(Now just bear with me, I know it's long but just trust me, I make some very good points here)
Well the 2011 E3 Announcement trailer for Halo 4 has left people wondering. This is just a discussion. Now I have many questions:
1. Didn't Cortana go into rampancy at the end of Origins? She clearly showed no sign of rampancy during her short appearance in the trailer.
2. The aft half of the Forward Unto Dawn was relatively close to the "Legendary Planet" at the end of Halo 3. Now in Origins they were drifting for five years. Halo 4 takes place after Origins. And yet they've traveled a distance toward the planet that would have normally taken three weeks at most.
3. The "Legendary Planet" is obviously a shield world. Now I'm theorizing that it's probably housing a Forerunner colony. If I had to come up with a story-line for the new Halo Trilogy, I would say the Forerunner colony is divided into two groups: Forerunners that believe the activation of the Halo Array has succeeded and the Flood are wiped out, or the "Believers," and the ones that think the activation has failed and the Flood control the galaxy, the "Non-Believers." The two groups are at constant odds with each other because one wants to leave the shield world and the other wants to stay. Families are divided between the two groups and therefore will not leave unless the rest of the family goes along. War has broken out and John arrives. The Believers see him as proof that the Flood are destroyed and the Non-Believers think he is a form of the Flood that has been sent to devour them. John must then either convince the Non-Believers that they are wrong, or force the Believers out of the shield world. Now I would like to hear your theories.
4. Changes have occurred. They're minor, but I feel that these little screw-ups are just the beginning of 343 Industries "dismantling" of the Halo story. Changes such as Cortana having mysteriously short hair, the appearance of John's MJOLNIR Mk. VI armor and the altering of the Forward Unto Dawn's appearance bring up some questions to 343 Industries.
Here is the 2011 E3 Announcement trailer and here is the Halopedian page about the trailer. I honestly look forward to seeing your theories and opinions on Halo 4!
