Forgive me if there is some obvious reason on why this wouldnt work, but who is to say Captain Cutter does not meet MC.

This is the wrong forum, bro?

This would probably belong in the 343i forums?

Careful bro. Speculating about the UNSC being in Halo 4 around here is like punching a baby in the face.

Though I will say that it is a bit unlikely for the Spirit of Fire to be there due to the fact of how massive space is. It is unlikely that the Spirit of Fire would come to the world that the Master Chef gets sent to after Halo 3. That does not mean that it is not a possibility, but you probably should not get your hopes up.

Yes, but remember how lucky the Chief is. If Halo 4 is going to have any kind of interesting plot, the Chief is going to need weapons to fight enemies. Introducing the Spirit of Fire would provide UNSC weapons that the Chief wouldn't have had access to otherwise. So I think the SoF is a great idea and I hope to see it.

If not in Halo 4 then aty some point later on but i would be very surprised if Halo Wars was the last we saw of them

But the thing is aren't those weapons way out of date?

Walk softly, and carry a big midget.

Frankie said at Comic Con that they won't be continuing the story of the Spirit of Fire at the moment but they might in the future.

Spirit of Fire stuff is fine. What gets the few guys annoyed is saying "3 years after Halo 3 ends the UNSC will be recovered enough to send deep-space exploration teams!"

I do not believe that the time frame that exists between Halo 3 and Halo 4 has ever been specified. If it has and I have missed it then please tell me.

I'll drop the beacon, but it'll be a while before anyone finds us. Years even

It won't be the SoF, 343i said they have no plans for their story atm. But that quote above suggests the possibility another lost ship could find them; it could be the Everest though.

Why would Cole leave his girlfriend, her fleet, and the farming colony they left to make and go to the legendary planet?

When was it confirmed they set up a farming colony? When was anything confirmed about their final destination ever? Other then the speculation of a naval officer?

Talking about lore (story in Halo 4 included) is what this forum was made for.

OT: I doubt it would be in the game. Everyone keeps saying how the Chief needs weapons, yet who says there aren't any weapons on the ship he's on at the end of Halo 3 (I forget what it's called.)

I personally think that the only human will be the Chief. Most likely we're only going to see the Flood and (hopefully) the Forerunners.

I had never thought about the Everest until now. A mysterious distress beacon coming from space far beyond normal UNSC territory. I am sure that Cole would take interest in it, especially if it is a UNSC beacon so close to his current location in which he never anticipated anyone to find him.

If the speculations of The Surgeon are true, of course.

  • 08.30.2011 1:41 PM PDT

So what... he's been traveling all these years and ends up at the legendary planet?

That 'speculation' is the most solid theory of where Cole went.

I don't know why it started being popped up for Halo 4 ideas.

Assuming whereever he ended up was close to the legendary planet. Space is massive.

Granted, it is.

Although it would be unconscionable to assume that the beacon dropped by Cortana was not an FTL beacon. We do not how fast its broadcasts travel through slipspace. It would not be a very good distress beacon if it took decades to traverse space; not worth wasting money on installing considering that it would be useless in that case.

No, the beacon leads Cole to finding the LP and thusly the Chief. We have literally no idea where he is or what he's doing. One guess is as good as the other, with neither being right or wrong. The only thing we know for sure is that three UNSC ships are missing with no clue as to there whereabouts. Sprit, Everest and the Dawn.

We know the Spirit will not be in Halo 4. But what we do know is that the Impossible Life was given massive amounts of screen-time in the book, and was introduced yet left completely ambiguous by the same people who have been setting us up for Halo 4 for awhile, and would like to neatly tie everything together.

Having the Everest in Halo 4 would not contradict anything as we have no clue where they are. Assuming there really is only a three year gap between H3 and H4 (when was that ever stated?) it would explain a UNSC presence and allow for human allies to fight alongside you. It will act as a reminder of what is at stake, and create a bridge between civilization and wherever the Master Chief is. It will explain why we have a constant supply of UNSC weapons. And, most importantly, it will capture the feeling of desperation felt in Halo 1, where it was one ship vs the mysteries of an ancient, alien evil.

Note I was replying to the "A beacon showing up so close to his current location".

I see. It looks like I made the same mistake there as the assumptions that state the Spirit of Fire could find it.

Be that as it may, not knowing the speed of the Beacon's transmissions could make it feasible for Cole to detect it, as he is outside of UNSC space too.

He has a girlfriend? I thought he had a wife, and what do you mean by her fleet?
