Subject: When will Halo 4 take place?

I assume it is not long after the events of Halo 3... just because of the AI rampancy issue.

If it is 2556 for Halo 4 then it wouldn't make any sense for UNSC to be at Halo 4 anyways.

There's -blam!-loads of good reasons why UNSC wouldn't be at Halo 4...

If THEY DO include UNSC at Halo 4 then I will know that storyline is rehashed and probably will be terrible. 343i's skill at story telling is determined by Halo 4 so it probably will be bad. So, if they did include UNSC in it then I'm not buying that game for bad storyline.

Don't start the flame war, you know well enough. There is plenty of reasons and evidence suggesting that UNSC won't be recovering that quickly. Nor being at Halo 4 as well.

That means if the UNSC are involved, they somehow managed to overcome 30+ years of infrastructure damage, billions dead and the threat of the insurrection coming back in a span of 3 or more years.

Wat.


OP: "When does Halo 4 take place?"

You: :How the heck should we know?"

YOu a bit later: "That means if the UNSC are involved, they somehow managed to overcome 30+ years of infrastructure damage, billions dead and the threat of the insurrection coming back in a span of 3 or more years.

Wat"

Contradiction. We don't know when you cant say jack on anything to do with a when. In the time between games, the unsc could've recvered sufficiently.

Not quite... especially with 20+ years war with genocidal Covenant.

We'll learn more about it in Glasslands.

Use your logical thinking about this. In any nation that went war against other nation for more than 20 years, do you seriously think that other nation can RECOVER in few years? I think not.

Halo 4 takes place a few (3-4) years after Halo 3 This should go in the OP...

A better comparison would be if the US was in a war for 20 years, and received extensive damage throughout the states, recovery in a quick time is foolish.

This! Thanks for better comparison.

"Flag: It's right next to the headlight fluid"

I actually have to agree. I don't know why you're being flamed, but the UNSC should definitely not be in Halo 4. I'd appreciate something more lone wolf. I definitely DO NOT want to meet two new factions and join a side and make all these new friends...that's just too choppy and corny in the story line. Now if there was a new faction (or an old one revisited) that we have to fight, reasonably alone, I'd be more interested.

I am the best thing that ever happened to you

Thousands of years after the human covenant war. All intelligent lifeforms have been plunged back into the stone age and dinosaurs roam the galaxy. Chief must face off against a tribe of super evolved bat people piloting a lone forerunner vessel in order to save the galaxy and permit humanity to once again advance to modern technology.

Frankie himself said they have 10 years of the canon mapped out and Halo 4 is set a few years after Halo 3. So it's between 2556-2562, probably between those two times I would guess.

Still a pretty small timeframe to recover.

Provided 343i have a good excuse for the UNSC presence in H4 (which they will do IMO as they aren't fools) I can accept it.


The only excuse I can see them make is "We unlocked the secret's of Forerunner technology." which is the easy way out and rather uninspired storytellng wise.

You do know that Halo 4 is both a prequel and a sequel right? Just wondering...

I've heard something like that, but I'm fuzzy on sources. Have a link I can refresh myself with?
