So they should be able to just get up and start rebuilding as if nothing happened?
I didn't say that, I just said that I think you're overestimating how long it would take to even have any noticeable recovery. Considering where the UNSC stands I don't think it's too implausible for them to play a big part in the Reclaimer Trilogy. 5-6 years is plenty of time to be on their feet again.
I know he isn't chained there, that said I still find it odd that the UNSC would be able to actually receive a signal that is lightyears away from their colonies and Earth and then response to it in a timely manner. However, if they get it and manage to arrive later on in like Halo 5 or 6, fine. I mean, the Spirit of Fire was closer to UNSC space than Chief was and hat thing is still MIA.
Forerunner technology is lightyears ahead of ours in development, with the speed that their communications travel at it's not at all absurd for the UNSC to receive signals from where the Legendary Planet is. How do we know that its too far away for them to respond in any timely sort of fashion? We don't know where the Legendary Planet even is, for all we know its system could be Sol's next door neighbor.
Of course the SoF is still MIA, it has no way of contacting the UNSC at all and it no longer has FTL travel. And we don't know where they are either, they could be closer than Chief they could farther away, we don't really know.
Going with the left side being the engines. As for my Floody comment, it seems like there is some brownish discoloration on the left. I don't know, it's probably nothing.
Ah, I see, *shrug* I suppose it could look a little browny, it just looks like a different colored metal to me though, or it could just be something to do with the kind of weird artstyle.
...
The Halo Encyclopedia isn't non-canon marketing material Coma, you know that.
No. But Believe is, and being in the Encyclopedia doesn't really change that, considering ILoveBees was in it too.
So the UNSC and Forerunners lose him...again? That doesn't sound like good story telling.
I didn't say they lose him, I just said something could happen that would make the UNSC classify him as MIA again, and there could be any number of factors for that if that happens. Like for instance your idea that Chief gets the imprint of a Forerunner and then goes off with them, or he dies, or he ascends to some sort of higher plain as an eternal guardian or some such. There are any number of reasons to choose from.
I wasn't talking about Believe Coma.
Didn't you, Rag, and Grey get those dates you say Chief can't possibly come back until from information contained or stated in Believe, though?
