 3. This means there could be one after Reach.

2. Of course I don't think that because I just made an entire thread explaining WHY there will be a Halo 4. The best of its kind in fact if I do say so myself.

3. You have nothing to back up your argument which is basically "DER WILL B NO HALO 4 SILLY!"

4. And who said it would be by Bungie, but of course Bungie would be the best suited for it.


Speculation:
Its funny you mention a 4th Halo game, I foresaw it back when they launched 3. I mean the only way to complete the series by now is to launch a 4th and final finishing piece to the main puzzle with the Chief and Cortana. After which I would not be surprised to see a Trilogy set for the titles 1-3 for the 360 and PC. Maybe in the Trilogy set they would add new content and features that didn't exist before too in either version.

I know Bungie stated that they worked on the meat of the halo series, but they always had 343 working along side in the background with them after the first game completed. I think so because I bought the Legendary Set for 3 and watched all if the DVD behind the scenes stuff, which had a reference by Joesph Staten about 343 being their true backbone for Halo. in the end it will all pan out perhaps better than we can all expect. Of course not everyone will be completely happy but that is to be expected with as popular as Halo became.

I do concur that Bungie is the better suitor for the IP series, but its now completely up to 343 now, lets hope for the best in the near future. Also, I'm surprised about the amount of detail you paid to. Nice work. I may let you into a project I'm needing help with, its related in heavy to Halo. PM me if you get a chance.

I didn't read all of it, but looking at what MB left, it is almost like Master Chief could end up where the whole Flood war started, that planet in the legendary ending may be it. Or thanks to the portal our hero could have landed back in time and hence MB will use Spartan 117 as his example of Atonement.

Most people who play Halo don't know what a Forerunner is, a lot of my friends think the Covenant made the Halo rings, and that the Flood were a Covenant experiment gone wrong.

A game about the Forerunners would be confusing enough, bring the Precursors into it and everyone would be confused.

If they do sequels to Halo 3, they should be set a few months after, with you clearing up the last remnants of the Covenant; after all, High Charity and it's fleet can't have been all that remained.


Bungie has stated that they are done with Halo after "Reach," are also working on a non-Halo project, so if a sequel is made it will likely fall under the hands of another company, perhaps with some Bungie insight.
343
Mmm, I like 343, they are kind like the liaison between Microsoft and Bungie. I might like a halo game if 343 does it, the cut scene's for Halo Wars were amazing, and depicted spartan's as if it was right from Eric Nylund himself. As long as ensemble studios doesn't make another RTS, we'll be fine, but I have a real wait-and-see attitude when it comes to what happens next for halo.

Some can come away from reading "War and Peace" thinking it a simple adventure story, while others can read the ingredients on a gum wrapper and unlock the secrets of the universe.

Or possibly even older, but everything is possible at this point. Im adding a thing considering origins. It proved the portal could change coordinates extremely quickly.

343 or not, here's something Ive been pondering. What happens when they pick up the Game from 3 Legendary ending. Instead of a massive ring, Chief probably gets to blow up the architect's (last?) Forerunner planet aka "Shield World", its probably similar to the Shield World planet we saw in Halo Wars in the ending. Just maybe not infested with flood? or what? I see a big Grey area there even with what has been said already. In the 4th final game with Chief what do you foresee as a new or reoccurring enemy? Maybe Gravemind is back? and Chief wants some kinda revenge? Maybe the Brutes are getting nearly wiped out? and by the human alliance maybe for the most part of the game until it meets up with chief and the fights with Grave mind?

All that is pure speculation, but its possible. Especially if they wanted to finish the Chief's story and go a new direction to continue the expanse that is the Haloverse. Lets hear what else we can think up good or bad sky's the limit.

We believe that the universe is unbounded: this is not the same as infinite: the 2-D surface of a sphere, wrapped around a 3rd dimension, has a finite size, but has no end. If you start off in a given direction on the surface of a sphere, you could return to your start point without having to turn around -- you simply go all the way around. But wouldn't that mean the universe has an escape velocity like the earth?

Perhaps this will help

Continuation of Halo Series beyond 2015

Pretty much confirms that the Master Chief/Cortana Storyline is not finished yet, and that Legendary Planet...is well more special than we think.

I made this thread to provide evidence of a Halo sequel from the plots of the previous games and books, not the whole money to be made argument and related topics. Thats the reason this made TFT.

Now if you could provide a sound argument about why it should be in the OP, I may consider it. In fact i'll make a complete section on it that you can head. If you can sway the mind of Agustus, whos thoughts are set in stone, anchored to his skull.

Thus far, many have tried. And thus far, only one has succeeded.

