Would make for a pretty awesome story if it was.

"Time was your ally human. But now it has abandoned you. The Forerunners....have returned. And this tomb... is now yours". - The Didact

1)No it's not Onyx



2)I don't want it to be,what fun about arriving on a place with nothing more then a cloud of angry sentinels?What's fun about roaming in an emty micro dyson sphere for spartans,what's the point of it?

Why would Mendicant Bias send the Chief to Onyx jsut to save his comrades.

No,it's something else.Master Chief will have to fight an enemy that will be a threat to the entire universe.

My ponit is,it's not Onyx and saving a bunch of Spartans isn't important.
Leave that for the books.

Save spartans blah blah blah THEN fight an enemy that will be a threat.

*cough* Halo 5 *cough*

Smart business idea.

You would buy it, Admit it.

Offcourse i will :)

I'm hoping more on an appearance of the arbiter then the spartans.

But i bet we won't see anything of the Covenant or UNSC,maybe until Halo 5 if Chief links up with them.

Universe unite!

Indeed. Shield Worlds are a little to well known imo for a good mystery story, and judging from the trailer, and the wake up John poster, it would seem 343i is really going for the ominous mystery feel.

At the moment, I'm saying its a portal of some sorts that will lead to the Forerunners. But where is it? What if those PAX 2011 leaks were real (which I kind of hope they were)?

Who knows at this point. All I know is when I get Halo: Anniversary, I'm going to be all over those terminals.

Edit: Oh, and who is the only race that could possibly threaten they entire universe?

Precursors anyone?

Yea visual termoinals with sounds :) we will love it.

I'm happy that 343 industries keeps the mystery and even adds more.
And idiots claimed they will only milk it,so far i see a careful planned deep story and so on

I'm happy now :)

You were totally and absolutely correct in every way, I don't know why we were arguing, you're so amazing I should never have doubted you.

I want to see more of the Seperatist Elites and the politics between them and their homeworld after the Schism. It's a big loose end that needs to be tied up.

Who wants to play something that already appeared in the books?

They should add new things to the lore and not otherwise.

It takes place at Sigma 7, a shield world. Industrial, Forerunner exterior, and a tiered natural environment on the interior.


If the leaks are real.

But it isn't confirmed to be a shield world,similar to it but is it one?Maybe a different type??
