Subject: Crazy Theory, Dont hate just think.

Future game designer.

So this is my Halo Reach theory:

When master chief is floating inside the wrecked ship after halo 3, his AI (Cortana) comes online. When Cortana comes online that means that 117 is able to receive radio communications. We see the planet at the end of halo 3 and many people suspect this as being Reach. Then during the Trailer (Reach) you see a similar planet. Now maybe what you hear during the Reach trailer is the communications that Chief starts picking up. Maybe the glassed planet is in fact already lost and we pick up somewhere around first strike. Keep in mind there is still spartans alive, 70 i believe. If Chief picked up those radio calls then he would probably be extremely confused (He saves a major colony, destroys massive armys of enemies, travels through space then ends up in half a ship sometime in the past? that's alot to take on),


I actually personally just thought this up, and don't follow it too much, haha, but i wanted to throw something else out there.

I believe that Master Chief will be in Reach (90% percent Positive) and that it will be a prequel. And that's also my hope. Reach was a great book, and is full of action. I'd love to reenact some of those epic events, like the meeting of the first hunter. Whatever bungie decides to do im sure that they will do a great job, they never fail to impress me. Halo 3 still beats out many new releases. But all well, I'm sure this post will get hate, but i'd love to hear some good responses and some constructive thinking towards what you want to see in Reach.

Thanks a lot guys,
Texx

Dude, I've had this idea since Reach was announced. Hell, A LOT of people had this theory already. Nothing new. And yes, it's VERY possible.

Just enjoy the damn game!
Who cares about BR vs AR

Why do people think both planets look the same? Most planets look the same, they are mostly sphere shaped, and as the Legendary Ending Planet is shadowed, no features are visible.
Plus, how unlikely is it that the route from Earth to the Ark passes by Reach?

Very possible that a 7-foot tall supersoldier is spontaneously transported to the past with no explanation, other than "teh ships got cutted in half"? It is also possible that there is a tiny china teapot orbiting the sun.

Fact 2: European guys are hotter

I guess I can understand if you don't want to make out with guys in the US if they're so ugly, you should just say so though.

Impossible, actually.

The game is confirmed to be a prequel, if it is a prequel, that means events happened before Halo 3. So if chief travels back in time, then the event would still happen after halo 3, therefore it would be a sequel.

Reach IS awesome, don't deny it

The way im reading this is that he gets the transmissions and has a flashback of fighting on Reach?

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?

Chief will be in there, of course, but chances are he won't be called Master Chief because he hasn't been promoted yet.
Or something like that.

He was, Reach's fall was just before CE so he was already the rank Master Chief petty officer, heck all spartans were that rank but 117 was grade 1, others were grade 2. Or the other way around : /

No, he John 117 is Master Chief Petty Officer. That is why he is called Master Chief, not because he is a hot shot

I really dont see how you disagreed with me there O.o All spartans were that rank however John was a grade above everyone else as he was named the Spartans leader essentially

  • 08.25.2009 10:39 AM PDT

John is Master Chief Petty Officer while the other Spartan IIs are mostly Petty Officer Second Class which is below MCPO. The only Spartan IIs I can think of that are neither of those 2 ranks are Fred(Lieutenant) and Kurt(Lieutenant Commander) which are higher ranking than MCPO.

If you want I will even list the ranks of all Known Spartan IIs.

I've been mad for freaking years, absolutely years, been over the edge for yonks, been working me buns off for bands...I've always been mad, I know I've been mad, like the most of us...very hard to explain why you're mad, even if you're not mad...

Bungie already said no time traveling, and realistically if Chief did go back in time to Reach, the events of Halo, Halo 2, and Halo 3 would have occurred differently, or not occurred at all creating a paradox.

They act all big and tough when their on camera with their friends and their guns. But when you break into their house in the middle of the night and stick a gun barrel in their face. They cry like babies and and piss their pants.

Uhm, no he was still at the Rank of master cheif petty officer when the covenant invaded. What most people seem to forget is that Reach fell a couple of weeks before Halo CE which was then like a couple weeks/months to Halo 2.
