Subject: Halo 4 trailer, where is the Arbiter?

At the end of Halo 3 isn't the Arbiter driving the ship him and the Master Chief are on?
If so why isn't the arbiter in the trailer or did he die?
I am confused!

Online Gaming's pretty much like a zombie movie. There are a lot of mindless idiots roaming around but you find some survivors on the way.

*sighs* Ok Spazzdick...

When the Ark was destroyed, the portal collapsed when Forward Unto Dawn was half way through it, sending the bow section to earth and the stern section to some anomalous location. Thel went to Earth, then back to Sangelios, and John is facing what you see in the trailer, which is most likely a Shield Installation

The Arbiter flew the ship into the portal to take them back to Earth. However, AS EXPLAINED IN THE FINAL CUTSCENE, the portal couldn't sustain itself and inconveniently closed as the ship was passing through cutting it in half. The Arbiter made it safely to Earth, honoured the fallen then returned to his home world. However, Chief and Cortana were stranded on the other side. Chief goes into cryogenic stasis and Cortana drops a distress beacon. In the Legenedary Ending of Halo 3, we see Chief's half of the ship drifting towards a planet.

Play the last mission on Halo 3 and actually watch the ending this time.

Regardless,i'm afraid arbiter won't be making an appearance in Halo 4.But he could be back in the next two games.

I -blam!- love that Sangheili
