Its gud

After thinking about these for a while I thought I might post some (for lack of a better word ) theories.

1 UNSC will almost definitely be in the game.
why?
Without some form of human ally some human vehicles will be useless. ie: Warthog with no gunner.

2 I don't think that we will be fighting forerunners in this game.
Why?
Forerunners created the halo array and sacrificed themselves to prevent the flood from wiping out the galaxy. Why would they want to kill us now? (I haven't read the new books so I might be missing out on some info here.)

3 The "dark new enemy will probably be related to the forerunners or covenant in some way.
why?
If the new enemy was completely new then all the multiplayer weapons will be changed. This would mean having to learn new tactics for hundred of fans. Not something 343 would do.

Please expand on these or prove to me why they are false.

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

1. So Forerunners can't be allies?
2. Probably not,
3. Yes, the Ancient Enemy is the Timeless One, aka Gravemind, although probably less Floody.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Explain how humanity, confirmed to be focusing mainly on rebuilding after the war, will manage to leave the Orion Arm and conveniently find the Legendary Planet?

So stupid...

You don't understand how the war works and how it affects the nation.

to answer your questions:

1.)Forerunners would be our allies instead of UNSC. By the way, UNSC at halo 4 does not make sense, despite you may argue its for game play reasons but 343i can make new weapons, new levels, etc.

2.)No. John was sent to Forerunners by Mendicants Bias to prove for his atonement which it suggests that John will likely to ally with Forerunners.

3.)Have you bothered to read Cryptum? Ancient Enemy IS NOT COVENANT. Are you that stupid? Covenant was destroyed. Flood is subdued for now. It's more likely it's Precursor or Timeless One.

you are a good translator
Idiot can be a hard language to learn, but once you get it down, everything becomes so clear! The whole world will make sense to you.

Key Line Installations can shoot ships out of slipspace so it's possible a Human or Elite ships can get warped to the Forerunner planet, which appears to have a galactic trash compactor inside of it filled with dead ships.

And what indicates this is a Line Installation? Especially one outside the Orion Arm?

I never thought I'd ever see someone take "giant magnet" seriously. I mean really?

Why so serious?


1) And the Forerunners would hilariously outclass us in every way, making our role reduntant. And have you ever heard of the Everest?

2) As an ally, yes. The ally? Not necessarily.

3) He quite clearly says he didn't. Again, why so serious? And the Flood will likely be the enemy, being lead by the Timeless One.

Sorry, hard to detect the jokes on INTERNET.

1.) Again, Do i have to explain about Everest to you? Cole purposefully jumped from gaseous planet because he was planning to settle down on new colony to start his farming life. He wanted to be a farmer. So it isn't possible for him to come to Halo 4...

2.) Forerunners will be ally because it's heavily hinted at!

3.)I know that, bub. Like I said, precursors AND the flood are likely ancient enemies...

Besides, I didn't say a word of "completely", ROBERT. I said it was subdued for now. Do you not understand what I did said? Let me simplify it for you. It means that it hasn't been destroyed completely, it only delayed the flood.
