Subject: Mission IcyFly, halo 4 reveal?

considering your the one chatting bull-blam!- and not knowing much about halo i think you should ask yourself that question.


Grey's been on the Universe forums since before I became a member. He's very well informed on the story of Halo, he never indicated at all he wasn't. Why the hell are you so pissed? Because his opinion disagreed with yours?

Just chill, man.

well what is the name of you alt account because you couldn't have played it on this one, how did iris start off? What group was made from it and what did it do?

@Rob. no, like i said IRIS hyped us up for a forerunner revelation in the game not to mention bungie didn't even show elements of the covenant war (like elites and humans still fighting for a bit) they just mashed the plot together and made marketing material afterwards. The only good thing in halo 3 were the terminals, i would say the ark but destroying it ruined everything.

"The object of war is not die for your counrty but to make the other bastard die for his."

I think we should chill out; we've done a nice job of discussing the ARG that could possibly be starting here, lets keep it that way...

And yes grey knows what he's talking about; I've been here for a lot of stuff, but I have interacted less...that is until I found the universe forum...

But let's chill and stay centered on the ARG...but yes IRIS built things up, I LOVED Halo 3, but make no mistake the campaign missed the mark; it was fun, but ya...
I'm hoping 343 takes the 'Harry Potter' approach, if at this point you would REALLY like to know what's going on...then get involved and do your reading..if you want to just play...then go right on ahead and don't worry too much about confusing people about the plot; if it matters to them they'll go figure it out.

To be fair if it is an ARG it isn't for halo 4; the game is over a year away and that is just too long for an ARG.

Same sentiments here grey...on page 3 I expressed my concern over the fact that we are starting this WAY out; but on the contrary this has been in the works for quite a long time...the possibility is there, but like I've said earlier, I want it to happen, but I'm not convinced yet

It takes money to run these things not to mention it is hard to keep the "thrill" up for over a year.

True enough...still wondering though; When did ILB start in comparison to Halo 2? I came in around the middle of ILB and was just starting to get that involved in Halo (Even though I had always loved the game and played it frequently)

2004 same as halo 2

"The object of war is not die for your counrty but to make the other bastard die for his."

How many months in advance? I still agree with you don't worry we are considerably far out for this to be a Halo 4 ARG, but to solely be an ad for 5gum seems unlikely.

Hell, could be an ARG for Aerospace (more along the lines of introducing the universe) Again the primary link is the microsoft stuff and the holographic bee thing; so it would seem to be Halo related rather than Bungie related, but I'm just thinking out loud about the timeline and stuff

what it is actually for 5 gum but later on gets like i love bees gets the impression it is hacked. its is preparing to disapoint for now but this disappointment has a larger role maybe. maybe it is to drop everyones hope ones the last loyal believer leaves which may be a few months changes may begin and a new campaign may begin.

there may be a little bit about halo 4 that are hidden really discreetly that it will take the halo anniversary logs to understand and notice them. plus it might have something about halo anniversary.

Could be a coincidence...but when have we ever had those with Bungie and Halo?

Anyways good find...kinda lends the ARG some credit because of Bungie's obsession with 7's...but then I get into trouble...cause it's not Bungie anymore if it's Halo...Could be related to Bungie's new IP; we shall see...

Yeah, because after everyone leaves is the best time to reveal the true intention.

Cool your jets...just because it's riding in on 5gum doesn't mean that it's not Bungie or Halo related. They have to start somewhere and maybe 5gum with there strange ads figured that this was a good way to get some advertising out there that could get noticed in the news if this picks up as an ARG...

if this is video game related, i'm actually hoping it's about Bungie's new IP and not Halo 4. We have more than enough time to start any kind of hype for H4. As for Bungie, I think they will stick to these kinds of shenanigans, Halo or not.

Reason why to start when everyone leaves is that it causes everyone to go back and see what is going on.

anyway bungie said they have nothing to do with it. so it could be for halo 4.or another product.

source? the only thing I remember Bungie confirming recently that is wasn't them were the weird videos that were being posted on nobleactual's twitter.

We believe that the universe is unbounded: this is not the same as infinite: the 2-D surface of a sphere, wrapped around a 3rd dimension, has a finite size, but has no end. If you start off in a given direction on the surface of a sphere, you could return to your start point without having to turn around -- you simply go all the way around. But wouldn't that mean the universe has an escape velocity like the earth?

you all should check out ilovebees.com...
countdown to wide awake and physical, can this mean something about master chief waking up...


Was it assleep before?

Wait it says 197729 days,7 hours,17 minutes and 11 seconds

That's 541+ years???

Wait we are in 2011 now,so that means...the year 2552??Lol


It's been like that since the game ended.
It counts down to the beginning of the Human/Covenant war (I believe!).

It's a timer for the activation of the AI which is focussed on in the audio logs. It supposedly went back in time, and so this is a timer till it was technically created.

Actually the war started in 2525, without going into specific detail.

5 Gum would get neggavtive attention by being used as just a decoy for Halo 4.

It has the same IceFly as the mail in.
5 Gums motto is "Stimulate your Senses" and in the video they want you to test all 5 of your senses. Come on now, this might as well be Cloverfield 2 than Halo 4.


What makes no sense is that nobleactual posted the link to that site. So 5 gum could be a decoy.
