By now I'm sure most of you have seen the GameTrailers interview.

The following is from the video interveiw by GameTrailers.com's Geoff Keighley, with Bungie Studios, Joseph Staten. It takes place between 19:12 and 19:37 of this video.

Keighley: "What else are you exited for?"
Staten: "Well we did the Covenant side of the story in Halo 2, which was... Which was pretty fun to do. Ummm..."
Keighley: "That big twist."
Staten: "That big twist, and I think, you know, looking forward into the future, uhhh... we're really exited about telling the story with maybe, more Spartans in it."
Keighley: "Right."
Staten: "We haven't said a lot about Reach, but you know, that's certainly an interesting direction to go, where it's not... it's not just the Master Chief."
Keighley: "There is accually a squad."
Staten: "You bet, I think, without any of of baggage of sort of squad based combat, I think that would be a safe assumption."

Now the thing that popped out for me is:

Keighley: "What else are you exited for?"
Staten: "Well we did the Covenant side of the story in Halo 2, which was... Which was pretty fun to do. Ummm..."


Covenant campaign? I hope. And this defiantly supports the theory of there being one in Halo: Reach.

But this time I think that there should just be two different campaigns, not one that intertwines the two.

Opinions?

That doesn't support one at all.

All he was saying is that it was fun. Just because he stuttered doesn't mean Reach has a Covie campaign.

You have no rights, play nice.

I like your theory. It a well thought out one at that. I myself wouldn't mind playing as a Covenant. I think it would be pretty cool



Also deleted, there is no proof that there won't be a covenant campaign in Reach.

Mmm. I love that logic.

Ok, there is also no proof that it will be in the game either. This is not proof. Neither is anything else you may think is.

He said it right after, "What else are you exited for?"
Why would he say it if it had nothing to do with Reach, it would be completely irrelevant, it at least hints at the possibility of a Covenant campaign.

I never said that there was proof. All I said was that it supports the theory.

No, he was setting himself up for talking about a more Spartan oriented campaign. Saying that while the Covie campaign was fun, it will also be fun to do one with more Spartans,

Your right deleted. No proof there will be a covenant campaign, no proof there wont be. We just have to wait and see, won't we?

I don't know if you understand the concept of quotes, but I wasn't talking to you.

Yup.

Don't get me wrong, I love speculation threads.

But they should at least have some legit speculation in them based on given information.

Ok, I didn't read the quote thoroughly, my bad.

Mine doesn't?

  • 09.13.2009 3:27 PM PDT

App l sawz does have a point. Bungie admitted to having fun when making the covenant campaign. And when Joseph Staten mentioned that, it could lead to a lot of speculation, such as this thread.

This is just you taking what he said out of context. Not deducing something based on actual information.

And once again I said why that is not evidence.

Yeah, ok, I still don't see why he would bring it up if they weren't exited about doing it again with Reach.

Because he was using it as an example of an exciting thing they have done with the campaign in past Halo games, comparing it to having more Spartans in Reach.

Stop arguing, and just give ideas, imagine a side-campaign about Covies, The Arbiter!!!

  • 09.13.2009 4:03 PM PDT

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

I'd like to see a Covenant campaign. Not just a Covenant side to the campaign, but a Human Campaign, then a Covenant campaign. A full ten hour campaign. Something with just as much weight as the human campaign.

Ok, I see your point now. Either way I'm sure most, if not all of us, want a Covenant campaign.

I <3 you, Shishka.

www.cheathappens.com/default.asp?refid=67880

I've wanted Bungie to make a Covenant Campaign game ever since I learned about ODST. It would be quite amazing to learn more about the Lore of the Covenant.

  • 09.13.2009 5:20 PM PDT

Halo:Reach looks awesome

I hope there will be two diffrent campaings not mixed like in h2

  • 09.13.2009 5:39 PM PDT

If somebody's opinion is being smashed and nobody's helping, I try and help. I use logic and extensive vocabulary (and sometimes self-destructive circular reasoning) to confuse my enemies into submission. Fear me, trolling, fapping creatures of the night. For I. Am your worst nightmare.

Here guys I started a thread like this a while ago so I guess i'll bring it up again
