Why did they have to convolute the story like this? Before all this crap started up with Cryptum, this is the story as I understood it:
Humanity was once a great spacefaring civilization.
They got into it with a dangerous species that came from another galaxy (I found this somewhere. I think from the book that came with Halo 3 limited).
They could not defeat the Flood, so they activated the Halo array as a last-resort, killing all life in the galaxy.
Their tech re-initializes life that the array killed (including humanity).
After a while, humanity becomes somewhat space-faring again, and discovers ruins of an ancient civilization (their former selves), which they call the Forerunners.
Humanity meets the Covenant.
The Covenant's prophets recognize Humanity for what it is (the forerunners), and attempt to exterminate them (lying to the other species in the Covenant).
You know the rest from the games.

Now there's all this talk of human-Forerunner wars, and house-pet Flood...it all seems ruined to me.
It has been stated a thousand times and made clear over and over in the games that the humans and forerunners arent related.Example?
