"Halo, it's divine wind will rush through the stars, propelling all who are worthy along the path of salvation!"

I'm pretty sure all of you remember that feeling of being on a Halo, mysterious, chills down your spine etc. Fighting off convent forces, blowing -blam!- to SMITHEREENS!

Good times. But we are going to be versing Forerunners and new enemies and a total different story. No Halo, no covenant, nothing.

I hope 343 doesn't screw up my love for Halo.

TL;DR: I don't think it'll be the same.

Thoughts?

What if it isn't bro? Then what? Didn't you love the story of the Halo trilogy.

I think that this is the right way to go for the franchise. Now that we are seeing aspects of the Halo Universe we aren't familiar yet it will have that mysteries vibe to it that Halo CE brought along.

It will still feel like Halo, one can only imagine, but this time there will be some new blood involved in making it.

All we can do is wait. I'm optimistic in the outcome though.

  • 06.08.2011 8:03 PM PDT

But still why would you want them to stop making halos

  • 06.08.2011 8:05 PM PDT

Why do you assume we will fight Forerunner?

There may be still covenant-you never know. Maybe covenant and a new enemy?

Even though the three main prophets were killed, there could have still been factions of the theocracy that survived and were undetected by the UNSC/Elites.


All I know is it's Halo,and it kicks the ass of any other game series out there.

"Find where the liar hides, so that I may place my boot between his gums!" - Rtas 'Vadum

I'm not liking the "long after Halo 3" vibe that Frankie was giving off in the IGN interview. Basically every other character that we got used to seeing/reading about will most likely never be seen again. Halsey, Blue Team, Arbiter, Rtas etc. For me, the characters are a large part of what makes Halo. I don't mind some coming and going, but completely ridding them all would be disappointing in my opinion.

Halo no longer has that chess kind of approach on it where two teams battle for map control, working together to outplay the other team.Its now a bunch of sugar rushed ten year old's playing soccom boppers at 12:00 AM.

In the books, the humans and the forerunners had a huge war. The forerunners won and de-evolved humans so they would not be able to fight back( i.e. humans lived during the forerunner era and were just as technologically advanced until they were de-evolved via Forerunners manipulating their genome).


So yeah, the Forerunners were complete -blam!-s.

We should know better, because we are better.

It is going to be very different. Hopefully in a good way.

That was over 100,000 years ago, if anything they would study John and put him to the test.

"I'm sorry man, I don't even know why I got in on this side... SHOTGUN!!!"

There's still a small chance that the Covenant and Flood will make a return. The Covenant isn't entirely disbanded, is it? Sure, they killed the High Prophets, but there's still some chance...

As for the Flood, if they do return, it'll most likely either be the remainder of the Flood from Installation-05 reverted back to a feral stage; or flood specimen from another installation (if another installation is visited.)

You've played the game already? What's it like?

  • 06.08.2011 9:08 PM PDT

Welcome to bungie, you have no rights. play nice!
CLICK!

Hm... let me picture this...:
Halo 2 won't be the same! Foehammer is dead and so is captain Keyes!
...
Halo 3 won't be the same! The elites are on the humans side!
...
Halo 3 ODST won't be the same! We don't play as spartans anymore!
...
I hope you get it.

  • 06.08.2011 9:39 PM PDT

Ya it will be different. No other halo had a 4 on it.

  • 06.08.2011 9:58 PM PDT

As long as it stays awesome, I'll be ok with it. Howver, the trailer does not look promising. Seriously, did MC just grow a jetpack and a new set of armor while in cryosleep or something?

I like how he forgot to mention Reach, probably because it sucked so bad and is totally non-canon.

  • 06.08.2011 10:23 PM PDT

Well, I have faith in 343. They seem like guys that have respect for Halo.

  • 06.08.2011 11:10 PM PDT

Annihilator§

you know what i think they should do... when the master chief goes to the new forerunner stucture he finds that he was not the last spartan left...like hes out exploring and fighting...someone and the "MIA" spartans or something have been trapped there and he thought he was the last one left after that anything goes...their story, who theyve come across, what plan of escape they have, something... truth is i have no idea where they could possibly go from here but they said there was gonna be a new trilogy so they thought of something good...I Hope
