+1 Halo 2 map to be one of the 7 on the CEA disk. Please let it be Zanzibar!

I can guarantee it'll be Coagulation, considering everybody thinks Blood Gulch is some sort divine god-like map.


Coagulation, Ivory Tower, Sanctuary, and Ascention are all already on Reach.

I thought Beaver Creek was the Halo 2 map they were talking about. Battle Creed is the Halo CE variation, but Beaver Creek is the one on HALO: CEA. No ladders.

BUT, if Beaver Creek isn't the Halo 2 map they're talking about, then my fingers are crossed for Headlong. I love urban combat in Halo multiplayer, but Halo CE, Halo 3, and Reach have literally no urban maps.

Boardwalk is an urban map, though its nothing like Headlong.

And Hang 'Em High is also already in Reach yet they're remaking it again anyway.

Subject: SDCC11 - Info Hub! ALL SDCC INFO HERE! NEW INTERVIEW WITH FRANKIE!!!!

I made the prediction that Halo 4-6 will be a retelling of the events of the forerunners, leading up to the activation of the halos. I predicted that master chief receives didacts memories via terminals or something similar in the weird planet his drifting towards (if you've read cryptum, you understand), and we physically play through those memories. The game would be a mixture of us playing through didacts memories, and master chief fighting in his current time. By the end of Halo 6, master chief, having received all of didacts memories, a forerunner combat skin, and knowledge of forerunner technology, becomes the new didact. He returns home to earth, bringing with him the gifts of the forerunner, so that humanity can begin to repair the galaxy, which is shattered and broken in the aftermath of the human-covenant-flood war. Karen Traviss' new trilogy will be exploring the state of the galaxy in the aftermath of Halo 3, which will of course tell us just how bad a state the galaxy is in. It all ties in together.

This makes it seem that much more likely, and I cannot be more excited.

Do you think we would be playing as the Didact? Because that would be very very cool. IDK about you but when I read Cryptum, I had a hard time imagining what all of the surroundings looked like.

Yup! You are physically controlling didact, even though youare technically just watching his "memories". Kind of like assassins creed I guess.

It creates a great opportunity for 343i to explore all that forerunner architechture, weaponry, etc. Imagine it starts of before they discovered the flood, when the forerunner were at war with humanity. Then they discover the flood, and everything goes to hell. It ends with you as the didact, at the ark, at the very same spot master chief deactivated the halo array, but this time activating it.

Then it goes back to the real time, where master chief now knows the true history of the forerunner.

It is ACish, but if you've read cryptum then you understand why the whole memories thing makes sense.

Cryptum was a great book. It explained things in ways I thought completely unexpected

I think you linked wrong. All I see is medical equipment in a different language, nothing to do with Halo

Gamespot He noted that the team has decided to make all fiction canonical.

Wait, what does this mean, exactly?

All Halo fiction is now canon? ilovebees? iris? nicole from dead or alive?

Rob he was eluding about the precursors *shakes head*


And let me point out


Karen says the book ISN'T about spartans as i have been saying "looks at reven"

Greg says the THIRD books is when the "tragedy" happens, as i have been saying

Greg says the spartans might be related to chakas or rise in which i know cobra will have a heart attack

Greg says the precursors screwed up somewhere and that they had plans for the humans and forerunners.
