Subject: At the end, why don't they destroy delta halo?

They might as well, really. It is yet another weapon of galactic destruction just sitting there waiting to be triggered by the Ark. Also there is a flood outbreak still rampant on it so why not? I guess firepower would probably be an issue but wouldn't it be worth it?

It was not the most significant threat at that time. Remember, Chief was brought to High Charity by Gravemind and it got infected by the flood as well. They do eventually blow it up in Halo 3, as Cortana suggests in Halo 2, but by then, another flood infested Halo is insignificant. Besides, why waste another perfectly good slip space drive engine on it? They cost a lot of money you know...

Why the bold in all your posts? And when do they destroy it in H3? Don't remember that...

In the mission "Cortana" if you recall. It is your primary purpose...

He means they destroy High Charity, not Delta Halo.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

All I know is that Delta Halo = Awesome campaign level and Sanctuary = Awesome multiplayer map.

Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

it didnt need to be destroyed. 04 was destroyed because guilty activated it so you had to destroy halo before it fired a blast killing all sentient life.
tartarus almost activated o5 with mirandas assistance though she stopped it in time. no one else was going to try to activate it so everyone just left it. even if it got destroyed, the ark will start making another one which takes 5 years or something.

for some reason 2401 pendant tangent didnt care if 05 will get activated as much as 343 guilty cared if 04 would get activated. 2401 just let everyone leave, guilty went rampant when cortana defied her.
