Subject: Flood and covenant confirmed for Halo 4!

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Frankie said, "no purple." I wouldn't be surprised if The Flood is in Halo 4, though.

Its gonna be quite a boring game if you lone wolf the entire game with cortana or some weird planet no one knows anything about.

While the covenant wont be in halo 4 as such i think the alians will turn up in halo 4 as part of the story. i mean it wont be halo without some sort of elite, grunt or jackal showing up. Maby all the species from the covenant become independent.

And they all concentrically find this mysterious world Chief is heading towards? That's just bad fanficition.


I really hope the story has more than just those two. Come to think of it, isn't it about time for Stacker to become a major character? Possibly Dubbo? You know, playing support roles?


They aren't in the game.


Really? Can I borrow your time machine?

Again, i am posting here because i cannot post at Halo.xbox.com because i changed my WLID.

Pause the video at 1:45 and there is all the conformation you will need (An official 343 developer saying the flood and covenant are back).

Link

Ummm... Discuss.


That is the most stupidest, idiotic, unreliable, illogical, untrustworthy, fully bull, dumb, and unintelligent theory I have ever seen.

1. The Human Covenant war is over.

2. The flood is extinct.

3. You honestly going to believe what some "follower" said? Yes, some of them are true (links in description), but he does not work for 343i therefore he does not know half of what he's talking about.

4. Also, I checked halo.xbox.com, there's no proof and there and most of what I saw is Halo: Reach stuff.

5. The uploader of that video believes everything on photobucket. Photos on Photobucker are fan-made and not created by 343 Industries, and yet he sounds like a 18-year old Halo fan who doesn't already know that.

No offense.


While I agree it isn't definitive proof yet, you need to calm down and read up on your Halo history. The Flood is not extinct.


Didn't they all die?

"Like water I ebb and flow. Defeat is simply an addition of time, a sentence to a fate I never deserved, but you.....imposed."

-Gravemind's "last" words at the end of Halo 3.

According to him, they'll be back.

Where did it say that?


After retrieving Cortana from the derelict High Charity, SPARTAN-117 was able to kill all Flood present on the Ark and the replacement Installation 04 by first destroying High Charity's reactors, causing a massive explosion and the destruction of the wrecked city, then activating the unfinished Halo using the Index Cortana retained from the first Halo. The ring's activation also presumably killed the Flood along with the Gravemind.

All Flood on the Ark, key word there. And considering it was shown the GM could transfer his consciousness in Halo 3, it's doubtful he's dead.

What the -blam!- does that add? Chief is being sent to the Forerunners, but he magically makes a detour to high five the Arbiter? Come on, that's stupid.
Maybe the Arbiter is looking for him. He doesn't believe John's dead, and the two got in some serious bonding time during the course of Halo 3. That would be a cool side-story methinks, the Arbiter's search for MC or something.

Sadly, it's about CE anniversary, not Halo 4. Lrn2read, fool.

There is no confirmation from 343i about Covenant and UNSC coming back therefore, they won't come back at all.

Folks, it is time to accept that we will have be no covenant or unsc at Halo 4 at all, and we will fight is: Precursors or Flood or new alien species that never seen before.

I still think we can expect at least the UNSC cause they are Humans who are a very important part of the overall storyline.
As for the covies,probably as allies latter on in the story.

Look i don't want to argue about this but you shouldn't throw that possibility out of the window.

For my part: I expect them in some sort of appearance .

Well, there can be no covies and unsc at Halo 4, I wasn't talking about ENTIRE trilogy. I'm fairly sure that they will appear at Halo 5 or 6.

why would the covenant be brought back?? they lost the war, the profits were killed and how would they find master-chief on some distant planet??
it's possible a few covenant can be fought how you may ask.... What if that giant structure houses collected specimens it's possible a covenant patrol or ship was taken and put ito stasus or something and they get realised not nowing the war has been finished..... or we fight something different


That is a bull-blam!-, half-assed, uninspired way to include Covenant in Halo 4.
Calm down....... It's possible though specimens being tested on from throughout the galaxy not half asses quite possible take it like the comic with team black ( I believe thats what their called) how they were captured by the sentinals and so were the covenant now yes they did explode and die but that doesnt mean they can have any escape?...... Now it doesnt matter if there are covenant in halo 4 why? CAUSE THEIR EFFING FUN TO FIGHT THATS WHY!!!!!!!!

Little harsh there.

Even with new trilogy with new characters, new enemies will be included, they also can include old ones as well.

Take a serious chill pill. Just because it is a new trilogy that just so happens to have new characters does not mean that all of the old stuff is automatically excluded and can't appear at all. Don't be so narrow-minded.

It's sad your idea of good story telling involves bringing back an enemy that no longer has a purpose just because they're fun to fight. That is irrelevant. The difference between Chief and Black Team is that this world is not a specimen housing world. Bias wouldn't send Chief to the Forerunners to have him dissected.

Sure, when you can give me your instantaneous coincidental character teleporter.


Right after I see the book you wrote about the apparent bounds which completely fictitious stories must follow, with no room for possibilities.

Proof UNSC will be in the new story: The "Grenade Pistol". This can't be the only human weapon in the game, nor can Chief hang around the Dawn, getting his weapons from it. Where else can he find the weapon? Oh yes, from UNSC-controlled areas.

So much fail...

That weapon was from FuD's armory section. It doesn't prove that UNSC is going to be there at Halo 4.

So because Chief found a UNSC weapon on what was once a UNSC ship means the UNSC are coming back full force? Logic fail.

You're an angry man, do you know that? Maybe you can try to be open to speculation instead of railing on like-minded fans just because you think that you know what direction Halo 4 is taking and what the story will be.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize the majority of the fanbase wants to turn Halo into a Michael Bay production where story is sacrificed for things that are just "cool".
