In the book Fall of Reach Fred, Joshua, and Kelly attempt to take out the covenant cruiser that is dropping troops and supplies off and making things a living hell for the spartans. As we all know Joshua dies, by a "needler turret" and kelly manages to throw a nuke into the grav lift and the ship goes boom, now i was wondering whether or not this would be more enjoyable as a cutscene or an actual playable event or compromise and go for a quick time event?

I think playing as several characters would be some added fun, it sounds like it could be a fairly fun mission concept but you'd have to see how it meshes with everything else they're adding.

Id like a combo, You have to fight your way up to the ship in an epic fight and then when you reach teh grav lift it gose to a cut scene.

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

First of all... that doesn't happen in The Fall of Reach. It happens in First Strike.

Secondly... I don't think we will be following the PoV of Fred... I think this game will be about Spartan-259 (either a member of Team Beta, or a Class 2 of Spartan-IIs), so we wouldn't see that... though I would still love to blow up a Covenant ship. Like by going to the reactor and setting it off, then escaping....

Still First Strike has events in Reach, just after the chief escapes Halo, so you weren't totally wrong.

No one knows yet if the game Reach, follows the story of Fall of reach, it might follow also, first strike, so you can state he's wrong at all.

He was talking about a scene from First Strike, but he believed it happened in The Fall of Reach.
