Glad to see your still at it grey lol

Honestly I still stand by that feeling that humans and covies might be in the series but not as we know them now.

As I said before it seems unlikely that we'll never see any of them in some form, but as the story seems to take place in relation to the mystery planet I could see there being scattered friendly's trapped there...These troops won't be part of the main factions as they'd have no contact. This wouldn't conflict what they said and even would be a smart way to surpise the vet. halo player as this would give a decent amount of depth and characters to add to the story and help push it along farther.

Now idc if halo 4 ends up like this, or something completely different. I just want to give us a new angle. :)

I really hope they don't use the Forrunner Novels as cannon. They put a big nasty dent in the story.

What? Can you explain why it left a large dent in the story of Halo universe? We needed to know about Forerunners and we finally got it. Thanks to Cryptum and another two more new forerunner sage books.

Forerunners Novels are canon, and you will have to accept it otherwise.

As Frankie said there will be no purple in the Halo 4 implies that it will be no covenant. Also it's extremely high likely that UNSC will even be there as well. Because this "legendary" A.K.A Forerunner world is unknown to Covenant and UNSC! Not mention that Covenant is finished for good.

Also, sad for you: Halo 4 will be related to Forerunners novels as well.

I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road

thats some cool findings bro, i think that the chief will have her transformed into ancilla which is forunner AI which lasts forever. Also i suspect that it'd either be the flood or a nmew alien race.

my gt is Godzillla....i just didnt link it properly

interesting ...pretty much thanks to canon halo 4 has to have a clean slate , its essentially the anti-reach in that it will completely remove itself from the military covenant conflict that reach focused on the heaviest of all the halos

Meh I cant imagine 343 wont bring back the Covenant or UNSC at some point. Warthogs, ODSTs, Elites, Ghosts, Grunts, Plasma Rifles and so on and so on are too iconic of the Halo universe to leave them out.

  • 08.07.2011 2:45 AM PDT

What nooo i thouht the humans and the elites would form an aliance that would be too cool

  • 08.07.2011 3:01 AM PDT

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

If the UNSC is not involved, I believe this could be a very good thing, and a fresh start for Halo (which is most definitely needed)as it will provide another element to the campaign: stealth.

As now you're not able to call for back-up or request a warthog at will, you are now behind enemy lines by yourself, in an isolated and hidden space where the UNSC forces have not been able to find you for 50+ years.

I am most definitely looking forward to how something like this would turn out.

You guys are all forgetting one thing, Frankie said that the terminal in Halo: CE anniversary will provide some insight into events before/leading up to halo 4.

I would have to say that there will be a UNSC presence in halo 4:

John 117 - Master petty officer.

Cortana

Forward unto dawn - Is a ship, so technically count's as UNSC.

Possibly the group that comprised of Halsey and the Spartans in the onyx shield world.

Also a covenant influence would probably be plasma based weapons, which we know as to be down-graded/less efficiant versions of forerunner weaponry.

You are also forgetting Glasslands, which will bridge the gap between 3 and 4, The cryptum sequel And The ghosts of onyx sequel, which will conclude the story of the group that entered the shield world on story, these are all cannon, and they may or may not apply to halo 4 and on.

Thats my 2 cents

I highly doubt that it will be UNSC presence in the Halo 4... same for Covenant. Remember, Frankie said that we don't need to play last trilogy to understand the story and also said no purple in halo 4 which it means that no covenant, also no unsc. Most likely enemies will be: Forerunners, Sentinels, rogue A.I, Flood or Precursors. As seeing that ancient enemy is, would be Precursor.

Glasslands will have some ties with Halo 4 but not large affecting factor for the Halo 4.

Also, terminals at Halo: CEA will only describes the history and also, hint something about Halo 4, not directly describing about Halo 4.

So? FuD is UNSC ship, it does not make that there is UNSC personnel in the ship... I don't know what you are getting at.

FuD is a UNSC ship, even though it is now a wreckage, it technically still is a UNSC presence because it was made by the UNSC, master chief is on it and Cortana which are in a sense a UNSC presence, When did I say that the Covenant would be a enemy in Halo 4 and on, I said that their weapons are downgraded versions of forerunner/precursor technology, you are right about the terminals in CEA, though they still hint something about Halo 4.

Not so sure about the enemy's though, it says ancient threat, that does not imply that it will be enemy's of a robotic structure, but your theory is plausible.

No

Change is for the better, even though some people don't see it that way, that is what history is all about, change - without change "things" become dead.

Not going happen since Covies and Elites does not know this location at all. Since it said to be unknown planet.

And, I'm betting that gamplay of Halo 4 will be similar to Halo CE and 2, not completely same as Reach. Many of people want to Halo 4 to be Halo.

I think it'll be innovations for Halo 4 such as new game modes, new forge, new firefight (possible) and new theater.

I don't think that 343i will risk to using AA as gameplay mechanics since most of people said that they don't want that to be added in Halo 4.

Halo: Reach was failed experiment and 343i knows it, despite saying they love it (a obvious lie because in business world, you have to embrace it to "make" product to be still good, thus selling more or keeping it popular.) Anybody who had a business/economics class knows this obvious statement...

Encyclopedia and that you claimed "alot of that fan fiction stuff" which you're preferring to the Halo novels, which it is officially CANON.

There will be no Covenant or UNSC at Halo 4 or entire trilogy, period. We will be playing is Forerunners and Precursors, probably Flood. Why it is hard to understand and accept that?


Why is it so hard for you to accept the fact that all your "facts" are just opinions? You don't know -blam!- about what 343 has in store. You can make grandiose claims based on obscure references and past story-telling all you want.

But all in all, you don't know -blam!-, and you won't know -blam!- until 343 says what's happening. So please stop acting like you're the Dungeonmaster, cause you're not.

Ummm... Not sure if you're troll or stupid.

Let me explain something to you. Bungie/343i did state that books novels and encyclopedia is actual canon. You can look it up and you'll know that I was right. And it wasn't my opinion, derp. It was my assumptions.

And stop crying, please. We knew that it'll be no covies or unsc at Halo 4 as frankie confirmed via saying no purple. Even, grey have provided its proof, go to his OP and check it yourself, bub.

Wow man, you are one self-pretentious piece of work. Failed experiment. Hahahaha.

"Remember kids, Frankie said 'NO PUUUURPLE!!' That means No Covenant. YES HE DID!!! THAT ALSO MEANS NO UNSC, CAUSE I SAID SO!!"


What? In reality, Halo: Reach was actual failed experiment. Have you even read my post at all?

I agree, if they do show up it would be stupid and confusing...And chief i think has to die, unless he was in Cryo for a long time, but looking at the legendary ending, i find that hard to believe.

So? It still doesn't mean that Covies will come back. familiar enemies is likely to be Flood and familiar allies would be Forerunners.

To everybody, let me explain about why Covies wont be coming back AT ALL!

It will be no Covenant because it's completely dissipated. Most of San' Shyuum have been killed, and went to hiding. Sangheilis are waging war against Jiralhanaes because Jiralhanaes pissed them off by killing most of Sangheilis in Covenant in sometime after 2 and 3. In sense, Sangheilis are hell bent on wiping out Jiralhanaes and San' Shyumm. Lekgolos (M'galekogo), Yanme'e, Kig-Yars and Unggoys are widely scattered, leaderless and are likely went home.

the brutes might be in it, as they are not "purple" (preferring a grey color scheme), and are still at war, unlike the other races.

I HOPE the UNSC are in it, as halo isnt halo without marines IMO
