I think it would be awesome if they strayed from the books and make the playing more towards master chief BUT....
If they did go with the books there would be a good chance that there would be more halo installations...

i would like to hear what you guys think about this thought and if you have any input.

I dont think so. Bungie will stay true to the story. This is not going to be a halo wars story.

This apple is brown, and rotten. This orange on the other hand, is in relatively average shape. So the orange is definitely the preferable option.

The game isn't going to intentionally conflict with the books.
Great effort to retain continuity is probably being taken. That being said, I would be suprised if the whole game, centered around events, from the battle of Reach, as we know it.

I think the game, will even stray beyond Reach, and to other planets in the same system. Namely one or both of the two planets (one planet and one moon?), faintly in the backdrop in the trailer. Which suspiciously look like planets, seen in Halo 3 MP maps.

One of the planets looks pretty plain. The other has a ring like saturn. The plain planet (moon?) looks to be the planet Sandbox takes place on. With the saturn like planet, being in Sandboxes skybox.

Both planets are seen in Heretics skybox. Where we see a Covenant fleet converging on the saturn like planet.

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!

As in changing the story (i.e. making the Chief fight on the surface, or Sam having not died 20+ years before)? No.

As in not following the same POV from the battle of Reach in the novels (John/Blue Team in TFoR or Fred/Alpha/Delta Team in FS)? For sure.
