Bow chica Bow wow

according to a few sources we may not be playin as John (master chief) or his team
in the reach trailer, we hear several amouns of dialogue, one being from sierra 320, now the original SPARTAN IIs numbers only go up to about 150, and after that is SPARTAN IIIs who are the much lesser spartans who did not get all the enhancements that SPARTAN IIs got, making them more vunerable.
since the trailer goes from the initial invasion to the covenent bombardment it basically skips the entire battle, and in the books i believe that the master chief escaped on the pillar of autumn during the bombardment, making it the possibility that this game will actually take place after/during the bombardment with SPARTAN IIIs.
at the end of the trailer, you hear sierra 259's voice saying that they had spartans on the ground AFTER John would have jumped into slip space. so this game may take place as the more untrained spartans are on reach as the second wave of spartans

Signatures are for squares.

No Spartan III's were present on Reach.

And Class II's don't exist.

We will be playing as five un-named spartans who presumably died on Reach. Its the only logical way to make the game original and exciting without trodding on the canon of the battle.

Very true.
I hope we do not play as John. Enough of the same hero.
Mind I do hope that these spartan's are going to mean something to the universe. This is the last game, they want to leave an impression on the player, that this part of the story of the universe. Was IMportant, that massive risks,adventures went on in it. And that these 5 spartan's will be nothing special but more soldiers who died on Reach.You know? I hope they are something special.

Master Chief is a SPARTAN II, but he's a class I.

There were supposed to be more SPARTAN II's, but Dr. Halsey lost funding for it.

SPARTAN III's, however, were not present on Reach. And even if they were, Sierra 320 does not follow the normal numbering syste of the SPARTAN III's, as they were made with their number, and their companies first letter, IE SPARTAN G-003.

Team Beta was made up of most of the healthy SPARTAN II's on Reach, who were charged with the defense of the MAC generators, but it's only assumed that they all died. And considering the same was said about Gamma Team, and they were still alive, one could assume that some of Beta Team survived as well, and may be who we play as.

I still find it more likely we will be playing a Blue Team, though.

Yes, SPARTAN II's exist, but there are only Class I's, no Class II's.

Who are you talking to? Of course the Chief is a Spartan II but he is a Spartan II Class I. What we're saying is that there was no Class II of Spartan IIs. Do you understand?

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

Well I also heard Steve Downes (Voice of MC) hadn't been contacted about doing a voice in Reach. That could've changed, but as of the writing of the article, he wasn't in. (article was written a few days ago, I believe. I'll have to find it)

Well, the voice actor for the Chief has not been offered a Voice Job and Casting has already begun. Make what you will of that.

So now I'm a beta tester. Let's see where this goes.

The trailer was a teaser. I don't think it was written to hold up to cannon.

I would say its more likely, particularly with the accompanying line in the BWU that says 'Brand New Cast'.

Maybe there still is a chance.

Reach takes place only a matter of months before the end of Halo 3.
