Does anyone have any idea what reference troy has in halo.

i've been looking at ilovebees site and found that some of the text changes when you refresh the page.. i've been able to piece this together so far.

1st Lt Sorenson: Not even Standish would let them drop the mission. We have to bug out of here right now and get word back to HQ. An evac on this scale they need every second. 1st Lt Sorenson: The mission... This mission is more important than millions of lives? Oh my......Jesus. I was stationed on Troy.
Capt. Greene: I'm not... I'm not sure.
1st Lt Sorenson: Ma'am?
Capt. Greene: There's a bigger view.
1st Lt Sorenson: For the first time, I'm not sure I want to know what's in them.
Capt Greene: ...Even leaving aside our particular mission, there's the issue of letting them know we've broken their codes. If we bug out and scramble home to warn HQ about Troy, people like Standish will say we've already compromised a huge tactical advantage, and that mounting a big evac operation will completely give the game away. it's HQs job to decide what to do with it.
1st Lt Sorenson: God, I'm glad it isn't me making that call.
Capt. Greene: Don't feel too sorry for

I think troy might be a base...

just on that line, some thing accoured to me, if troy was a base, and we know that the master chief ends up at earth. What if troy was one of the last lines of defence before earth and the MC crash land on it. This would make sense to references of sand and a sand box from the site. and the master chief is damaged.

and we know something is suppose to happen on somedate in august, What if the thing release is the prologue to halo 2. A small game that allows us to demo the games new features but doesn't go into the storyline of halo 2 but it actually about how the master chief got to earth.

"updates the main dialog, i found some more of it, it seems to piece together."

being the huge expert on troy that i am from watching the movie (note the sarcasm) i would assume that troy is related to halo because the main character is a spartan 2
ya know, in reference to the huge battle between the trojans and the spartans?

What's the point?

A. It would ruin the surprise of when the game finally comes out.

B. Have you ever read Halo: First Strike? (If you had, you'd know how the MasterChief gets back to Earth).

Technically, you don't find out how MC gets back to Earth. You only find out what their PLANS are to get back. The book leaves it very open-ended . . .

Actually a small game based on before halo2 wouldn't spoil halo2 it would get us ready for halo. By absorbing us and hooking us the a ending that makes us want play halo2 more.

A demo that had aspects of the storyline from 2 would spoil it, i'm suggesting something that would go into the story line of halo 2, becuase the story line from halo 2 wouldn't of happened yet.

It seems that there is something on the planet that they are on that they want to know (or in this case, wouldn't perfer to know) whats inside.
And i reminded me of the trailer i have for the orginal pc version (which became the xbox version), when they first encounter the convertant, they where looking through temples or something like that.

Really? So you're saying you're not ready for Halo2 as it is?

1. That makes no sense, but I think you meant to say start we're First Strike left off.
2. What if Bungie alreay thought of that and Halo2 starts where the books left off. I don't know about you but I don't want to play the game until I have the FULL retail version in my hands...going into my Xbox

Has anyone played the orginal halo that was realeased (i quite sure it was released) on pc. i there any reference to troy in that game.

It seems that there is something on the planet that they are on that they want to know (or in this case, wouldn't perfer to know) whats inside.

Whoa, you're making some decent obversations, but go here where all the text is organized!

You will find it MUCH easier to grasp what it going on, instead of trying to make sense of ILB by looking at the site itself! Its a great, pretty well organized, spot to read everything.

(and to continue my shameless plug for my own thread, check my sig to see my attempts at explaininig what's mostly understood so far).

The Frozen Minority - The most infamous clan borne from the Seventh Column.

i read something on somewhere (very specific) that theres a forerunner base inside a gas giant thats overrun by covenant. maybe that is troy but it had to be evacuated because the covenant attacked
still i have no idea where i read this info its just something that was in the back of my mind
