Subject: Chief Died. They never found him.

I Know Bungie's Secret... Shhhhhhh...

On July 7th, 2589, Halsey performs a eulogy to Spartan B-312 on the re-terraformed Reach. The existence of this speech indicates that at some point, Halsey and the other Onyx survivors eventually escaped the Micro Dyson Sphere.Then in 2610, Three years after its conception, the completely hand-crafted John-117 Monument was finished and placed in the Museum of Humanity to commemorate the Spartan's timeless and selfless dedication to protect Humanity. Which means they never found him. So after all that time Cortana probably went rampant and master chief probably died inside of his containment cell sometime after wards.


-I hate it too.

I wish it to be not true. To think that the halo series that you and I loved to play as the master chief, Could have died a bleak death, with the companion that most of us came to actually care for has succumb to rampancy. It hurts to think about it quite honestly.

He isn't dead.Mendicant wouldn't send him to the forerunners just to kill him.

Not to mention there is no evidence Halsey escaped jsut because of that eulogy

Teh chief is alive,they are making Halo 4 and Frankie says they will continue the chiefs story .

SHAY

where is this from?

True Frankie said that they would continue chiefs story, but that fact that the eulogy took place on a re-terraformed reach proves that Halsey made it off of onyx with out Chief.

But the legendary planet isn't Onyx

Never said it was. In fact I don't believe it is.

Halsey narrating a eulogy does not mean she was actually there. Morgan Freeman narrated March of the Penguins, does that mean he was in the antarctic freezing his ass off? No. Narrators are non-diegetic (not part of the story world).

Don't believe everything you read on a wiki. At one point Schubert apparently died from being attacked by a bear.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Interesting. Wouldn't he of died of old age by that time, anyway?

You don't age in cryo. He has an indefinite lifespan.

Don't -blam!- with Kerser!

Exact same "Theory" i thought of. But i was thinking he was found and went MIA in another battle afterwards.

Bungie Pentathlon - who actually cares ?

Imagine a Microsft / 343i meeting to discuss where to take the franchise

Executive #1 - Lets kill off the MC and have done with his storyline even before a new game comes out

Executive #2 - Errrm, you do realise what a moneyspinner Halo is, exspecially with the MC

Executive #1...oh yeah..let's reactive his pod and chuck him on another planet....343i - you sort out the storyline, we will print the $$$

The MC isn't gonna die anytime soon

Why does everyone think this? It was just a narroration, it meant literally nothing. The existance of that speech means nothing; it was there for dramatic effect, not to tell you Halsey survived.

I'm actually surprised people took it that way.

  • 04.12.2011 5:18 AM PDT

they just *think* mc is dead, we all know that's impossible... literally someone that badass paired up with a hyperintelligent AI is unstoppable.

Why do guys like you always think about money money -blam!-.

Halo isn't just about making money,it's story and fun too.

Serioulsy! Dont any of you realize which brain Cortana was molded after! It could be just a naration, a speech from Halsey or Cortana. Cortana is esentialy Halsey.

  • 04.12.2011 7:13 AM PDT

Excuse me while I whip this out.

Join KOTOR?

They wouldn't kill him, it would be too anticlimactic.

Ok where do i start. Chief in space in hafl a ship. He is in cryo sleep. Witch means his body frozen and not breaking down. Cortana is in the ship systems.

He's trapped in dark space, ergo in the middle of literary nowhere. He's incomprehendably far away from our galaxy and heading over there to pick him up like on a regular tuesday is NOT going to happen. The little piece of titanium he and Cortana resides in doesn't have unlimited power and all the energy it gets is EM-radiation from other galaxies. He's stuck in a damaged cryo chamber with a soon-to-be rampant A.I. in near zero temperature.
Bungie was clever to end it like this, making a real nut for 343 on how to continue Chief's story. BUT they had to throw in that legendary planet, leaving all doors open.

A possible solution is that 343 goes all Arthur C. Clarke and we're suddenly in year 3000 when the UNSC long ago has achieved the tech to open up portals outside the galaxy, and they go there, trace the energy signatures of the destroyed frigate and retrieve the ancient, frozen Chief and revive him. An interesting plot would be something that dealt with the now rampant Cortana (who hopefully already haven't killed the Chief in his sleep), like some kind of nod to the Marathon series. But that wouldn't make $$, because people want Covenant. Re-introducing the Flood would be pathetic, and all there's left is Forerunners, insurrectionists and perhaps Brutes.

Good luck, 343. Make a prequel.