Thus far the relevance is key and perhaps you are wise enough to accept the words of a Legend within Bungie.net. But anyway, When you say you created this thread to provide evidence of a sequel of such (Halo 4) using facts and evidence from previous sources, that is what makes me consider the link relevant as it also provides a source from Bungie that tells the world that the MC/Cortana Storyline is not over.

You may or may not use my link, but I thought that the link was something that truly supports your evidence and goes so far as to almost confirm a Halo 4.

P.S. Arguments are my biggest strength, and I always love a good debate from time to time as well, but not enough to turn threads into flame wars.

Yes but this threads specifically for the purpose of arguing the story elements of a Halo squeal. There have been many a threads arguing the other point, involving links like yours. They failed for a reason. They aren't nearly as interesting as mind and as thought provoking. Why should I change my strategy now?

tl;dr

I think there will be a Halo 4. After Bungie makes some more games in a different Bungie-verse and then returns to the now old Halo series (kind of like how Marathon is "old" now)

Change is not what I asked for, what I suggest is broaden the topic so more people become interested. And since i think you refer to "squeal" as "sequel", id gladly share my opinion, but risking making my theory look similar to others makes me disdainful...

just throwing something out there,even if master chief doesn't come back or if bungie isn't even making a halo 4 and give the series to some other company to deal with, they should do something about them finding another covenant fleet or a covenent planet or made planet much like the rings but.... circular, and the UNSC opening up the SPARTAN program again for one last time that would be awesome....

Sorry, but I'd laugh if after you made like 50 of these posts, somebody said a sentence, like "Your wrong because this did that"

And was true

I'd laugh

No offence


AWESOME!

What I liked about bungies halo is how music is used the sculpt the surroundings, and halo wars lacked it, and it suffers immensly

That is just Mendicant Bias speaking the the Master Chief, telling him he seeks atonement for dooming the forerunners, and risking the Galaxy.

As for the "YOU ARE NOT READY, NOT YET" It's simply telling you to come back on legendary difficulty to read the full message.

I think what he means with "Fraught with peril" and "Holding it together" implies he is trying to hold the Halo ring together as you escape, that is why there is a path you an follow to escape.


1. You are correct about seeking atonement. But its the wording.
2. Did you not read what I had to say on the last terminal? It makes no sense because YOU DO NOT NEED TO KILL ANYTHING YET.


Thank you for your time.

:D

I agree with Arbiduck for two reasons.

1. I think you're a little full of yourself, delusions of grandeur and what not. Some of your theories just circle back into themselves and go absolutely nowhere. For example, the above statement. The terminals on "Halo" (the last level) are strictly bound to Halo 3 the game, and when MB states "You are not worthy, not yet" it's simply referring to the fact that you have to come back on Legendary. In terms of not killing anything, technically all the terminals can be accessed with no Covenant casualties.

2. No video game developer in the history of time (save for the holy Bioware, who's staff is comprised of PHD english majors) has ever created such an intricate plot. Plus, seeing the shamble of a story Halo 3 was, I'm skeptical of anything that comes out of the Halo franchise at this point.


1. You can't assume im full of myself from that one post, I simply did not see the point of the comment as I had already acknowledged it, and it was practically just restated.

You can get to all the terminals without Covenant casualties? What game where you playing?

Terminal one. You have to fight throw 2 areas of Covenant. Number 2 is later in the level (The Ark). After you fight throw Covenant armor, clear the landing area for the Frigate, and break into the wall. Then destroy a Scarab, clear even more Covenant armor. Plus fight your way up to the spire, inside where you must sneak around killing sleeping and patrolling Covenant.

Do I have to keep going? ""All terminals can be accessed with no covenant casualties" my ass. Even if you could magically run through all those parts (many doors are locked until you kill everybody though) it only proves my point. You don't have to do anything. Just go back to the main menu, switch to legendary, and Tada!

2. No video game developer in the history of time (save for the holy Bioware, who's staff is comprised of PHD english majors) has ever created such an intricate plot. Plus, seeing the shamble of a story Halo 3 was, I'm skeptical of anything that comes out of the Halo franchise at this point.

My usual response to something like this would be "BLASPHEMY!", but I thought I would change it up a little.

You haven't played Marathon have you? 'Cause I somehow don't think you've played every video game in the history of time.

I was about to say that you have created a theory around the terminals, and that fits them all. However, it may not be the case, as the terminals were all to do with bungies marathon series, so it may not be the case.

Also, I don't think ANYBODY would work out your theory even if it is correct, even bungie.

"Dead" Spartans and meeting the forerunners sounds cool, but remember when battling 343 guilty spark in level Halo before he enters a rampant state he says to johnson "You are forerunner" which kinda makes your theory even more complicated.

Id love it, but it won't happen.

Sorry
