I enjoy halo for it's story and when I am in the mood, its gameplay. Reach was significantly worse then I expected but was still a great game (minus the european hitscan fiasco). I am sitting on a two mile wide fence on the subject of halo 4. Most of the things I like a technical aspects though and not story or game play. Plus I am slightly mad they took my elites from MP.
First off I would like to mention that I will not be draged into a 'breach of cannon debate'
Now that that is out of the way, in the limited and legendary edition of halo reach doctor halsys journal is featured but in all the content with aditional documents (pictures and newspapers) a planet and its subsequent destruction is continusly referred to, that planet is called bliss. Unlike all the other refrences in the journal and aditional content bliss is described in explicit detail, is this because halsey is close to many people stationed there? Just to take the proverbial cake halsey sketches a naval battle between UNSC and covenent forces above bliss that ilustrates captin keys destroying a covenent destroyer and two covenent frigates, while the carrier (not classed probaly a assault or light) escapes. Another peice of evidence that there is a connection between reach and bliss is the so called Accra incident where 45 covenent vessels exit splipstream and destroyed the UNSC ships sent to prevent them reaching the surface of bliss, then the covenent vessels begin military operations on bliss and eventually glass the place. That covenent fleet was comprised of five assualt carriers, twenty three battle cruisers and seventeen destroyers. Please note that two UNSC heavy cruisers engaged the covenent fleet (pillar of autumn class?) aided by one (presumably heavy) frigate. The third peice of evidence for a connection between reach and bliss is an inclueded document from the press, this document tells us the date of the battle on bliss 26 feb 2526. Unfortunatly this is all the document tells us. The final peice of evidence is in halseys diary wheere she states and I qoute "a alien covenent single handedly solved our civil war" this indicates that bliss was the first non-classified planetary excursion with the covenent and as such is a very important date for the UNSC
After giving you a chance to read the evidence my question is this, does Reach reference the next halo game?
