no they covered all the spartans all of them were accounted for. bungie killed off spartan 1s spartan 2s (cheif and blue team all them) bungie either killed off or never made an ending for. but their stories continue throught out the battle of reach. some people have thought they where spartans 3s but they never finished their training before the battle for reach. or other reasons they were never combat active.
Ok I can't let this one go by. You have no idea what you're talking about. Bungie didn't kill off all the Spartan II's. The blue team is in a Dyson Sphere inside the planet Onyx. There were Spartan III's. They were being trained on Onyx. Alpha company were all killed in a battle. Beta company were all killed in a battle except Tom and Lucy who are with the Spartan II Blue team in the Dyson Sphere.
Read the books.

"Wow! You've seen other life-bearing planets in the universe?! Someone call NASA!I like how you keep ignoring the mathematics I put into it. When I prove that you wouldn't be able to see the MAC cannons because they're 1/112,500 the planet's size, you come back with "its missing the vital MAC cannons that covered the orbit of reach!".

If you're really going to argue that the picture isn't the Pillar of Autumn because "There should be wreckage", then I've got nothing else to say. Arguing with you is a waste of time."

never said that it wasnt the autum dude but there WAS a battle going on while they escaped. yes NASA has pictures of a planet thats very similar to Earth look it up

Frost: im waiting on ghost of onyx to come in the mail not everyone has a high end bookstore near them but from what ive picked up the dyson sphere is stuck in slip space and very very very very very tiny there for those spartans had there ending....

You've gotten your answer. They are large of course, but not large enough to see from the view in the trailer.

I meant to say "If you're really going to argue that the picture isn't the Pillar of Autumn escaping Reach.."

And again you ignore the math I put into it.

You must be a little kid or something, because NASA has never taken a picture of a life-bearing planet before. The only discovery of other planets are ones where the use radial velocity and the doppler method to measure the pull the planet has on it's star while it orbits.

There have been 374 extra-solar planets found, ZERO of them are confirmed "Earth-like", and none of them have pictures taken in the visible light spectrum.

AVG

honestly i think this thread is fail

mac guns are destroyed, the trailer could have easiliy shown what happened after the guns were destroyed, and i doubt youd be able to see them from outer space. The planet was on fire and looked to be as if half of it had already been glassed.

no point to this thread, just another useless argument that i dont want to waste my time on.

alright you caught me im a bored freshman with nothing to do but argue with people i dont know on a subject no one knows ANYTHING about! you cant deny that the basics for life are the same across the universe water sunlight basics you know thats why earth has life we just got lucky. ok ive done what math a freshman can do maybe the MACs would appear as specks BUT you still have to acknolage the fact the battle happend a long way from reaches atmosphere so thier must be wreckage its an essential part of the battle i see 1 peice of junk MAC or Frigate doesnt matter UNSC's fleet was DECIMATED!!! There really should be more. the covies didnt land, glass, nuke, or whatever the surface until at least halfway through the battle those explosions went off at the start of the battle

my logic is undieniable (maybe a lil)
oh and the explosion was toward the eqautor of the planet the covies started at the poles

Man, we've seen 1 trailer. No doubt they'll show us the battle and the wreckage in the game.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME GROUP INVITATIONS

The Halo REACH Script (post thoughts in thread)

Writing Lead of Whisper Studios. Check out Heron!

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

We saw something that was probably Gamma Station... in the teaser, we hear the FERMION and Gamma Station from TFoR communicating. It's possible that the smoke-spewing construct that looms into view early on is Gamma Station.

The smoke coming out could be produced by Blue Team's Pelican exploding to open the Chief and Linda an entrance into the inside. The body floating in space may be James after he was knocked off the station.

The reason we probably didn't see any Orbital MAC Cannons was because they are millions of miles apart... in an image of the Earth from orbit you couldn't make out the Internation Space Station unless you were close in and focusing in on it.

In one of the ODST ViDocs when Buck is thinking back to the planets which were glassed by the Covenant, when he says "Reach," Bungie uses a clip from the Halo REACH teaser...

  • 09.29.2009 5:07 PM PDT

i agree. but i like to say im not saying that reach will not be featured in the game just the planet in the trailer is not reach. also the 1st trailer tells ALOT about a game we,ve seen this in alot of trailers. little tiny things in the trailers that only after the game releases that you put together.

i understand that cheehwawa, i never saw a body floating from the station? ill increase the resolution on my computer and look for it but the mac cannons were not millions of miles apart they where clusted 2-5 probably millions miles apart between clusters though. even you should agree this was one of the largest space combat between the humans and the covies there should be wrecage and the explosion on the eqauter theory

In peace sons bury their fathers, in war fathers bury their sons.

Omg simplicity is a *****

It's an Earth sized planet. Trying to see a MAC gun in the trailer with the naked eye would be like trying to see the International Space Station in this picture.

Ghosts of Onyx came out about 3 years ago so you have no excuse. Amazon.com is a high-end book company. They were already combat active during Reach. Alpha company was graduated in like 2530 something and Beta was a few years after that. They were considered a success in battles. They won a lot of battles. The Spartans in Beta company were all killed in a battle except Tom and Lucy. Alpha company Spartans were all killed in a battle. Gamma company was training on Onyx when the sentinals became active.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Posted by: chickenlittle
Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

The cannons are in very high orbit. The camera in the video was much closer to the planet.
Note that in Halo 2, on the Cairo, you can't make out any fine details of Earth, and Earth is relatively far away. The camera is somewhere between that point and Earth. They're there, you just can't see them.

1.
"with people i dont know on a subject no one knows ANYTHING about!"

Other people in this -blam!- thread do indeed know about life, the universe, Halo, and Reach (or Halo:REACH).

2.
"you cant deny that the basics for life are the same across the universe water sunlight basics you know thats why earth has life we just got lucky."

The stuff needed for life is pretty much the same; but, the latter part of your sentence/thing there is an opinion.

Your ability to think may not be the same as another persons. (I don't know where the battle began so no comment). Depending on Reach's gravity and where the wreckage went (if there even was any, total ownage maybe?), you may not have been able to see it close to the planet.

Oh and I forgot to say. The whole Dyson Sphere thing happens months after Reach was glassed. Blue team was on Reach, they escaped, met up with MC who had stolen a Covenant ship, blew up a giant ship with hundreds of other ships around it that were about to jump to Earth, went back to Earth, Blue team was then sent to Onyx.

  • 09.29.2009 5:20 PM PDT

Returebution is key

good fellow, your forgetting reach is a planet, planets are big, they spin too!

  • 09.29.2009 5:23 PM PDT

Finally!! A person that actually read the book and knows what they are talking about.

You can get it for less than $10 on Amazon with shipping included. timeline and summary of Ghosts of OnyxIf money is tight then you should be worried about finding a job and not what this $60 game is about.
