Subject: Does Halsey escape the Dyson Sphere?

:P

It is implied that she did because she is heard giving a eulogy for Noble Six in 2589, at which she would have been around 87 years old.

2/15/12: Francisco Porras, I'll miss you. Rest in Peace.

I haven't finished GoO, but I think we don't know yet.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect


:)
The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Nobody knows.

Everyone is still waiting to find out what happends in there.

Well, It could be her thinking about him while she was walking around the dyson shere, although it could have opened when the ark was destroyed.

I like turtles

Dyson SPHERE sounds an awful lot like 'Dyson BALL.'

Vacuum references?

The Ghosts of Onyx sequel has been announced, so we might find out then :]

Halsey's voice is used for narration purposes. It doesn't mean she is actually giving the eulogy. However, with a book series coming out with Halsey as a main character I'd say it is likely she'll get out of the Dyson Sphere.

A Dyson sphere is a device used to obtain the total energy output from a sun by absorbing all the radiation. But in halo, it isn't bowl shaped, unlike Linda's initial observations

1) Halsey and Cortana have the same voice
2) Her "Eulogy" didn't have to be given at the time of the cutscene.
3) Does she have to be alive to deliver a narration? Lot's of movies narrate with dead characters.

Ghosts of Onyx was my favorite, where did you get this info?!?!?

  • 02.03.2011 12:35 AM PDT

Seriously Oak, Ive been doing this -blam!- for 16 years, gimmie my Friggen starter Pokemon and dont call me till im the champion! ¬_¬

My computing teacher mentioned this Dyson sphere concept a week or two ago

He also mentioned a ring-like object, both conceptually designed to take mass energy from a star

My head immediately went "So THAT'S where the idea for halo came from"

Anyway, I'm sure that was the last place we left Halsey, so i suppose so, just need a sequel.... soon :P

I think 343 have dug themselves quite a hole with all these unanswered cliffhangers

"Wheres the spirit of fire?", "What happens in the shield world?", "What happened to Jun", "Wheres master chief?", "What happened to the Captive?"

There's more questions here than Lost ever had :P

Karen Travis' Ghosts of Onyx sequel is not a book that will follow the charicters from GoO!

She stated in her blog, that the book will take place following the events after GoO, but not follow the charicters.

Ghosts of onyx is the book that is set furthest foward in the Halo time line.

Travis' book will take place further foward and so some idiot decided that it would be simple to say Ghost of Onyx Sequel'.

In the end, lots of missguided people dove head first in to believing that it was going to be a direct sequel to the book.

Persoanly, although i think that Travis is a great auther, I would rather Eric Nylund continued the charicters story arc from GoO, as he invented the charicters.

This is exactly what I thought.
After Lone Wolf, I "heard" Cortana speaking so to say and not Halsey. It felt as if this was part of Cortana's speech in Origins.

As for Halsey leaving the Dyson Sphere: Highly doubt it.
It would make sense for the Forerunners to have way to open it from the inside. But then again: 8 people, without any vehicles etc inside a giant "planet" and no idea what you are looking for and where it is...with Halsey already being a senior, I don't think she will leave the DS alive.

The term giant planet doesn't quite cut it. Let's take earth as an example. Earth's surface is 4*pi*1.3*10^7=> 1.6*10^8 square meters. A dyson sphere WITHIN the habitable zone would be 4*pi*1.5*10^11(Distance from Earth to sun) => 1.9*10^12 square meters. or 11538 times the surface of the earth. Did I just really do that? Anyways.
OT: When you turn on the subtitles it explicitly states that Dr. Halsey is speaking. The fact that she knows about how we won suggest that she somehow escaped the dyson sphere.

this.

Though I heard it was a trilogy? If so, We'll be getting a lot of Halo soon.

Signatures are for squares.

Isn't it possible Reach just ignored the fact they were in the dyson sphere in the first place? Kinda like how they ignored the rest of First Strike and Fall of Reach?

If i recall, bungie have left plot holes before that 343 had to fill, like johnsons escape from Halo

Maybe bungie delibriatly ignore this aspects as a giant "F U" to 343, "Whats that? Your Not gonna help us create a new genre of video game with Activision? you wanna work with Halo still? Well FILL THESE PLOT HOLES D***HEBAGS!" :P

Bungie ignored every thing with the release of Reach. Still bugs me.

There's an argument that Bungie did this intentionally to screw 343.

I would love to see Nylund keep writing the Halo series.

I am a monument to all your sins

Karen Travis is writing a book that will presumidly explain just that.

  • 02.03.2011 6:50 PM PDT

It is not a sequel to ghosts of onyx, it just takes place after it. The characters are not the same.

  • 02.03.2011 6:51 PM PDT

Good bye Bungie. Thanks for the best game alive! Hope your other games are like Halo.

The reason Halsey and Cortana have same voice was because before Noble Team came to deliver the package to Captain John Keyes she was making the hologram "Cortana" she only had one voice to import into Cortana. You do realized she was in that lab for quite some time. I don't think Halsey would have any other woman in there to record they're voice for the project.

No and no. To my understanding it's right after the events of GoO but not the same storyline or characters.

Because a smart A.I. couldn't come up with a voice on their own???
