They're going to go with the good ol' uncreative MIA ending to continue milking and mega-franchising Halo for the moola.
And Halo will continue to get staler and staler until its all mouldy and just plain bad, and not worthy to be called a game.
I think halo has the chance to go stale if they keep focusing on the Chief and don't develop him ingame as a character. I'm truly hoping human presence is minimal in Halo 4(aka no random UNSC officer telling chief what to do all the time), and master Chief gets lots of development as a character which was lacking in the trilogy.
I know a friend who is very, very eager to see Master Chief die, or get his ass majorly kicked. The reason is he's sick of the chief fanboys and wants it shown that Spartans (and the Chief) are not unstoppable gods.
Me? I'm half for MIA/retired, half for death. Bungie started ODST/other things with the statement of(if I remember right) "Halo is not Master Chief, we want to explore other characters stories." Basically, I want Chief to step out of the main hero role for the UNSC. Maybe still be around, maybe even show up in future halo games as a side character (whether it's during the Covenant war timeline game, or after halo 6), but out of the hero chair. Let's get new heroes and characters for halo.

I really, vehemently agree with you. And that "friend" you know, sounds a lot like how I think, exactly how I think come to think of it. >_>
Anyway, even though, I agree with your post, 150%, I do not think any of that is going to happen. I'm sorry, I just don't think I have much faith left in the Halo series, but I will update by thoughts as more information is released. But as it stands now, I don't see any of that happening, but who knows, they could develop his character, and show his weaknesses. But seeing as how Halo 4 has suffered the mega-franchising 'virus', it is likely a money-maker and box office detonator such as the Master Chief will not be getting any such 'human' treatment.
